      Excellent DMZ tour
      Jenny was the best tourguide we could have wished for. Super nice and knowledgeable. Even though JSA is no longer accessible, it’s well worth the visit. We had a wonderful tour!

      The tour was super interesting, exactly as described. The area feels like stepping into a red-light zone where the past and tension are palpable. Moreover, the experience was truly wholesome thanks to Nancy. Her amazing attitude, paired with her charming smile, brought everything full circle.

      Eye opener
      It was an eye opening experience. I've always heard about the separation between the North and South but never realized the depth, the cause, the results. I admire the tenacity of the South Koreans and their love for their country. Moon was excellent. She is very knowledgeable of the situation and the history. I love the story of her grandmother and her uncle. We may never know the ending of her story but I'm happy that her grandmother was able to meet her uncle after 50 years of being separated. This tour is highly recommended despite the foggy weather and the restrictions of using the Observatory. Thank you Moon, proud to be a Moonwalker.

      Great tour, great guide
      Our tour guide Moon was fantastic! She was so bright and personable and has such a powerful personal family connection to the Korean War that made everything much more meaningful. Even though the fog kept us from seeing across the border, it didn't take away from how profound the experience was thanks to everything she shared with us, even passing on personal photos she took in the past to make up for what we couldn't see through the fog. It was such a great experience and if I come back someday on a clearer morning, we really hope we can have her as our guide once again.

      Great tour!
      Moon was a great guide! Very informative. Really enjoyed learning about the DMZ and Korean relations even though we couldn’t see much because of the fog. Safety was an obvious priority on this tour! Hopefully one day guests can go to the Panmunjom again.

      A great day learning history with Crystal
      The tour is great for history buffs wanting to learn more about the Korean War and the divide between North and South. Crystal was a great guide who answered all of our questions and found ways to inject levity where appropriate. Highly recommend!

    This was an unique experience! Our daughter wanted to see snow, so we decided to do this tour and it was perfect! The car that drove us there was very confortable and clean and our guide, Gogo, was very thoughtful. The ice fishing was fun - and we can eat what we fish afterwards (it was delicious!). The festival has other fun activities for kids, like skating and sledging. My daughter loved it - during the day it snowed and she felt like Elsa (Frozen!)! To be honest, my younger daughter did not like it as much as my oldest one - she said it was freezing. Anyway, we loved the experience and we could get warm in the several tents around the ice. Highly recommended!
