Review for: DMZ Premium Small Group: North Korea Defector Q&A, Suspension Bridge

Had a great time with our guide Joseph! He was very knowledgeable and friendly and I appreciate how the trip was organized logistically... bathroom breaks and such. Joseph also took many photos & shared them with us to supplement our own, which was a nice plus. There was quite a bit of incline to deal with on both the visit to the suspension bridge and the 3rd tunnel, but that was expected... (we had my mother in law in her 80s with us). She was able to do both, but with lots of breaks and going fairly slowly, but ultimately we did make it. If you're reasonably fit it should be strenuous, but no problem. Transportation was very clean and comfortable, and I appreciate the smaller group size as well. While lunch was not included in the price, we did visit a local "cafeteria-style" restaurant where lots of locals ate their lunch. It was very inexpensive, and a quality meal... nothing fancy, but a good opportunity to try "everyday resident food" on our trip to Korea.

****This review is for a different tour since our original tour guide came down with an illness and was unable to give the tour.*** PLK TRAVEL booked us on a different tour - DMZ Tour from Seoul. We had Happy Sam as our tour guide. He was so knowledgeable and helpful. He was also super friendly and very cheerful throughout the whole trip. Wpuld definitely recommend this experience and Happy Sam to anyone that is interested in going to the DMZ.
