Busan
The seaside town of Busan is known for its beaches, mountains, and the largest fish market in South Korea! With colorful houses perched on a hill, the town is affectionately dubbed as the Santorini of South Korea. The Gamcheon Culture Village, in particular, is decorated with various murals and art pieces crafted by the residents themselves.
Sample the freshest raw fish available at the Jagalchi Market, take a stroll along the famous Haeundae Beach in the heart of Busan, and end your day along the translucent paths of the Oryukdo Skywalk to catch a breathtaking sunset view.

What to know before visiting Busan
Discover Busan’s highlights and travel rhythm
Busan is a coastal city known for a mix of attraction passes, cable car rides, organised tours and water-based activities — those categories lead bookings on Klook. Demand cycles through the year, with clear busy and quiet stretches that shape when attractions feel lively or relaxed.
Best times to visit for crowds and prices
Klook booking data shows demand peaks in November and bottoms out in August; overall bookings rise in spring before dipping in late summer and rising again into late autumn. Prices are highest in August and drift down to a low in April according to Klook’s price trend, so price and demand diverge: August is relatively quiet but typically more expensive, while April offers lower typical prices even though demand is higher than the August trough. For lower prices and smaller crowds, aim for April; for peak-season atmosphere choose November.
Tips for travellers from Malaysia
Most travellers from Malaysia tend to finalise plans about two weeks ahead, so plan key activities around 13 days before travel, with flexibility to book last-minute up to about 4 days out. For busy months—especially November—locking in popular attraction passes and tours earlier (near the typical or early booking windows) helps secure preferred times; for quieter months you can be more spontaneous. Use Klook to compare options and reserve the experiences you care about in advance when travelling during peak periods.
