In North Korea I had one of the best trips of my life. You will be surprised every day by one thing or the other. If you show respect, the local people will be extremely welcoming and willing to tell you their story.
The two guides we had were very helpful in letting us understand the North Korean history and culture. Nobody will try to brainwash you, instead you will be exposed to people who are eager to learn about your own culture.
The whole experience not even met, but definitely exceeded, my expectations. The trip is very well organized, the safety is not an issue at all, and you will have plenty of opportunities to see the real North Korea.
