Unforgettable DMZ: Korean Border & Gondola Experience from Seoul
What is the DMZ – an exciting experience like no other While the Cold War happened a long time ago, Korea is the only country that still remains divided as a consequence. The DMZ lies on the border between the North and the South. This is the most heavily fortified border in the whole world, so don’t miss the chance to see it! OPTIONAL : Gondonla Gondola tour is one of our most popular DMZ tours and can also be an excellent alternative to our DMZ Tour when political or military events restrict access to some of the stops on those tours. OPTIONAL : Red Suspension Bridge The Gamaksan Red Suspension Bridge is the longest suspension bridge in Korea at 220m long and 1.5m wide. It can hold up to 900 adults and is constructed to withstand 30 meters per second winds and earthquakes of up to 7 magnitude. Its stunning scenic views make it the perfect spot to capture beautiful photos, and it is always well-received.

We enjoyed the DMZ tour a lot, thanks to our guide Judy teaching us the history of the Korea war in detail and making us feel how people living in that era felt like.

An amazing tour of the DMZ! Our tour guide Kelly was fantastic! Really informative and made it such an interesting and educational experience. The entire trip was well organised by VIP travel and we were able to fit in multiple sites without feeling rushed. Could not recommend this tour anymore!
