As of the 8th of November 2017, the Chinese authorities have announced they will temporarily suspend Chinese tourists from travelling with Chinese authorised travel companies to Pyongyang. We would like to confirm this does not affect Young Pioneer Tours or western travellers from travelling to North Korea (DPRK).

In recent years during political tensions China have previously halted Chinese tour companies from conducting tours with local Chinese tourists to destinations such as Japan, South Korea, Taiwan and the Philippines.

Our tours to North Korea will continue as normal and if you have any questions regarding our group or independent tours to North Korea please get in touch with us.
