Review of Yeha’s $43 East Jeju bus tour, covering lava caves, Seongeup, Seongsan Ilchulbong, haenyeo, beaches, and practical tips.
“Elin was an amazing, enthusiastic and knowledgeable your guide. I had a great time with her and thoroughly enjoyed the tour. Would recommend this tour to anyone visiting Jeju Island!”
Explore Jeju’s southwest by bus, with Hallasan views, waterfalls, lava cliffs, tea fields, Songaksan, Bomunsa Temple, and entry fees included.
“We had an unforgettable trip with Elin. She is such an amazing and caring guide. We were lucky to have a small group, just about a dozen people on a minibus (on busier days you can expect to be a part of a larger group on a regular tour bus), so we enjoyed a more intimate experience. Elin really goes above and beyond to make sure everyone is taken care of. Not only was she fun and informative, but she supplied us with complimentary cold drinking water throughout the day, fed us local sweets, offered sun umbrellas to those in need, and we even got to win some tiny Jeju…”
Review of Seoul’s Palace Course bus, including stops, audio guide, value, common problems, timing, and tips for a smoother visit.
“It wasn’t easy to spot the bus stop, it’s on the opposite side from Myron’s dong street. Waited for 30 minutes and no bus showed up so I ended up taking public transport to the palace. I wasted the money on the ticket as it’s issued for a specific date, so can’t use it the next day. I do not recommend”

“Our guide Peter was really good. Very knowledgeable, funny and kind. We learned a lot about Jeju island and the different places we visited from him. Unfortunately we couldn't hike at Hallasan due to snow, but at least we were lucky enough to get up to 1000 m with the bus and breathe the fresh air up there. All the stops were really interesting and our guide really made our day by pointing out the best spots for photos and taking pictures for us. Each stop had a reasonable time set for it so it didn't feel too rushed or too slow.”

Review of Jeju’s west-coast bus tour from Seogwipo, covering Camellia Hill, green tea fields, beaches, windmills, and Sanbangsan.
“We spent wonderful day in the company of a precious guide. Jeju Island is quite large, so it is difficult to see it in such detail on your own, but we managed to do so thanks to the guide. We looked at the western part of the island. We walked in the green tea fields, walked along the embankment, looked at the windmills up close and looked for dolphins. Unfortunately, they did not want to show themselves to us, but it was still fun. At the end, we climbed Mount Sanbaksan and visited the temple in the mountain. The guide told us a lot of new and interesting things and…”
