I think everyone goes into the DPRK with some sort of image in their head as to how it's going to be. And then that image is subsequently turned upside down on arrival. The first thing you notice about DPRK Tours is that you are amongst a group of young and like-minded people, both with the Western guides and the other members of the group. I was expecting a serious, regimental and overly-restricted tour, and while not much can be done about the country's restrictions, DPRK Tours makes the experience surprisingly fun and uses their popularity amongst the Korean guides to squeeze a bit more out of the official itinerary, which, considering they're one of the cheapest tours around is great value. We even went to the only club in Pyongyang! I don't imagine many tourists can say that...
