Very meaningful tour even to Korean - It was so meaningful i could take this tour and got to know more detailed history about my own country. English-speaking guide always be with you and she well know about history and current situation between South and North Korea, so whenever you have any questions then you can ask her! The most impressive moment of the tour was the time i met defector and have a Q&A time. Very thanks.

DMZ - Nice and informative tour. Specially Q&A with a defector was very intriguing. Although the restriction is too much, but still good to visit.

The Perfect DMZ Tour! 😊 - Grace, our tour guide is very accommodating, very good in speaking in English and also very knowledgeable with the Korean History that allowed us to learn very much while in the trip. The tour was perfect since we were able to visit DMZ and Northern Limit Line where we saw through binoculars the Korean life.

This tour is a scam, no defector meeting, no time to appreciate anything enough, unorganized guide with poor English - Don’t believe the positive comments because Grace Kim basically forces you to write a positive review after not keeping her promises. First of all, the guide is very unorganized and her English is quite poor (I had to use Translate app at some point), rushing everyone everywhere all the time and not leaving enough time to appreciate anything, not even giving us the free time at the end that she promised. Instead of meeting the North Korean defector, she just told me some obvious lies like she had a headache whatever, and just gave me 10k won and that’s it, while the only reason I signed up for this overpriced tour was meeting the defector. I asked to at least replace it with the Suspension Bridge, then she told another obvious lie about the weather (the weather was beautiful). And at the end, since she didn’t offer any of those, I wanted to be left at the civilian area to do those things myself, she told me another lie about no public transportation etc (I even showed her the bus on the navigation app) and took us to an amethyst shop in Seoul, which explains why I was basically kept hostage in the car against my will to leave the car, and while in the car, she insisted everyone to leave good comments for herself (Grace Kim), so don’t believe the good comments. Just go to Imjingak and sign up for a tour there and experience the area with your own pace, this tour doesn’t give you anything they promise and just force you to have less time there.
