Even though it was a moderate sized group we didn’t feel rush and had sufficient time with each activity. The tour is great for people who want to learn more of the facts and emotions behind the war and DMZ separation. We learned a lot. Thank you!asdf123454321

The trip was amazing. We had booked the morning tour, so we had to get up very early, but it was worth it. First of all, the view was great and then we were back in Seoul in the afternoon. In addition, the tour was very well organised, which was very pleasant, because you only had to get there and everything else was planned by them. Our tour guide Sunny was so nice and funny. She not only explained the history between North and South Korea, but also told many interesting stories of small differences, as well as anecdotes I want to tell my family about. In addition, she could answer any questions and also included some Korean names of places or people in the English explanation. I would definitely recommend the tour, if you also want to learn about Koreas history and some funny anecdotes.U1007NAamyb
