Your Busan travel guide is here! In this video, I share with you how you can spend 3 days in Busan (essentially a long weekend). If you are planning to travel to Busan, make sure to watch until the end, because I will tell you how to get around, where to stay, and how to get from Seoul to Busan. I will share with you everything I learned when I planed a family trip to Busan with 2 young children. If you plan to travel with kids, you may find this video helpful as well. Note that Busan is not very stroller friendly. We used our baby carrier and did not bring a stroller. If you want to see more details about my trip, please check out my Busan travel vlogs (playlist linked below):
We traveled from Seoul to Busan this spring.

How many hours does it take from Seoul to Buan ???
I just got back from my trip to Seoul and I used so many of your tips! We are planning a trip to Busan in the fall so I am definitely adding these videos to my favorites!
Awwe thank you for the shout out at the end of the video. So glad that I can support your channel 🙂
I am going to visit Busan this summer in July, I will def visit these places, thank you for including directions and how to get around too!! Awesome :))
Thank … I come to Busan the 5 july for 10 days !!! if i can find guide will be great !
Great video
2:45 Did not know there's a observatory deck at Jagalchi. I was totally gonna give that place a miss as I only know there's one other observatory at Lotte Building nearby
Thank you this was helpful I'm going to South Korea this September and I had no idea about what to do in Busan you're awesome
Great info!
awesome, keep it up 🙂
Really nice video ^^ I'll be travelling to Seoul & Busan next year. Thank you for sharing!
thank you for sharing the wonderful sites in Busan. Looking forward to visit these places.
very useful, thank you!
How is the cosmetic and shopping in general compare to Seoul?
Hello Marie, were the train tracks noisy while staying in your hotel room?
What’s the difference with SRT, Korail and KRT? I thought the KRT was the only bullet train. They seem to be similar in terms of length of time to Busan.
thanks for the information! where can i buy tickets for busan tour bus?
I need help from somebody who live in South Korea…do u know anyone who can help me out pls…
Wow I just got done watching this video!! I must I enjoyed for very I'm on going to Korea in September for my birthday I had Seoul as my top pick but after seeing this video I may have to change my plans!! I'm differently keeping Busan in mind!! Thanks so much for sharing!!🐼🐼🐼🐼
Hy Marie thanks a lot the video. Is August a good month to visit South korea / Busan? Im from Bangladesh and Im more comfortable in English, but is the language well spoken there? The city looks great and feeling really interested to visit the country as Tourist 🙂 Also, please advice, as a single traveler, how much I should plan for Busan? is 300USD OK?
those bus tickets are great!! Busan has a lot of great korean food spots. I just uploaded one!
is Gwangali beach clean enough to swim in?
I will be visiting Busan in Sept and I feel like this was super helpful. Thank you and I will check out your link and probably follow some of the very helpful suggestions you made. My group of 4 look forward to our trip after our visit to Seoul. Thanks again
Really perfect Busan guide video!
This is very helpful. Thank you for sharing this Marie. I found your advice about choosing the hotel location as my take away for my trip to Busan in Oct.
Any specific tips for solo female travellers. I’m really excited to go but also nervous at the same time as I don’t speak the language.
Greatly appreciate you spelling out the names of the locations, including the directions, and links. 🙂 Love the practical information regarding modes of transportation as well.
How was the train ride from Seoul to Busan? Debating between flying vs train. Thank you.
Love this video! I think this has been the most helpful video of Busan I have seen!
Much respect
Hello.. is 1 day enough in busan and what can i do during winter? Im going on early december
thank you for this video!
I’ve been there. Nice place.
great video thanks
Video is moving a little too fast.
Hopefully Rona goes away so I can come back. Have some friends I'd like to visit again. Busan is where I will go!! 🎶
I'm traveling this summer hopefully—in which it'll likely be Seoul or Busan. Where would you say a fifty year old single black male should venture first for vacation time? I've heard the you tuber—1masterteacher—inform, "I've never seen more black men get married any where than Korea". What is the best place in Korea for black men? I'm in love with Korean women!! The culture is amazing!! I'm certain you'll be honest.
Busan is too touristy for me. I like Daegu or Gyeongju better.
I've seen Train to Busan, no thank you. Beautiful country though, but not taking the chance.
i would not wish to attack friendly pigeons, so it's probably better not to follow the other advice 🙂
I spent half of 0ne day there in 1982 with my then ex gf
Love your video and all the information and links provided .Thanks a lots!!!
We are going next week!
Hi! I have a question about Korail. How many days pass did you bought? Example, the 2 day pass, does that mean the pass is only available for 48 hours or any 2 dates that you are travelling with the KTX?
How much time would you recommend someone allot for Haeundae Beach area? I’m going in the spring with friends (all of us are in our early 30s, no kids). Is a half day enough?
Going there next month for the first time. Thanks for the video, very detailed and useful information.
