Happy with Paul! - Paul was amazing! We weren't able to do the boattrip because the timeframe moved up earlier. But Paul didn't make us regret this!

PLK is a great DMZ tour provider! - Joey was an engaging friendly knowledgeable tour guide, who was so helpful and answering every question and helping us see exactly what we wanted to see. The activities we did were great, it was so nice to spend time on the river with a cool breeze and a friendly boat driver and the green shores of the Imjin floating by. PLK really makes sure their guests have a fun comfortable time!

Must See - This was my favorite part about our trip to Seoul. Our tour guide, Joey, was very knowledgeable about all of the places we visited as well as the history of Korea. We took our 17 and 11 year olds and they both really enjoyed it as well. A must see in Seoul for sure.

DMZ tour with Jun was 100% worth it! - We went on 11th June for the full day DMZ tour with the boat experience. Our tour guide Jun was amazing, personal, friendly and even funny ☺️ Honestly he was the one that made the experience worth it for me!

Thank you Julie! - Julie is the best DMZ guide! Patient, accommodating and knowledgeable, she takes the time to explain everything in detail and point out everything a tourist might miss. Her recommendations for souvenirs, products and food along the way were spot on. Your trip to SKorea/DMZ won’t be complete without her!

THE BEST HOST - I have been getting Viator to see different places in different countries, every time me and my family travel abroad. So far, the DMZ tour hosted by JUN of PLK Travel and Tours was the best we experienced, compared to other hosts. He can speak English and easy to understand and provides historical information about Korea and the DMZ. We didn't experience any dull moments with him. Very accommodating and helpful to his guests. 10 STARS FOR JUN.

👌 - Great! Very glad I went! Informative and interesting! You see a lot in one day! Everything was smooth but could had more time in the stops, 10 min extra would have been enough:)

Informative adventure - Even with JSA closed it was an excursion that we enjoyed. Tour guide's english was poor, his verbiage rambled on and after a while tuned him out. The boat ride at end was confusing. A 20 minute ride on a boat no where near pictured in ad, no discussion or information.

Company Pushed to Another Tour - Unfortunately, we were pushed to another DMZ tour (which was okay) last minute. Looking at reviews, it seems as though this is a common issues with this tour. It was a real bummer that we were unable to attend this and would be interested in knowing how often this occurs.
