Korea DMZ Private Tour with War Memorial Tour as Service

About this activity

  • A visit to the War Memorial is a complimentary part of our service and is only available if we arrive in Seoul before 3:00 PM, due to the museum’s opening hours.

*Our guides are DMZ experts including former military veterans and 2nd generation North Korean.

*This is a private tour so we don't stop by any other pick up locations.

*Important Notice: One-month advance reservation is highly recommended, as booking opens exactly one month prior.

If booking within a month, tickets must be purchased on-site and may require waiting in line. During peak seasons (April and October), tickets may sell out after 8 AM.

Explore the unique dynamics of a divided Korea on this exclusive tour, the only one of its kind in the world. Begin your journey at Imjingak Pyeonghwa Nuri Park, then visit to the 3rd Infiltration Tunnel, constructed by North Korea. From the vantage point of Dora Observatory, gaze into the North Korean city of Gaesung.
