Soul: DMZ s dôchodkovým vojenským dôstojníkom a severokórejským prebehlíkom

Bol to taký úžasný deň, keď sme dnes navštívili demilitarizovanú zónu (DMZ) na hranici so Severnou Kóreou počas poldenného výletu s príjemne chladným počasím, vďaka čomu bola naša prehliadka mimoriadne pohodlná. Náš sprievodca Jason bol neuveriteľne profesionálny a dobre informovaný. Poskytol nám živé a podrobné úvody do dlhej histórie Južnej Kórey, ako aj všeobecné informácie o Južnej Kórei, čo nám pomohlo získať hlbšie pochopenie tohto úžasného miesta. Každá časť prehliadky bola dobre zorganizovaná a užili sme si každú chvíľu prechádzky po nádherných miestach. Ohromujúca scenéria a bohaté kultúrne dedičstvo nás hlboko zaujali. Tento fantastický výlet nám priniesol veľkú radosť a nezabudnuteľné spomienky. Naozaj sme tu strávili fantastický a naplnený poldenný výlet a vrelo odporúčame túto prehliadku každému, kto príde do Južnej Kórey, a rovnako vrelo odporúčame aj Jasona ako sprievodcu. Je taký vzdelaný, priateľský, informatívny, fantastický a veľmi profesionálny. Celá skupina sa vďaka nemu cítila príjemne. Ďakujeme, Jason (Simmo).

Veľa som sa dozvedel o zložitosti konfliktu medzi Severnou a Južnou Kóreou a o histórii, ktorá za ním stojí. Jason bol veľmi dobre informovaný, najmä keďže len nedávno odišiel do dôchodku zo služby v armáde.

Richard was a great tour leader. He explained the history and tension between North Korea and South Korea nicely. He also gave us many interesting facts and did an interesting quiz at the end of the trip. I got a choco pie for answering the question correctly, yeay! Thank you so much, Richard. I had so much fun and I appreciate your effort 😊🙏🏼

Captain Eddie was a really great tour guide. Even funny too ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ The visit to the 3rd tunnel was our first stop. worth visiting but you need strong legs - especially if you are tall. there are lots of low ceiling areas. The observatory was great, to see across the boarder and getting all the knowledge Eddie has about the DMZ as he was stationed there once. Lastly we heard a Noth Korean that escape tell her not so nice story. Help you understand the situation a little more. Even the little local simple Korea buffet restaurant we went for quick late lunch was good 🤗 If you have strong legs then I recommend this tour. We visited the DMZ on a very warm day so the cool air on the bus was a lifesaver too.

had an absolutely amazing DMZ tour and I can’t recommend it enough, especially with our guide Eddie. He’s an ex-military officer and extremely knowledgeable in Korean history, and from the start he encouraged us to ask questions and made the entire experience engaging and interactive. The drive was filled with context and stories that set the stage, and once we arrived, seeing North Korea from above , the fake village, the flags, and the stark contrast across the border — was surreal. Walking down into the infiltration tunnel all the way to the end was intense and unforgettable, and Eddie made sure we understood its historical importance. At every stop, he didn’t just give facts but added insight and answered everyone’s questions with patience and detail, even going out of his way to help us whenever we needed. Eddie’s professionalism, knowledge, and genuine care for the group turned this into one of the best tours I’ve ever taken, and I would highly recommend booking with him!

Incredible experience visiting the DMZ with such a knowledgeable team! So moved by the history and truly grateful for a thoughtful, well-paced, and informative tour. We just hoped that the war between the two Koreas end already. We also want to commend our guide, Eddie. He waited for us althouhgh we are so late due to our first time in Korea.

I was looking at making a trip to the DMZ as a highlight of my travels through South Korea. But given that this is one of the most popular activities amongst tourists, I researched a bit to find out which of these would be the best tour to take. And without a doubt the tour led by ex Korean military officers was the best choice. Why? Because you hear a side of the story that others don't have access to or the experience of. Our tour guide, Capt. Eddie, was a fascinating host, running the trip with military precision yet keeping it light, fun, engaging and informative. It was lovely to hear stories from his service time and get his perspectives of how the situation has been over the years. Definitely the best of all the DMZ tours to book. Thank you Eddie!

Úžasne som si užil objavovanie DMZ a MDL! Prehliadka prekonala všetky moje očakávania. Veľká vďaka patrí pánovi SJ za to, že bol taký fantastický sprievodca; jeho vedomosti a energia urobili výlet skutočne nezabudnuteľným. Užili sme si každú minútu!

My tour guide Eddie made me a day. I had amazing day with him!!👌 DMZ View hunt tour Led by a retired military officer from PLK Travel is the best tour ever without any doubts. It was a really HIGH quality tour with the real professional, the retired military officer Eddie.👍👍👍 During the whole tour, he explained everything so detail about my questions and shared his own stories about his military era and many other historical stories. I learned a lot about South Korea and North Korea history and political things. It was so interesting since he shared his own opinions. Overall it was really well made historical adventure tour. I highly recommend this tour who are interested in Korea's history and the one and only experience in Korea. Thank you soooo much for Eddie and PLK Travel they are awesome team!!!

The history of conflict tells you a lot about character. That's what this tournament is all about. Walking through the third tunnel makes you realise the enormity of what the nation went through. Being an Indian i realise what is to have your nation break into two. That's the story of DMZ. Don't miss it. Our host Eddie, a retired Captain and stationed at DMZ are one point in time, is not only informative but provides a rare insight into the very core of the conflict. His sessions are interactive and his stories are heart warming. The tour was what it was because of Eddies
