I got picked up at the hotel in a very comfortable car that drive me to the met up point. The bus was very comfortable and air-conditioned. Our guide was Katie, she had a good energy and you can tell she loves her job. She gives a lot of information about the conflict between the south and the noth and many other interesting facts. She vas very helpful if there was questions or if you need help with somthing. The tour in conclusion was one of the best i have been too, it was really awesome! /Jonas

We were well looked after by the Headout team. Initial support until the tour was a little complicated due to the date being a local holiday. But the team got in touch and suggested changing the date and everything went well. The DMZ tour was packed with information and history. The transportation, the guide and the places visited were all incredible.

Katie, our tour guide was amazing! She was funny, quirky and so knowledgeable about the DMZ and Korea's history! Some of the memorable moments was the observatory, the 3rd tunnel and the overall efficiency of the whole experience. We stayed in an Airbnb so we met at Anguk Station Exit 1 which was conveniently close. Katie was on WhatsApp and responded very quickly to our questions and requests. Amy Park, was messaging me prior to the excursion to solidify pick up and even helped me with information to catch an early flight out next day. Great service overall! 10/10

We like the trip alot. After I didn't get any message until the late afternoon before the trip, I texted them and got a response right away. We settled the pick up point and the next day Jane arrived. The trip was great, we were given alot of pre-up historical informations before entering the DMZ. The atmosphere was great and everyone was having a good time. It's a big group, so we were travelling with like 35 people or so. The group was devided in 2 leaders so it was alright. The weather was great, so we could see to North Korea. It was a really impressive and intresting tour! There was not much waiting time and we came back to Seoul around the estimated time. I totall recommend this tour!
