From KRW 210,000Private DMZ Tour from Sokcho near Seoraksan Mt.
Most of the visitors to South Korea consider exploring the DMZ and tend to choose Gyeonggi-do routes that are mostly commercial, but this tour would likely be much more private and less crowded. Furthermore, this is an hour's drive away from the MT Seoraksan, so if you plan to visit the Seoraksan, you would be able to enjoy two attractions on one itinerary. Additionally, on the way back, you can enjoy North Korean cuisine for lunch and grab a chance to observe traditional Korean architecture. This area was formerly part of North Korean territory before the Korean War. * The team could be fewer than 4~5.
From KRW 200,000DMZ Tour for Sokcho Cruise Travelers in South Korea
The DMZ is considered a main landmark for visitors to South Korea and Most visitors tend to choose the Seoul route which is very crowded and complicated to visit. You can visit the DMZ on the edge of East Korea while disembarking at the Sokcho cruise terminal. It will be customized for the Sokcho cruise travelers. A local English-speaking guide with knowledge and experience will make your tour perfect and unforgettable.
From KRW 245,157Cheorwon DMZ and 2nd Tunnel Small Group Tour
*A minimum of 4 participants is required. If fewer than 4 people register, the tour may be canceled. Step into Korea’s hidden history with our immersive Cheorwon DMZ tour—a powerful journey through one of the most heavily fortified yet lesser-known border regions. Start your day with a convenient pick-up from Seoul, then head to the 2nd Infiltration Tunnel, an underground route once carved for covert movement during high tensions. Continue to the Cheorwon Peace Observatory, where you’ll get a clear view across the border into North Korea. After a break for lunch (not included), visit the Korean Workers’ Party Headquarters, a haunting structure that reflects Korea’s divided past. Then, take in the serene beauty of Cheorwon from above aboard the Soisan Monorail, surrounded by peaceful landscapes that contrast sharply with the area’s turbulent history.
From KRW 60,000Meditation Tour in Seoraksan Mountain
When exploring Seoraksan National Park, most global tourists pass by a Buddhist temple because there is no guided tour or enough information, but that is a thousand-year-old temple, which means there are many things worth learning and that will make your tour much more meaningful. After this tour, you will realize how Buddhist cultures have affected Korean people and culture. Moreover, you will learn how to meditate in your daily routine regardless of religion through simple tips. The tour could be canceled due to heavy rain. If you are a group of more than 3 members, a pick-up will be available from Sokcho.
