We truly appreciated his patience, humour, and dedication—made the DMZ tour smooth, informative, and memorable!
Seamless booking experience. Tour guide was amazing and passionate
Terrific tour for our family of 5 adults. Our #1 tour guide Hana was great! Her own personal family history relating to the area added a personal touch and more significance to the historic details and stories shared at the different sites.
This tour tour covering the DMZ and suspension bridge was well organised and our guide Hana made it a fun and enriching day.
The tour went pretty well with the help of our tour guide Kelly. She delivered all the information about the places we went clearly and in depth. She was also very helpful in telling us what we can do and what we can’t do within the facilities.
Had a fantastic time on this tour! Learned a ton about Korea’s history and culture, saw some really cool landmarks with great views, and got awesome pics and souvenirs. Tour guide Lina shared with us lots about each spot, and gave us plenty of time to check things out.
