A must if you are in Seoul

Excellent day trip to the DMZ, early start paid off as we were the first bus in, thanks to our enthusiastic and diligent tour guide Joo-ee We left Seoul at 6:20 am and we returned around 3 pm a long day but packed with content, the tunnel for us was quite difficult as you need to bend down a lot of the way but ultimately satisfied that we completed it. Observatory was excellent, Joo-ee gave us great insight and provided excellent information. The suspension bridge was also great fun but it’s a full day and a lot of walking but well worth the effort

Packed day without the stress

Our guide Jung was lovely and very knowledgeable on our tour of the DMZ and suspension bridge. I loved that she had everything so well planned and we got so much packed into the day without feeling rushed! We were the first group in most of the sites and did not have to line up at all. Jung made everyone feel comfortable around some obviously heavy topics and brought good vibes to the whole group. Would recommend!

Our tour guide SONG, was amazing. She coordinated with us the day before the trip made sure we had the information for pickup. She met us on time for the tour, her driving was safe. Her explanation and explanation of events were factual and useful. She had empathy was every individual on the tour and we felt very relaxed and happy. She had a beautiful calming effect on us. Thanks SONG.
