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!

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!

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!

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.

We love the engagement photos we got back from Taeyoung. He was helpful and patient with us. Would highly recommend doing a photoshoot with him even if you are a foreigner. His English is very good and he knows all the best photo spots as well as how to pose.

I had a snapshot taken along with my Hanbok rental! They confirmed the meeting place and my requests in advance, which made the photoshoot go smoothly. They guided me to various spots, including a tour of Gamcheon Culture Village. Since it was a hot summer day, I changed outfits midway through, and they were happy to accommodate. Communication was done via a mobile app, which worked perfectly. The photos were sent to me quickly, and I was able to review them right away. It was a wonderful experience, and I highly recommend using their service if you visit Gamcheon Culture Village!

What to know before visiting Busan
What to expect in Busan
Busan’s top activities are led by attraction passes, followed by cable cars, tours, water activities and playgrounds — a mix that suits both sightseeing and family days out. Demand on Klook follows a clear annual rhythm: November is the busiest month, with a strong surge, while August is the quietest. Use that pattern to pick your vibe — lively festival-style visits in November or calmer beachside days in August. Based on Klook booking data, plan around those highs and lows. Decide whether you want peak-season atmosphere or quieter, lower-cost travel.
Best months to visit Busan
November stands out as the peak month for demand on Klook, with bookings rising sharply, while August records the trough in visitor interest. Prices move differently across the year: the priciest month on Klook median hotel rates is August, and the lowest median price is in April, so crowds and prices diverge — August is quiet but pricier, April offers lower prices with growing demand. For smaller crowds and lower typical prices, consider April; for peak-season atmosphere, November is the pick.
| Month | Demand Level | Typical Price |
|---|---|---|
| January | About average | MYR 154 |
| February | Very quiet | MYR 166 |
| March | Quieter than usual | MYR 162 |
| April | Peak demand | MYR 134 |
| May | Busier than usual | MYR 154 |
| June | Busier than usual | MYR 138 |
| July | Quieter than usual | MYR 162 |
| August | Very quiet | MYR 174 |
| September | Quieter than usual | MYR 174 |
| October | About average | MYR 162 |
| November | Peak demand | MYR 166 |
| December | Busier than usual | MYR 162 |
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 shows a clear split in typical nightly hotel rates across districts: Jung-gu is the most affordable with a typical nightly rate of MYR 260, while Gijang is the priciest at MYR 685, a gap of roughly 62% between them. The lower end tends to suit budget-conscious travellers and those prioritising saved accommodation cost for more experiences. The pricier end suits travellers who prefer more upscale hotels and room options. Use Klook booking data to match your budget and travel style when choosing which district to book.
Tips for travellers from Malaysia
Most travellers from Malaysia book a bit ahead on Klook — typically around 13 days ahead — while the earliest planners lock things in about 25 days out, so plan accordingly around Busan’s busy months. If you like flexibility, many experiences are still available close to travel, but during November’s peak demand it pays to book earlier. Klook booking data indicates last-minute bookings do happen, with many travellers booking within 4 days of travel, yet advance planning reduces the risk of limited availability. Book activities and passes on Klook once your dates are set to secure preferred times and options.
