Customer Reviews
I had an amazing experience on the DMZ tour, thanks to Jooee. She was knowledgeable, engaging, and made the history easy to understand and really impactful. Everything was well organized, and the day felt seamless and meaningful.
Joo-ee was a lovely guide. She had prepared a lot of historical information, she steered our group to the more meaningful and enjoyable stops and steered us away from less enjoyable aspects of the tour (like soybean chocolate?!). Joo-ee was also helpful to individuals in our group who needed recommendations for Seoul sights and restaurants. Highly recommend a tour with Joo-ee!
LOVE
Jooee was AMAZING! Not only was she incredibly kind, professional and knowledgeable she was also such a happy, warm soul. What a blessing to have her as a tour guide!
Great
Jooee was very efficient and did a great job explaining the history of North and South Korea. I appreciated that we started our tour early so we could be one of the first groups thru. She tried to keep us ahead of the crowds and back to Seoul before rush hour traffic. Thank you for a great experience.
I took the full day DMZ tour with my girlfriend and her 5-year-old daughter and we had a great time. Jun was an excellent guide - very friendly, knowledgeable, safe driver, and well-organized. He picked us up exactly when he said he would and kept everything moving smoothly. The group had about a dozen people, and although in my opinion some were quite rude to Jun, he kept a good attitude and interacted positively with them. There is a bit of physical exertion involved if you choose (like going into the infiltration tunnel or to the suspension bridge), but it was optional and the 5 year old did well. I highly recommend this experience if you want to get a glimpse of North Korea from across the border and learn more about the history of the war.

The tour was excellent and the guide is very well versed in Korean history. She has a great sense of humor and kept the tour enjoyable the entire time. I highly recommend if you plan to visit the DMZ.

Vincent (Yong Hur) was our guide for our visit to the DMZ on our first day in Korea. Vincent is a very knowledgeable and informed guide. You can tell is very passionate about his job and especially about his knowledge about the history of the DMZ. He is also very knowledgeable about other topics we had questions about. On Our drive back from the swinging bridge to our hotel we inquired on different restaurants and shopping places. Vincent suggested many Restaurants and their specialities to us. He also suggested shopping areas and stores all Near our hotel including the night street food vendors and all kinds of stores, That evening he texted me the restaurants and street vendors locations that were all in walking distance by our hotel. That’s an awesome and unexpected thing to do and in my opinion something a guide doesn’t do after his job has been completed. He took that extra mile beyond what was required. Mahalo Vincent a job well done and going beyond what was expected of you! Melvina Nakao And Becky Kam-Lacascio
Jun was a great guide, getting to us and from the DMZ and providing interesting insights along the way. Thanks!
