It was a half-day tour, but I was very satisfied with the content! Our guide, Kim, explained things in Japanese in an easy-to-understand way, and I discovered a lot of new things. At first, I didn't even know there was a DMZ tour, but it was so good that it became the best memory of my trip to Seoul!

Honestly one of my favourite days in Seoul! I had the most amazing time and the tour was so informative yet fun. Miel did an amazing job at teaching us about the relationship between the the North and South and was very engaging, happy and helpful throughout the entire day. Would recommend to everyone coming to Seoul and thank you so much Miel for the amazing tour!

It was a very good experience, our tour guide spoke Chinese very well and was very experienced. The weather is very good, and the sea view of Geoje Haegonggang is very beautiful to take pictures. The outer island of Potania is a private island, but the facilities on the entire island are complete, so you won’t be too tired to walk around, and it is also a good place to take pictures. The Cicada Castle, built to protect against typhoons, is also a very interesting place. Because there are so many islands in Busan, I highly recommend this itinerary if you don’t have a car and want to see more attractions!

In the past, there were tours that went to Panmunjom, but now, due to various circumstances, you can only go as far as the DMZ. The local guide carefully explained to me again the things I already knew about the battles between the two countries during the Korean War, which made me even more interested. The weather was very good and I was able to see a lot of things, such as the North Korean cityscape and the national flag that people competed to raise high. There are still natural restrictions on the ground, such as military guards and the need for a passport to join tours, but I think it would be difficult to go there without a tour. I would definitely like to join the Panmunjom tours once they resume. The bus driving was a bit rough 😅

Although the tour was affected by bad weather, we were lucky to have Nancy as our tour guide. She was super friendly, helpful and explained the history of the North and South Korea very thoroughly. You can tell she is really passionate in her job. The tour was well planned and all the activities were executed on time.
