An optimal tour in Busan! - This tour is incredible value for money. Curated to optimise the cultural highlights of Busan, you’ll feel reassured and satisfied after the day. Our guide Steven ensured the full day was easy going yet structured, with an affable and approaching demeanour. Highly recommend!

Hi

Hit all the highlights of Busan - Steve was an excellent English speaking tour guide. Very helpful to everyone on the tour. He offered to take pictures for everyone. He was very informative about each site. Excited to go to the Gamcheon cultural village to find the Jimin and Jungkook mural. He helped us find it. Bonus he took us to the Huinnyeoul Culture Village but it was bit overcast so couldn’t see the view as clearly. He took us to see Jagalchi Market which wasn’t part of the itinerary which we were really happy with. It was our last day in Busan and wasn’t sure if we could fit it in. The different seafood was amazing. Lunch was at Bupyeong Kkangtong Market which was across from Gukje Market. We had some free time to eat and explore. Ahopsan forest was one of the highlights since it was also the filming site of The King the Eternal Monarch. We got a good workout from the steps there. Relaxing at Ha:nok cafe after was perfect. Haedong Yonggungsa Temple was beautiful. We ended the day with a ride on Haeundae sky capsule. Since we had a little time before the capsule, we saw Cheongsapo Daritdol Skywalk. I would recommend Steve and this tour to anyone .

Must do Tour! Loved Ahopsan! Also Steven is the best guide! - This tour is a must! I’m currently on a mother / daughter trip. I’ve been to Busan multiple times whilst it’s the first time for my mum. I chose this tour as it had key places I wanted to take my mum (Haedong Yonggungsa temple, Gamcheon cultural Village, Cheongsapo - beach train / sky capsule) as well as places I’ve never been to (such as Hanok cafe and Ahopsan). Ahopsan was the highlight for both myself and my mum. I would say it’s better than Arashiyama (we visited Kyoto 2 wks earlier). Not only is it less crowded but overall it’s more beautiful. My 75+ mother was initially thinking of turning back as the first part of the trek was the hardest being up hill but Steven our tour guide encouraged her to go a bit further saying it worth it and boy was he right. Upon reaching the first vantage point we were both so blown away with the beauty. From here on there was zero questions about continuing on with the group for the trek. We fell behind a lot but Steven our tour guide was amazing. He kept circling back and checking on us and giving us tips on where we could take short cuts. He was really patient, thoughtful and lovely! He also took amazing photos for us. This was throughout the day at each stop but I was particularly grateful at Ahopsan as we lagged behind. Overall it’s really good value for money noting hotel pick up and the sheer number of locations. As mentioned, Steven is amazing! I highly recommend this. Things to note: - The tour operator will contact you the day before to confirm pick up time but this maybe later (afternoon / evening) as they are running tours during the day. - Ahopsan has a small entry fee (8000KRW). I booked via Klook which does show it’s not included but i thought I’d mention it as I wasn’t really sure how much it was. - With 6 attractions it’s a really full on day. Ahopsan involves an hr of walking, Gamcheon has a lot of stairs (you can explore at your own will so it’s up to you on how extensively you choose to explore). Whilst it can be tiring my 75+ mum was able to participate in all activities and I was wearing flip flops so it’s not physically challenging.

Great Tour and Tour guide! - My mum and I had an amazing day on this tour and we had the pleasure having Steven as our tour guide. The tour had a little bit of everything and it captured the beautiful parts of busan. The highlight for us was the bamboo forest and the traditional Korean Cafe. Steven made the day comfortable and fun with he's sense of humour, knowledge and approachability.
