Erin_W, Dec 2025

We had such a wonderful day exploring Busan with Joe and learned so much about this incredible city. Joe was brilliant! He is knowledgeable, has a great sense of humour and showed us a side of Busan we would have never found on our own. Thank you so much Joe - we can’t wait to come back :)

Fun and Unique Walking Tour of Busan

Veronica_M, Nov 2025

Joe is passionate about Busan and how the people really live. He is very knowledgeable. He is also a comedian so be prepared to laugh a lot. Lots of walking with stairs which we liked. He also takes lots of photos which he shared with us. Overall fun adventure!

Busan walking tour

Scott_S, Nov 2025

Joe is a fantastic guide. Very knowledgeable about the history of Busan and Korea. Our group was able to see amazing views during the tour and ask lots of questions that Joe cheerfully answered. In addition, Joe took some nice photos and shared them with us after we were done. 10/10 tour, highly recommend if you like to walk and learn about Busan, its history and see some wonderful sights. Joe has perfect English too!

The perfect way to explore Busan

Sophie_B, Oct 2025

Joe is a brilliant guide. As a Busan native he took us to places away from the usual tourist spots, as well as the more famous places such as Gamcheon Culture Village and Jalgachi market. The difference with Joe was learning all the history and reality of these places, so we got to understand more about what it’s like to live here. We had such a fun day with Joe and learned so much about this beautiful city, as well as eating some incredible food along the way!

Best tour in Busan for real

Morgan_C, May 2025

This was an incredible tour. Joe has deep knowledge of not just Busan, but Korea in general. I asked him a lot of questions about Korean culture and history and his stamina and ability to give detailed answers was endless. Everywhere we went, people knew him and shouted hello. He showed me places I never would have seen otherwise. This tour gets my highest recommendation.

Tailormade to suit!

Jacqueline_R, May 2025

We had a great day with Joe in Busan. We were in port for a day, cruising from Japan, and Joe's tour gave us the flexibility we needed. Joe met us, and two other cruise couples, at the port and started the tour early for us, taking us to the Yeongdo Bridge and the Jagalchi fish market. We met another couple at the rooftop observatory at the Lotte Department Store, and from there went to a local restaurant and enjoyed a delicious homestyle meal, with a beer and soju mix on the side! After lunch we did the Oryukdo Skywalk, and then spent a couple of hours at Gamcheon Culture Village. We cut our day slightly short when we discovered there was an event at the port which would make our return difficult later in the day. Joe was incredibly knowledgeable, and we learned about many aspects of Korean history and current affairs. He's very funny, and his English is excellent. He catered to the needs of the different couples in our group very well. Thank you Joe!

The best guide and tour ever!

LUDIVINE_S, Apr 2025

We had the best time ever with Joe. He's perfectly English fluent, very open minded and funny. You can ask him anything you want about Korean culture, history, way of life, he will answer you sincerely. The tour itself is amazing. You will go around the whole city without getting tired because Joe chooses the best spots and explains you the very details that make the difference. We particularly liked the fact that we avoided most of the typical tourists spots to focus on the real Busan. We also enjoyed the way Joe explained us how to behave with Korean people. In a conclusion, the tour completed our expectations and far more. We totally recommend it and look forward to coming back very soon to Busan and visit new places with Joe.

Had a wonderful time...

Katrina_E, Mar 2025

Had a wonderful time around Busan with Joe! He has a wonderful sense of humor and I really felt like I had made a new friend by the end of it. Really enjoyed learning about the history of Busan and exploring the cultural villages with him, along with stuffing myself with street food. I'm also terrible about taking photos when I'm travelling, so I really appreciated Joe being our paparazzi for the day. He took all the candid photos I could've ever wanted :)

Do it the local way with Joe-Oppa!

CD_C, Mar 2025

Really enjoyed the day tour with Joe-Oppa! He's super friendly and shared alot (about Busan's pre-war and post-war history, and his hobby as stand-up comedian (and he cracked alot of jokes about himself too, can't help to say that he's really professional - both as a tour guide and a comedian). Thank you Oppa for teaching us how to drink soju like the locals! The tour with Joe-Oppa is definitely worth going for.
