I need some info on the segway tour at EPCOT. I want to get this for my dh bd on our nov/dec trip. I want to know am I allowed to come watch him or do I have to stay at a certain place while he does the tour. I am unable to do the tour so that is out. :thumbsup2
 
The experience starts with 1 hr. of training. I don't think they will permit you in the training room. For sure, I know you can't come on the tour, since the 10 riders and the 2 CM instructors are permitted into the WS before it opens at 11:00am. If your DH is on the early tour, you might not even be permitted into the park with him. Your name has to be on a list in order to be admitted early.
However, you can watch him at the end of the tour. If he's on the 8:30am tour, he will be exiting the WS at the bridge between UK and France at approximately 10:15 - 10:30am. If FutureWorld opens at 9:00, you will be able to enter anytime after that and walk over to the UK to meet him as he's heading over to Innoventions. He should bring a camera with him. There are photo ops during the tour.
Here is a link to all tour info, or you can call 407-WDW-TOUR to ask questions. http://allearsnet.com/btp/tours.htm

I hope he has fun, it is an awesome experience. I've done it twice! :thumbsup2
 
I don't think there is any way to watch the tour. Your best bet may be to sleep in and then meet DH after. If you are not taking the tour you probably won't even be admitted into the park.
 
You could sign him up for the two-hour 9:30 tour. He would have one hour of training and then the group will head to the World Showcase for an hour. Since World Showcase opens at 11:00 a.m., you could be in the WS and see him at the end of the tour.

By the way, we did this tour and had BIG fun! I'm sure your husband will enjoy!
 

Thanks everyone for your input on the segway tour. I think he is going to do it. I will go to another park and do my thing,it will be nice being on my own. So will tell you how he does in nov. :wave:
 
My son and his two friends did the Segway tour in March and my DH and I were ENCOURAGED to stay and watch the training! SO we did that for a few minutes and took pics then we headed to Soarin to ride and get the boys Fast Passes (we took their park passes with us to feed in the machine). Worked great. We met them as they came back over the WS bridge at the end of their tour. More photos. Lots of fun.
 
There is no real way for anyone to watch the whole tour. As others have said you can wait for the tour group to exit WS and take pictures theres. When we went in October we also had a period of "free riding" in the area near Italy. If your DH took the later (9:30) tour you might catch him there, although I think it might still be before WS opens to the public. We took the early tour.
It was a BLAST and the highlight of our trip. I think he will enjoy it. It will make a nice BD surprise for him.
