Is undercovertourist.com a reliable ticket vendor?

What is your experience ordering from them? Trying to decide whether to go ahead with a ticket purchase before they go up.

Ive never used them or heard of them.

Ive used both Mapleleaf tickets and TicketMania - and would reccomend both.

Why don't people buy tickets thru the WDW site? For us, they were actually cheaper than the others posted here. (We just got the basic 2 day passes.)

Most of the others don't sell 2-day passes b/c the profit margin is either non-existant or very slim. The more days you add to a ticket, the more savings you'll get from a ticketbroker over what Disney charges.

Also, Disney does not include tax (6.5%) in their price quotes or shipping charges if you want to get your tickets before you get there. Most ticketbrokers include the tax in their prices and many also ship for free.

Another consideration is that most of the ticketbrokers will deliver the tickets to your offsite hotel, resort or condo. Disney won't.

Thanks! With tax and $3 shipping Dis was still cheaper - probably bcuz they are only 2 day passes.

We ordered twice with no problems. First time I had the tickets delivered to the house--arrived in 2 days. Second time we picked them up in a plaza near Universal. Very nice to deal with!

The prices sure look great. I am tempted to also place an order. Any other feedback?

TIA,
Nancy

I just ordered from them for the first time - received an almost immediate confirming e-mail with mailing date - I'm pleased, and I have never heard anything less than good about them.

I was unsure myself and sent an email to Mousesavers and they sent me back a reply:

I believe they are okay -- I've had no bad reports on them. I don't link to them because normally Ticket Mania beats their prices. However, right now UnderCoverTourist seems to have a few of the 2005 tickets left at the lower prices. Ticket Mania is sold out of the 2005 tickets so their prices reflect the 2006 rates that became official yesterday.

My guess is that by tomorrow or so the prices will go up to 2006 rates at UnderCoverTourist, so if you want to grab that price, I would suggest doing it right away!


I went and bought a set of 4 10 day MYW / No expiration and saved almost 250.00

I woke up from two weeks of holiday parties, houseguests and dinner guests on the first (not literally!!!!) to realize we forgot to buy our tickets before Jan 1 as I had heard the tix would most likely increase. (I hadn't a chance to visit my favorite dis board, where I am always kept in the know on everything!) I was totally depressed when I checked ticketmania through mousesavers on New Years day to see that our 10 day non exp premiums were going to be nearly $300 more than on 12/31. I did some jumping tonight and took a chance and ordered the tix from undercovertourist too. I also got an intstant reply confirming the order and the prices were the 2005 prices. I will come back when the tickets come in. I also noticed that discount orlando had 2005 ticket prices, but for some reason, went with Undercovertourist. TIcketmania prices were so much more! I am so grateful for you guys- I would not have known about them without you. I was so frustrated that after nearly six months of watching ticket prices, we missed it with all the holiday bustle and failed to get the 2005 prices. Thanks to all you folks!

I just got our tickets from Undercovertourist too. 10 day, hopper with no expiring and saved $172. Thanks for posting this.

Thank you for posting! I got my mom her 2 day MYW hopper and saved her 9.00!

New here and I'm confused I went and looked at their prices and they are really good! My question is that if I get a 4 day MYW pass, that means I can't go to more than one park in one day, but I CAN go to the different parks on separate days right???

 

[Sandra & Mark]

You'd need the hopper option if you want to go to more then 1 park in one day

 

[ntengwall]

Do people usually go to more than one in one day? Seems like that would be really tiring! I just don't see us doing that with 3 kids under the age of 9 so I think the basic MYW (without Hopper option) makes the most sense for us. Would you agree?

I really would encourage you to spend the extra money for the park hoppers -the flexibility is really worth the money. Some of the smaller parks might not take a whole day, and there may be something going on at night in a different park. You need the hoppers to get to do this, as another poster confirmed.

I've just had the chance to get back to this thread after asking the question on the 31st. I went ahead and ordered from undercovertourist.com on Sunday (1st) since they still had the tickets I wanted (10 day MYW Hoppers w/ no expiration) at 2005 prices. It was a considerable savings compared to the increased 2006 price at Ticketmania. I, too, got a very quick email confirmation of my order. I have printed out my email confirmation as well as the page that came up on their website after I placed my order. Since I've not ordered from them before I wanted the transaction to be well documented. I will come back and report when I receive my tickets. Since others have said they have had good experiences with them, I'm hoping for the same thing!

We went to WDW 7 or 8 times before buying park hoppers last year for the first time. Now that we've been to all of the parks multiple times we like to park hop to do our favorite rides/shows (we usually do 2 parks in one day). Before that we always spent the whole day in the individual parks but each trip we would pick 2 WDW parks in order to give us some down time plus we would do a day at Sea World or US/IOA. If we were going to all 4 parks on EVERY trip we would have started buying park hoppers sooner. If this is your first trip I wouldn't think you would need hoppers but that's just my opinion.

We got our tickets for last Christmas from there. They were the cheapest we found, more cheap than anywhere. We bought 5 tickets, and hubby thinks he remembers they were about $20 cheaper for each ticket when we purchased the 7 day Hoppers-Plus tickets. They were based in England and we got them in the mail about 3 days later! We also bought from them some other things, like VIP passes to Planet Hollywood. They were the BEST, and we will definitely go with Undercover Tourists next time.

Good luck!
