I cannot recommend Mi Young Lee from Seoul City Tour enough. Her extensive knowledge of the DMZ and the Korean War truly set this tour apart. Rather than simply sharing facts, she helped us understand the broader historical context and emotional significance behind each location and event. Living in a peaceful era, it was eye-opening to learn how the legacy of the Korean War still shapes modern Korea. She was professional, well-organized, and always willing to answer questions in detail. Every explanation felt thoughtful and insightful. If you are looking for a guide who provides both depth and clarity, Mi Young Lee with Seoul City Tour is an excellent choice.

Our experience with Mi Young Lee from Seoul City Tour was truly exceptional. From the very beginning, it was clear that her expertise lies deeply in the DMZ and the history of the Korean War. She explained complex historical events in a way that was easy to understand yet emotionally impactful. Her storytelling helped us grasp not only how the Korean War began, but also how it continues to influence the relationship between North and South Korea today. She encouraged thoughtful questions and answered each one with patience and depth. Thanks to her passion and professionalism, this tour felt meaningful rather than just informational. I highly recommend Mi Young Lee from Seoul City Tour to anyone seeking a deeper understanding of Korea’s history.

There was an overwhelming sadness for me during the visit for some unknown reasons. Lives lost, kins separated and a country that is supposed to be one split into 2. I think it is a once in a lifetime experience to visit the only DMZ in the world and see with your own eyes many things can cannot even be photographed. Sadie was a great guide who provided clear and detailed explanations along the way and has great time management with the tour group.
