Description
Explore the Paju DMZ and discover a land of hope, resilience, and unity. This tour offers a unique opportunity to learn about the region's rich history and complex dynamics, and take you to Paju, Camp Greaves, Peace Gondola and more.
Embark on an extraordinary Paju DMZ Tour and immerse yourself in a journey that transcends boundaries. Departing from three convenient meeting points in the heart of Seoul, this tour promises an unforgettable exploration of the demilitarized zone and its surroundings for shared tours, or dedicated pickup for private tours.
Our adventure begins at Imjingak Park, where you'll discover the symbolic Freedom Bridge—a poignant reminder of the hope for reunification. Take a moment to reflect as you stand on this historic bridge, witnessing the remnants of a divided past slowly blending into a shared future.
Next, prepare to be captivated by the serene beauty of the Peace Gondola ride. Glide gracefully across the river, feeling the gentle breeze against your skin as you traverse the waterway. This enchanting experience provides a unique vantage point to appreciate the significance of the Civilian Control Line before lunch (at your own expenses).
Our journey continues to Camp Greaves, a once-active U.S. military camp nestled within the 'Civilian Control Line.' Prepare to step into the shoes of soldiers and military uniforms, create personalized dog tags, and embrace the opportunity to strike a pose as if you were a star in a Korean drama filmed on-site. These immersive activities offer a glimpse into the lives of those who dedicated themselves to safeguarding the peace.
As the day progresses, we make our way to the magnificent Odusan Unification Tower. Ascend to the observatory deck and marvel at the breathtaking panoramic views of both South and North Korea. Gain valuable insights into the contrasting landscapes and the resilience of the people who call these lands home.
Beyond the typical tourist experience, this tour is designed to awaken your senses, ignite your curiosity, and create lasting memories. It's an opportunity to go beyond borders, fostering understanding, empathy, and appreciation for the rich history and complex dynamics of the region.
Finally, we conclude our adventure by returning to Seoul around 6:00 pm at your choice of three convenient locations: Hongdae, Myeongdong or Dongdaemun for shared tour or at your pick-up point for private tours.
