Boat Tour

Here, we have another comparison featuring a North Korean tourist boat driver on the Taedong River in Pyongyang and his South Korean counterpart on the Han River in Seoul. While it is possible to embark on guided tours in North Korea, visitors should be ready for extensive surveillance during their journey. The government meticulously controls and shapes the tour experiences in North Korea, guaranteeing that tourists encounter only approved facets of the country.

In contrast, South Korea offers a more open and relaxed tourism environment, allowing tourists greater freedom and flexibility to explore its attractions and engage with local culture. These differences symbolize the contrasting approaches to tourism and the overall societal disparities between the two countries.
