Admissions

Detailed itinerary

Indulge in the clean air with high oxygen content in Jeju’s unique forest of Gotjawal. The rugged terrain of lava rock masses has a warming and humidifying effect and helps to fill underground aquifers. Exploring this pristine forest you’ll find yourself fulfilled by being connected to nature.
(Walking trail 1.8km, 60 min.)

Time to savor local food. We’ll suggest the best local kitchens around at a reasonable price, which a big bus tour cannot cover. Vegetarian options will be also suggested. (Lunch excluded)

Stop 3

Refresh yourself by exploring two places in a picturesque location surrounded by lush greenery. O’Sulloc offers tea exhibitions, interactive displays, tea tastings, and various tea products while Innisfree Jeju House offers skincare and beauty products made with ingredients sourced from Jeju.

Go for dolphin watching at Conch Park like Woo Youngwoo or Samdal from K-drama. Finely tune your senses to every ripple and splash in the water waiting for Jeju Dolphins.

Have a healing time on the outstanding volcanic site, Suwolbong. It is often introduced in many encyclopedias of volcanics as the best exposure to pyroclastic surge deposits in the world.

Relax on the beautiful Hyupjae Beach where silver-white sand continues endlessly. Healing is just looking at the sea color which looks like emerald paint slowly released into transparent water. Biyangdo Island in the shape of a boa constrictor swallowing an elephant is on the opposite side!

Indulge yourself in Hallim Park comprised of nine themes; subtropical botanical garden, bonsai garden, folk village, palm tree road, bird safari, pond garden, rock exhibitions, outdoor walking trail and lava tubes.

Exploring the two lava tubes; Hyeopjaegul and Ssangyonggul is another healing moment in the darkness and quietness.

* The remaining hours will be allotted for the travel time from pick-up until drop-off.
