I'm Irish citizen and want to visit North Korea. Any ideas on getting visa or advice in general?

As Charlie said, you'll only be allowed entry if you are part of an organised tour entering from China. The tour will be accompanied by a North Korean guide. A adventure company like Explore Holidays or GAP Adventures may be your first port of call. Alternatively, try a high street travel agent who are used to travellers visiting unusual travel locations like The Flight Centre or TrailFinders.





Also bear in mind that having a North Korean stamp in your passport will prevent travel to some countries. You may be best applying for a second passport to get round this issue.I'm Irish citizen and want to visit North Korea. Any ideas on getting visa or advice in general?
North Korea is a completely closed country. tThey do not allow individuals to travel there as tourists. Only organized groups may go and they must be accompanied at all times by North Korean ';Guides.'; Usuallu groups must enter through China. You may be able to get info from a travel agent.
