Rental
Cars There are several rental car companies at the airport conveniently located near passenger arrival terminals. Usually, it costs 50,000 to 70,000 South Korean Won per day to rent a small car, 70,000 to 90,000 South Korean Won for a mid-sized car, 120,000 to 270,000 for a deluxe car and 90,000 to100,000 for a van (April, 2002 rough estimates). There will be an additional fee of 5,000 to 10,000 South Korean Won per hour when using a chauffeur. Make sure you check out the insurance status of the car you rent. We also recommend that you determine ahead of time the location of the gas station nearest your destination or the place you are staying. You can reserve a rental car on-line with most rental car shops in Korea. To rent a car, you will need your international driver's license, your ID or passport and your national driver's license. Watch out for fake international drivers licenses being sold on the Internet as they'll get you in trouble overseas. International drivers licenses can be obtained in the USA at most AAA Travel locations and in Seoul at a number of locations. Ask any police station in Seoul.

Buses are a great a scenic way to get around Seoul. Although many are in Korean, more and more buses are using bilingual banners announcing major stops. | |||||||||
