It was such a good experience going to the jewels of Busan. Our tour guide Jiwon was really good and very effective in keeping the guests on time! cant wait to go back!

Buy 48H and get twice the value. Because the physical card can be used as a transportation card, the time and place of redemption must be matched. It is very convenient to use and highly recommended.

A very spectacular drone show, with music to watch on the sea. If you have time in the evening, you can participate. It can only be seen every Saturday.

It is really convenient to use the electronic pass. You don’t need to find an exchange office. You can buy it immediately and use it immediately! 48 hours of use is more flexible!

This is my second time using this! If you are going to Busan for the first time, I definitely recommend buying this! It includes most of Busan's tourist attractions, so if you plan your schedule to visit the designated facilities, you can have a perfect Busan trip. However, since there are many activities to see the spectacular sea views, if it rains, the focus will be on spas, so be careful if you don't like spas!

I received a message the next day after booking to confirm the time and seat service. The service was first-rate. No need to exchange tickets for the bus at Seoul Station. It was worth picking up the bus and arriving at Busan Station very quickly. It is worth repurchasing.
