4.00The tour takes most of the day but it is worth the drive. You get to see North Korea! There were several stops that gave us an opportunity to learn and explore. Our tour guide AJ gave a great concise overview of the history on how the countries came about. I found it interesting that we had to show our passports as military police came on our coach. The tunnel discovered was long and narrow with a lot of people and was difficult to walk. Fortunately there were hard hats that had to be worn or many would have been bloodied. The suspension bridge was underwhelming and didn’t add much to the trip.
Very educational
