A new Seoul City Tour Bus debuted this week with a single deck and half open top.
This adds to the existing three types of sightseeing buses operated for tours of the capital city: a fully open top double-decker bus, a normal single-decker bus and a trolley bus.

Half of the back portion of the new vehicle is equipped with windows that can be removed and a foldable top, so that it can flexibly respond to weather conditions, explained the city tour bus operator Honeymoon Travel.
The front half, with 25 seats, is enclosed. The bus can carry up to 47 passengers.
