Itinerary
Meet your tour guide at City Hall station and transfer to Paju, takes about 90mins by car. Imjingak is the starting point of DMZ tour. The park was built in 1972 to console those from both sides who are unable to return to their hometowns, friends and families because of the division of Korea. Next visit will be the Bunker Exhibition that actually used during the war on June 25th in a museum format. Here, you can see guns and bulletproof helmets that were used directly in the war. This program is uniquely offered by Unni Tour and not by other travel agencies. Then tour moves to The bridge of Freedom, the last bride between South and North Korea.
Tour continues to The 3rd Infiltration Tunnel, where was apparently designed for a surprise attack on Seoul from North Korea. We will actually be going in the tunnel until the limited area. he South Koreans have blocked the actual Military Demarcation Line in the tunnel with three concrete barricades. Tourists can walk as far as the third barricade, and the second barricade is visible through a small window in the third. No pictures allowed. Then, we move to DMZ Theatre and Exhibition hall.
Dora Observatory is on the South Korean side of the 38th parallel. Situated on top of Dorasan (Mount Dora) in Paju, the observatory provides scenic views across the Demilitarized Zone. Visitors can see the North Korean territory through binoculars from the 304 square feet, 500-person capacity observatory. Next step will be Dorasan Station situated on the Gyeongui-Jungang Line, formerly connection railway between South and North Korea. It is the last station of Gyeongui-Jungang Line currently but it is also the symbol of the hope for eventual Korean reunification. DMZ excursion concludes here and the group back to Seoul, takes about 90mins.

Excellent experience, Marisol was a great guide with a lot of wisdom and also made us laugh a lot. They took us to the DMZ and Dora Observatory, where we could see North Korea! I even saw a North Korean citizen and several of his tractors by binoculars!
Very friendly and very informative everything. The tour was a bit fast but Marisol was cute and very good at telling the story and how it was/is all
It wasn’t easy to find a Spanish tour from Spain, but I can say I couldn’t have chosen better. I can’t be happier to have done this tour with Marisol. I loved having the personalized tour with my family. Going with children was fabulous to be able to make the closest visit, asking questions and taking more care of our needs. Marisol is wonderful and a person you can talk to.
The guide, Marisol, is the best. He took us from the hotel to the dmz and explained everything and also gave us recommendations to eat and see.
A very good and enjoyable experience. Marisol has explained everything perfectly and has been watching us, I would repeat again without hesitation
Marisol is a sweetheart. He picked us up at the agreed time and was very pleasant. It is highly recommended to do this tour with them.
We were 2 couples, 4 people, Marisol behaved great with us, came to pick us up at the hotel. He was super friendly, explained everything to us where we went. Super funny and close. If I went back to Korea I would do any tour with this person to have a good visit in Spanish ☺️
Marisol is a very professional guide. It explains in such an interesting and fun way at the same time that it is enjoyed. 100% recommend taking the tour
They helped us plan our personalized trip for my family and it was amazing. Very personalized, professional and loved it! We thank you very much and hope to return to Korea soon. Definitely super recommended, apart everything is the Spanish and assist you before, during and after the trip
