Spend a day in no man's land on this tour to the Korean Demilitarized Zone (DMZ).

DMZ Korea Tour

We will pick you up from your chosen meeting point in Seoul at the specified time and head north to the Korean Demilitarized Zone (DMZ), a 124-mile long (200 km) and 2.5-mile (4 km) wide buffer zone separating North and South Korea.

Upon arrival, we will walk along Freedom Road beside the Imjin River to Imjingak Park, viewing artillery from the Korean War. We will continue to the Unification Bridge, a symbol of unity, and a DMZ exhibition room featuring military conflict documents and artifacts.

Next, we will enter the infiltration tunnel below the border. Afterward, we will visit the Dora Observatory for telescope views of the North Korean town of Kijongdong. This town is known as "Peace Village" by North Koreans and "Propaganda Village" by others.

Finally, we will return to Seoul, concluding this 7 to 8.5-hour trip.

It spans 220 meters (721 feet) and is 1.5 meters (5 feet) wide. It withstands winds of up to 30 meters per second and earthquakes of up to 7 magnitudes.
