Itinerary

Enjoy this highly popular tour of the Korean Demilitarized Zone, located just a few miles away from the North Korean Territory! Get to know your friendly guide en route your first destination of the day – Imjingak Park, also known as the Nuri Peace Park, which was built in 1972 after the joint South-North armistice. Witness intriguing exhibits associated with the Korean War and South-North conflicts. With several sculpted artworks, notice the symbols of the Korean War tragedy in almost every corner of this place.

Check out the Freedom Bridge that was once crossed over by South Koreans when they came back home from North Korea. Next, pass by the Unification Village and check out the DMZ Theater and Exhibition Hall. As you travel through the DMZ area, listen to your guide’s commentary on Korea’s turbulent past. Also, learn how the Korean Armistice Agreements led to the creation of a 155-mile long military demarcation line (MLD) with this 2-km wide demilitarized zone on each side of it.

Go further to visit the 3rd Infiltration Tunnel that was secretly dug by the Northern army to spy on the Republic of Korea. Your next stop is the Dorasan Observatory, located on the top of Mt. Dora. This is followed by a visit to Dorastan Station, one of the northernmost railway stations on the Gyeongui Line, connecting Seoul to Sinuiju. Situated in the zone that strictly restricts general civilian access, visitors can view Dorasan Mountain and the barbed wire fences of the Southern Limit Line.

This tour ends with drop off in Seoul at either City Hall Subway Station or Myeongdong.
