I must buy a pass every time I go to Busan. Last time I changed it near my accommodation in Seomyeon. This time I took KTX to the second floor of Busan Station and I can change it immediately. It only takes two minutes and I just need to attach my passport. It’s very easy to use. You can travel to at least four or five spots in 24 hours. As long as you visit two major attractions, you’ll get your money back. It’s very cost-effective! Highly recommended.

We had the best view of Busan with minimal to no crowd at all. In just one night, we were able to go to areas that would have taken us the whole day or 2 to achieve.
David was a wonderful guide and photographer. Each stop we took overlooked historical areas which built Busan--all of which were eagerly shared by David.
Our pictures, they were professionally taken. David guided us throughout the picture taking process (from where to stay, how to pose, where to look, etc).
Overall, a 5/5 experience!

If you have limited time to explore Busan, I think this trip is for you. You will get to explore some of the tourist attractions on the east and west side of Busan in a single day. Im happy that Hawon, our english tour guide, is giving us some tips and useful knowledge about the place that we visited.
