    An amazing experience!

    Ajay_K, Apr 2026
    My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed the DMZ tour hosted by Kenny. Very organized from the start and punctual. His tremendously detailed knowledge of the history behind the Korean war and the formation of the demarcation line along with the DMZ and affiliated buildings, was legendary. We were thrilled to understand the historical context of the tour. The tunnel tour was incredible and though exhausting, was once again filled with a deep understanding of the history behind it. If you want to engage in a tour that leaves you feeling enriched through knowledge and satisfied at the end of a hard day, then we would highly recommend Kenny's tours!

    Ticked off the bucket list

    JAMES_R, Feb 2026
    Comprehensive tour with knowledgeable Kenny. Safe driver in comfortable new bus. As older travelers (70s) who had relatives who fought in the Korean War, we fully understood the significance of each site. We managed to keep up with the tour, but not with our much younger traveling companions. We made it all the way in and out of the tunnel. Disappointed in the stupid fibreglass animals at such a poignant location as the Freedom Bridge and the unrelated theme park beside the memorial!! This disrespectful downside is no fault of the tour company though.

    Isaac_H, Dec 2025
    Mama Winnie was a great guide! She taught us lots with interesting stories. The tunnel is not for the faint of heart. It’s longer than it seems and is steep on the way back. You also have to walk hunched over at the bottom for several minutes. It was very cool to see though if you can make it! The shopping stops are short but there are several of them and many of the souvenirs are at multiple stores.

    Dextra_W, Dec 2025
    Grace was amazing as a guide & knew the answers to all of our questions. Learning about the history between the 2 countries was very interesting. The suspension bridge was beautiful but also poignant that many UK soldiers died their defending from North Korea. 100% recommend

    Must-See in Seoul

    Montana_D, Dec 2025
    I booked this trip when I was solo-traveling through Seoul for a couple of days. I was nervous about spending a whole day on a tour of the DMZ without really knowing all that much about it, but it was an experience I won't forget anytime soon. Not only was it endlessly interesting, but the curated stops, observatory area, and museum displays offered all kinds of information about North-South Korean relations and international affairs. Our guide Kenny was such a gem too - he was super knowledgable, funny, and kept things moving along to all our stops. He answered all my questions and even took photos of me since I was visiting solo!
