We are very pleased to announce the Ebola border restriction has been lifted and the country is once again open to tourism. The travel suspension, in place since the 24th of October 2014, prevented all tourists from entering the DPRK. This is no longer the case, and we are taking bookings as normal for all of our 2015 tours.

If you have travelled to either Guinea, Liberia, Sierra Leone, Senegal, Mali, Cote d’lvoire, Guinea Bissau within 21 days prior to travelling with us to the DPRK please alert us. This also includes transfers within these countries.

This is excellent and greatly anticipated news, and we would like to thank everybody who has been in contact with us during the ban for their patience whilst dealing with their tour. We look forward to seeing you all in the DPRK. As always, we will let you know of any updates through our website, Facebook, and Twitter.
