Communication and information were perfect. Reminders right up to the hour were helpful. Great day trip, everything worked out perfectly. SKL coach company and especially their guide, Charles , we're magnificent.

Itinerary

Make your own way to one of the three designated meeting points in Seoul to meet your guide for your full-day DMZ tour.

Begin your journey with insightful visits to the Bridge of Freedom and Mangbaedan Altar, setting the stage for the Korean War's narrative. Venture into the Third Tunnel, an imposing invasion tool, before continuing to Dora Observatory, which offers a panoramic view of North Korea.

Then, choose to visit one of two bridges: take a short hike to the Gamaksan Chulleong Suspension Bridge, a 500-foot (150-meter)-long structure with historical significance, or the Lake Majang Bridge, where allied forces fought battles during the Korean War. Your tour ends with a return to Seoul.

Jenny_D, Nov 2025
This is one of the coolest tours I’ve ever done! It is a must do when in Korea and our tour guide Julie is so good and very knowledgeable. We got to see some of the major attractions in the DMZ, including the Dora Observatory, where we were able to see into North Korea. Highly recommend!

PLK / DMZ-Tour/ Moon Young <3
Patrick_F, Nov 2025
Moon Young from PLK was so great. Lot of Informations and very kind. The DMZ-Tour is very interesting.
Fantastic tour
Alberto_A, Nov 2025
Great tour, and one of the reasons was the tour guide, Julie, she was great. I learned a lot and I also had a lot of fun. It was very well organized
Flexible and informative
Jarom_H, Nov 2025
I went on the DMZ tour with my two daughters. Unfortunately, the JSA was closed when we were in Korea, but we were able to go into the DMZ to the observation tower and tunnel 3. Our guide, Julie, was great! She made sure the tour was super interactive and informative. She was also flexible with the individual stops. She let my daughters stay on the bus for portions that were going to be too strenuous for them.
Great experience at DMZ Tour by PLK Travel!
Argelyn_D, Nov 2025
We booked this tour on a Tuesday and you have to be at the meeting spot at least 10-15mins early to locate your tour guide as there are other tour companies waiting at the same meet up point. Your tour guide’s name will be included in the last message they sent you the day before. Don’t forget to bring your passport or else you won’t be allowed at the DMZ. We departed at 7am on the dot and we had the lovely, bubbly Chloe (from PLK travel DMZ tour) as our tour guide. She was very knowledgeable and kept everyone engaged. She answered everyone’s questions and up for a chat. Granted you’ll want to take a nap during the bus ride but Chloe wouldn’t let you miss all the historical facts of each location. The tour itself was great, the places we went to were interesting and had adequate time to explore after Chloe showed us around. Some activities required a lot of physical exertion so bring your hiking/walking shoes and be up for the challenge! Overall, it’s a tour I’d recommend to family and friends. Thanks again for a great experience, Chloe!
Great trip, and an excellent guide
Alex_S, Nov 2025
We traveled with Simba from PLK travel, she was a great guide, and was able to accommodate us when there was a mixup with our previous booking. Very much appreciated, and super interesting stuff.

Moon young was exceptionally informative and gave a us exactly what i was expecting. Had an opportunity to learn and understand the North and South Korean conflict after this tours. Also I really recommend the shorter tour that ends around 2 pm.
