Good to know. I ended booking that "Half DMZ Tour" from Koridoor, looks interesting indeed.

That's what I did. I sent emails to 3 different companies and unfortunately they all had the same schedule. I agree with you and really wanted to avoid the ginseng/amethyst shopping stops. The tour I booked has a lunch stop but no shopping stop.

Thanks for the info folks.
