“This was such a fun trip. Sherry is a terrific tour guide! We saw the major sights of Busan, and the bus tour made it so convenient to get from place to place since Busan is so spread out. We are capable travelers who know how to DIY with public transportation, but it’s also nice to just sit back and relax and take all the legwork out of planning and getting to all the places! Sky Capsule and Gamcheon Culture Village were our favorites. It can be hard to get Sky Capsule tickets, so this is a great way to do that.”
