We really were lucky having guide Nova from VIP travel as our guide for our day trip. She was very professional and engaging with our family of 5, describing in detail the history and significance behind the sites we visited on our tour. She was very patient and kind with the children as well! As we were ending the tour, she even sent us some recommendations for dinner near our hotel. We had a wonderful tour with an excellent guide!

Our DMZ tour with Sunny was phenomenal! Sunny was extremely knowledgeable and we truly enjoyed our day. Her company has exclusive access to a brand new JSA (Joint Security Area) Museum and it was the highlight of the tour! It brought the Korean experience to life and gave us a true understanding of the evolution of the relationship between North and South Korea. A must visit! Sunny was a warm, lovely person and we will definitely book another tour with her the next time we visit Seoul!

This was a great tour! We were picked up at our hotel by a very nice driver along with our own personal tour guide. She was very interesting and informative about South Korea, the war and about the DMZ. The weather was very hot, as we were there in early September during a heat wave. She was able to alter the tour a little for us so we were not spending too much time in the heat. While at the tunnel she helped us look around the store to suggest what to buy. She took so many pictures of us all. All in all a great tour and we all found it very interesting.

Absolutely amazing experience! Ray and VIP tours went out of their way to make our private tour experience one of the most memorable moments in our lives. The DMZ is a MUST DO for anyone visiting South Korea. Our guide Ray was incredibly knowledgable and funny! I would recommend anyone to request him as a guide!

I was on Summer holiday with my family (my wife and twins-a boy and a girl both 11 years old) in Seoul. We booked a private tour to the DMZ throught Viator Alice of VIP Tour was our guide and Andy was our driver.
Alice was an excellent guide. She was very knowledgeable and told us many stories about Seoul and the DMZ. My kids love her too and we highly recommend her to other travelers.
Andy drove very well and got us to all of the sight seeing spots right on time.
Thank you Alice and Andy for looking after us!
