Our guide Bada did a great job of explaining various sites around the city. I skipped the capsules but had a pleasant walk instead along the same coastline.

Itinerary
Enjoy beautiful coastal views along one of Busan's most scenic seaside routes. Both Sky Capsule included and excluded options are available, so please select your preferred option carefully when booking. **Guests who do not take the Sky Capsule can enjoy a walking tour from Cheongsapo to Mipo, including a visit to the Haewol Observatory.
Dalmaji-gil (Moontan Road): This scenic hillside next to Haeundae Beach is known as Dalmaji-gil, or Moontan Road, a beloved spot for both locals and visitors. As you drive along the winding coastal road, you’ll enjoy sweeping views of the deep blue ocean, pine-covered slopes, and the striking line of modern skyscrapers that shape Haeundae’s skyline. In spring, the road becomes even more magical as the cherry blossom lane bursts into bloom, creating a beautiful pink canopy along the way. It’s one of the most picturesque drives in Busan, offering a perfect blend of nature and city scenery.
Haedong Yonggungsa Buddhist Temple (Temple of the Dragon Palace): One of Busan’s most beloved and iconic attractions, Haedong Yonggungsa is a rare seaside temple built dramatically along the rocky shoreline. As you approach, you’ll be greeted by peaceful bamboo groves and the sound of waves crashing against the cliffs. The path leads you through a series of stone statues and viewpoints before you descend the 108 steps, symbolizing the cleansing of earthly desires. At the bottom, the temple opens up to breathtaking ocean views, creating a serene and spiritual atmosphere that feels worlds away from the city. - There are 108 stair steps to reach the temple area, but a ramp is also available as an alternative. - The time spent at each location may vary depending on the group’s pace.
Gwangan Bridge (Diamond Bridge): During the tour, we’ll cross the famous Gwangandaegyo Bridge, often called the Diamond Bridge—one of Busan’s most iconic landmarks. Stretching elegantly over the ocean between Haeundae and Gwangalli, the bridge offers fantastic panoramic views of the coastline, the city skyline, and the sparkling blue water below. On a clear day, you can even catch a glimpse of Tsushima Island in Japan far out on the horizon. As we drive across, you’ll get a unique perspective of Busan’s blend of modern architecture and natural beauty, making it a memorable highlight of the journey.
Cross the impressive Busan Harbor Bridge and enjoy panoramic views of the port, coastline, and city skyline.
Jagalchi Fish Market: As the largest fish market in Korea, Jagalchi is a vibrant and lively place where you can experience Busan’s seafood culture at its fullest. The market is bustling with energy—vendors calling out, fresh catches displayed on colorful stalls, and an incredible variety of sea creatures swimming in tanks. From fish and shellfish to octopus and crabs, the market is truly alive, offering a fascinating look at the daily rhythm of life by the sea. It’s a place where tradition, livelihood, and the ocean come together, giving you an authentic glimpse into the heart of Busan’s fishery lifestyle. - The time spent at each location may vary depending on the group’s pace.
Spend 1 hour at BIFF Square exploring its famous street food and lively local atmosphere, with time for lunch at your own expense.
Gamcheon Culture Village: This colorful hillside village is one of Busan’s most iconic destinations, known for its maze-like alleys, vibrant murals, and charming pastel houses stacked along the slopes. Once a quiet residential area tucked away in a hidden valley, it has transformed into a lively artistic community filled with creative installations, small galleries, and quirky shops. As you explore, you’ll get a glimpse of how the local residents and artists worked together to turn the old village into a bright, international cultural landmark while still preserving its warm, lived‑in atmosphere. - The walking route is about 600 meters (0.4 miles) along a mostly flat street. If you prefer to take it easy, there are plenty of benches, cafés, and viewpoints where you can relax and enjoy the scenery. - The time spent at each location may vary depending on the group’s pace.
End your journey with a relaxing walk through this charming seaside village, famous for its narrow alleys and beautiful ocean views. Enjoy a complimentary drink at a local café while taking in the seaside scenery.

A great tour. Mimi was knowledgeable and informative. Great stops at the APEC House and fish market. She took us to a wonderful Korean barbecue restaurant for lunch. A great experience.
Everything was great! Easy pickup/drop off, the sights were amazing, good communication with the guide!
Great experience at a good pace. Very clean and comfortable car (good driving!) the guide Anthony was very knowledgable and helpful with all questions. He took his time to show us all the areas with care and without feeling rushed.
I thought the whole thing was rushed. It was supposed to be an 8 to 9 hours tour, but I think it was over in about seven hours. I wish they would give us more time at each location to look around and take pictures. The fish market is basically a very brisk walk to get to the restaurant where we are eating for lunch.
Our day trip in Busan wouldn't have been the same without Mimi. From the moment we started, she made everyone feel welcome and kept a great pace. She shared fascinating local insights that you wouldn't find in a guidebook, and went out of her way to help us with recommendations afterward. Thank you for an unforgettable experience!"
We had a great day exploring Busan with Moon. He was very knowledgeable and was able to show us so many things in Busan. He also recommended and incredible fish place for lunch. My friends and I really enjoyed this tour and recommend it for anyone visiting Busan. They also come pick you up and drop you off at your hotel!
Mimi was so knowledgeable about all things Busan. She was so nice and so much fun. She genuinely smiled and laughed a lot and was very caring to all the travelers in her group tour. We got to see so many things in Busan and learned about the history of this great city, the people, the history, and the delicious food. I would highly recommend this tour and Mimi as your tour guide. She's a great driver in the crazy city traffic, and she will keep you safe. Simply fantastic all around!!!
We had an absolutely wonderful experience on the Busan One Day Tour with Sky Capsule, and a huge part of that was thanks to our amazing tour guide, Suni! Suni went above and beyond to make sure our day was special. She was incredibly accommodating, even rearranging her own schedule to meet our needs and make sure everything worked out perfectly. Her warm personality, genuine kindness, enthusiasm, and thoughtfulness made us feel more like friends than tourists. She was knowledgeable, attentive, flexible, and always made sure we were comfortable and enjoying ourselves. It’s rare to meet someone who puts so much heart into what they do. If you’re visiting Busan, I highly recommend this tour, and especially having Suni as your guide. She truly made our experience memorable. Five stars aren’t enough!

Ryan was fantastic navigating our group in busy and crowded areas of Busan all day long. His deep local historical knowledge and insights enabled us to appreciate each place we visited. Really appreciated his seamless logistics and efficiency while covering all the important parts of the areas. This is an excellent tour if you have visiting Busan only for 2-3 days and don't have your own car.
The tour was fantastic! We truly enjoyed ourselves. Our guide, Ryan, was outstanding.. He was extremely knowledgeable, kind, thoughtful, and helpful. He went above and beyond to make our experience truly special. The tour organizer, BK, was also incredibly helpful and responsive throughout the planning process. I felt we were in excellent hands even before the tour began. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Highly recommended!
Sang is the best tourguide ever! The trip was very enjoyable! Well-arranged!
We had a wonderful time exploring Busan!! Jade was an excellent guide who provided us will lots of history & information throughout the day. He took us through the Jagalchi Market and helped us order an amazing lunch…this wouldn’t have happened without Jade’s guidance! He recommended some great dessert spots at the Gamcheon Culture Village and they were so delicious!! Lastly he treated us to yummy tea & drinks at the of the day with a beautiful ocean view!! Such a great day in Busan!! Highly recommend this tour!!
We had a great trip with Moon as our guide. He was extremely attentive and knowledgeable. He was acutely aware of everyone’s needs. The trip and Moon could not have been better. A++. Thank you
A great way to see the highlights of Busan in one day. Our guide, Moon Jihwa was very knowledgeable and friendly. The sky capsule is a must, and lunch at the fish market was a highlight.
Great small group tour with Bada. He was personable and made the entire trip enjoyable. We covered the major highlights and must-see spots and never felt rushed. Highly recommend!
I went to this tour with my sisters and there’s another group of husband and wife. Small group made the tour very relaxing . Our tour guide Moon was full of information regarding Busan. He answered almost all our questions. We enjoyed his company . Because it’s a small group, we parted almost like friends .
Constant communication, perfect insight, a perfect day! Mr. Moon helped the seven of us experience a lovely day in Busan. His style is quiet and insightful, and was able to read our different needs very well. He was even able to help us order seafood at the Jagalchi Market which we thought we were fully capable of doing. However, his recommendations for seafood exceeded our expectations. I would recommend taking full advantage of this with Mr. Moon. We could not have enjoyed Busan as much as we did without Moon’s directions. You have made our trip a very memorable one!
Our tour guide, Mimi, was so great and catered to my elderly parents. She made sure they were being cared for while my husband and I wandered and explored sites that weren't elderly-friendly. She also took a lot of pictures for us as a group. She explained so much during our drive and picked up and drop off as close as possible to each place on the itinerary so we didn't have to walk far. I highly recommend her and this company!
Distilling Busan down to a single day’s sightseeing is an impossible mission, but if you’re going to try, Moon is the man you want steering the ship. A fun, informative small-group tour with the tireless Captain Moon.
We had the best day out with Jino and our small group! We saw so many highlights it was fun ! I would highly recommend !! Thank you Jino!
We had a wonderful day with Hyun. This was a small tour of Busan with 6 people in a nice clean van with plenty of room. Hyun was so informative and took us to the Sky capsule for our ride along the ocean of Haeundae Beach. We also visited the Temple, Fish markets with a delicious seafood lunch. Cultural villages to explore and a beautiful sunset with complimentary drink to finish off the day! We had so many laughs and all got along so well as we were liked minded travellers. Highly recommend this tour and a big thank you to Hyun.
And overview of Busan. In my opinion, the highlight of the tour was the sky capsule ride! Small group tour with a knowledgeable guide.
A wholesome experience, would definitely recommend!
Our day in Busan was a pleasant surprise despite the enormous amount of rain. Cooper was an amazing guide and was very knowledgeable. The history of the Gamcheon Cultural Village was quite interesting.
This was such an awesome tour! The perfect way to spend the day in Busan! Jade was such a great tour guide, very knowledgeable and funny! He made it such a fun day! Would definitely recommend this to my friends and family!
Despite the rain all day, we had a great time on the one day tour in Busan. Sang is a wonderful guide (and driver) with knowledge and wisdom beyond his years in the industry. Highly recommend if you’re only in Busan for short stay!
Interesting sights with a lot of driving in between. But it was a great opportunity to chat with and learn from our guide Scott.
The experience was deeper and more meaningful than any other viator tour. The tour guide, Sang had a breadth of knowledge and mastery of communication and storytelling skills with a dash of humor. Just as the coffee he shared with us both he and the tour had many sweet and tasty layers that is only possible with an A plus guide. We would choose this tour again in a heart beat!
This tour was really cool. I was fortunate to be paired with a bunch of other solo travelers. I will say if you are looking to get a good sample of what Busan has to offer. I would suggest this.
Young was lovely and helpful tour guide. He was really organised and detailed with information about Busan and itinerary. Highly recommend this tour if you are short on time in Busan and would like to see major sights!
This was a fantastic small group tour and takes you to all of the main sites in Busan. Would highly recommend especially for people travelling solo and want to do a small group tour.
William was fantastic! He met us at our hotel, made pickup easy, and gave us great personal attention. Our small group of six was perfect. He shared interesting facts about Busan, remembered our names, and gave us plenty of time to explore each stop. Friendly, knowledgeable, punctual, and a great guide!
Our group guide was Scott and he was great! He was patient, listened to suggestions from the group and adapted accordingly. He was also excellent in specifying meeting points and stuck to an schedule to visit all the highlights. This was a great tour.
Our small group tour with Danny was excellent. Prior to tour, BK provided great communications with pickup time. We had only two days in Busan and it was the best way to get overview as first timer. Our guide Danny was very accommodating and helpful especially when we requested to stay longer at particular locations. He took time to share the history & culture that we appreciated very much. All in all it was a fun and productive tour.
It was a great tour, our guide was amazing and we got to check off multiple things we wanted to see in one day. Would definitely recommend.
We were a small group that were pick up at Heundae station exit 5 Our guide was Sean a Busan native that showed us Busan as only a native with a deep love of his town can do! From Heundae beach over Gwangan bridge to Gwangali beach and sure the Gamcheon culture village! He took us also to places of incredible vistas and views of view point of 400 m that few organized turs are experiencing! Fish market was an unique and unexpected exp. Also we had plenty of time to visit the famous Temple by the sea Haedong Yongguncsa with its unique views! Was absolutely great
A lovely day out in Busan in spite of the inclement weather. We were taken to many different parts of the city in one day which would have been difficult to reach by public transport. Our guide Young was very informative and it was great to have a locals insight into life in Busan
Scott was an excellent tour guide from start to finish. The tour was well designed and covered all the main sights in the city.
Excellent and efficient introduction to Busan with a personable and patient guide. Comfortable transport. I did not care about the APEC meeting at all and that was a low-light. The coastline at the temple was a highlight. We had outstanding kBBQ for lunch and my favorite was the seed hotteok at the market.
We were driven all over town in a comfortable van. Our guide, William, was very well informed and friendly.
Exceptional day visiting Busan's important sites with Jake. Besides getting us from East to West efficiently, Jake made sure to provide South Korea history, various religions, and current day happenings to paint a great understanding of Korean life. With lots of walking, very helpful to have a driver.
Wonderful experience with Mr. Bada. Thank you for having us. We recommend your company for other visitors too. 😊
Great day exploring the highlights of Busan. It was a small group which was lovely, and led by Sang, who was a wonderful tour guide, giving us lots of information and background to what we were seeing. Busan is such a vast sprawling city that it was the best way to see a lot when you’re not here very long.
I had Jino as a guide and he was very kind, patient, and he gave a lot of insight into the history and culture of Busan and the areas we visited. The van was very comfortable and it was a great way to learn more about the area!
Fabulous tour and guide. William was engaging providing concise information and background. The sites visited gave a good overview of Busan and its history. William was an outstanding guide
The tour was great. Jade did an excellent job of showing us the highlights of Busan. A nice mix of sites, a tasty lunch, and some time for shopping.
Best tour I've been on in my life! Scott Kim the tour guide was the best touring around Busan! It felt more than a tour and was like a group of friends travelling around the city! Great memories made and was 11/10! Hope others can have Scott as a guide!!!
Mia was wonderful. She explained everything to us. We got to see everything that we wanted to cover in Busan. Mia took us to a beautiful cafe to enjoy a classic Americano!!🥰
