Although Busan features convenient public transportation, keep in mind that it takes a lot of time to visit different attractions, including transfer. If you want to experience Busan’s diversity while reducing your travel time, use the Busan City Tour Bus. It will quickly and comfortably take you from one place to another in Busan.

Busan City Tour operates two types of tour buses. One is Busan Tourism Innovation (BUTI) Bus for Red Line, Green Line, Blue Line running from Busan Station to Gijang Market via Gwangalli and Haeundae. The other is the Jumbo Bus for a loop tour of Taejongdae Park, departing from Busan Station, traveling through Taejongdae Park and Oryukdo Islets via Yeongdodaegyo Bridge, and returning to Busan Station. Busan Station is the starting point for both tours.

The Red Line tour goes from Busan Station to Haeundae. Departing from Busan Station, you will first cross Busanhangdaegyo Bridge. As it is a very high bridge, the thrilling view when looking down at the sea from the bus’s second floor will make you feel like going on a ride. Then, the bus passes through the world’s only UN Memorial Cemetery and the Busan Museum. It will soon reach Yonghoman Sightseeing Boat Terminal, where you can transfer to Green Line. It then travels through colorful Samick Beach Apartment, Gwangalli, and Dongbaekseom Island, and arrives at Haeundae Beach, where you can transfer to Blue Line. The bus continues traveling through Busan Cinema Center, Busan Museum of Art, and Gwangandaegyo Bridge, ultimately getting to the final stop and starting point, the Busan Station. This line boasts the longest course.

Green Line is for a course stretching from Oryukdo Islets to Igidae Cliff. The views of Igidae Cliff, seen from the bus, give a completely different feeling from walking. The changing panorama seen from Oryukdo Skywalk ensures a breathtaking coastal view.

Blue Line provide the highlights of the city tour, departing from Haeundae Beach. Their courses, which focus on places where there is no metro station, pass through Busan’s most popular attractions. Bear in mind that you do not have an opportunity to ride a double-decker bus because the Blue Line course consists of lots of hill roads.

Blue Line, departing from Haeundae Beach, travels through Dalmajigil Road, Cheongsapo Port, and Songjeong Beach to Haedong Yonggungsa Temple and Busan National Science Museum. As its name suggests (Blue), it clearly displays the quintessence of the coastal bus drive. allows you to enjoy Ananti Cove, where the ocean becomes your front yard and Gijang Market that shows the folksy atmosphere of Gijang’s coastal waters. You will never get tired of the charm of Gijang’s coast, where the East Sea and the South Sea meet.

The Jumbo Bus tour is centered around Taejongdae Park. After the bus departs from Busan Station, it crosses Yeongdodaegyo Bridge to enter Yeongdo. It travels through the major attractions in Yeongdo, heading toward Oryukdo Islets and United Nations Memorial Cemetery in Korea via Busanhangdaegyo Bridge. After the bridge, it continues to pass through Namhangdaegyo Bridge, Songdo Beach, and Nampo-dong, finally ending at Busan Station. The biggest benefit of the Jumbo Bus course is traveling through Yeongdodaegyo, Busanhangdaegyo, and Namhangdaegyo Bridges in one trip, so you can truly enjoy the diversity of Busanhang Port.

Other pleasures presented by Busan City Tour are being guided by the drivers who use the interesting Busan dialect and picking out destinations you want to visit. It’s like a gift set that helps you find the full experience of the Busan tour.

7Igidae Coastal Trail the best hiking trail in Busan

“Igidae” refers to the beautiful bedrocks consisting of delicate rocks in the eastern sea that the Jangsanbong Peak of Yongho-dong, Nam-gu, faces. The name “Igidae” stands for the two gisaeng (female professional entertainers in Korean) from the Suyeong district who sacrificed their lives. During the Japanese invasion in Korea, when Japan conquered Suyeongseong Fortress and held a feast to celebrate their victory, two gisaeng, who are taken to the feast, grabbed a drunken Japanese commander and jumped into the sea. The Igidae area was once closed for military operation reasons, but since 1993, it has been open to the public. At present, it contains dense forests that are difficult to meet in urban areas and is kept clean to serve as habitats for wildlife. Because of its clear water, the place is perfect for fishing.
