What is the DMZ – an exciting experience like no other

While the Cold War happened a long time ago, Korea is the only country that still remains divided as a consequence. The DMZ lies on the border between the North and the South. This is the most heavily fortified border in the whole world, so don’t miss the chance to see it!

OPTIONAL : Gondonla

Gondola tour is one of our most popular DMZ tours and can also be an excellent alternative to our DMZ Tour when political or military events restrict access to some of the stops on those tours.

OPTIONAL : Red Suspension Bridge

The Gamaksan Red Suspension Bridge is the longest suspension bridge in Korea at 220m long and 1.5m wide. It can hold up to 900 adults and is constructed to withstand 30 meters per second winds and earthquakes of up to 7 magnitude. Its stunning scenic views make it the perfect spot to capture beautiful photos, and it is always well-received.

DMZ tour with Hana

Hana was our guide, she is very positive and informative. Even though I came alone she made me feel very included. She has a lot of knowledge about the different places we visited and she also shared her family’s story with the division of korea which was very touching. I really recommend booking with her. The places were also very nice to visit, if the weather is good the lake bridge is very beautiful and the gondola’s view is very nice too. #1

Fantastic experience and well priced. Emily, our tour guide, was a wealth of information regarding the DMZ and its history. Walking the tunnel was a highlight.
