Leo is such a good photographer, knows the city well and made such a good tour for us. He was silly with my daughter and handled so many details with ease so we didn’t have to. He was a great driver and my photos were amazing!!! He was on time, communicated well, made last minute changes and was so pleasant. Don’t delay book also asap!!!

Hasundae BLUELINE Park Sky Capsule, Diamond Bridge and Ahopsan Bamboo Forest.

Susie_W, Apr 2026
April 1st provided a wonderful display of Cherry Blossoms in full bloom. Many of the streets were lined with magical blossoms as we drove to the Haeundae Blueline Park Sky Capsule and Ahopsan Bamboo Forest. The ride in the Sky Capsule along the coastline was well worth the effort as it had wonderful views of both the land and the sea. Our guide, Danny was exceptionally polite, speaking and understanding English well and looked after us so well. It was so good to meet a local and interact on a one to one basis with just the four of us on the tour. Danny drove us to the Bamboo Forest where we took a walk amongst the bamboo groves and pine trees. We enjoyed the fresh air and appreciated the natural environment as well as the drive over Diamond Bridge and through the mountains and past market gardens to arrive at our destination. For us it was a most enjoyable experience, getting away from the city and seeing ,ore of the rural area. Danny took a number of photos of our group and sent them to us at the end of the day which was greatly appreciated. Thank you Danny for looking after us four oldies!

Jenny did a great job on our private tour. We had a short stay in Busan and really enjoyed being able to see so much in one day. She’s very knowledgeable and my family had a great time!

Amazing tour with DK as the guide!

ann_z, Apr 2026
Ask for DK- he is the best! DK made our tour of Busan amazing! He is very kind and knowledgeable. We were able to do and see more than we had even hoped because of DK!!

Excellent private tour of Busan

daniel_p, Mar 2026
Awesome tour with our guide Leo! The tour was private and fully customizable to our needs. Leo was so helpful and kind. We could not have done everything without his help and expertise. He arranged everything in advance which made everything so smooth and seamless. A really great experience!

Amazing Busan Experience!

NovaJ_S, Mar 2026
Simply amazing! Yeoni was an incredible guide. Excellent driver, punctual, polite and thoughtful. My 80 year old mother’s wanted to see the bamboo forest, I was worried about her mobility so I booked a private tour. Yeoni was so thoughtful in selecting a route and allowed time for rest stops as needed. Next we went to a wonderful spot for tea and dessert- great selection and some of the most flavorful teas! The seaside temple was beautiful and Yeoni guided us on a route with few stairs to ensure my mother would be comfortable. Next to Biff square and the International Market. Another amazing stop. Yeoni made some food recommendations and guided us through the market to find the items we were looking for. My mother was exhausted and we ended a bit early. Throughout the entire tour Yeoni provided insight on history, traditions and the Korean lifestyle. Such a great experience, would definitely take a tour with her again!!

My wife and I had a lovely tour with Jenny. We saw an impressive amount of Busan, and Jenny was flexible enough to accommodate last minute itinerary changes on the fly. Highly recommend if you are traveling through Busan

Great tour of Busan

Perry_M, Mar 2026
Ryan was brilliant. He listened to the limits of 2 travel weary travellers and tailored the tour to suit us. We got to understand the history of the city and experience the city through the eyes of a local. Experiencing a lunch of Korean fried chicken at a small local restaurant we would never have stopped at was a bonus. The food was delicious and being able to know Ryan better really topped off the tour.

Anthony is the best

Cemil_T, Mar 2026
Everything was perfect from the beginning of the trip till the end Especially Anthony made everything easier

Incredible tour with great guide

Elizabeth_O, Mar 2026
Our tour was absolutely amazing. Jake, our tour guide, was incredibly knowledgeable and filled us in on Korean history and culture as well as answered all of the questions we had. The day was fantastic and this tour was an incredible way to see Busan. Jake took us to a great spot for lunch and explained to us the Korean way of eating the dish. I really recommend this tour as a great way to spend the day in Busan.

Great Day!

Jill_Z, Mar 2026
We had the most wonderful day with GINO. He was so kind and patient and took such good care of us. We were traveling with my 86-year-old mother and my nine-year-old nephew and everybody had a great day. When my mother got tired, he took her back to the ship and continued the touring with the rest of the family. It was a marvelous experience. We had a great day!

Leo is amazing and book him ASAP!!!

Great introduction to Busan

Alison_T, Mar 2026
Doing a private tour was so much better than doing a big group tour would have been. Jade collected us from the cruise terminal at the port and we learnt a lot from him during the drives between the places we visited. Our hours with Jade were well spent and a great introduction to Busan. We appreciated his flexibility and good advice.

Alex_B, Mar 2026
Cooper showed us an amazing time in our one day in Busan. It was especially tricky because we were traveling with a one year old but he made the experience seamless, fun and flexible! His English was great!

Great port tour

Edward_G, Mar 2026
Jina was great, gave us a great day in Port. Informative, fun and friendly ... highly recommend for off the ship excursion!!

Leo made the day special

Robin_B, Mar 2026
We had so much fun with Leo today! He tailored or excursion to our interests and mobility issues. We were able to spend time at three different locations. He was very knowledgeable and kind. And a careful driver. Such a good guy!

How to spend a perfect day in South Korea

Randee_G, Mar 2026
Sang, our tour guide, showed us the best of Busan. The 100 story Observatory with panoramic views to the highest Starbucks in the world. He took us to Hewangryeongsan Observatory for a small hike to the top for mor panoramic views of Busan. Off to the fish market to view the catches of the day. We ended our trip to an authentic seafood South Korean lunch of Abalone, eel, grilled shrimp and King Crab. What a way to spend one day in Busan, South Korea.

Excellent Private Tour of Busan with Young Choi

Juliette_S, Mar 2026
We had a wonderful day exploring Busan with Young Choi. He picked us (family of 6 with tweens and teens) up at the port at 7:30 AM, ensuring we reached the Haedong Yonggungsa "Dragon Palace" Temple before the crowds. His knowledge of the local history, including the legends of the Sea Dragon King and the significance of the Wishing Leaves, added so much depth to our visit. Young was incredibly professional and flexible with our family. He helped the boys find the specific local treats they wanted to try, like freeze-dried strawberries and cheese corn dogs. When our energy dipped later in the day, he seamlessly adjusted the tour to show us sites from the car, ensuring we were comfortable and back to the ship perfectly on time. We highly recommend him for anyone looking for an insightful and stress-free private tour of Busan.

Our family spent a...

Patrice_C, Mar 2026
Our family spent a fantastic day with our guide Bada C. We had three things on our wish list - Haedong Yonggungsa Temple, Jagalchi Market and Gamcheon Cultural Village. Bada was thoughtful in planning out our day and suggested a beautiful place for coffee and baked goods along the east coast beac. And for lunch, to satisfy the cravings of our teenagers, he brought us to his favorite noodle spot, frequented by locals. It was delicious! Bada is very knowledgeable and informative, and shared the history and growth of the Busan. The day went by too quickly. We highly recommend doing this private tour as it is customized to suite your pace of travel. We cannot wait to come back to Busan!

Melanie_F, Mar 2026
If you are looking to visit some of the major attractions in Busan, I highly recommend booking the Busan Private Tour with licensed tour guide + private vehicle package. After booking this package, our tour operator, BK reached out to me to verify which attractions I wanted to visit during my tour. I provided him a list and BK curated a perfect timeline. BK was very accommodating and thorough with the tour information. Great communication with updated changes to my tour and verifying important info (i.e pick up/drop off locations) Our tour guide, Jade was very friendly/easy going, professional and knowledgeable regarding all the spots we visited. I was worried the tour did not include a proper meal for my 8 hour tour (not including cafes), but Jade had many recommendations, one being a restaurant that served an amazing pork soup. I enjoyed learning about the history during the tour and appreciated the free time me and my husband got to explore before moving on to the next destination. Although we were only able to explore Busan for a day, BK and Jade made it a memorable holiday for me and my husband.

Great day in Busan!!

Rob_S, Mar 2026
Daisy was an outstanding guide and made my Busan tour incredibly enjoyable. She was knowledgeable, organized, and made the entire day feel effortless. From the moment we started, everything flowed smoothly, and she ensured I was able to experience each location without feeling rushed. What really stood out was her warm personality and attention to detail. Daisy tailored the day perfectly, offered great insights along the way, and made the experience feel personal rather than scripted. I would highly recommend her to anyone visiting Busan—she truly elevated the entire tour.

Private tour of Busan

Ron_R, Mar 2026
A customised tour of Busan. DK was an excellent guide and made it easy for my wife who has limited mobility to cope with the day. His local knowledge was excellent and he took us to places we would probably not found ourselves.

Busan Tour Lite

JOSEPHGARY_D, Mar 2026
My family and friends decided to take a day trip to Busan during our trip to Seoul. We took a KTX train in the morning and arrived in Busan before noon. Our tour guide Linda (Terrific and highly recommended) met us outside our train car and greeted us with water and snacks. We chose Gamcheon Village, Songdo Skywalk and Jagalchi Fish Market and Gukje market (where we had time to enjoy a quick seafood lunch of fresh prawns and crab) we ended the tour with some time to spare before our train back to Seoul. If you’re looking for a quick tour, this is the one to take.

Half day trip in Busan

Kim_T, Mar 2026
Tour us to several tourist destinations with a nice 7 passenger van Nice personality and very knowledgeable of the area.

The best tour with the best guide!

Elena_A, Mar 2026
A wonderful tour with our amazing guide, Moon, who made the day so much fun! He was very knowledgeable and his insights into local culture and history were very interesting. He provided recommendations for great places to eat and shop and helped us with all of our needs. He was very cheerful and had a great sense of humour so we laughed for most of the day - we couldn’t have asked for a better or more thoughtful guide. He was so considerate and accomodating, and also a great driver. Very highly recommend!! Korea Discovery Tour is a very well organised, flexible and excellent tour company.

Alicia_B, Mar 2026
We had a great half day tour of West Busan with Young. We had a mixed group age wise, (3-65 years) and he did a good job balancing the interests and pacing to suit everyone. We also appreciated that a car seat and booster seat were set up for the young kids.

Karen_I, Mar 2026
The tour was flexible to ensure we saw extra items thanks to Peter’s guidance. Nice comfortable vehicle.

Fantastic day tour

Amanda_L, Mar 2026
BK sent an email with options for the tour and was very responsive to questions prior to our tour. Suggestions were provided and the meet up location was clear. The van was clean and very spacious. We had Jino as our tour guide and driver - he was AMAZING. We have three children and he was accommodating and patient. His positive disposition and knowledge of the area made the tour very enjoyable. If you’re looking for a day tour of Busan, we would highly recommend this one - especially if you’re lucky enough to get Jino!

Mimi was Awesome must book tour

Rochelle_F, Mar 2026
Mimi was our tour guide. She knew all the best spots. She built our tour around our interest. We changed direction and got great suggestions on the history of Korea. This is a must book. It was well worth the price for a tour for 8 hours. Don't regret your trip book this tour it saved us so much time and we hit all the best spots.

Excellent tour
