Sadie was a great guide for our DMZ tour. She was informative - but not overwhelming - and she had just the right kind of humor to keep things interesting. And she ran a good schedule keeping our group on track at all the stops.

Jun was so excellent. The DMZ can be a touchy subject for some but he handled the entire tour with care, lots of information, and a bit of humor. If there were 10 stars I’d give 10/10. It’s a once in a lifetime experience to see, feel, and learn. Plenty of time at each stop and there is a LOT to see and do on the tour. Just enough time to make it back for a late lunch of some spicy ramyeon

Great day of sightseeing, history lessons, and emotional connection to Korean history. Pickup and drop off also very easy. Our tour guide Jun was amazing; very punctual, efficient, hard working, kind and welcoming. He contacted me through WhatsApp before the tour which was very helpful. His best quality is his sarcasm, jokes, fun facts and deep knowledge not only of Korea but of the world. Many thanks to him for making this tour just that much more special.

I booked super last second and I’m sooo glad that I did! I had no idea what to expect but was very impressed with how much I learned and saw knowing nothing about Korea. My tour guide, Felicity, did an amazing job and taught me so much!!! If you are able to choose a tour guide, choose her! She is the GOAT!

It would be our pleasure to welcome you back on your next visit to Korea.
Our guide KATIE was absolutely amazing for the DMZ tour which we took today on the 19 Th June 2026. I have never seen anyone with so much enthusiasm and patience. I found her taking care of each and every guest with the same zest. Next time I am in Korea I would love to join more tours with her and also advise my friends to do the tours with her specifically.
Thanks
