Jonas was a wonderful guide and we had a great bus driver as well! These sites in Busan are really far apart from eachother, and there’s no way to view them all in a day, unless you do a bus tour like this. Highly recommend if you’re on a time crunch and only have a few days in Busan.
Great trip, Kang the tour guide was excellent very informative, took pictures for all the group and generally very helpful
It is definitely a full day tour. Erica our tour guide gave a succinct overview of the sites, Korean history as appropriate, and kept us on schedule. She knows the perfect picture spots and helps take them.
The grilled seafood lunch place was ok, would recommend walk around the train station area and explore other eating choices.
Response from Host, Sep 2026
Thank you sincerely for sharing such thoughtful feedback about your full-day experience. We are pleased that your guide provided clear historical context, kept the day running smoothly, and helped you capture memorable photographs from the best vantage points. Your candid comment about the grilled seafood lunch is equally valuable, particularly your suggestion to allow time to explore the dining choices around the train station area; we will keep this in mind as we continue refining the overall experience. We are grateful for your trust in Love Korea and for recognizing the care and organization your guide brought to the tour. It would be a pleasure to welcome you back to Korea for another thoughtfully planned journey.
It was a good tour that included visits to a temple, the UN cemetery, and a picturesque neighborhood. There was also a short train ride. The tour ended in the fish market which was impressive. The guide and driver, Yaho, was upbeat and informative. Good job!

Excellent tour experience. Tour guide (Joe) has knowledge in places we went. He is very professional and speak clear english. He is very straight forward. As a first time tourist in Busan, I suggest to choose lunch restaurant that servers speak english and decent in appearance and looks clean. The bus we used had issue in air conditioning. The cooling temp is not enough for full capacity. The bus driver is good and safe driver. No issue during driving.

I would strongly recommend.

We deeply enjoyed this tour. Our guide, Yoseong (forgive us for the bad spelling) was lovely and he just explained in so much detail, Korean history and many interesting aspects of Korea nowadays vs the old times. We highly recommend this tour, you get to see some of the most beautiful spots in Busan. At the end of the tour he even gave us a wonderful gift from Gamcheon Village.

It’s *mandatory* to write an opinion, which is weird.
The tour in general was quite good.
I would potentially skip the capsule tour if you are used to beautiful sea sights.
The rest was nice!
Response from Host, Jul 2026
Thank you sincerely for taking the time to share your candid impressions, especially since leaving a written comment felt unnecessarily mandatory. We are glad that you found the Busan tour enjoyable overall and that the day’s other experiences made a positive impression. Your perspective on the capsule ride is particularly valuable, as travelers who are already familiar with beautiful coastal scenery may experience that portion differently; we will keep this thoughtful observation in mind as we continue refining how we present and pace the itinerary. We truly appreciate your trust in LOVE KOREA and hope to welcome you back for another opportunity to discover a different side of Korea.
