Before you book

Is the Busan Private Guided Tour: Enjoy Customized Tours only for you worth it from the Busan cruise port?

A private car with an English- or Chinese-speaking driver-guide, running 4 to 8 hours on a route you choose around Busan. Best for: Couples and families who want four or five of Busan's big sights with no transport planning.

How long a port call do I need for this tour?

About 11 hours. The tour runs 9 hr; add half an hour to get off the ship and keep the hour before all-aboard free. Pick the length to fit your call: the operator says 4 to 8 hours, but the listing books 9, which needs a call of about 11 hours.

Can I cancel if my ship skips the port?

The operator's policy: For a full refund, cancel at least 24 hours before the scheduled departure time.

What should I know before booking?

Does this tour pick up at the cruise pier?

Yes: pickup is at the cruise terminal. Give your ship’s name and arrival time when you book; the operator confirms where the driver or guide waits.

Will I be back on board before all-aboard?

Is the price per person or per vehicle?
