You’ll see Daegu’s highlights without worrying about maps or language barriers—just hop on at Dongdaegu Station and listen to local stories in your language as you ride past markets, parks, and museums. Pause wherever catches your eye (and taste buds), enjoy free wifi onboard, and let yourself drift through city life at your own pace.
I nearly missed the bus at Dongdaegu Station because I got distracted by a street vendor selling hotteok — the smell of cinnamon and sugar just pulls you in. But I made it, ticket in hand, and climbed up to the open top deck. The air was cool but not cold, and there was this low hum of chatter from families and a couple of older folks who seemed to know exactly where they were headed. I didn’t, honestly. That’s why I picked the Daegu City Tour Bus — less stress about directions, more time to just look around.
The first thing that surprised me: you get these headphones for the multilingual audio guide (I picked English, but heard snippets of Japanese and Mandarin too). Our driver waved as we pulled away, and then the city started rolling by — markets with bright awnings, kids waving near Bangcheon Market, even a group of high schoolers laughing at something on their phones. At Cheongna Hill Station stop, an older woman next to me pointed out her favorite bakery (“best red bean bread,” she whispered). I hopped off for a bit just because she made it sound like a secret worth knowing.
Back on board after my snack detour (she was right about that bread), I realized how easy it is to just drift through Daegu this way — no pressure to plan every minute. The bus wound past Eworld and Apsan Park; you could smell pine needles when the windows opened near Apsan Laundry Park. Sometimes the audio would pause for a second and you’d just hear city sounds — scooters buzzing, someone playing guitar under a tree near 2.28 Jungang Memorial Park. It felt like being part of the city without having to rush anywhere.
I didn’t expect to feel so relaxed on public transport — usually buses make me anxious about missing stops or getting lost. Here, you just hop off wherever catches your eye (I got off at Daegu Art Museum too), then catch the next one when you’re ready. The wifi actually worked well enough for me to send photos home in real time. By late afternoon, I was tired but happy — not from walking too much, but from seeing so many small slices of Daegu life all stitched together by this simple ride. I still think about that view from the top deck as we crossed toward Suseong Lake; sometimes travel is just letting yourself be carried along for once.
