Family cruise excursion - Our driver accompanied us for a whole day, suggesting the main places to visit and also acting as a mini guide at the various points. He accompanied us to a typical place for lunch, frequented by local people, which we really appreciated. He also took lots of photos of us throughout the day, which he then sent to us. He took care of all the entrance tickets that were required and was also available to extend the end time of the tour, since our ship's departure had been postponed.

Perfect tour - highly recommend! - My husband and I stayed in Seogwipo and were only in Jeju for 2 nights. We wanted to do some sightseeing and didn’t rent a car, so this was the perfect option for us. We did a half day private tour with Chae HeeSeung (John) and it was an amazing experience! HeeSeung was also so kind to take so many wonderful pictures for us!! He was like our own photographer for the tour and we feel so grateful to have these memories captured for us through these pictures. Thanks for the wonderful experience! Highly recommend!
