Great experience! We loved our tour with Elin!!! Elin is personable, funny, and kind. One of the best tours we’ve ever done. We enjoyed each moment whether on the bus when Elin kept us entertained or seeing the sights. We had enough time to see each sight without feeling rushed. 100% recommend!!!

Elin Ho is the most caring and funny tour guide that I have ever had. She went above and beyond to accommodate everyone while making sure our tour is on time. She knows inside out of the tour and guided us to the best spot for the women diver show while giving the sitting spots to the kids and elderly which the Korean culture emphasizes. While we’re waiting for the performance to begin under the blazing sun, she offered us her umbrella to stay cool which we greatly appreciated. She showed her love for jeju and encouraged us to cheer on the performers.
1. The itinerary is great. Lots of things to see and experience. Beautiful shoreline to dwell in along with historical exposure of the local ancient history. Worth the time and money
2. Elin Ho’s friendly and funny personalities make the trip very entertaining and enjoyable. We love every bit of it. We love Mama Jeju

Great experience with Jay, our energetic tour guide, and he provided lots of information about Jeju Island! Mr Kim, our driver, did a wonderful & safe drive during the whole tour.

This was a fantastic and well-managed tour. Jeju Mama (Elin) was fantastic, enthusiastic and ensured that everyone was kept well informed at all times. The company and guides use Whatsapp extensively to provide full information and make sure you make all your meetups on time. The highlights were definitely the Seongeup Folk Village, Seongsan Ilchulbong and the Manjanggul Lava Tube. The coach has plenty of space if you want to take luggage with you; airport pick up (to start the tour) and drop off (after the end of the tour) is possible.

Clara was our guide for a full‑day tour of Jeju’s east side ofvthe island. She was organised, knowledgeable, and genuinely friendly throughout the day. We visited around 6 locations, and the highlight for me was the lava cave unlike anything I’ve ever seen and absolutely a must‑visit. At every stop, Clara shared stories and background that helped us understand the history and meaning of each place. I appreciated how the tour removed the hassle of renting a car and made it effortless to see all the key sights in one day. The day didn’t feel long at all. During lunch, she made everything smooth and convenient for everyone and was always accommodating. Overall, it was an excellent experience and I’d highly recommend it.
Response from Host, Jun 2026
Thanks for the wonderful review! We're so glad the tour made exploring the east side effortless and that the lava cave was a highlight for you.

We truly appreciate your high recommendation and hope to welcome you back to Jeju!
