By far this is the best tour of my life. If you are comming to South Korea we MUST go to DMZ tour. And above all of that, kindly request for the guide named Tiger. He is amazing person and a great history teller. He is a former military and that gives so much richness into the experience. Words cannot describe how grateful we are to have this tour and have known Tiger. It is a “in person”, live history with an amazing human being that transmits knowledge better than any professor I’ve ever had.

We had an outstanding day at the DMZ. Marie, from PLK Travel, did an excellent job providing history and context, answering our questions, and ensuring we were well taken care of. The ticketing process for the tour is inefficient (they should automate it), but Marie handled the process for us.

Private tour with Tiger was amazing. His knowledge, background, and attention to detail were second to none. He explained the history in an easy to understand way, and even brought along maps to visually see his descriptions of the war. He answered all of our questions and knew exactly where to go at each stop. We got to experience all of the DMZ, and learned more then we ever thought possible. It was a once in a lifetime experience.

We went on the private DMZ tour with our guide Won. He was excellent from the start, communicating with us before the tour to arrange an early pick up and make sure we were the first to get inside the tunnels and have first dibs at tickets. He was incredibly knowledgeable and provided amazing teaching on the history of Korea and the sites we visited. It was nice to have the private guide as we were able to ask all of our questions and learn more than if we were in a larger group. I highly recommend him and his company and would definitely use them again.
