Jeju East Tour
The Jeju east tour stop by stop: Manjanggul Lava Tube, Seongeup Folk Village, Seongsan Ilchulbong and the haenyeo divers, with the closed days, the fees and six east tours compared.
A Jeju east tour is a day from Jeju City along the north-east and east of the island: Manjanggul Lava Tube, Seongeup Folk Village, the volcanic cone of Seongsan Ilchulbong at the eastern tip, and the haenyeo, the women divers, who work the sea below it. The one to book is LOVE KOREA’s Jeju East UNESCO Tour: Tangerine Picking, Seongsan, Haenyeo, from US$51 on promotion, usually US$86 a person (checked November 2026). It is 10 hours from four pickups in Jeju City, admission included, lunch and the tangerine picking paid on the day.
On 15 and 26 November 2026 the day cost US$51.47 a person and on 20 January and 24 March 2027 US$85.78 (checked November 2026). Free cancellation until 24 hours before.
The route
Seongsan Ilchulbong is 47 km by road from Jeju International Airport, at the far end of the island from the hotels where the tours collect you. Manjanggul Cave is on the north-east coast and Seongeup Folk Village inland, so an east day makes a loop: out along one side, back along the other. Hallasan, the mountain in the middle, is not on the east tours at all.
LOVE KOREA’s day, stop by stop
Pickup
Ocean Suites Jeju Hotel at 08:00, Jeju Airport (3rd floor, Gate 3) at 08:15, Lotte City Hotel Jeju at 08:25 or Shilla Duty-Free Jeju Store at 08:35. A WhatsApp group with the guide is set up before the tour, so a working number matters.
Manjanggul Lava Tube
The first stop. Visit Jeju lists the cave as open 09:00 to 18:00, with the last entry at 17:00, and closed on the first Wednesday of every month; about 1 km of it is open, entered by Entrance 2. Adults pay 4,000 won (VISITKOREA), and the tour’s admission covers it. It reopened on 30 May 2026 after a closure (all checked November 2026).
Seongeup Folk Village
A traditional village of stone houses and walls. Two reviewers (17 and 28 September 2026) wrote that skin and health products were promoted during the village visit, with no pressure to buy.
Lunch
At a local restaurant, at your own cost. Vegan, halal, vegetarian and allergy needs can be arranged if you tell the guide.
Seongsan Ilchulbong
The volcanic cone at the eastern tip. From November to February it opens 06:00 to 18:00, with the last ticket an hour before closing; adults pay 5,000 won and it is closed on the first Monday of every month (VISITKOREA, checked November 2026). One reviewer (12 September 2026) found the climb tight for the time given, so keep an eye on the clock. More on Seongsan Ilchulbong.
The haenyeo show
At the foot of the peak, free with the Seongsan ticket, at hours that change with the season and the weather. The itinerary also lists the Haenyeo Museum. See the haenyeo show.
The tangerine farm and Gwangchigi Beach
The farm’s entry is included, the picking is paid on the spot; Jeju tangerine picking has the season and the other tours’ fees. Gwangchigi is a volcanic shore with a view back to Seongsan.
Drop-off
Dongmun Traditional Market at 17:45, Ocean Suites at 17:50, the airport at 18:00, Lotte City Hotel at 18:10 and Shilla Duty-Free at 18:15.
Two closed days to plan round
The first Monday of the month closes Seongsan Ilchulbong (the next day if that Monday is a public holiday): 7 December 2026, 4 January and 1 February 2027. The first Wednesday closes Manjanggul: 2 December 2026, 6 January and 3 February 2027. LOVE KOREA does not say what replaces either stop. Yeha.Inc’s east day swaps Manjanggul for Micheon Cave when it is closed, or offers a full refund. Reviewers of LOVE KOREA’s day posting on 10 September and 6 October 2026 could not climb Seongsan on a closure day.

Stops and prices a person, checked November 2026; Uken Tour Jeju’s on Viator, checked November 2026. Where a tour gives no time for a stop, none is shown.
What changes between them is mostly what you pay on the day. LOVE KOREA’s and Yeha.Inc's days include admission; Lucas Travel's leaves the Seongsan ticket, 5,000 won, to be paid there, and takes no one under 6. Jeju Fabio Co., Ltd's is the one that starts in Seogwipo, on the south coast, collecting from hotels in the old town and the new town between 08:40 and 09:00, with at most 12 people and a guide who speaks English and Korean; bookings start at two people. Uken Tour Jeju's includes lunch and the picking, at US$105 a person for two or more adults.
