The lesser-known northern DMZ with your own guide and vehicle. Walk through the 2nd Infiltration Tunnel — the widest ever found.

Visit Baengmagoji Battlefield and Cheorwon History & Culture Park before the optional Hantangang Y-Bridge crossing over volcanic cliffs. Hotel pickup/drop-off, bibimbap lunch, and a fully flexible schedule.

5.00It was an amazing and well organized tour. The program was selected perfectly. Jude is a great guide and reallly positive person. I definitelly reccomend to go to Cheorwon and Tunel 2 as it is not so turistic and with this a real experience. We had also an opportunity to try local, healthy and vegetarian lunch, which was very delicious.
Let's do it.
