Overview

  • Go beyond a standard DMZ tour with PLK Travel's premium small group experience, limited to just 13 travelers. Instead of a 40-seat coach, you travel in a small van with more time to ask questions and a more personal day.

    Begin at our own North Korea Experience Center. See rare items, videos and exhibits on daily life in North Korea, then meet a North Korean defector face to face. In a group this size, the live Q&A becomes a real conversation rather than a lecture, so ask anything about life across the border.

    Continue to the key DMZ sites. Walk deep into the Third Infiltration Tunnel, dug by North Korea toward Seoul, and look across the border from Dora Observatory. Stop at Imjingak Park, built for families separated by the Korean War.

    Finish at the Gamaksan Suspension Bridge, once Korea's longest at 220 meters. Enjoy a light walk across it and wide views over the valley below.
