The DMZ tour was an absolutely amazing experience! It was very well organized and led by an excellent guide, who shared the history of Korea in a fascinating and engaging way. Thanks to him, we gained a much deeper understanding of the complex relationship between North and South Korea and its impact on the present day. We were especially surprised to learn about the historical connections between Korea and Poland, which made the tour even more meaningful and personal. We discovered many things we had never known before. Overall, it was a great atmosphere, full of knowledge and emotions. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting South Korea – the DMZ is definitely a must-see, and hearing the guide’s insights in person makes it truly unforgettable!

    We joined the DMZ tour and it turned out to be one of the highlights of our trip to Korea. Everything was perfectly organized – from pick-up to transport and timing. A special thanks goes to our guide Miel. She made the tour not only informative but also engaging and fun. With her deep knowledge of history and politics, combined with personal insights and a great sense of humor, she managed to explain such a complex topic in a way that kept everyone interested. You could really feel her passion and dedication throughout the day. The stops at the DMZ – from Dora Observatory to the 3rd Infiltration Tunnel and Dorasan Station – were powerful experiences that gave us a much clearer understanding of the Korean peninsula’s history and current situation. Overall, highly recommended! And a big thank you to Miel for making the day truly unforgettable. Greetings from your Turkish friends from Germany 🙏
