Metro, bus, railway, taxi and car services

Seoul has an efficient metro transport system which interlinks the districts in the city. There are nine lines which serve the Seoul city and its suburbs. The other links which are part of the rapid transit system, connect Seoul with Incheon and the major cities in the Gangnam province. The locals widely use the metro, and in rush hours it might get crowded, so it’s best to avoid it during those hours, if possible.

Buses in Seoul are colour coded and based on that you can recognise which type you need to take. For tourists, the Yellow buses are most useful as they run in downtown Seoul, connecting the major tourist, business and shopping areas. The Red ones are express buses for commuters, while the blue buses connect the suburbs to the Seoul city centre. The Green buses circulate only within one district area.

There are two types of taxis in Seoul: regular and deluxe. The weekly South Korea taxi service is charged by the meter, and they increase the price for late-night rides. As the name suggests, the expensive taxis in Seoul offer higher standards and unified tariff. This taxi service is mainly used by businessmen who are rushing to get from one place to another.
