If our scheduled group tours don’t match your travel dates or interests, we can create your very own North Korea private tour. Our independent tours are suitable for all solo travellers, couples, friends, families and travel groups.
Not only can we organise your trip on any dates to suit you, but our experienced sales agents can also make bespoke itineraries tailor-made to exactly what you want to see and do! Whether you want to visit a specific city, go for a hike in the mountains, watch a football match, partake in a Korean study language program, see the must-see sights of Pyongyang, or try a specific restaurant you’ve read online, YPT are the company for you! We offer the cheapest rates to North Korea.
During your private tour you will be accompanied by two local Korean guides (several languages are available), and you will have your own driver and vehicle.
We have staff in China that are able to meet you, assist you, answer your questions and ensure you have a great trip before your tour commences. Not all North Korean tour companies offer this service. If you’d like to explore an independent tour option, please contact us. We can customise your unique visit to North Korea for you.
