Hints
Hints unlock one at a time: open Hint 1, and only then does Hint 2 appear. Stop the moment the case clicks.
Hint 1 Tap to reveal
Start with the one cell that is already filled when the puzzle opens; it tells you more about the whole row than it first seems.
Hint 2 Tap to reveal
Person ordering needs exclusion clues, not just direct placement; note who cannot sit next to whom before dragging names.
Hint 3 Tap to reveal
The last few cards are the easiest to mistake. Match every remaining clue against its row and column, and don't assume a leftover belongs to the first empty slot.

Trickiest clues
Mixing up row order with Person order
Hiker A/B/C/D are row labels, not names. It is easy to place Sally into the first Person column just because she is the first known name, but the Sally/Wayne adjacency clue is what decides the real order.
Ignoring the location hidden in nationality clues
The Korean/Cave clue links a nationality and a location at the same time. If you lock nationality first and ignore location, Hiker B, C, and D can all look interchangeable until you hit a contradiction.
Final thoughts
This level is a good reminder that one clue can lock two columns at once. Once I stopped treating each category as an isolated mini-puzzle and started re-checking the whole row, the grid filled itself. The final leftover rules are easy to miss, so read every remaining card before dragging.
