About Tour Guide Changwoo Y.
Hello, my name is Changwoo from iCON Private Tour in Busan.
I was born and raised in Busan, and my family has lived here for four generations. That’s why I can confidently say that I know everything about this beautiful city better than anyone else.
Some of the key advantages of a private tour include : Customized Itinerary, Personalized Service, Comfort and Privacy, Flexible Time Management, Enhanced Safety and Hygiene, and Special Requests Welcomed.
Pick-up and drop-off are available anywhere in Busan.
I always try to personally guide every tour.
Since this is a fully customized tour, if there are any specific places you would like to visit or particular interests you have, please let us know in advance so we can tailor the itinerary to meet your needs.
I’d love the chance to show you how wonderful Busan is.
Thank you very much!

“Day in busan”
Our guide was fabulous. Traffic was terrible but he stayed with it. Saw fabulous things and changes explained to us what we were seeing. He took us from the east side of the city all the way together the west side. We had lunch together in the fish market at his favorite restaurant. What a wonderful day

Connie! Thank you so much for taking the time to leave such a lovely review! The rainy weather and the holiday traffic during Chuseok definitely made things a little more challenging, but I’m so happy to hear that you still had such a fun and meaningful day. I really enjoyed spending the day with you too. It honestly felt a little like traveling with my own parents. I especially loved how interested you were in Korean history and Busan. Sharing those stories with you was just as enjoyable for me! I really hope we get to see each other again if you come back to Korea someday. Or maybe, who knows, I’ll have a chance to visit Washington, D.C. one day! Haha. Thank you again, Connie and Jim. It was truly a pleasure meeting you, and I hope our paths cross again someday!

Travelling as a family of four, we really appreciated how flexible he was and how he adjusted the experience to suit our needs and pace We visited and experienced some great places. His vehicle was immaculate, spacious and extremely clean, making the journey comfortable and relaxing. Changwoo’s knowledge,and warm personality made the entire experience fun. We would highly recommend Changwoo to families, couples or anyone looking for a friendly and knowledgeable private guide. If you are considering booking him, do it You will have fun and won’t be disappointed.

Thank you so much for your wonderful review! It was truly a pleasure spending the day with your family, and I’m very happy that Jack and Col enjoyed the experience as well. I especially hope I get the chance to see lovely family again someday. I’d love to teach Col a few judo techniques and maybe even have a little JiuJitsu match with him! Wishing your family all the best, and I hope our paths cross again someday!

“A must-do customizable experience ”
Changwoo is amazing. He arrived early for our pick up, was happy to answer all our questions and made wonderful recommendations to our requested places we wanted to visit. He was never rushed but ensured we stayed on time to get to all the venues on time without much wait. His recommendations and knowledge of venues made getting to and on each experience convenient and easy. We rode in a big comfortable SUV and were treated like royalty. His English is excellent and he highlighted many of the venues by providing historical background and context. I enthusiastically recommend Changwoo as your guide and do this experience. It is thenonly way to get around Busan and see as much as you can in one day.

Hello! I’m a local tour guide based in Busan, and I have been guiding international travelers in Korea since 2017. I’ve lived in several countries, including the Philippines, Canada, Ireland, Australia, Papua New Guinea, and Spain. I love meeting new people and sharing Korean culture with my guests. I mainly guide in Busan, Gyeongju, and Ulsan, offering relaxed and flexible tours tailored to each guest’s interests and travel style. I’m also a Bojagi artist, and I offer hands-on classes for guests who would like to experience traditional Korean fabric art and create a special souvenir of their own. Whether you’re interested in local food, history, beautiful scenery, or traditional culture, I’d love to help you discover Korea beyond the typical tourist experience. Let me show you Korea!
