Richard Bangs, Returns from North Korea and talks about this one of a cultural exchange.
Considering North Korea as a Tourism Destination

Richard Bangs not only considered it, he worked with the North Korean government for many years to finally bring the first US tourists to this 'Hermit Kingdom' in Sept of 2012.
These forerunners of North Korean tourism agreed to deposit their cell phones in plastic bags and hand them over for safe keeping while inside of North Korea. The US tourists were allowed to take cameras, laptops, and tablets inside the country.  

Richard (known as the Father of Modern Adventure Travel) is also the co founder of Expedia and Mountain Sobek Travel. He is passionate about leading unique tour experiences all over the world and his trip to North Korea is true to form.



Come listen at his knee as he describes in a fire side chat, the journey and the people he and his friends met along the way. His enthusiasm is infectious and his hope for a better future through travel is believable.
