DMZ Private Tour

5.00Soo did a great job on our tour of the DMZ. We started the day at Majang Lake on the beautiful suspension bridge and then made our way to the DMZ. He was very knowledgeable about the history and eager to show us the sights. The DMZ is important to our world history and even more so to Korea’s rich history, and Soo makes sure that you really understand each monument and the significance of the DMZ itself. This was my second tour with Soo and I highly recommend him.
Amazing Local Guide

5.00Our local guide, Soo, was very punctual, informative and so easy going while still keeping us on schedule to see everything. We had a great time with Soo and we were so impressed with his knowledge of timing when to avoid overcrowded areas, we booked another tour with him! We will definitely return and book another tour with Soo!

5.00Our second tour with Awesome Tours. The best experience. Be prepared to walk and get sweaty if you will go in the tunnels it’s very steep. The tunnel is not recommended to kids or have health issues. It was a great experience and highly recommend the tours. Very flexible so if you skip the tunnels you can go to the lake or suspension bridge which we didn’t do but was an option for this tour.
A private guide is much more valuable than an excursion from a cruise ship

5.00My wife and I are traveling on a Regent Asia cruise. One of our stops was in Seoul. My wife asked if we could visit the DMZ, I guess she had watch one too many MASH reruns. Well I booked a trip with Brand X tour agency also from Viator. I called on the first day of our cruise to confirm our pick up and a send X said we can’t pick you up at the Incheon International Cruise Terminal. I said why as they had accepted the tour. They said they can’t and refunded my money. Given we were only 6 days away from our docking in Seoul, I found his new agency. They warned me it would be hard to get tickets to the DMZ on short notice, but Soo our tour guide never gave up and with an effort only matched by trying to get tickets to popular K-Pop group he came through! From The start Soo was awesome in answering my wife’s 10,000 questions and showing us all there is to see at the DMZ. He was so good I kept Soo to help us see Seoul the next day. We had 2 great days and learned an incredible amount about Korea’s history. We would recommend Soo To everyone who wants a personal and personable tour guide! I will be telling all my friends who head to Korea!! Thanks Soo!!’
Great tour - do not hesitate to book, and ask for Soo!

5.00We had an amazing 2 day tour of both DMZ and Seoul with Soo. One of the best guides we have ever had….. smart, focused, great customer service, attention to detail, great pics, very knowledgeable etc etc. Do not hesitate to book this company, and especially Soo.
Must experience tour of the DMZ

5.00What an amazing tour of the DMZ. Our tour guide, Hyun Soo was very knowledgeable, easy going and spoke English very well. We went to Majang Lake, Imjingak Pyeonghoa-Nuri park, The third tunnel, Dora observatory, and Unification village. It was non-stop and would highly recommend this tour. We have 2 young daughters and I'm glad they were able to experience walking through the tunnel, seeing North Korea with our own eyes, and learning all the history of the Korean war. Reasonably priced and the private tour made it so much better.
