Busan is an awesome city but the experience was made exceptional by my guide, Jina. She was amazing! Being a local, she knows all the cool places to take you to really get a feeling for the city. I highly recommend!

Steve was an awesome tour guide. He explained alot about each stop and gave us history. He is English is very good, which made it easy to understand and communicate. He is also a very safe driver.
I appreciated that worked in time for us to ride the gondola at the skywalk. But what I appreciated most of all is that my granddaughter had accidently left her backpack in the van. When I called him he answered right away. Even though he had another to tour start soon, he turned around and brought it right back to us! I highly recommend this tour. It hits all the best highlights of Busan.

Busan is a wonderful place to visit. I wish we could have spent more time. Our guide Steve was knowledgeable and fun. He took us to the recommended sites but also added in some stops not every tourist sees! Had a great experience.

Great tour! The fish market was amazing to see!! Our tour guide, Chris, was fantastic!!! Gave great explanations. Courteous!
Joy_N, Jul 2024
Smelly van with AC not working well. Tour guide not enthusiastic and disengaged. I didn't learn anything about the historical sites. This tour is not worth the price. I would skip it.
Response from Host, Dec 2024
Chris has been fired and van has been replaced. sorry for his poor responsibility. He is no longer with us.
Sylvia_S, May 2024
Chris, our tour guide was funny, engaging, and informative. His English was excellent. We saw many sights in a short amount of time. .
Vasiliki_D, May 2024
Gamchron culture village. Thank you to Steve for the tour. Was informative of the sites & also gave you the option of exploring at own pace.
Birte_P, Feb 2024
The entire day was a lot of fun and included a little bit of everything. Mountain top views, a temple, fish market, street food, authentic Korean BBQ for lunch, one of the beaches with skywalk and view of the cable cars, and of course a stop at Gamcheon Cultural Village. Perfect if you don’t have much time to explore and need to get around quickly (some of our group were from one of the cruise ships for a one-day stop in Busan). Our guide Steve was very knowledgeable and fun and fluent in English so everything really worked out perfectly.
AXELDEION_N, Jan 2024
What I like about the tour is that it enabled us to see the many of the main sites of Busan. It's impossible to cover everything in just one day because Busan is a big city and attractions are scattered everywhere, but I think we got most of the essentials in this tour. Our tour guide even gave us a chance to see Haedong Yonggungsa close to New Year's Eve even if it was not in our itinerary. Chris is also a good, funny, and interactive tour guide.
Norah_G, May 2023
I had a solo tour with CK, who had flawless English & was willing to answer any question & chat away with me for the whole day. I learned so much & loved Busan. Would definitely recommend.
Namir_S, May 2023
Even though it was a very rainy day and we couldn’t do everything on the agenda, we still had a great time and we saw a lot The guide was really good and we enjoyed the tour and information
Steven_V, May 2023
Very efficient tour with a knowledgeable and personable guide (Steve). There were a couple spots that felt a bit rushed but overall good tour!
Brenton_D, May 2023
Such a great visit to Busan. I can’t believe how much I saw. All was well communicated beforehand and during. I really appreciate the knowledge of every spot we went (plus the local perspective on everything). I’d do it all again in a heartbeat.
Samantha_P, May 2023
Steve and Chris were great!!! There was one couple in addition to myself so it pleasurable to tour Busan in a small group. The tour was very prompt, organized and it NEVER felt rushed!! I’ve had my share of tours in other countries and I always felt rushed. Lunch was great and as a group we picked a place based on their suggestions. Highly recommend!!!
Joo_L, Apr 2023
Steve was amazing! It was a very fun and memorable tour of Busan. I would definitely recommend this tour to my friends.
Vicka_D, Apr 2023
A very fun tour with Steve! At each destination we got enough free time, a lot of interesting information, kind attitude from the guide (and also very funny).
The lunch was the most worthwhile part because it felt very experiential and steve even cooked the meat for us. Recommended tour🌟✌🏻
Alan_T, Apr 2023
If you want an energetic tour around the famous sites, ask for Steve, a local with a slight Texan accent. He is informative and even hilarious at times.
apkennelly, Apr 2023
Communication was excellent and Steve was a fabulous guide. He provided plenty of information about the locations visited as well as Busan and South Korea in general. The Korean BBQ was delicious. We visited many places however we never felt rushed. We would highly recommend this great tour of Busan.
Ellen_B, Apr 2023
Guide Steve was wonderful. He kept us on schedule, yet we didn’t feel rushed. We so appreciated the bus experience and particularly enjoyed the lunch in the private dining area.
RommelPaolo_S, Apr 2023
The most memorable part of the experience was having STEVE as our guide! He told us great stories behind the places we visited all with his unmistakable sense of humour!
Thomas_K, Apr 2023
Our guide, Steve, was extremely knowledgeable and had a great sense of humor. He also spoke perfect English which made everything easy to understand. The tour was a great overview of Busan, including cultural sites, observatories, and food locations. We highly recommend it.
Chris_R, Nov 2022
My wife and I were in Korea for our honeymoon. We visited both Seoul and Busan. We knew we wanted to book a tour for Busan to see as much as possible during our short stay in the city. We are so happy we booked this one! Steve was an amazing guide! We were very lucky that our tour was only the two of us with Steve as our driver. We saw so many spots during the tour. For each Steve provided information and then let us explore on our own. It was so much fun. The Korean BBQ lunch was delicious as well. Steve also tailored the tour to our preference by asking if we wanted to see the cable car versus the temple. Overall, the tour is the best value because it allows you to see all the different areas of Busan and several main attractions. 100% recommend!
CHRISTOPHER_M, Nov 2022
An amazing experience with our guide Helena! She was friendly, knowledgeable, and very flexible for the entire day.
Tia_S, Oct 2022
Steve was amazing and also very knowledgeable. I knew the places I waited to see during my visit, but didn’t know how to see them all. Thanks for an amazing tour and a lot of laughs.
Sarah_W, Oct 2022
Tour guide Steve was so responsive from day 1 when I booked the tour. I required a special pick up from Busan station and he immediately offered without me asking. We managed to visit 5 places in a breeze. For those who only wants to take a day trip to Busan, my experience shows it’s doable!
joshua_c, Aug 2022
This tour was very informative and enjoyable I got a lot of it useful facts and info on the city and all the questions I had where all answered and helped to paint a better image of the city. It was also helpful to put the city into perspective on where things where and the significance of certain parts of the city has to it history. I enjoyed my time with this experience.
Joann_S, Jul 2022
We covered a lot in the given time. Steve was super funny which made it more fun. He knew a lot of extra interesting facts. He was great about taking pictures for us. There was one temple closed so he made a nice last minute adjustment so we could see another one.
Jack_W, Jun 2022
Steve got us up close and personal with everything skipping the walks and lines. It was amazing and he was very knowledgeable about busan as a whole
