Unforgettable DMZ: No Shopping, Raw Border History Tour

Lizzy was a great tour guide who was very passionate and knowledgeable ! The tour had a lot of variety and was quite fun, especially the 3rd tunnel.

I am really enjoy the trip with Grace. She’s a great guider. I have a good time. It’s very interesting more than I thought before.

Loved having Felicity as our guide, knowledgable and fun! Went with friends on the DMZ tour with NK defector, recommend it.

Katie has such a great positive energy which made the tour even more fun. Always helping people take photos and giving great tips on what to do and what to get for souvenirs.

I cannot say enough good things about our DMZ tour with Lizzy. From the moment she greeted us early in the morning, it was clear we were in for something special. She was warm, incredibly organized, and set the tone for what turned out to be one of the most meaningful experiences we have had in Korea. Lizzy has this rare gift of combining humor, historical knowledge, and genuine empathy in the way she explains everything. She gave us a deep understanding of not only the political side of the DMZ but also the personal human stories behind it. She shared accounts of families separated for decades, soldiers who served in the region, and how local communities have learned to live their lives near one of the most heavily guarded borders in the world. What impressed me most was how effortless the entire day felt. Every checkpoint, every bus transfer, every security procedure was handled with such precision that we barely noticed any waiting time. Lizzy managed to keep us engaged even during the quiet stretches of the drive by sharing stories, historical context, and photos she had personally collected over the years. At each stop, including Dora Observatory, the Third Infiltration Tunnel, and Dorasan Station, Lizzy went above and beyond. She never rushed us and gave everyone enough time to take in each location. She pointed out the best vantage points for photos, explained small details most guides would overlook, and even helped translate for travelers who did not speak English fluently. Her enthusiasm was contagious. You could tell she genuinely loves what she does. I have been on many guided tours in different countries, but this one stood out because of how authentic and personal it felt. Lizzy made what could have been a purely historical or heavy topic feel both emotional and hopeful. By the end of the tour, we were not just tourists checking a major site off a list. We left with a much deeper appreciation for Korea’s resilience, a better understanding of the North and South divide, and a lasting respect for Lizzy herself. She turned what could have been a simple sightseeing trip into a powerful and educational experience. If you are considering a visit to the DMZ, do not think twice. Book with Lizzy. She is professional, passionate, and sincerely cares about giving her guests an unforgettable, well paced, and safe experience. You will come away with incredible photos, meaningful stories, and a new perspective that will stay with you long after you leave Seoul. Thank you, Lizzy, for an unforgettable day. I would book another tour with you without hesitation.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We had an incredible experience with Yoon Seoul City Tours on our DMZ visit! Yoon was so enthusiastic, knowledgeable, and genuinely passionate about sharing Korea’s history. Her storytelling brought every site to life, and her warmth made the day feel personal and memorable. If you want a tour that’s informative, engaging, and filled with energy — Yoon is absolutely the best guide in Seoul!
