Today I took a one-day tour to the southern part of Jeju Island with Shuxuan as my guide. I was really impressed by the tour, which included the UNESCO World Heritage sites of Jeju Island, such as Hallasan Mountain, the Columnar Jeolli Belt, and the O'Sulloc Green Tea Garden. Shuxuan is a very professional and enthusiastic tour guide. From the beginning to the end of the tour, she showed her rich knowledge and meticulous service. We had both elderly people and children on the bus, and Shuxuan was able to be patient and caring according to everyone's needs. She was very considerate, whether it was explaining the history of the attractions, helping the elderly get on and off the bus, or even caring about the safety of the children. This trip not only made me understand more about the natural beauty of Jeju Island, but also felt the care and professionalism of the tour guide. It was a very pleasant and memorable experience. I highly recommend everyone to join the southern Jeju Island tour led by Shuxuan! Friends who are still hesitating, hurry up and make an appointment.

I took a day trip to the southern part of Jeju Island this time, and we were accompanied by an excellent tour guide, Seo Hyun! She was not only professional, but also passionate, and made the day extra special with her humor and attentiveness. The tour started at Hallasan Mountain, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, where the scenery was so beautiful that I forgot to take photos (luckily Seo Hyun helped to remedy the situation!). Then, we went to several must-see southern attractions, such as spectacular waterfalls and beautiful green tea fields, each of which was as beautiful as a picture. The best part was that all entrance fees for this trip were included in the price, so there was no extra money to pay, which was really worth it! Don't hesitate, it's a great day trip! Of course, the most impressive thing for me was Seo Hyun. Not only was she knowledgeable and able to tell the history and fun facts of the attractions vividly and interestingly, but she was also very good at mobilizing the atmosphere. She would make everyone laugh with humorous little jokes and would take care of every tourist on the bus. Her attentiveness made us feel particularly at ease, and even felt that the day passed too quickly and wished we could stay longer! And she always followed us to take beautiful photos. Her photography skills are great, leaving me with photos of my life. In short, this was a fulfilling and interesting trip, with unforgettable scenery and human touch. If you also want to come to Jeju Island, don't miss the one-day tour to the south led by Seo Hyun, she will make your trip more perfect!

We visited Western and Southern Jeju with Mr.Kim as our guide! The tour itself was full of wonderful places and breathtaking views, yet totally relaxing. We enjoyed nature at a comfortable pace. Also Mr.Kim’s mini-lectures on Korean (and Jeju specifically) history were very atmospheric, especially with a beautiful view of Jeju as a backdrop. Thanks to Mr.Kim for his care and humor!!

Great tour, it is well organised and Jina our tour guide was wonderful. Jina was engaging, informative and gave details to each place visited followed by some JeJu Island fairytales. I would highly recommend.

I had a fantastic 2 days experience with Lisa on our recent first Jeju tour! She was incredibly knowledgeable and passionate, sharing interesting historical and cultural insights that brought the area to life. Lisa created a friendly atmosphere, which made the experience more enjoyable. The tour was organized, balancing information with exploration and allowing time for photos. I recommend the tour for anyone who wanting to explore Jeju.
