Best DMZ Tour Ever – Lucy Made It Incredible - ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ (5/5) – Absolutely Amazing DMZ Tour with Lucy (Pina)! Today’s DMZ tour with Lucy (her real name is Pina) was absolutely incredible! From start to finish, she made the entire experience unforgettable. We visited the 2nd Infiltration Tunnel, the famous Milky Way Bridge, and even saw the North Korean building within South Korea – something I never expected to witness up close! Lucy didn’t just guide us; she educated us. She shared so much history and fascinating facts about the DMZ and the Korean conflict in a way that was engaging and easy to understand. You can tell how passionate and knowledgeable she is about the subject. After the tour, she took us to a traditional Korean-style restaurant that was both delicious and very affordable – a perfect ending to the day! On top of being an amazing guide, Lucy is one of the sweetest, most approachable, and genuinely bubbly people you could ever meet. She’s funny, full of energy, and made everyone feel comfortable and welcome throughout the tour. I can’t recommend this tour enough. If you’re planning to visit the DMZ, ask for Lucy (Pina) – she will make your experience truly unforgettable!

one of a kind experience - absurd experience, I did not know that you can so easily get so close to North Korea and get into one of the NK infiltration tunnels. that it is such kind of touristy tour in contrast to the seriousness of the situation just adds to the experience. i definitely can recommend the PLK tour with Lucy

DMZ Tour PLK Travel - I did the DMZ tour with Julie from PLK travel. It was awesome! We visited the suspension bridge, the third invasion tunnel, the observatory and the unification village. Julie told us fascinating stories and facts about the history and meaning of these locations, which made the trip and the bus ride from Seoul very entertaining! This tour is very good, I can wholeheartedly recommend it!

Literally no cons - This was the best tour ever. Our tour guide Julie was amazing, everything you want in a tour guide and even in a person. The way she explained everything and interacted with the group was straight up from the book, making it both super fun and educational. I went with PLK doing the DMZ tour, having seen a lot of sights, including Gamaksan suspension bridge, Imingak peace park, and of course inside the DMZ itself. Julie is knowledgeable about everything, teaching us in a passionate way, staying excited even through the hot weather. Bus ride was comfortable, even having wifi on board. Genuinely can’t recommend Julie specifically enough for this tour.

Julie rocks!! DMZ Tour with PLK Travel. - Had a great day out at the DMZ with Julie our tour guide. Great knowledge, superb English, amazing sense of humour and full of energy, all wrapped up within a beautiful woman, can highly recommend. The initial booking for the river cruise was cancelled (due to mechanical issues) and subsequently substituted for one of the suspension bridges which was disappointing but the rest of the tour as advertised. Pick up was seamless and efficient and left on time. Bus was well driven with adequate AC, with Julie filling every transit between locations with a mix of interesting and engaging facts about the Korean War, The DMZ, North Korea and Korean life in general. (There is an element of soft selling involved across the day which tbf is the norm with most tours these days). 2nd stop was the freedom bridge, steam locomotive and Mangbaedan Alter which Julie explained well in an engaging and facts filled manner that tied in well with the parks exhibits and various sign boards. 3rd stop was the highlight of the day the DMZ observatory. Again Julie delivered an engaging and energetic explanation of the North Korean vista visible from the panoramic viewing area alongside many interesting facts related the North Korea and the complicated relationship between the North and South. 4th Stop was the 3rd Invasion Tunnel which was a fascinating experience but not for those afraid of physical effort as its quite a hike on the way out and pretty confined in places. Here Julie ensured all went smoothly regarding tickets and entry and provided a detailed explanation of the tunnels life before we made our descent into the tunnel itself. Last stop was the unification village which was essentially a pit stop for a meal, refreshments and restroom before our return journey to Seoul. Throughout the day Julie represented PLK Travel extremely well ensuring everything went smoothly and without complications whilst delivering the DMZ Tour with energy and enthusiasm. Julie's knowledge on all things DMZ was always delivered at a good pace and in an engaging and professional manner whilst injecting her own bubbly, friendly and engaging manner into all aspects of the experience. For the cost of the excursion i can highly recommend the DMZ Tour via PLK Travel with Julie as your guide. We love you Julie, thank you for a great day 👍
