So far i could not withdraw money with my ambank atm card lol.. Could not find an atm that supports meps yet.. Cause my ambank card only has meps feature and nothing else, but i'm able to withdraw with my maybank and cimb debit card

Hi , I plan to go jisan ski resort on my own but am not so clear on the rental.

Basically I want a simple SKI experience with my gf, is SKI CLOTHING compulsory? What if we're wearing our own winter clothing?
Can i have the breakdown of cost for Gear rental all those?

Thank you for your reply !

If go by yourself can save cost but need to do lot of itinerary planning. As for tour schedule time might be tight n rush. Depend what package tour u take. For me I prefer free easy cuz can visit some place which tour guide didn't go. Btw, my first time to korea also free m easy u can refer my itinerary smile.gif
