You just have to claim the pass in Busan Station and the counter is just in the center. We thought of the color coding (blue and purple) that would limit the activities (24h vs 48h) but the ladies in the counter told us that we can avail all the activities regardless if blue or purple… We availed [the 24-hour pass] with the Skyline Luge, Lotte World, Busan Science Museum, Sky X Busan, and the SpaLand (very worth it after a very long day)!” Read more Visit Busan Pass reviews here.

How much money can you save with a Visit Busan Pass?

Visit Busan Pass is designed to help travelers spend less on their trip. With a 24-hour or 48-hour pass, you will be able to enter any of the 30+ attractions for free.

But just how much money can you save? One way to look at is by getting the cost of visiting the most popular attractions with AND without Visit Busan Pass. So let’s say I’m adding the following 4 attractions to my Busan itinerary for 2 days, here’s how much it will cost me:

visit-busan-pass-map
Visit Busan Tower, one of the free attractions included with Visit Busan Pass.

Without Visit Busan Pass, the cost to visit just these 4 attractions is around $90. However, if I purchase a 48-hour Visit Busan Pass, I only need to pay around $54, so I get to save around $36!

3. Mobile Visit Busan Pass (24 Hours)

visit-busan-pass-city-tour-bus-busan-tower-lotte-world

Unlike the first two, the next 4 options below are the mobile version of the Visit Busan Pass. The main benefit of getting the Visit Busan mobile pass is that you can link it to the Visit Busan Pass app and use your phone to enter the free attractions!

I don’t have to worry about when to use it because it’s flexible. only thing is you need to check the schedule of the attraction. for the blueline beach train I recommend you to go early so you have a seat on the first row for the beautiful scenes of the beach. Also handy to know that you can combine with x in the sky because it’s next to mipo station. we did the 2 ways ride so then you go back to mipo for x in the sky ;)”
