Review for: DMZ only Join-In Tour (10:00 Departure) + NK Defector Meet up

Eugeen/Hanki Lee was phenomenal!!! I was tired because I just arrived in Korea earlier this morning and then joined the tour after 2 hours lol I had no sleep but Eugeen’s energy was amazing!! I was awake the whole time because he’s really entertaining and knowledgeable. You have a really great tour guide. Please take care of him. He is genuine, he is a real person who is passionate not just about his job but also about your whole country. I love Eugeen!! Will definitely recommend this tour to my friends. I hope they get Eugeen as their tour guide too!!!

Lily from Seoul City Tours was absolutely amazing. She had so much energy, made the tour super fun and her knowledge on the DMZ was amazing. The tour was perfect we covered so much, I especially enjoyed the defector talk and the observatory. the caves were tough but manageable and such a surreal experience too. seeing Lily’s smiling face at the end made it worth it. I highly recommend this tour and if you are lucky enough to have Lily as your guide you will have the best time!

Awesome experience. Beyond the busy Myeongdong and Lotte shopping district, this is an educational tour not to be missed if you are in Seoul. AJ from Seoul City Tour gave lengthy and clear explanations of each stop. With a pinch of humour in between. Thoroughly enjoyed it. Did the tour with the meet up with NK defector. Inspiring story.

The tour was very informative and our tour guide Lily gave great insights ahead of each stop to make the most of our visit. The use of the bus screen was great as Lily projected photos and videos that provided good background information about the war, families reunited in the 80s, and remaining issues for the Korean society. Our tour guide brought great energy and was kind, punctual and very helpful - thank you!

We had an amazing experience on the DMZ tour with Erica as our guide. She was friendly, knowledgeable, and explained the history. The tour was well organised, the transfer was smooth and gave us a really meaningful insight into Korea’s history and the DMZ. Meeting the North Korean defector was also very powerful and something we won’t forget. Erica made the whole day enjoyable and easy to follow. Highly recommend this tour!
