Scott was an AMAZING guide. He didn’t let the rain keep us from having a great tour! He took us to some of the well traveled spots in Busan but also some of his favorite spots. The Bamboo forest was a winner. Also, trust his judgement on the his fried chicken recommendation ☺️

Great tour of Busan. Excellent from time of booking with very good communication as we needed to be back in time for our cruise ship. Met at at the port by Jade who gave us and the other four members of our party a great tour of Busan. Very friendly and knowledgeable, had a fantastic day and much cheaper than the ship tours! Highly recommended.

Amazing Busan experience

Juan_H, Jul 2026

Quick day of Busan

Lily_S, Jul 2026
The service of picking up at hotel is appreciated and very convenient. Tour guide is friendly and enjoyed his guide. Loved the cultural (temple and the Gamcheon Vilkage) and the APEC sites. Like to hear more of the details AMA’s history on some items. The traditional seafood market is eye opening. Overall, an enjoyable and easy day trip.

Andrew_M, Jul 2026
Both tour guides BK and Jino were very knowledgeable, friendly and went above and beyond to ensure all of our requests were met. I would recommend this tour to anyone traveling to Busan. We got to experience a wide variety of places and the tour guides made the experience effortless for us.

One day in Busan

Michael_S, Jul 2026
We had a fantastic day traversing Busan, we covered so much ground that we just wouldn't have been able to if we did it by ourselves. Great mix of stops with enough time at each of them. Really interesting people on the tour. Guide was very thoughtful, interesting and knowledgeable.

Anna_S, Jul 2026
Scott was great! The weather clearly didn’t get the memo about our plans, but he adapted everything on the fly and somehow turned a rainy day into a fantastic one. We were on the go until the very last minute and never felt like we were missing out. Another five-star achievement, was putting up with my two feral children. Scott handled it with endless patience, kindness, and a smile. Thank you. We had a great day and are incredibly grateful for all the effort and flexibility.

Beautiful day with William

Martha_P, Jul 2026
We had the best day with William!! He was very kind and informative. We hit so many spots. 10/10, definitely recommend this tour to anyone!!

Great day with our guide Sang in Busan, Korea

Brian_S, Jul 2026
Such a great full day your in Busan with Sang as our guide! Sang absolutely made the day memorable as he provided his personal insight and experience with all things Korea. We especially enjoyed the tour and lunch at the Jagalchi fish market. Sang curated the lunch from start to finish and made it so fun. Highly recommend this tour!

Enjoyable Day

Deborah_P, Jun 2026
Very informative day spent seeing some of what Busan has to offer. Young was really helpful and knowledgeable about the places we visited.

Fantastic tour with our guide Jade

Andrew_P, Jun 2026
We had a fantastic day with our guide Jade. The small group makes it much easier to learn a locals perspective about the sights and history while avoiding feeling like a a typical tourist. We good to see plenty of different locations and experiences with adequate time at each stop. The guide had a number of lunch recommendations based on food preference, which worked really well for us. Given the small group this is an excellent way to see plenty at a reasonable price without the big coach feeling.

Great experience

Kira_A, Jun 2026
We were only in Busan for a couple of days. The city is so spread out that I figured the best way to see the city - without worrying about transportation, etc - was to be part of a tour, which I never usually do. This was my first time booking a tour, and booking a tour with Viator. I was grateful to be in a small group tour after I passed tour after tour of huge groups. We were able to experience a taste of Busan with an experienced and knowledgeable guide, Jade, who was friendly, informative and very kind. The whole process was painless and I very much appreciated the Viator options to cancel/change dates/reserve and pay later. Would definitely recommend.

Great Daily in Busan with Jino

Ebichachi, Jun 2026
Jino was a wonderful guide. He gave us a great tour and was very knowledgeable about each place visited. He was able to guide us to find a restaurant for lunch that met or dietary requirements. He was prompt and made sure we were able to get back to our cruise ship on time. Highly recommend the tour.

Moon was a fantastic tour guide and very knowledgeable. He was able to incorporate all the places we wanted to see in the amount of time we had. His vehicle was also very clean and comfortable.

Lively day out with our guide Fiona.

Sam_N, Jun 2026
A full day out. Lots of stairs and rocks. Not suitable for elderly or disabled. We had a great time and a packed day from 9am through 5pm. Our guide Fiona was very organised, knowledgeable and had a great sense of humour. Highlight was the fish market and fresh seafood lunch. Tour of markets and historic sites and Gamcheon culture village well worth it. Thank you Fiona a super day.

A taste of live octopus!!!!

Clark_C, Jun 2026
Our tour guide “iceman” was wonderful, giving us a flavor of Korean culture (and a taste of live octopus as a cuisine!!!). He adjusted the schedule to our time needs. A wonderful visit!!!

BK picked us right on time! Jade was exceptional, knowledge, funny, could talk to anyone of us in the group about multiple different topics! He always gave us information and details prior to stop and more information as we walked.

A jaunt with Jay in Busan

Diane_C, Jun 2026
We were a party of 4 who booed a last minute private tour. Jay rocked up at 8am and was the best guide. She was funny, informative and direct and efficiently showed us as much of Busan as was possible which included a fabulous Korean BBQ. Jay and Busan certainly didn’t disappoint. Thanks Jay for making our day.

Great guide and tour

Great your tour to see different parts of Busan and learn a little more about the city and areas. Guide was awesome, thanks Iceman.

Amazing BUSAN!

Terry, Jun 2026
Doing the small tour allows you to see more and get to know other travelers much better compared to the larger tour.

C stands for Clarity!!!

Stephanie_P, Jun 2026
The information that was given to me was different than the guide's. This is the second time this has happened.

Very worth it!

Marc_G, May 2026
Very enjoyable tour at a nice pace, we saw a lot without feeling rushed. We enjoyed the beautiful temple facing the sea, the fish market, having lunch at the BIFF Square and of course the Gamcheon Culture Village.

Great day in Busan!

Kimberly_T, May 2026
Our guide Leo was friendly, professional and very knowledgeable about his city. Since we were only a group of six, we were able to customize the stops and hit all the main highlights, including Gancheon Village, Haedong Yonggungsa Temple, and Haeundae Beach. It was well-paced and included free time to explore and shop/eat. A great intro to Busan City!
