3.00The tour is very rushed but you are only allowed 3hrs in the DMZ area. Don’t do the gondola because you won’t have any time. Moon is very passionate and includes good historical videos. She also gives great recommendations. However, I would’ve liked more history and for the guide to slow down. If you are a big history nerd don’t take this tour, but if you want a quick/fun/friendly overview this tour is great.
An unforgettable tour in Korea. Moon, our guide was incredible and made the experience so much better

5.00We absolutely loved the trip, and Tomás is incredibly kind. Moon has so much energy. For those of us who speak Spanish, having a Spanish-speaking guide was incredible for my mom and dad. Moon has amazing energy, and even though we were tired, she was always very kind, took photos of us, and made sure we felt comfortable. She told us not to worry about time and gave us great tips about everything. Tomás also took photos with us, which we really appreciated, and we loved that he taught us some Korean words and explained everything. I truly recommend them. My trip to Korea was great thanks to them they completely changed the experience. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Awesome Time with Moon

5.00We learned a lot during the tour. It was a fascinating history to be shared to the world. The patriotism and endless pursuit to unity and freedom of the Korean Community is heart melting. So much fun getting on a vacation and learning about a nation’s culture at the same time. Hopefully I can go back to Korea and show its very rich culture with my partner in the future. Kamsamamnida!
Great tour guides! Highlight of our trip.
