Exception being Memorial Day. Price is 750/hr.425/hour for a Monday in May. I had heard that Mondays and Tuesdays were the lowest rate. I didn't pick Monday because of that, but it did hold true.

Fwiiw, I did call at the 60 day mark for our last trip in April and was not able to book as there were no more spots left. I would encourage anyone wanting to book to make sure they are on the line right when the phone lines open if you plan to go during what will be a busy time of year. There are less VIP guides working atm.
We are not in the “money is no object” category. We are doing this to celebrate our 15 year wedding anniversary and have been saving to be able to do this. We also canceled our trip fall 2020 due to covid.Disney site shows pricing from $450-750 per hour depending on the day and a minimum of 7 hours. Clearly for those in the 'money is no object' category.
What is the current number to call and book? My 60 days from tour is Wednesday.
A couple weeks ago, I booked for two days, one on June 7 and one on June 10. I had a resort reservation that covered both of the days, and they allowed me to book both days on the first day that June 7 was available (60 days out).
I waited about 15 minutes, so I was happy I didn't have to call again for the June 10th one.
Note that both of my days are my Hollywood Studios days, and the CM suggested that I don't try to get Ride of the resistance during the tour (mainly because of the length). Those are my only two days though and I already had all my dining reservations plans done, so it would be too hard to move around.
We did it for my 50th bday a few years ago. It was the best bday present ever. Enjoy!We are not in the “money is no object” category. We are doing this to celebrate our 15 year wedding anniversary and have been saving to be able to do this. We also canceled our trip fall 2020 due to covid.

BEST GRANDMA EVER!Called 407-560-4033 this morning at 60 days from tour (the above number is for special services). I hit dial at exactly 9am eastern, there is a greeting that lasts approximately 30 seconds before telling you to push 0 to speak with someone for booking VIP. So I suggest as soon as the line picks up push 0. As I waited 33 seconds for the greeting/instruction I was put on hold about 35 minutes. I was able to book Sunday 6/20 and Friday 6/25, however. Sunday is Father's Day and is at the premium per hour (grandma is graciously paying for everything). So just FYI!
Nice! Interesting that the number I called (407-939-7777) is different. I didn't have to push any buttons.

Can you point me to these negative reviews? We have a tour booked in the beginning of June. I’d really like to see what they said. Everything I’ve seen so far has been positive.There have been some less than stellar reviews of late for the tours. I guess the magic is a little less magical of late under the new guidelines. We were considering it in December, but I think we might wait. I'm surprised that they don't allow RoR, not sure of other restrictions.

Agreed. I have read nothing but stellar reports from people who have actually done the VIP tours.
