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.

I had a fantastic day exploring the southern and western parts of Jeju Island. The landscapes were absolutely breathtaking — from dramatic coastlines to lush greenery, every stop was picture-perfect. Our guide, Hays, was incredibly kind, friendly, and always willing to help, which made the experience even more enjoyable. The tour was well-organized, and I felt like I got to see a great variety of what Jeju has to offer. Highly recommended for anyone visiting the island!
