2.Busan’s Best: Sea Temples, Yacht Tour & Sky Capsule Day Tour

★★★★★★★★★★4.8 · 24 reviews · 510 minutes - 9 hours · from $89 a seat

You’ll visit Haedong Yonggungsa Temple, ride the glass Sky Capsule, cruise Busan’s coast by yacht, and explore Gamcheon Culture Village with a live English, Chinese, or Korean guide. Guides such as Kang, Roy, Kris, Yoona, DK, Vincent, and Sunny have helped keep the day organized and added local context.

“DK was a great guide for the trip. It was my favorite tour here in Busan but I’m biased since I like being on yachts a lot. The sea temple was great to experience and the sky capsule ride was peaceful. When exploring Gamcheon I walk across a movie set that was being filmed without realizing. 😅😂 Apparently filming happens here from time to time.”
