Amazing experience. I can’t imagine a better company to book through. Jin runs his business with excellence and is invested in his guests during the experience. We hope to book with Jin again next time we are in Korea!!

This class and owner/instructor were the best experience in Busan! Super personable, only 4 people in class, and we made very local dishes vs. generic ones. I loved the depth of detail she went into and made it all feel so accessible!

I highly recommend this activity with if you want an authentic and great food experience 😊
Our guide told us to call him “Uncle Busan,” which I thought was really cute. During the market tour he explained Korean food culture, and since my companion and I are vegan, he pointed us to vegan foods and warned us about dishes that looked vegan but weren’t. The market is bustling, so he told us to take photos of anything we wanted to ask about and later answered every last question.
After the tour we took the subway to the cooking place. Uncle Busan showed us how to prepare the ingredients and then we cooked one meal at a time out of the three dishes we picked beforehand. After every meal we took a break to enjoy it before continuing to the next one, which made the experience feel relaxed and enjoyable. All three meals were delicious… or “mashisoyo” as Uncle Busan taught us 😝
At the end he gave us containers for leftovers and a nice welcome gift bag. I definitely recommend this experience!

Even though I can't speak English or Korean, the instructor taught me in various fun ways. I'm glad I got to experience it. The instructor is very cute and has a wonderful smile! The classroom is also stylish and gives a sense of Korean culture.
Korean food was interesting, with new discoveries, and above all, it was incredibly delicious! The trivia was the best!
I will definitely visit again. Thank you very much!

An super fun Busan experience! When coming to Busan, I always wanted to do something local and chat with the residents, but it's hard to have that kind of experience when you're constantly on the go while traveling. So, I signed up for a Busan seafood pancake tour. To my surprise, the chef said we were the first group of Chinese guests to make pancakes at his place. During the process, the tour guide first took us for a half-hour stroll along the Igidae coastal walking path to experience the joy of hiking like a Korean. Then we went to make the pancakes. The feeling of making them ourselves was amazing, and the chef also prepared two high-protein dishes for us to taste. The dinner was very healthy. I recommend this to friends visiting Busan who want a different kind of experience.

It was a great alternative when you want to visit Japan and South Korea at the same. The room was tidy and had basic necessities. A convenience store was present however, it would be advisable to bring food since choices are limited.

Buying tickets in advance is convenient, as you won't have to worry about not getting a ticket. However, if you arrive early at the station, you cannot change your departure time on the spot. Also, the platform only opens 15 minutes before departure, so there's no need to arrive too early. Overall, still recommend book ticket in advance for peace of mind.

What to know before visiting Busan
What Busan is best known for
Busan is a coastal city where travellers book a lot of attraction passes, cable cars and tours year-round, with water activities and playgrounds also popular; this ordering follows Klook booking data. Demand rises strongly in the summer: July is the busiest month according to Klook bookings, while February is the quietest. Use this to plan whether you want beach-and-festival atmosphere or a calmer city visit. For first-time visitors torn between crowds and value, pick the quieter months for lower demand — that’s the main decision to make when choosing travel dates.
Best time to visit and price patterns
Klook booking data show peak visitor numbers in July and much lower demand in February, with demand climbing through late spring and peaking in summer. Prices on Klook move separately: nightly medians are highest in April and May and fall to their low in June. That means crowds and prices don’t always align — July is busiest but April–May can be pricier. For lower prices and smaller crowds, consider June or the quieter autumn months; for peak-season atmosphere choose July.
| Month | Demand Level | Typical Price |
|---|---|---|
| January | About average | HKD 304 |
| February | Very quiet | HKD 242 |
| March | Very quiet | HKD 265 |
| April | Busier than usual | HKD 335 |
| May | Busier than usual | HKD 335 |
| June | Peak demand | HKD 211 |
| July | Peak demand | HKD 320 |
| August | Busier than usual | HKD 304 |
| September | Busier than usual | HKD 304 |
| October | Quieter than usual | HKD 304 |
| November | Quieter than usual | HKD 242 |
| December | Quieter than usual | HKD 296 |
Demand is bookings in that month compared with a typical month, from historical Klook booking data, grouped into the demand levels above; typical price is the median paid on Klook in that month; prices are shown with their currency code. Based on Klook booking data, July 2025 – June 2026.
Where to stay in Busan
Klook booking data show Jung-gu is the most affordable district on average, with a typical nightly rate around HKD 499, while Gijang is the priciest at about HKD 1,318; the gap between them is roughly 62%. Cheaper districts often suit travellers who prioritise budget, easy dining and simple city access; pricier districts tend to suit those wanting more space, quieter surroundings or a premium stay. Use these typical nightly figures from Klook booking data to decide whether to save on lodging or upgrade for comfort.
Tips for travellers from Hong Kong
On average travellers book experiences on Klook about 9 days ahead, while the earliest planners book around 26 days out; Klook booking data show some last-minute options remain up to 1 day before. Because typical booking is more than a week ahead, treat your Busan trip as a short-term planned outing — lock in must-do activities sooner rather than later, especially in the peak months. It’s straightforward to secure tours and passes on Klook: book ahead for busy dates, browse flexible options for quieter months, and use Klook to compare typical prices and availability.
