Thanks for the tour! I enjoyed the glimpse in to Koreas history and also understood more the political situation and peoples hopes about Korea. Bridge was a good start to the trip, relaxing and serene. Also, the lunsh at the Unification villiage was tasty and very affordable. The biggest thanks goes to the best and most passionate guide-Julia! Thank you for making this journey a nice memory of my trip to South Korea! It was definately one of my trip highlights!

It was an extraordinary experience that will certainly be remembered for a long time. Although the weather was rather poor, we were able to see all the sights and understand all background in detail. I would particularly like to emphasize the wonderful work of our guide Julie, who made this tour a very special experience with her humorous and competent manner. Recommended at any time 🙏

With round-trip transfers and an English guide, explore DMZ on a full-day tour. Choose between the Mt. Gamaksan or the peaceful Lake Majang Suspension Bridge.

Stroll through Imjingak Park, where history comes alive with the Mangbaedan Altar, a bullet-riddled steam locomotive, and other war memorials.

View North Korean landscapes and cities from Dora Observatory, and walk through the dim 3rd Infiltration Tunnel, a passage once capable of moving 30,000 soldiers per hour.

Visit Unification Village, which offers a glimpse into resilient farmers' peaceful lives under special security, learning their stories and way of life.

Fun fact: Walls of the 3rd infiltration tunnel are still blackened from the coal North Korea smeared on them to disguise it as a coal min
