End of another tour...

We have just returned from our September Arirang tour, which had 14 people from 8 different countries. 4 doing a 5 day tour, 7 doing a 7 day tour, 1 doing a 9 day tour, and 2 doing a barmy 10 day tour!!! The tour was really good fun, with a few interesting "firsts" for our company, for more information on the tour itself, check out the blog. The tour also put us at over a hundred people for the year. Still a few more tours left for the year, and we intend to put up the 2011 program as soon as time permits.

Mt Kumgang and Hamhung opened to tours

We are happy to announce the oppening of two destinations available to our tours. The first is Mt Kumgang resort, which was previously ran through South Korea. Our June group were lucky enough to be one of the first group of tourists allowed in this area through the Northern side. This is now available as an option for all independent tours. Hamhung on the east coast of Korea is also now open to our tours, with us planning to take our first group there this September. It is also available for all independent tours, although some restrictions still apply to US and Japanese passport holders. For more details please e-mail us.
