Excursão de Meio Dia ao Parque Ecológico da Paz Aegibong Starbucks de Gimpo

Judy gave us the best history, trivia and information! Exactly the things I needed to hear, adding more value and appreciation with what I thought was just a sight-seeing tour. She deserves a raise. One of the best and informed tour-guides I experienced so far. She's so dedicated 💜

We had an amazing DMZ Tour along the North Korea border! 🇰🇷 Our tour guide, Alice, was incredibly knowledgeable, engaging, and attentive throughout the entire trip. She explained the history clearly and made the experience both educational and fun. We felt safe and well-taken care of every step of the way. Highly recommended for anyone visiting Korea, and ask for Alice (VIP Tour)as your guide! 🌟

We were picked up at Myeongdong Station at 9 AM by a very nice car, and the ride was very comfortable and pleasant. Our guide, HANA, provided explanations in English. It would be quite difficult if you don't understand English. There were many large tour buses at the DMZ, but Starbucks wasn't very crowded, so we were able to relax and have some tea. We only stayed there for about an hour, so it would have been better if the stay had been a bit longer. Also, there were more Instagrammable photo spots than I expected, from the parking lot to Starbucks. We arrived at our drop-off point on the way back around 1:56 PM. Since it's a place you can't go to individually, I highly recommend joining a tour.

Our guide, Claire, was the highlight of the experience. Friendly, knowledgeable, and passionate, she made everyone feel welcome and comfortable. She answered all our questions and shared stories that brought the place to life. It honestly felt more like traveling with a friend than being part of a tour group. The experience was a 10/10!

Judy is a wonderful tour guide, full of joy and good stories. She was very attentive and more than willing to be a photographer at all the spots we wanted to capture our memories at. This is a wonderful tour to experience a peaceful time learning about the DMZ. You can also grab a snack/drink at the Starbucks.

Yuna was amazing and so nice! Very simple trip and easy to follow. Loved drinking a frappe and looking into North Korea. The exhibition hall had nice souvenirs. No Visa so bring cash. You can go at your own pace and look at what you want. Yuna answered all questions and was so helpful.

Alice is our tour guide and she speaks very well. She also shared the history of Korea before heading to the observatory to help us understand the journey the Koreans went through.

Max was a great guide and have us an insightful history as well, during the 1.5 hr ride to the observatory. Helped make the trip more enjoyable. And of course having a cup of Starbucks coffee while gazing across into NK was surreal. Glad my kiddo recommended this DMZ tour.

It was a short but relaxing and enjoyable trip with Ivy, our tour guide. She was very gracious and made it really memorable. It was wonderful to walk along a pathway crossing a suspension bridge and leading a view point overlooking North Korea.

The main purpose of this trip was to visit the Starbucks closest to North Korea. We were very lucky to have a clear, sunny day! Our tour guide, Owen, was excellent. He chatted with us and explained the history of the two Koreas throughout the journey, patiently answering all our questions. His personal story of his family being separated and then reunited sounded truly like a movie plot – incredibly interesting! Guide Owen helped us find a North Korean school through binoculars, as well as North Koreans herding sheep and even riding bicycles, LOL. Starbucks didn't seem to have any special DMZ-only mugs; I'm not sure if they don't make them or if they were sold out. However, they did have a Gyeonggi (Gyeonggi Province) city mug with a small DMZ section on it, so I bought that one as a souvenir. It was a very pleasant half-day tour, definitely worth spending a morning on!
