Seoul: DMZ kasama ang Retired Military Officer at North Korean Defector

Napakagandang araw ng pagbisita sa North Korean border DMZ half day tour ngayon na may kaaya-ayang malamig na panahon, na nagpaginhawa sa aming paglilibot. Ang aming gabay na si Jason ay napakapropesyonal at may malawak na kaalaman. Nagbigay siya sa amin ng malinaw at detalyadong pagpapakilala sa mahabang kasaysayan ng South Korea pati na rin ang pangkalahatang impormasyon tungkol sa South Korea, na tumulong sa amin na magkaroon ng mas malalim na pag-unawa sa kamangha-manghang lugar na ito. Bawat bahagi ng pamamasyal ay maayos na inayos, at nasiyahan kami sa bawat sandali ng paglalakad sa mga kahanga-hangang lugar. Ang nakamamanghang tanawin at mayamang pamana ng kultura ay nag-iwan sa amin ng malalim na impresyon. Ang kamangha-manghang biyaheng ito ay nagdulot sa amin ng malaking kagalakan at di malilimutang alaala. Talagang nagkaroon kami ng kamangha-mangha at kasiya-siyang kalahating araw dito, at lubos naming inirerekomenda ang tour na ito sa lahat ng pupunta sa South Korea at lubos ding inirerekomenda si Jason bilang tour guide. Siya ay napakatalino, palakaibigan, nagbibigay-impormasyon, kamangha-mangha at napakapropesyonal. Ginawa niyang komportable ang buong grupo. Maraming salamat Jason (Simmo).

Marami akong natutunan tungkol sa mga kumplikadong salungatan sa pagitan ng Hilaga at Timog Korea at ang kasaysayan sa likod nito. Napakatalino ni Jason lalo na't kakaretiro lang niya mula sa kanyang serbisyo sa militar.

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!

Napakasaya ng aking paggalugad sa DMZ at MDL! Ang tour ay higit pa sa aking inaasahan. Malaking pasasalamat kay Mr. SJ sa pagiging isang napakagaling na gabay; ang kanyang kaalaman at sigla ang nagpaganda at nagpa-hindi malilimutan sa biyahe. Nagustuhan ko ang bawat minuto nito!

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

Had an amazing time on the DMZ tour! It was such an eye-opening experience to learn about the history between North and South Korea and actually see the border area up close. Our guide Eddie was fantastic, super knowledgeable, funny, and really made the stories come alive. He made sure everyone felt safe and comfortable throughout the trip. Definitely recommend this tour and if you get Eddie, you’re in good hands!

We had an amazing and informative experience. Eddie, as our tour guide, was top knotch. He relayed personal, relevant military experiences and was open to answering all questions. We learned so much. The experience was enlightening and impactful. I’d recommend taking the tour with Eddie who is 10/10 superb.
