夏日首爾漢江獨木舟完美體驗！ - Zooty Club Kayaking 本次在漢江進行的kayaking活動是由Zooty Club 的Koa先生所帶領。下訂後的通知函即提供他的聯絡方式(WhatsApp)，不用擔心無法聯繫或是提問問題，Koa先生也會提供活動相關資訊。 Koa先生是一位非常細心的教練，從入店、換裝（有鑰匙的置物櫃）、領取設備（槳、安全背心、手機防水套）、下水都非常輕鬆自然，對於從來沒有進行過水上活動的我，也不會感到緊張。Koa先生的英文非常流利，解釋也很清晰清楚，本來很擔心下水後會不會翻船，但Koa給予非常明確的指示，例如當浪大的時候讓自身穩定的方式（透過將槳插入水中），Koa先生用很有趣的比喻，槳就是第三隻腳，一聽就理解，實際上操作的感受也是如此，確實非常穩定。 活動進行時，Koa先生請我先試滑到靠近岸邊不遠的氣球邊，等他覺得合適的時候，再繼續往前，後來我順利靠自己一個人渡過了漢江到另一側，並沿途欣賞了樂天塔與漢江的美景。這途中，Koa先生還會開小艇來關心你的操作狀況，並使用非常專業的相機拍照捕捉身影（在活動預訂說明並沒有提供這項服務，所以打從心底非常感激Koa先生所提供專業且好看的照片，可以作為回憶的一大亮點）。 一個人在漢江上划船是很舒適的，6月初的夏日雖然太陽很大，但做好防曬後，其實江上的風非常涼快，播著喜愛的音樂，隨著平緩的波浪前進，心情從來沒有這麽放鬆過，2個小時的課程，漢江兩側來回還非常足夠，甚至可以在中心點停留放鬆，完全不用擔心。 要上岸時，Zooty Club的工作人員也會協助安全上岸，淋浴間有熱水，空間很寬敞，也有吹風機，完全不用擔心上岸後的清洗狀況。 從地鐵站經過公園走路約15-20分鐘，會經過兩間CU超商，可以買些吃的喝的準備。沿途太陽非常大，也可以走林蔭小徑，快到底的時候可以看到25號Zooty Club非常明顯好找。 整體而言，我非常滿意本次的活動體驗，有來首爾的我一定會再回來，並向Koa先生學習其他的水上活動，非常推薦給所有想要體驗水上活動的人來參加！ This Kayaking activity on the Han river is operated by the Zooty club and Mr. Koa. There is Koa’s contact information in the confirmation letter after the reservation is confirmed. Thus, I am not worried about the way to connect and asking questions. Mr. Koa will also provide the detailed information for reference. Mr. Koa is a great coach with thoughtful heart. From arriving to the store, getting changed(with locker), taking the equipment(paddle, safety vest, cellphone water-proof protector) to going down to the river, the whole process was comfortable. For people like me who don’t have any experience before, there’s no pressure at all. Mr. Koa spoke in English fluently, and he provided very clear instructions. I was worried about falling down to the water, but Mr. Koa explained clearly. For example, when the waves come, you can simply use the paddle and stick it into the water as a third leg in water. I understand it immediately with this interesting explanation. When I was on the river and encountered a middle level wave, I used the skill and it actually worked! In the beginning of the class, Mr. Koa asked me to sail to the ballon near the dock. As long as he thinks I am okay, then I can go further. I made it to the other side of Han river by myself while enjoying the magnificent views of Lotte Seoul Tower and the Han river. During the class, Mr. Koa drove his small ship to check everything is great and took professional photos for memory. (It is not stated in the booking site, so I am really grateful for Mr. Koa’s generosity. The photos are really great! Sailing alone on the Han river is comfortable. Although it’s very hot in June in Seoul , it is actually comfortable and breezing on the river. (Make sure to bring the sun glasses and sun block) I played my favorite songs and just relaxed on my boat. Never felt this great before. The two hours class is enough for the round trip, I even stayed in the middle of the Han river for a while. After the class, staffs from the Zooty club helped me to get back to the land safely. There is hot water inside the bathroom. The bathroom is wide and provided with the hair dryer. From the subway to the Zooty club all the way through the park, it took me 15-20mins on feet. There are two CU convenient stores on the way, I bought some snacks and drinks. The Zooty club is No.25, and it is very easy to find it. Over all, I am satisfied with this class. I definitely will come back to the club as long as I visit Seoul. I fully recommend this activity with Mr.Koa to the people who are interested in water activities in Seoul.

Kayaking/sup on the Han river! - My family was visiting Korea for the first time and wanted to try something different. This was my first time doing any water sports on the Han river. The location is amazing with beautiful views. Koa was super welcoming and funny while getting us set up for kayaking. He got some great photos of us on the river in our kayaks. I strongly recommend booking with him!

Kayaking at the Han river - We had a really good time. Even though we never did kayaking before, it was easy and super fun. Koa was very welcoming and he did a great job explaining how to use the kayaks and the paddles. Would strongly recommend!

A must-do activity! - Koa is delicate and meticulous. He pre-empt us on the rainy weather for our selected slot, made suggestions and accommodated our schedule. He even went out of the way to take photo for us on a speed boat when we were far out of the water. 10/10 for the service and fun!

Good memories - Enjoyed sunset kayaking so much! It is an incredible feeling of peace in the middle of a Han River away from the fast pace city streets. And thanks Koa for amazing pictures! We are definitely coming back to try out other water activities!

I'll definitely be back to book more lessons with Koa! - I had reached out to Koa prior to arriving in Korea via WhatsApp for more info and travel tips...he was super responsive, easy-going, and eager to help make my stay in Korea an adventurous one! He even helped connect me with another instructor I was interested in taking pump foil lessons with and gave me tips regarding local hikes with city views better than Namsan Tower's. I ended up taking two lessons with Koa, one for windsurfing and another for e-foiling. I had an absolute blast! He regularly checks the wind and water conditions, promptly updating you if there are any changes. He is very patient and takes time to teach you all the concepts you need to understand in order to be up and riding out on the water. I appreciated that he always kept a close eye on me by riding alongside in his motor boat and took photos/videos for me to enjoy. I highly recommend that you book any water excursions or local tours with Koa if you are in Seoul!

Magical Experience - Koa thank you so much!! You are such a great experience leader and so lovely! We had the most magical and incredible experience at the Han River, and Koa was incredibly patient and kind. Thank you for such a wonderful memory.

One of my favourite guides in Seoul! - Koa is so kind, friendly, patient, and knowledgeable. He is a great host. He is fast to respond and easy to communicate with. The equipment is in good condition and it was relaxing by the Han River, good vibes. I had a fun time windsurfing thanks to him. I’m looking forward to going again soon!

10/10 - I would gladly rate my paddle boarding experience a perfect 10/10! My instructor, Koa, was not only skilled but also boasted a fantastic personality that made learning both easy and enjoyable. His patience was particularly appreciated as I navigated the learning curve. The panoramic views from the paddle board were truly breathtaking—a picturesque scene that added so much to the overall experience. Beyond just guiding me on the water, Koa also provided some top-notch local dining recommendations. Following his advice led us to a dinner that was nothing short of spectacular. Whether you're a seasoned paddler or a beginner, this experience comes highly recommended for anyone looking for a blend of adventure, scenic beauty, and local flavors.

My South Korea 2024 visit. - The kayak 2 hours session was great. The river is the best place to go for kayak without needing to go out of Seoul.. Koa met us on time and gave good tutor (quickly because he is busy). I will do it again when I’m visiting Seoul. Recommend it kayak lover. And try to find Koa👍🏼
