NORTH KOREA BEFORE YOU GO

Under North Korean law, every group of foreign

tourists must have at least two accompanying

local North Korean tour guides at all times. This

is regardless of whether the “group” is made

one or more tourists. Tourists are strongly dis-

couraged to wander out of the hotel without the

guides.

These guides are usually caring, entertaining and

professional. They are there to serve, guide and

keep tourists safe. When tourists break any

laws, they are also putting their guides at risk.

Itineraries may be changed at the last minute

due to events in North Korea or otherwise, even

after the tour has commenced. These changes,

usually implemented by the North Korean gov-

ernment, affect all tourists in North Korea. We

cannot bear any responsibility for such occur-

rences.

An example is that a certain area may suddenly

be declared out of bounds to tourists due to a

political event (eg. meeting between politicians

at the DMZ, border between North and South

Korea).

If there should be such an unfortunate turn of

events, the tour guides will usually make alter-

native plans.

INDEPENDENT TOURS from China Dandong/Beijing

Independent tours are suitable for:

Tourists who prefer not to travel with gen-

eral group tours.

Tourists who prefer to travel either alone or

only with their own friends/family.

Tourists who prefer to customise their own

itineraries/schedules, including length of

stay in North Korea.

Just as for our group tours, independent

tours depart daily.( train from Dandong runs

every day/ flight from Beijing– Pyongyang

according to the schedule of flight )( train

ride tour is more economic than flight from

Beijng).

Upon request, we can suggest some sample

itineraries. Please contact us for suggestions,

giving preferences for places to visit, number

of days of stay, number of tourists, etc.

More information on sample itineraries and

prices can be found on our website

www.explorenorthkorea.com under

“Independent Tours”.

TOUR CODE: IDXA

Kim Il Sung Square Pyongyang

Points to note:

Under North Korean law, there will be a min-

imum of two local Korean tour guides ac-

companying every tour group, regardless of

whether the “group” consists of one person

or more.

With the exception of movement within ho-

tel premises, it is compulsory for all tourists

to be accompanied by these official tour

guides. Truly independent (unguided) tour-

ing in North Korea is not possible.

For customised itineraries, approval from the

relevant North Korean departments must be

obtained. This can take some time, so ad-

vanced planning is recommended.

Just as with group tours, independent tour

itineraries may be changed at the last mi-

nute due to events in North Korea or other-

wise, even after the tour has commenced.

These changes, usually implemented by the

North Korean government, affect all tourists

in North Korea. We cannot bear any respon-

sibility for such occurrences. In the unfortu-

nate event that itineraries need to be

changed, he local guides will usually be able

to make alternative plans.
