Learn about Korea’s divided history at the Korean Demilitarized Zone (DMZ) on a half-day tour, led by an informative guide. In the morning or afternoon, travel from Seoul to the DMZ, where the country has been split since the Korean War, to visit fascinating sites such as Imjingak Park, the Freedom bridge, the 3rd Infiltration Tunnel and the DMZ exhibition hall. At Dora Observatory, you can even peer through binoculars to observe village life in North Korea. U

We were so fortunate to have Yujeong as our guide for our visit to the DMZ! She picked us up right and time and was so friendly that our kids instantly loved her. She taught us about the Korean history relevant to the DMZ in excellent English, which was so helpful. The DMZ itself is incredible—a definite must-see when in South Korea. We learned so much and enjoyed our tour!

Bryan is a very good tour guide! He is very consistent and speaks great English. He is very welcoming and nice. He accommodated to my group's needs quickly and well. I recommend you book with Bryan because your experience will be even better with him. Overall, this tour was amazing. Definitely a must-do when in Korea. So much fun!!

This was a fantastic tour. I learned so much about Korean history and how the situation came to be what it is today. Our guide was Brian Kim, and he was amazing. Knowledgeable, prompt, kind.
The Observatory was really neat, looking through the binoculars into North Korea (we lucked out having a perfect weather day). The third tunnel was also really neat, and something I knew nothing about previously. Bring your walking shoes (and lungs)!
Highly recommend!!

This was originally planned as a side trip while on a few week stay in the region, but turned out to be the most memorable guided tour I've ever taken. I met my tour guide Lizzy at a local station in Seoul, we were both quickly picked up by a driver after meeting and taken to the DMZ area. She was extremely knowledgeable and well spoken about the current and past events involving the DMZ, and answered all my many questions I had while on the way to the DMZ. From Imjingak, Dora, the tunnel, and the Unification Village it is a very unique place, and in great detail Lizzy explained them all. She also is a great binoculars operator and will help you look north and see things you probably would not find on your own. For what I wanted out of a private tour it exceed all my expectations.

A fully packed tour with lots of stops . Plenty to see .
Our guide Emily was very efficient and made sure we weren’t waiting too long in queues …she altered the order of stops to avoid this.
Her English was passable, it would have been interesting to hear of comparisons today with younger and older Koreans, land use and what the countryside is largely used for. Some crops we had to guess….types of fruit trees etc.
also some more info about those who have escaped the Northern Korean side….we heard more from standing beside other tour group leaders….and we googled some interesting articles later.

We had an absolutely delightful time on the tour. We had Brian Kim who is an absolute legend. He was extremely thoughtful and made sure we had the best experience, looking at everything, taking photos of our group, getting us discounted gondola tours, man was doing the most. He was also very knowledgeable in the conflict and history of the DMZ & also made sure we all were understanding what he was saying & allowed us to ask lots of questions about anything Korea related.
Would highly recommend as you avoid the hassle of big groups and having to wait for everyone at every single desination & not having much freedom to walk around and ask questions.

Great day out. Got to see all the sights that we wanted to. The 3rd invasion tunnel was great and the view into Korea was really cool. Our guide Brian Kim was wonderful and gave us a great understanding of the DMZ and Korean History. Travel was super easy and seamless, would highly recommend
