The entire village, which preserves the living site of the people of old Jeju, has been designated as an Important Folklore Cultural Heritage. Though it can be considered a folk village of sorts, it differs from regular folk villages in that people still live in it to this day. The village residents act as volunteer guides to offer visitors all sorts of information. The Saw-leaf Zelkova and Japanese hackberry in the center of the village are worth taking time to see.

Fabios tour was absolutely brilliant - pick up and drop off to our hotel in the South of the island - the grand sumoram - mentioning as I believe he is the only tour guide offering pick up and drop off here, and it really makes a huge difference! Covered so much ground, and saw so much more than we would have exploring on our own. He adapted the tour timings to fit the weather to ensure we got the best experience at each stop. Would definitely do another tour with him if we ever get to come back to Jeju for another visit. Fab day, and you should book!
Despite the morning rain, my tour with guide Fabio went ahead and we ended up having a great day exploring east side of Jeju island. The group has 3 participants so it was very nice and relaxing. We visited all the places on planned itinerary with sequence changed to accommodate changing weather condition. Fabio was a very good tour guide and driver. He explained the itinerary very clearly and allowed plenty time at each location for us to explore. I really appreciate his quiet and calm demeanor and in depth knowledge and explanation. This was one of the most enjoyable tours I have the 3 weeks in South Korea. I highly recommend Fabio’s tour to all visitors staying in Seogwipo in beautiful Jeju island.
I loved this tour for so many reasons, but the biggest reason is Fabio, our wonderful tour guide. Jeju is of course beautiful (and he took us to so many beautiful places!), but what really set apart this tour is that Fabio took us beyond just the scenery. I learned so much about Jeju and its history, as well as its special traditions, from Fabio, and his passion and enthusiasm was infectious. (He also had great restaurant recommendations!) I feel so lucky that I got to see Jeju with Fabio showing the way—and I feel so lucky that I got to meet him too.
Fabio was very friendly and informative- great experience overt
The tour was exceptional, filled with the history and culture of Jeju Island. Our guide Mr. Fabio was fabulous. He explained the history so well, with anecdotal incidents that helped us understand how Jeju was shaped to what it is today. An amazing tour. We highly recommend Fabio's tour.
It was a fantastic trip with a nice group and a fabulous guide, Fabio. He showed us wonderful places on the eastern side of Jeju. He is a kind, knowledgeable and funny person who shared many interesting stories about the land along the way. There wasn’t a single dull moment. Thank you Fabio for a wonderful day and keep up the good work!
We had an amazing time on this tour and I learned so much about Jeju history and culture. Fabio designed a thoughtful, educational, and immersive experience. We got to witness haenyeo in action and saw many gorgeous sites across Jeju. I’m very grateful that Fabio led a tour for the Seogwipo area because it was difficult to find one that wasn’t based out of Jeju City. He picked us up promptly from pre-designated areas, communicated with us clearly about when to meet at checkpoints, and dropped everyone off at their hotels/stays. He’s patient and knowledgeable and made this experience an unforgettable one.
Fabio was a wonderful tour guide, with an incredible knowledge, lovely stories, kindness and a lot of humour. The tour was perfect and I would highly recommend it.
Fabio was a perfect tour guide. His communication was excellent giving information before, during and after the tour. He messaged us before the tour to provide details of what we’d be doing and where he would pick us up. His vehicle was super comfortable and had all the modern comforts including heated seats. He added some additional stops as the Cave was closed for renovation. We were able to catch the end of the canola festival flowers and have dome amazing pictures of the bright yellow fields with the cherry blossoms lined roads. He also walked with us up the long trail on top of sunrise peak and took some lovely pictures of us at the summit. As we did the summit walk so quickly he made sure we had the best spot to watch the women divers performance. He sent us a few recommendations for places to eat and the one we settled on was perfect! Fabio made our day really special with all the information and care he gave throughout the tour. We highly recommend booking with him.
Fabio, is such an amazing tour guide. He is so knowledgeable, friendly, accommodating, generous and most of all compassionate about his job. Our family of 4 have a wonderful experience. The itineraries were well planned out. We will definitely choose Fabio for our future trips to Jeju Island. We strongly recommend this tour!
