First time visit in Busan

Hi! I will be coming to Busan in mid-April from the cruise ship %26#39; Legends of the Seas%26#39; for a day.



1. Any suggested itineraries to do in a day.



2.Is there any english-speaking tourguide%26#39;s services available on the pier?



Also I would like to do some shopping such as Korean skincare products, Korean Ginseng (Insam), chocolate and tea leaves. Any recommendation on the nearest shopping centre. Is there a shop called %26#39;ARITAUM%26#39; in Busan?





Your feedback will be much appreciated.



First time visit in Busan


I think you will arrive in Busan International Ferry Terminal.



Then you stop by information center and get a map of Busan.



I recommend you to go to Gwangbokdong which is not far from terminal.(10min by taxi)



At Gwangbokdong area, visit Yongdusan park, Jagalchi fish market and Gukje market.



There is a Aritaum shop in Gwangbokdong area. This is the address of the shop. (부산 중구 창선동1가231-1



)



I think you can find some Insam at Gukje market.





I am not sure how long you gonna stay in Busan.



But let me tell you some more spots other than Gwangbokdong.



Haeundae beach and Seomyeon(shopping street).





Refer to this web page for more info on Busan.

Thank you so much for replying:)



The cruise ship will be docked as from 7h00 till 22h00. I %26#39;ve heard that there is a free shuttle bus who can take passengers to the city centre on the above-mentioned attractions. Could you please confirm? Do the taxi drivers speak English?



Thank you for your input:)
