Best tour for a 12-year-old boy?

[jfranklyn]

My husband and daughter are doing the segway adventure during our trip in August. So at the same time, I'd like to take my son on one of the behind-the-scenes tours. He is 12 and a disney veteran, although we've never done a tour with him. Which tour would be the best for someone his age that I would enjoy too?

I thought they discontinued the Segway tours. ???

Most tours that go behind the scenes have a minimum age of 16. One that I know doesn't - and that I have enjoyed - is the Magic Behind our Steam Trains tour. It starts before the park opens and takes you back to the train barn and you get a trip around the empty park on the train. We also got to watch the welcome show from inside the train station - taking care to stay out of view of guests watching the show from outside. I also remember the price being fairly reasonable.

You can find good descriptions of all of the tours here: http://allears.net/btp/tours.htm

There are a few that he can go on, but most are only for ages 16 and up. A photo ID will be required.

My DH and DS did the Wild Africa Trek when DS was 11. They loved it!
