The DMZ (Demilitarized Zone) is a buffer zone that separates South and North Korea. Established in 1953 following the armistice agreement of the Korean War, the DMZ is 4 kilometers wide. Despite its name, it is one of the most heavily guarded borders in the world. This tour is not just a visit to a historical site; it is also a journey toward understanding the reality of division and the hope for peace on the Korean Peninsula.

“Sally was a great guide in Seoul ”

We love spending the day with Sally as she guided us through the historic parts of Seoul. She really loves Korea and you can tell the pride that she has in her country. She also guided us through some of the Korean beauty shops and helped me navigate the sometimes overwhelming selection. I would highly recommend using her as a guide. She speaks English beautifully and has an amazing personality. We all loved her.

Sally K.

Thank you so much for your kind words. I truly enjoyed guiding a lovely family, and seeing how much you appreciated Korean history, culture, food, and K-beauty made my day even more rewarding! It was my great honor to be your guide, and I hope to see you again someday. I miss you already and love you all too! :)
