Backstage Tales Tour question

[LindaOwl1]

Has anyone taken this AK tour? If so, where does it end? Do you end up back at the entrance or in Africa or where? The tour is 7:30-11:15 and I am trying to figure out where to have lunch and line up F+.
Also, does this tour take you on safari or any other ride?

We did it last year. I don't remember exactly where it ended, but I think we came out from the backstage area near Yak & Yeti area. It does not include the safari or any ride. We booked it for the first one of the day, made ADR for 12ish, & all our FPs for after lunch.

Thanks. I called the tour dept and was told it ends by the train to Rafiki. So either that or by Y&Y - at least I know it's not likely back by the entrance and can plan something in Africa or Asia. Also good to know there is no safari included so I will F+ that.

We liked it. It's interesting & they drove us around backstage, so that was nice. Our DD was 13 att, she's very interested in animals, so she liked it. But I don't think kids who are not interested in animals would like it. We got to see a rhino, some tigers, & elephants. All from a safe, no touching distance. Also they give you some type of worm like things to feed the birds.

Thanks for the feedback, just 2 adults this time and my fiancee LOVES animals, so I think we will do it
