Traveler reviews
Happy Sam a Must Have Guide for DMZ
Your guide makes a big difference whether a visit to the DMZ is successful or not. Happy Sam is a must have guide. He is very knowledgeable about the DMZ and history of the North and South. He was fun, thoughtful, aware of guests needs. I recommend to all future visitors to request Happy Sam .
Eye Opening DMZ Experience
Excellent DMZ small group tour and one of the highlights of our trip to Seoul. I'm glad we chose a small group tour as it felt like a more personalized experience. Won, our guide was personable, knowledgeable, and provided great historical context throughout the day. Everything was highly organized from beginning to end. Won was wonderful and would seek him out again if given the chance. Learning about and visiting the 3rd Infiltration Tunnel was certainly a hike but worth the effort. Note - If you are claustrophobic or have heart issues you won't want to walk all the way to the end. There is a significant steep grade with a total of around 700m (if you go all the way to the end). So glad to have the hardhats to wear as I bumped my head 7 times on the rock ceiling. The Q&A session with a North Korean defector added a unique and personal perspective especially again with the small group. On our visit to the observation tower in the DMZ, we were actually able to see North Korea which was surreal. Learning more in depth history was so enjoyable. The suspension bridge provided beautiful views and was interesting but again required significant hiking up and down. I'd highly recommended this small group tour for anyone wanting a deeper understanding of Korea's history but be prepared to walk.
Great tour and great tour guide Spring
Spring was brilliant, really knew her stuff about Korean history and was very helpful and passionate. The tour included a touching meet with someone who was able to share their personal experiences. Much love from Scotland
