Transport Options for North Korea Group Tours

Option 1 | Round-trip train (Beijing-Pyongyang-Beijing): A 24-hour train journey each way in hard-sleeper class (six bunks per berth) with a transfer in Dandong, China. The train arrives in Pyongyang approximately three hours after the flight so train arrivals will miss one or two activities in the city. This option is for those travelling on a budget with time to spare (and train enthusiasts, of course). [+0 EUR]

Option 2 |  Flight departure (Beijing-Pyongyang | 90 minutes) + train return (Pyongyang-Beijing | 24 hours):  In our view, this is the most comprehensive way to visit the DPRK. We highly recommend this option: it maximizes your time and sightseeing opportunities; lets you experience both Air Koryo and the international train; plus allows you to start the trip rested, while taking the leisurely route home. [+199 EUR]

Please note that one-way flights for tours starting between 1 April - 10 May and 1 September and 15 October will incur an additional 66 EUR surcharge levied by Air Koryo. Flights over the period of the Pyongyang Marathon will have an additional 136 EUR surcharge.

Option 3 | Train departure (Beijing-Pyongyang | 24 hours) + flight return (Pyongyang-Beijing | 90 minutes): An alternative to Option 2. This option is ideal for those wishing to take the train one-way of the journey, but need to transit through Beijing by flight on their return. Please note the train arrives in Pyongyang approximately three hours after the flight so train arrivals will miss one or two activities in the city.  [+199 EUR]

Please note that one-way flights for tours starting between 1 April - 10 May and 1 September and 15 October will incur an additional 20 EUR surcharge levied by Air Koryo. Flights over the period of the Pyongyang Marathon will have an additional 40 EUR surcharge.

Option 4 | Round-trip flight (Beijing-Pyongyang-Beijing): Choosing the round-trip flight option gets you between Beijing and Pyongyang in 1.5 hours (each way), and lets you experience the infamous Air Koryo ‘burger’ twice! For many nationalities, this also allows for the possibility of transiting in Beijing, rather than having to get a Chinese visa (please see below). This option is for those with little time to spare, travellers wanting simply to transit through China, or aviation enthusiasts. [+299 EUR during ]

Please note that one-way flights for tours starting between 1 April - 10 May and 1 September and 15 October will incur an additional 95 EUR surcharge levied by Air Koryo. Flights over the period of the Pyongyang Marathon will have an additional 140 EUR surcharge.
