How you can spend 3 days in Busan | Watch before visiting Busan!

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):

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!

[@WengStansWorld]

Just got back from Busan. Stayed in Haeundae Beach. HIGHLY recommend visiting Busan. Be sure to check out Busan Tower, Busan Skycruise Gondola over the bay, But so much to see and do in Haeundae. Cabs are really cheap. I have many video's of my visit to Haeundae and Busan if you want an idea of Busan.

[@SeaHam_H]

Thanks!

[@gregrule3882]

Really helpful 😊

[@kevint9139]

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.

[@MariesKawaiiWorld]

It was pretty smooth and easy, and I think it’s nice not have to go through the airport security line. Not as nice and clean as the Shinkansen though, for instance the bathroom. It’s not that kid friendly either.

[@Nour-jd2sk]

WOW so beautiful !!!! I just like that beach, it sounds so relaxing lol

[@roisinohagan1711]

lovely vid - cultural village looks wonderful, bright, quirky...tfs

[@jjj3129]

[@thattragedy]

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

[@MariesKawaiiWorld]

It’s a cute spot to take photos and has a nice view of the harbor.

[@karlaramschmanski1594]

@@MariesKawaiiWorld do you know the name of the building?

[@caseysmith5054]

Great info!

[@MariesKawaiiWorld]

Thanks!

[@hume7171]

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.

[@db90990]

I spent half of 0ne day there in 1982 with my then ex gf

[@ssamtif]

Thank U by advance for this video! 👌🏻💕

[@MariesKawaiiWorld]

You’re welcome! I hope it’s helpful!!

[@ssamtif]

Marie's Kawaii World yeaaah thank u so much!

[@roseforvalentine]

Hi, would you recommend to use stroller for visiting gamcheon cultural village? I plan to visit with my one year old. Not sure if there’s too many staircases there? And how many hours we need to explore that place in moderation ? Appreciate your advise, thanks ! ❤

[@MariesKawaiiWorld]

I saw some strollers but I really think there are too many stairs

[@amyharris4574]

Great video

[@MariesKawaiiWorld]

Thank you!

[@dudedude4375]

Good video

[@randomme7853]

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?

[@chrislidac228]

What website can you book/purchase KTX train tickets from Yongsan station in Seoul to Busan? ?

[@lmnopeace3153]

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?

[@Michael-ko4ee]

Hello Marie, were the train tracks noisy while staying in your hotel room?

[@thegregbekkers]

awesome, keep it up :)

[@MariesKawaiiWorld]

Thank you!

[@nanikore8420]

Hello.. is 1 day enough in busan and what can i do during winter? Im going on early december

[@muktarani692]

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.

[@MariesKawaiiWorld]

Hmm.. I don't really have any particular tips, maybe just general safety tips like don't look at your cell phone while crossing the street and always be aware of your surroundings. If you see someone challenge you look them in the eyes firmly and make them look away first. Korea is pretty safe though so it's great for solo female travelers! I've never had any safety isses. Happy travels!!

[@808slowly]

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.

[@favouriteiswhite9728]

i have tried both to and fro busan. personal opinion, i prefered the srt. cos ktx was kinda compact and more of in the tunnel. whereas srt was slightly spacious and you can see more of the outside. price wise, srt is cheaper. i took the srt at suseo to busan. you can head to suseo and book in advance too!! hope this helps.

[@siragisdiaryforhappyliving4063]

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?

[@MariesKawaiiWorld]

Hi!! August will be peak vacation season so it may be very crowded. English is spoken a lot in Seoul but in Busan less so, but still I think nowadays most people take English in school from a young age so most younger people can speak some English although they may be shy. I think your budget is fine!

[@renmk321]

Any1 could help me, making Korean trip Itinerary for Autumn. 10 days seoul - Busan - Jeju. Thx

[@808slowly]

How is the cosmetic and shopping in general compare to Seoul?

[@MariesKawaiiWorld]

I think in general, Seoul will have more because it’s much bigger and is the main source for where the rest of Korea gets its merchandise. But chain stores and cosmetics will probably be the same. I didn’t shop much in Busan though. And I’m sure Busan has its local designers and brands but not as many as Seoul.

[@sharonit2006]

thanks for the information! where can i buy tickets for busan tour bus?

[@MariesKawaiiWorld]

We bought it inside the train station which is right near the bus stop

[@sharonit2006]

thank you!

[@Johnny-hn9ts]

is Gwangali beach clean enough to swim in?

[@MariesKawaiiWorld]

Personally I wouldn’t swim in the water, but I think everyone has different standards.

[@FOREVERxFORNEVER]

I've seen Train to Busan, no thank you. Beautiful country though, but not taking the chance.

[@MariesKawaiiWorld]

❤️

[@motivatedbymemyselfandi.3830]

I need help from somebody who live in South Korea...do u know anyone who can help me out pls...

[@bernardsusanto4541]

Video is moving a little too fast.

[@nonesuchtofu]

i would not wish to attack friendly pigeons, so it's probably better not to follow the other advice 🙂

[@tianx9275]

Busan is too touristy for me. I like Daegu or Gyeongju better.
