Eugene is the King of the DMZ!!! - I had the pleasure of having Eugene of Seoul City Tour be my guide for a tour of the Paju DMZ. Before the tour he was extremely communicative with details of the tour, helping me understand how things would work so I could be prepared. He was knowledgeable, fun, a great general conversationalist. The day of the tour he was early at my hotel so there was no waiting. That day it was very cold and he came prepared with hand warmers, snacks and water. I am an English speaker and he was perfect on the language. I also had limited time and he ensured it was an efficient trip. I would highly recommend him.

5 star tour!! - Erika’s DMZ tour was outstanding—informative, engaging, and genuinely exciting from start to finish. Her deep knowledge of the history and current realities of the DMZ really brought the experience to life, and her passion for the subject was clear in every explanation.
