Seoul: DMZ Tour with 2nd Tunnel, Hantangang & Scenic Wonders

The adventure begins at Goseokjeong National Tourist Area, a scenic retreat known for its striking rock formations along the Hantan River. Visitors can explore by boat or walk on the frozen river on winter. Next, step onto the Hantangang Milky Way Bridge, a stunning glass bridge suspended over the Hantangang River. The highlight of the tour is the DMZ Durumi Peace Town. Wear a helmet and visit the 2nd Tunnel, an infiltration tunnel secretly built by North Korea and discovered in 1975. At the Peace Observatory, peer across the border into North Korea. The visit continues at Woljeong-ri Station, the symbolic 'last station before the North' where a bullet-riddled train stands as a stark reminder of the war. The journey concludes at the Labor Party Building & Cheorwon History and Culture Park. This three-story building was constructed in 1946 when the area was part of North Korea, still bears scars from shelling and ghunfire after the Korean War. Nearby, Cheorwon History and Culture Park, a recreated street of 1930s Cheorwon downtown.

Honestly, it was one of the best experiences I've had in a long time. The two people who accompanied us were fantastic. They really knew what to do and when to do it to save us time, get us the best seats, etc. When I return to South Korea with my family, I want to have the same experience with the same people. They are fantastic and make you feel valued with their professionalism. Thanks again to them.

Very nice tour. The day was packed with places visited, there were no “now you have an hour to do whatever you want” breaks, so the tour went at an adequate pace and we managed to visit 6 different places despite the 2hrs drive from Seoul. The drive was smooth and quiet so we could use the time to relax. Thumbs up to John, our guide!

Very friendly guide (Chuck)! We was explaining a lot about all the sides. We visited many places and the highlights were definitely the tunnel, but also the observatory. It was absolutely recommended, if you have a day you can spent.
