How did you end up getting a chance to visit North Korea?
- threeseed 11y agoThere are plenty of tours that operate in North Korea. Koryo Tours is one that I took a few years ago.

They'll be active again in Feb 2016: http://www.arrl.org/news/p5-3z9dx-concludes-demonstration-operation-from-north-korea http://www.arrl.org/news/p5-3z9dx-concludes-demonstration-op... http://www.eham.net/articles/35853 http://www.eham.net/articles/35853
- EliRivers 11y agoAt risk of repeating other respondents, you can just go. You can find a tour organiser and simply book onto one of their tours, or you can organise your own through the DPRK state tourism companies. Going with an established tour organiser is by far the easier way to do it. I went with Koryo Tours in 2012 and it couldn't have been easier; filled in the form, emailed my details, paid a deposit and the rest at the start of the tour. But to reiterate, you can just book on a tour. There's no problem or difficulty doing it.
