Family magic tour

[REEREEG]

Would the Family Magic Tour be good for a child's first day at the magic kingdom?

I wouldn't do a tour on a first trip. Or even a second trip.

If it was a longer trip than maybe at the end, but first day, first trip, I think better not.

We did it a few weeks ago, and the kids needed to have a decent knowledge of the Magic Kingdom, as it was essentially a treasure hunt. If you don't know where you're going, it won't be much fun as yoi won't know where the clues will be.

Okay - thanks all!

For those who have done it recently, did you get to ride a ride as part of it? I've read a ton of old reviews, but nothing recent. We are doing it in March.

We did it last April with our kids that have been to MK a few times. Yes, you do a ride, but it doesn't seem like the tour always does the same ride each day, or at least we went on a different ride than some of the reviews that I read beforehand. You also do a couple of meet and greets. Overall we really enjoyed it and I would recommend it (except feeling maybe it was 15-20 minutes too long?), but I agree with the previous posters - if it's your child's first time in the MK, there's just so much to take in and so much excitement, it might be tough to focus on a tour!
