During my first day at Busan, the day passed quite fast as we reached around 4pm. Obviously, travelling the town on foot now isn't convenient as it takes nearly a 25 minutes taxi ride from Haeundae beach to town.
I read up that Busan's night view is a must see! Best way is to take the Busan Night City Bus Tour if you would like to kill of the hassle of walking around from one stop to one stop. Trust me, it's not easy to do that at night where our time is limited.
Our Guesthouse's staff was kind enough to help us book the Busan Night City Bus. It's 10,000 Won (USD 10) per person. We then head off to Busan Station, as the departure point is near Arirang Hotel, which is just right beside Busan Station!
Busan Station is magnificent during the night! No wonder some dramas actually shoot some scenes there, Poseidon is what of them if I'm not mistaken!
As usual Koreans are as punctual as Japanese, the bus took off on time! You will think buses in Korea are just so cool and comfy! That's just for the tour buses. City buses are as normal as any buses, wait til I post about my bus ride at Jeju Island!
The bus that we sat! Dynamic Busan!
They even have a virtual tour for you to see which stop we are heading to
Our route has 5 stops and we got off at Gwangalli Beach & Geumry Eonsan.
Gwanggali Beach is just beside of the city as well! The picture below is the row of shops which are like just 100m away from the beach!
This is how it looks in day time! Look at the stretch of the Gwanggali beach and the clear sea! Now you know why I love Busan, right?

Just realised I do not have a picture of the majestic 광안대교 Gwangan Daegyo (Dae-gyo: Bridge/大桥)! This is how it looks like when you are at Gwanggali beach, the bridge is just right in front of you!

Our last stop was at one of the highest spot at Busan and this was what came to our eyes, so breath taking!
The wind was quite chilly up there but we still insisted on taking a few pictures! The normal Asian behaviour, huh? Sadly to say the good quality ones are with my cousins. Will share again once I got it from them!
So if you are looking for a comfortable ride to hot spots in Busan and you have not much time, shoot down the idea of being independent to find the hot spots yourself on foot; and save your time by taking this Night City Bus Tour :)
HKT rates: 9/10
Spending: 10000 Won for City Tour Bus
