Mrs Jae Song was a wonderful, knowledgeable guide, who adapted the programme to our preferences. It was really great to see the highlights of Busan with someone who knows the city inside out. From the dragon palace temple to Gamcheon cultural village, having lunch at Jagalchi fishmarket and so much more. It was a splendid tour!

Our guide, Jake, was THE BEST! He has a wonderful personality, very knowledgeable & entertaining. We were able to visit places we never would have found. Busan is beautiful, the people are beautiful and the food is delicious.

Overview

Busan’s top sights are spread out, and covering the highlights without much time to spare is tricky. Ideal for time-pressed travelers or cruise ship passengers, this full-day tour by chauffeured vehicle includes door-to-door transfers from the port of your Busan hotel. Take in panoramic views from Gamcheon Cultural Village, ride up Sangdo Cable car, and soak up the scenery of Haedong Yonggungsa—a historic Buddhist temple—all in one day.
  • Let your guide translate and help you overcome the language barrier
  • Ideal for onward travel: Pickup and drop-off can be in separate locations
  • Learn all about Busan’s history and culture from your private group guide
  • All admission fees are included, so you won’t be fumbling for change at each stop

Rosh_S, July 2026
Great start seeing a temple and then different parts of Busan from the markets to the APEC centre. Luke was a great guide very friendly and kind, spoke excellent English and was patient with our two children as well. He went out of his way to stop at a shop when I requested to pick up some Korean whiskey as a gift. Would definitely recommend him to others. Vehicle was clean and AC worked well.

A grand day out in Busan

Lesley_G, June 2026
We had a nice small group of 4 people in all. We were very well looked after by Luke. He was thoughtful to the older members in the group. He was friendly and chatty and there was a good vibe to the group. There was a good mix of sights he took us to keeping us informed as we went, about Korean life in general as well as the sights we were visiting. I would definitely recommend this tour and Luke as a guide.

Love Busan

Karen_D, May 2026
This tour was exciting and educational. We learned more about Busan and fall in love with it. Our guide, Luke was knowledgeable, attentive, friendly and kind. We took out the Blue-line capsule from his itinerary since we took it the day before and added the white fox village. He was accompanying our request and considerate to our needs. I highly recommend this tour if you are visiting Busan. If you are lucky, you will be guided by Luke. 😊

Nicest tour guide and driver!

Nancy_C, Jan 2026
Anne was THE best tour guide! She is so friendly, kind, and super informative in all the destinations we hit. Everyone in our group really appreciated her as our guide and would 100% recommend this tour and Anne to anyone wanting to do a full day in Busan! The van we traveled in was clean, comfortable, and had the nicest driver as well, who recommended some local restaurants and even made reservations for us. Everyone gave it a two thumbs up, but would give more if we could. :)

Amazing tour with guide Luke!

Reilika_M, Oct 2025
We had an amazing experience exploring Busan! Our tour guide Luke was very helpful and nice. He even showed us a more local spot to see the view of Gamcheon. I knew I wanted to see the popular sites in Busan and this tour covered all of them. Even tough our weather wasn’t the best (very cloudy) I still saw the beauty of this city. Luke was very sweet and talkative, we really enjoyed his company. At the end of the tour, he even recommended us a place to eat at Gukje Market. I really recommend this tour for anyone who wishes to see the incredible beauty of this city.

Life is an Adventure + more

Joyce_J, Aug 2019
My family scheduled the Busan Highlight tour for August 12 2019. Our tour guide was the knowledgeable, wonderful Dylan ( spelling of his name may be off) Our first tour stop was at the Heaedong Yonggungsa Temple, toward the end of this segment tour my husband suddenly was overcome by the heat and we had to be taken by ambulance to nearest hospital. Dylan rounded up the other family on the tour and came to the hospital to translate questions from medical staff and make sure my family was coping. The compassion, concern and professionalism Dylan showed was so very much appreciated, he even offered to wait until everything was cleared by hospital, but the tour for the other family had been disrupted enough , we wanted them to really enjoy the tour so we declined his offer. Even though we did not experience the entire tour, I still rate it high based on the customer service Dylan provided, regarding his role at the guide and his actions as a concerned human.

Comprehensive Busan Tour, Highly Recommended
