I signed us up for a VIP tour that was $125 a person. We go next week, so I can't offer any advice yet. I called SW information and the gal was VERY helpful in describing the VIP tour to me.
Happy Planning

We will be there on June 1. I would be happy to let you know how it is. The gal at Sea World says it is the "worry about nothing tour" so we'll see.

Okay, so we did the VIP tour on Monday: worth EVERY penny of the cost. We started our tour at 10 am. (This is not in tour order, just my logic order!) We fed dolphins, sting rays and Sea Lions. We had front of the line access for Journey to Atlantis, Kraken and Manta! We did the ride as a group; so non-riders stayed with the other non-riders and the riders all had company. We had reserved seating at Blue Horizon, Believe and Clyde and Seamore. We ate lunch at Dine with Shamu (which includes unlimited of certain drinks; our tour became even more fun after a few of the free drinks ) We sat as a group for lunch as well. Our guide got us bottled water twice; pop was $3.19 each bottle and am guessing the water was the same price. We got our dolphin feeding pictures at a discount and a discount at two of the snack places. It was soooo nice to be led all around and not have to look at a map, a time schedule or even think about what was next. The 7 hours just flew by. The park was open until 10, but we left shortly after the tour. We were just so tired and had done so much.
Hope this helps.

We did not touch or feed penguins; that pavillion was not part of the tour. At lunch, we got Pepsi products and beer (can I say that) and they kept them coming and we got another one "to go"
I did not get a PM; just let me know if you have any more questions.
