Has anyone here ever been to North Korea? Is it even possible for Singaporeans to enter their country? I would like take a trip down to North Korea one day and experience life in a closed communist state. So any ideas how to do that?
Look what 2 snooping US journalists did, and what happened to them. They are now sentenced to serve 12 years of hard labour.
They were spying into their country and crossed the border illegally. I'm trying to enter the legal way. And no I'm not spying for any organization thank you.
wow...I would love to go there too. Anyway, there's group tour from sg to north korea but I think you can't roam freely
they use to have tour group to go there but i will cause you a bomb. im not sure their still have it as NK dont seem friendly
Group tour? Where to apply for such group tour?

Oh yea? hmm the weather sounds nice there you say? Maybe so... but I bet the weather is the last thing you'll worry about if you ever get to enter North Korea.

Here you go. It is not cheap though.
Go at your own risks ok?
Never thought of going there...
I have gone to DPRK on group tour.
Universal Tours IIRC.
For the Arirang Festival. Usually have to fly to Beijing, collect visa(if not done here then do there), then fly to Pyongyang. Then there got a lot of restriction.
Oh btw, dun worry about ur passport, coz the DPRK officials wun stamp it.
Interesting...
It can be done, you just need the visas and paperwork to be done, and you'll accompanied by a guide appointed by the government throughout your trip.

We all cannot anyhow take photo. Like for example. A statue of Kim Il-Sung, "the Eternal Leader", we cannot just take his head or part of the statue. We must take the entire statue or dun take at all. The guides will look thru all your photos and delete those they deem not satisfactory.
So basically almost everyone's shots are the same. You can google them out.
Wow... so strict.
Yes,there are tour to N.Korea from People's PArk Complex but don't expect a free and easy day on the missile sites or a moonlight swim to Mr Kim Grand Palace.

I like the way your phrased it, 'It will cause you a bomb'
actually it is the bomb that will cause you.
