The 10 Best Multi-day Tours in Busan, South Korea

July 27, 2021 Darwin Bolte

Busan is Korea's second largest city.  Tourists often come to this region to hike and to visit the Buddhist Temples located deep within the region's mountains. The Beomeosa Temple, founded in 678 AD, is perhaps one of the most frequented temples in the area and is always packed with worshipers and tourists. For art buffs, Busan offers several museums and historical buildings. If scenery is your thing, try visiting the Dongbaek Island, or bird watch at the Nakdong river estuary.

Chance was a very knowledgeable and enthusiastic tour guide. My fiancé and I enjoyed the trip and we feel that it was worth the money spent. Chance gave us a private skiing lesson and his visible passion for the job made the trip one to remember.

Great quick survey trip of Easter Korea giving some highlights. Best stop was Hahoe folk village... beautiful. Long road trip but interesting scenery and stops. Justin Choi was great as guide with humor and good history knowledge. Could have skipped Pyeonchang Olympic site as nothing's there anymore and spend more time at Mt Seoraksan or other location. Good for first timer visit.

In order to visit all the beautiful and historical cities outside of Seoul, we knew we need to join a bus tour and after reviewing all the tours out there, we booked K-Shuttle. Our group was a fun and punctual group of people, so with all the long ride going to one city to another, it wasn’t that bad. All the places we go to were places that all the locals will go for their getaway too, so it was nice to see that not everything are made for foreign tourists. Our guide, Cooper, was very helpful and informative, he brought his binder that filled with printed pictures of what is necessary for us to know about his lovely country, South Korea and also the places that we will visit. I would recommend K-Shuttle for sure to my friends back home.
