#TeamKenny DMZ Tour was EPIC!

Our DMZ tour with Kenny was AMAZING. The experience was nothing short of excellent; the entire ride, Kenny kept us clearly informed as to what we would be doing, what timelines would look like, and what to do and not to do from a etiquette perspective. What was particularly notable was Kenny’s genuine positivity, knowledge, and overall passion for South Korea and the history of the nation. I can’t think of a more enjoyable way for the day to have turned out! I would absolutely take this tour again just to spend a day around this positivity!
