Itinerary
From pick up to Seongsan ilchulbong 1 hour Seongsan Ilchulbong Tuff Cone, a landmark attraction of Jeju, was formed about 5,000 years ago from an eruption of magma on the ocean floor. It is especially famous as a sunrise viewing spot, known to be one of the top ten exquisite sceneries of Jeju Island.Besides viewing the sunrise, Seongsan Ilchulbong Tuff Cone is also known to be an excellent trekking spot. The Seongsan-Ojo Trail connects two villages by crossing the peak. Another popular trail, the Jijil Trail, offers a closer look at the UNESCO-designated geopark as well as Jeju’s local culture. Walking along one of these paths is recommended to really experience the area; walking all the way to the summit offers views of both the vast volcanic crater in the center and the blue ocean surrounding the area. To complete your trip, head to Seongsanpo Port to watch haenyeo (female divers) at work.
월정리 해변(Woljeong-ri Beach) Well known for its beautiful scenery, white sand and emerald water, Jeju Woljeong-ri Beach has a road filled with tea houses and coffee shops. This is a great stopover during your trip to Jeju Island, and one of few places to enjoy an exotic view.
섭지코지(Seopjikoji) A short drive from Seongsan Ilchulbong Peak will take you to Cape Seopjikoji. The name comes from the Jeju dialect for a “Cape of Small Land” due to its peculiar cliff formation that protrudes into the ocean. The picturesque harmony of the hill and ocean attract tourists all year round. You might even be able to sight Jeju ponies grazing on the field of grass.Walking northeast along the cliff, you will arrive at Bulgeunoreum Parasitic Cone, offering an exquisite view of a white lighthouse with the dark blue sea in the background. Additional noteworthy attractions of Cape Seopjikoji are the Glasshouse and Yumin Art Gallery, two masterpieces designed by world-renowned architect Ando Tadao. The two buildings blend in remarkably well with the surrounding nature.
해녀박물관 Jeju haenyeo are the strong mothers of Jeju and the spiritual pillars of Jeju residents. Also, the life of the Jeju haenyeo community is a model that humanity should aim for. Jeju haenyeo formed a merit-based community and democratically decided through discussions. She not only cared for the elderly and infirm, such as Halmang Badang and Geseok, and raised funds with her material profits to contribute to society, such as villages and schools. She also came up with various contraptions to coexist with the sea, such as beach sweeping, gold snatching, and dialysis. Jeju haenyeo culture was recognized for its value and was registered as a UNESCO Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity on November 30, 2016 (local time).

I was so impressed with my driver Chibeom who was very patient with me. He took me to some interesting places and the weather was perfect. His English was really good so we were able to communicate very well. He took to an interesting place for lunch and ate cold noodles which was delicious. I would recommend this tour to anyone visiting Jeju Island.

Had the best time exploring Jeju Island with Mr. Hyun Woo Lee as my guide. He was super friendly, easy to talk to, and really knew his way around the island. From stunning beaches to cozy hidden spots, he made sure I saw the best of Jeju without ever feeling rushed. He shared fun stories, local tips, and even helped take some great photos. The whole day felt effortless and enjoyable. Jeju is amazing on its own, but having Mr. Lee as a guide made it unforgettable. Highly recommend!

Had a lovely tour around Jeju Island and couldn’t have asked for a better experience. The taxi driver, Mr Anh, was incredibly sweet, helpful, and made the whole day feel relaxed and enjoyable. He took his time to show the best spots, helped with photos, and even shared local tips along the way. Jeju is beautiful on its own, but having such a kind driver really made the trip extra special. Highly recommend exploring Jeju this way if you want a more personal and comfortable tour.
