Know More about this tour


It is Korea's largest seafood market. After the Korean War, the market solidified itself as a fish market. This market represents Busan and is famous throughout the country. If you visit you can eat fresh raw fish right at the market.
Busans modern movie district was originally little more than a pair of cinemas that were built following Koreas liberation from Japanese colonial rule over half a century ago. However, major renovations took place ahead of the first Busan International Film Festival (BIFF) in 1996, and the newly transformed district was named BIFF Square on August 14, 1996.
It is situated on the coast of the north-eastern portion of Busan. This superb attraction offers visitors the rare find of a temple along the shore line; most temples in Korea are located in the mountains.
It is the most famous beach in Busan. The white sand beach is roughly 1.5km long, over a 30~50m wide area, creating a beautiful coastline before a shallow bay, making Haeundae Beach perfect for swimming.
Dongbaek IslandIt is translated into Camellia which is growing in islands of southern provinces and southern coastal area of Korea blossoming around March., of which the leaves are thick and glossy maintaining dark green colour through 4 seasons. There is Nurimaru APEC house, around three-story building exclusively built for the final summit meeting for the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation conference in the island.
The stairs and the walls in this village are different from what you normally see. They are all tombstones. That's why the village is called Tombstone culture village. People began living here in tents since 1951. When it became more settled, the tents became too small, so people began building on top of Japanese graves. People think of the ocean what it comes to Busan, but Busan is also a city of mountains. From Ami-dong, the entire city of Busan can be seen.
Gamcheon was a refuge to many people fleeing to Busan during the Korean War. The creative urban regeneration project started in 2010 and the success of the project attracts 1,400,000 Korean and foreign tourists to the village annually. It's earning this village the nickname of "Machu Picchu of Busan."

    We enjoyed 8 hours packed with great locations, delicious food, and fun conversations. Dylan, our guide, went out of his way to make sure we were comfortable and having a good time. He was knowledgable on all the locations and always managed to get us around despite a ton of weekend traffic. Highlights included the gorgeous temple visit first thing in the morning and the fish market

    Great tour. Kyungae was very flexible and the driver was excellent. She noticed I had breathing issues and adapted drop offs and pick ups to minimize my walking. Lunch was putstanding as recommended ny Kyungae! She also took lots of photos of us which was above and beyond. Would definitely book with her again as she is very knowledgeable and her English is fantastic!
