VIP Full Day Seoul Private Sightseeing Tour Fully Custom to You
Description
Complete Freedom and flexibility Personalised private tours give you total freedom and flexibility. The tour itinerary and schedule is entirely focused and planned around you. More exclusivity While group tours rely on buses filled with other travellers, private tours allow you to choose who will accompany you on your trip. Special care and assistance Having your own personal guide and transportation provides you with that extra special care and attention. This is especially helpful if you are travelling with young children, elderly relatives, disabled travellers, those with medical conditions, special needs or mobility issues. Your own personal tap of local knowledge Having your own personal guide means there is no competing with other travellers to get the attention of your guide or to have your questions answered. Instead, you’ll have access to a tap of local culture and knowledge.

This is a must do! Our guide was Ray who guided us through DMZ with great determination. 100% suggested
Judy the guide was awesome. She was very knowledgeable of the area and we told her we did not have a lot of time and we saw a lot of stuff in a short time. Very grateful for her. Tom was an awesome driver and got us to the places quickly and safe safely.

We had an amazing time in Seoul, South Korea. VIP travel was very responsive and helped us create our 3 day itinerary. They even went above and beyond and booked our Hera Custom Lip Mask Appointments, scalp treatment appointments. Jenny was our guide for the whole trip and she was amazing. Spoke English very well and really took care of my 3 kids. I would highly recommend VIP Travel. Thank you to your team for making our trip memorable.
