Ron Solo! - Ron Solo was our guide and it was a super interesting tour. He was really informative and spoke wonderful English. Some of the instructions were a bit unclear about our itinerary, but our family is kind of go-with-the-flow and it wasn’t a problem for us. What a great tour!

Good tour… depending on who is on the bus with you - Jackie the storyteller did a great job explaining Korean history relevant to the DMZ tour. The observation platform and tunnel were highlights of the trip. Unfortunately a large portion of the tour was late to rejoin at the bus throughout the tour, loud and disrespectful during explanations, and overall rude thus impacting our experience. It lead to the back end of the tour getting rushed. Not recommended for young kids or parents disinterested in history or general learning.

Excellent guide, Jackie was very knowledgeable and professional. - We enjoyed the trip very much, but had some inconveniences, every time we were down from the bus, some people were taking our seats m, even when we left our belongings on it, so we had to go around looking for empty seats separately, I noticed it affected just to two of us, it would be better is that is addressed at the boarding time.
