4.00Visiting the DMZ was an important part of our trip to Korea. This bus trip provided a good explanation of the history & geography that resulted in the DMZ and the ongoing political situation, with an inperson experience. Our guide was very knowledgeable and easy to understand.

5.00We left Seoul at eight o’clock, after a pleasant one hour drive we arrived at the ticket station. Luckily we were able to get tickets because it was very busy. Our guide AJ told useful information with great humor. She spoke good English so it was easy to follow. Impressive to enter the zone and be able to look at North Korea. Highly recommended!

5.00AJ from seoul city tour was amazing! She’s extremely responsive through text. At one point i got separated from the group and missed part of the information tour. She graciously repeated what she had said to the bigger group. Her personality is so fun too! Highly recommended!
