All tours for US citizens travelling to DPRK will have an opportunity to see this spectacular performance (100,000 synchronised gymnasts inside the world’s largest stadium), so book now to avoid missing out. Mass Games run only every few years so this is a unique opportunity to be part of history. Please see the Tours and Dates page of the website for dates and itineraries available during this time.

2010 Mass Games will include 90 minute gymnastic and socialist realism extravaganza and will be performed every evening except Sundays.

Korean Americans have a unique opportunity to visit the North this year. Please sign up as soon as possible as slots in each group, assigned to Korean Americans, are restricted by DPRK authorities and being filled fast. Sorry, but ROK (South Korea) passport holders are not allowed to North Korea with our tours.

Join the exclusive club of travelers visited the world's most reclusive state. Only a handful of American tourists managed in the past to sneak behind the "iron curtain" and you could be among them.

After success of the Arirang Festival and Mass Games in 2005 and 2008, the organizers decided to extend Mass Games into 2010.  And US citizens will be allowed to witness this the most magnificent show on Earth with more than 100,000 performers. The festival will run from August 1st until October 10th and all tours that go to DPRK during that time will have an opportunity to see this unique and spectacular performance twice.

While not everybody may know, US citizens can legally travel to North Korea (DPRK).

Since 1995 American tourists were allowed only on three occasions to visit DPRK – in 2002, 2005 and 2008. Overall less than 600 Americans have visited North Korea so far, so be among fue managed to cross the iron curtain. We have confirmation from North Korea officials that there will be another (and, who knows, may be the last) opportunity for Americans to visit DPRK (North Korea) in 2010.

For all Mass Games tours it is important that you book as early as possible. Pyongyang and the DPRK in general will be full of visitors at this time, so please reserve a space ASAP to be sure of being there to see this remarkable event and to experience North Korea at its most festive. We hope you can make it to DPRK with us for this great opportunity, if you are an American and have an interest in going to North Korea then book now, no telling when they will open up again!

Your itinerary will reveal the catalogue of revolutionary exhibits and 'miraculous feats' of their leaders but it also allows a great deal of contact with the Korean people. The stereotype of a 'robotic people' is soon be broken if you travel there, the Koreans are a very proud people and although their life is a struggle, their humor and warmth is unsurpassed. Europe, Canada, Australia have diplomatic relations with DPRK) and paradoxically it is one of the safest places to be in the world (and certainly the most memorable).

Many of our tourists found North Korea (DPRK) the most exotic and unusual tourist destination in the world and named it the highlight of their travel experience. If you are looking for a sensational adventure, an expedition full with thrill and strong emotions, then there is nothing better then North Korea! Until very recently, it was hardly possible to obtain any adequate information about North Korea as a tourist destination. Indeed, the country is in real isolation. Only a few thousand people are granted entry to the DPRK every year, and tourists compose only a fraction of this number. Despite the fact that DPRK Embassies have been open in many countries of the world, only a handful of travel agencies offer tours to North Korea. New Korea Tours is the only US based travel agency specializing in group and independent tours to North Korea.  Please check out our prices - the lowest on the market.

We are not a travel company who portray DPRK simply as a holiday destination with picturesque sights; we do try and tell the whole picture, to inform our tourists of the reality of the country. We tailor itineraries to make sure you get as much contact with the Korean people as possible. Please visit our travel Advise FAQ page for more information.
