Over the Moon with Moon! - I don’t usually like doing tours. They can feel robotic and very impersonable. But I am so glad I did this one! The trip to DMZ was amazing in every way! Moon was absolutely incredible. I so appreciated her focus on humanity and sharing her personal story with us. It allowed me to really connect with the history and the places we visited on an emotional level. She happily answered any questions our group had. She was engaging, personable, and professional. Truly the best experience!

Team Nancy - This tour has a lot more insight into the history of Korea then I expected. Very very much worth going. Nancy was a terrific guide who took pictures of everyone and helped with anything and everything you could possibly need. When I come back to Korea I will do this tour again. Be sure to wear good shoes.

DMZ Tour booked last minute! - Easy to book tour that we decided to go on very last minute at past 10pm the night before. Great communication after receiving the email confirmation nearly immediately even though it was late. 3 convenient pick up options given for the next morning. Emily our tour guide was excellent and friendly! Learnt a lot from her about the history and places we visited! Great experience overall and would highly recommend!

Great experience - Chinese language guides are great, not only are enthusiastic to explain the origin of DMZ, provide some special services, such as asking about Korean history issues, or want to buy postcards, etc., like a friend to help you solve problems, have a special kindness in foreign countries!
