Paju City's DMZ Peace Tour starts at Imjingak, an hour or so north of Seoul, and crosses into the Civilian Control Zone to the Third Infiltration Tunnel and Dora Observatory, where North Korea is in view.

Every visitor's identity is checked before a ticket is sold, so carry your passport. The tour has no guide of its own, and it can stop at any time for security threats, weather or safety.

Before you go

  • Arrive in the morning; afternoon tickets go first on busy days.
  • The tunnel is narrow and steep, and visitors with limited mobility may not be allowed in.
  • Visits inside the DMZ itself, such as Panmunjom, are not part of this tour.
