Private Independent Tours to Rason by Koryo
NOTICE: As of 20 February 2025 only Rason Special Economic Zone in the North-Eastern part of North Korea (DPRK) in the Sino-Russo-Korean tri-border area is open for tourists. Other regions of North Korea (DPRK) remain closed until further notice.
Koryo Tours offers customised private independent tours based on more than 30 years of experience arranging tours to North Korea. The first Koryo Tours staff to enter Rason was co-found Josh Green in October 1995.
Contact us to get in touch with one of our expert tour managers who will help design a tour package for you based on your available dates, budget, and interests. Due to the limited number of sites in Rason tailored itineraries are not possible.
We offer 3-night and 4-night private independent tour packages to Rason. Since the Sino-Korean border checkpoint in Quanhe/Wonjong is only open on Mondays and Thursdays only these options are available.
Our base tour packages include transport between Yanji and the Sino-Korean border by chartered car, minibus, or bus depending on the number of travellers, Rason Entry Permit, accommodation in twin rooms in Rason, meals, and entry fees.
In Rason, two professional Korean guides will accompany your party and you will have your own driver and vehicle, allowing you to travel at your own pace. Koryo Tours staff provide a thorough pre-tour briefing on travel guidelines, etiquette, safety, and travel in North Korea, but do not accompany private tours in-country.
Base pricing depends on your group size and the length of the tour. Please see below for details and for upgrades.
For groups of 10 travellers or more, we can send one of our expert tour leaders to accompany your group for 150 USD per day. Our tour leaders' schedules fill up so contact us early!
