Seoul DMZ & Gamaksan Mountain Small Group Tour

Richard was our excellent guide today, very informative not just about our itinerary but he also mentioned other attractions in Seoul. I find the day was well-organised and we were recommended a nice place to have our lunch which I absolutely enjoyed, and he also took photos for us where allowed like by the waterfall and suspension bridge. Most importantly though is what I learned about DMZ and the friction between North and South Korea. It has made me more aware and hope and pray that they can be united again with good leader and government so civilians will stop being victims.

There were 7 of us in the tour so it was somewhat a semi-private tour and our vehicle was a van instead of a bus, with our tour guide, Mike, driving us. The night before, the Dora Observatory was closed so we couldn't go there. Instead, Mike offered to bring us to a different observatory, which was also nice. The gondola ride over the Imjin river, it was foggy in the morning but cleared up in an hour. The soy lattes they sold in the Forbidden Place were very good! The train tracks in the tunnel were also closed so we had a hike down and up the slope into the 3rd Tunnel, a good and tiring exercise! I hope the relations between Koreas get better soon so they open up the JSA again, would love to go again! We also visited the winery and tasted the wine and juice they made. They also sell jellies and jams, which Mike was so nice to give as souvenirs. 💯

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Outstanding Tour with Genie! We had an incredible DMZ and Gamaksan Valley tour with Genie—there were only four of us, so it felt personal and special. Genie was warm, friendly, and so knowledgeable, sharing fascinating history and answering every question with patience. He took us to all the best photo spots and even recommended a fantastic local Korean restaurant for lunch, which was delicious. His driving was smooth, safe, and comfortable all day. Genie went above and beyond to make sure we had the best experience possible. If we could redo this tour, we’d request him again in a heartbeat. Highly recommend Genie to anyone visiting—he truly made our day unforgettable!
