A must do when you're in Seoul. Our tour guide Ray was amazing - we lucked out in getting him - really informative in explaining the local nuances and situation surrounding the DMZ. I think the tour wouldn't have been as enjoyable if it wasn't for him.
Bar raising experience. Hana, our tour guide shared the rich history and the desire for re-unification. Love peace and thank you for the experience.
