The cafe during the tour was a nice pit stop and allowed the group to explore Ihwa Mural Village. Aside from Jun and the awesome group of tourists that I was fortunate to be joined by, the dinner after the hike was the highlight of the itinerary for me. If you're interested in this tour based on the description, do yourself a favor and book it!”

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 127 reviews · from $109

Review of Busan’s night yacht cruise, fireworks, mountain lookout, and Cinema Centre, with honest advice on value, weather, guides, and what to expect.

“Tour was canceled because I'm the only one who signed up. Was given then option to pay another $80 for private tour or reschedule. Was only in Busan for 1 night and should never be asked to pay more to take the same tour experience. Customer service was great at communicating at least but can't give more than 1 star since the tour didn't even happen as it should have.”
