The tour guide was very responsible. While giving a detailed tour, he also kept the flexibility of the journey and took care of the situation of each member. It was great to be able to visit the eastern region at once during the journey planning. Unfortunately, Manjang Grotto was temporarily closed, which was a pity. In addition, it is recommended to adjust the climbing time to avoid the risk of heat stroke 😂

Tour guide Elin is very professional, lively and concerned about whether you need to take photos. If you don't want to go with everyone, you can also give participants free time to explore the attractions. She will also explain the scope in advance. She is a trustworthy and easy-going tour guide.

Zin, our tour guide was very friendly. He ensures that no one is left behind. The itinerary was followed althought the weather was a bit unfavorable as it was extremely humid but all in all, this was a great tour to explore Jeju. Thank you Zin and Yeha tours!

My wife and I engaged Yeha Tour for SouthWest and Hallasan Jeju Guide Tour and our tour guide Elin was amazing!! She is super cheerful and has a positive disposition which made our trip really memorable. She took care of all of us well, is very knowledgeable about Jeju and we learnt so much from her. She takes great pictures too and speaks good English. The trip is not packed and manageable. She brought us to view Jusangjeolli lava cliff which is a UNESCO site. It was beautiful.

Elin(with her signature red cap), our tour guide, was really nice and very knowledgeable about Jeju. She kept the tour well-organized, on-time, informative and fun. I am joing another tour the next day and was hoping she’s still my tour guide but unfortunately it was her day-off (which she deserve). Hopefully, i’ll get to be part of her tour again…Thanks Elin…you’re the best🫰

I joined a private tour today — and it ended up being a truly private one, just me and my guide, June! June was incredibly kind, fun, and full of great energy. We had such a great time chatting, especially about BTS (ARMY moments everywhere 💜), and she shared so much insightful information about Jeju throughout the tour. I felt so comfortable the whole day, like hanging out with a friend who knows all the best local secrets. If you’re looking for a meaningful and relaxed way to explore Jeju, I highly recommend this tour — and ask for June if you can!
