Plan my trip Image Image Day 1-2Jeju Island Highlights: Spend the day with a local guide exploring Jeju’s natural wonders, including Cheonjiyeon waterfall, and the basalt stacks of Jusangjeolli Take in the seascape views from the stunning crater of Sunrise Peak If you're lucky, catch sight of the haenyo, Korea’s free-diving “sea women”Day one's all about picking up your rental car and checking into your hotel – but day two is when your island exploration will begin in earnest, with a private guided tour of the island’s amazing natural wonders. Yongduam, or “Dragon’s Head Rock”, forms a morning appetiser in Jeju City, though far more spectacular is the “Sunrise Peak” near Samseong. It’s like a steep-walled castle built by nature alone, and the sea and crater views from the top (yep, there’s a volcanic crater up here!) are breath-taking. Then, it’s down to the south coast to relax by a parkside waterfall, see a seaside clutch of honeycomb-like basalt pillars, and hike the dramatic cliffside pathway of the Yongmeori Coast.

You’ll pick up a rental car at the airport, from which it’s rarely much more than an hour’s drive to anywhere on the island. Jeju's roads are all well connected, and typically do not see much in the way of heavy traffic. Day 3-4Jeju Island Highlights: Try the regional speciality – a barbecue of Jeju’s famous “black-pig” pork Hike Hallasan, an extinct volcano, to the highest point in the country Relax on one of Jeju’s many secluded beachesThe rest of your Jeju island stay will be at leisure. We’ll be happy to give you some suggestions of where to venture to in your rental car – and with a walking trail going right around the island, and a volcano to climb in the middle of it, you may want to take your hiking shoes along, too. Alternatively, if you’ve been firing around the sights on the mainland, you might want to head to one of the many beaches to kick back and gaze at the seas in front of you, and the mountains behind. A perfect way to round off your holiday to South Korea. TransportJeju is around an hour’s flight from Seoul.
