Hi guys.. need some help here again.. this thread helps me alot when I travel to korea few years ago. This coming Christmas I'm going Korea again. this time will include Jeju in my plan.. I read from V1 last time, but skip all information regarding Jeju.
as far as I know, there are 2 methods to travel in Jeju..hire a car+driver or rent a car drive myself.
if I were to drive myself, what sort of items I need to prepare/provide in order to hire a car?International driving licence is a must? GPS english-based? the driver side, roads are all terbalik.. will that be a big problem for us malaysian to drive? lastly, how much are we looking at if rent a car compare to hire a car+driver for 2 person?
thank you very much!
of cause you need IDL.. just go JPJ apply and they will issue you a small letter. that is IDL and it can last for 1 yr
car in Korea equip with GPS. when you wanna hire a car, just mention to them English GPS but sometimes can't detect the destination.. Korean GPS more accurate.. definitely in the beginning you will feel weird driving on the left hand side, but after some times you will get use to it.. no worry..
usually people will opt for rent a car if in a group. if you are only 2 pax and want to have less hassle than go for hire a taxi. if you want freedom and go on your own leisure way, drive yourself. the feeling is different

Is this the usual sim card people get while visiting the Korea?

plan to midnight shopping in dongdaemun? fyi, midnite charge for taxi is very expensive.. and some is cut throat price tongue.gif not midnite but around 8pm+ like thatahh.. i thought midnite as you put supper after that hehehe.. if you arrive at Dongdaemun after 8pm++ than after shopping definitely is midnite and usually midnite price is far more cheaper yo.. and if you mean after 8pm++ after shopping from Dongdaemun i guess you will be quite rush at Sinsa & Apgujeong cause you include dinner??
