We liked the tour. the guide (peter kim) was really good. He explained about Jeju and the history. During the tour and at the end of the tour he made many recommendations related to which food to eat where drinks, desserts etc. he was always doing jokes and made the trip really enjoyable. The itinerary was not that good. we spent almost one hour in the beach which was the last stop but there was nothing to do there. not even enough time for to take a swim. anyways you will enjoy. Just bring an extra t-shirt if you travel in July because the way up to the volcano with 30 degrees will make you sweat A LOT! (a lot really people were buying water like it was the Sahara)

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.

Good tour to cover South and West of Jeju in a day. Cheonjeyeon Waterfall, Daepo Jasungjeolli Cliff are amazing to visit.

Overall, 10/10 would recommend if you’re new to Jeju! Tour guide was fantastic and the bus is quite nice. Every stop had a bit of a historical explanation before we had free time to explore, which was very insightful! Thankfully, our itinerary had the more outdoorsy items in the morning when it was not too hot - and the more indoor stuff in the afternoon when the sun was strong.
