Most travel guides would recommend that you rent a car to get around Jeju. Many residents get around by car, buses take forever to come despite the multiple bus stops, and taxis are few and far between.
We rented a car back in 2024 to drive around Jeju and it was the best decision that we ever made. We looked around for some car rental options in Jeju and eventually picked LOTTE Rent-a-car’s service at Jeju Auto House.
That being said, there are many other options in Jeju that you can consider. I’ve pulled together this list that hopefully helps your decision-making process!
