Traveler reviews
Gogo is awesome
Gogo was really nice, great huide, wonderful explanation and patience.
North Korean Defector Q&A
Well organized tour. Easy to find meeting spot in front of Myeongdong Subway. Our guide Diane C was knowledgable, fun and so energetic! The tour that I signed up for was “Suspension Bridge and JSA Museum” but we went to a North Korea defector Q&A instead of the bridge. That Q&A was one of the highlight of the tour so my recommendation is to signup for a tour that includes a defector Q&A, Dora Observatory and 3rd infiltration tunnel. The JSA museum is not close to the actual JSA but it does have replicas of the famous UN blue buildings to take photos next to.
The program was extensive...
The program was extensive and despite rainy weather we covered all of the planned attractions. The guide Ray was amazing- talkative, witty and well informed. Totally recommend this trip
Very interesting
The tour guide (Ray) was amazing, knew a lot of history and made the tour very enjoyable with a great balance of hard historical facts, cultural feeling and personal experience.
