A fantastic trip with our guide, Chloe. very efficient transfer, fantastic English. The suspension bridge was beautiful. overall the trip was very informative. the tunnel was hard work on the way out, but well worth it. there is a good gift shop at the village at the end. and there are toilets at every stop of the tour. highly recommend.

our guide Roy from North Korea gave us a good explanation en route to various destination. recommended food and sacks. we are didn’t get to the observatory as they are closed during this hostile period.

It was a good paced tour. The guide has provided stories as much as possible, this tour does not take you close to th border and you won't be able to see North Korean Soldiers.

our guide, Erica, was very friendly and informative. Due to recently escalating tensions between north and South Korea, we weren’t allowed to take photos of North Korea or the third tunnel. Our guide was able to provide us with photos she had taken over the years of North Korea from the observation tower. We were given a decent amount of time at each stop on the itinerary. We were also provided with binoculars at the observatory to get a better look at North Korea.

The tour was comprehensive and well-planned out. With the best guide, Julie, was so informative and energetic! Definitely can feel her passion and enthusiasm which helps our energy level as well since the tour starts rather early (but worth it). Highly recommend the Majang Lake route! Date of experience: November 2024

Pickup instruction was clear and commmunicated 1 day before trip start. Guide Kim was very helpful to help with phototaking. The iternary is just nice for a half day tour of DMZ. not suitable for old folks with bad knees. there are some steep slopes to the new observary tower and 3rd tunnel. impossible for them.
