A definite must do tour from Seoul - DMZ Tour is a must do when going to Seoul & it was a great eye opening experience. I needed to see this area as my father was posted near to border in middle of Korean war & spent a year there living in a tent in terrible war situation conditions..I felt this tour helped understand what it must have been like plus life is still hard for many of the people there who are still separated from their families.

Team Bill! - We booked our tour through Visitor, which was a straightforward process. Our tour guide, Bill, was excellent. Even before the tour began, he had reached out via WhatsApp to introduce himself, answer any questions and clarify the meeting arrangements. This was appreciated, as this was chaotic with multiple buses and people meeting and leaving at the same time. During the tour, Bill was great. He had excellent knowledge and was happy to answer any questions and share his real-life experiences. Thanks again, Bill.

He was attentive, caring, and gave great recommendations on what to buy and what each region is known for. His English was excellent, which made the experience even smoother. I highly recommend him as a tour guide.

Team Bill ! - I hope you get the chance to take a tour with Bill Hwang! It will make your trip even more special. If you want to share this experience with authenticity and sincerity, Bill is your man. He knows how to highlight his country's history while sharing the local culture with you, with anecdotes each more fascinating than the last. My sister and I are delighted with the time we shared as a group. We are leaving Korea with our eyes full of memories and our heads full of stories. And don't forget: Team Bill !

Team Bill - This was an amazing experience. We went with team Bill who was extremely knowledgeable and gave us incredible background on the history of the Korean conflict. His time management was great as we didn't feel rushed and were able to keep together as a group. He made the tour fun, solemn and relaxing even though it was a busy day. Highly recommend team Bill. He even stayed with two old ladies who were struggling to get back out of the 3rd tunnel. Thank you Bill

Interesting and enriching tour about the Korean War - This is a great tour but be prepared as it is indeed a full day tour! Wear your walking shoes. 😊 I learned a lot during each of the stops, and our tour guide Bill Hwang, was very knowledgeable, patient, and answered all our questions. I would recommend this tour for those interested in learning more about the history of the the Korean War and current state of affairs.
