Park Tours

[April]

We have never taken one of the parks tours. Does anyone have any recommendations?

Hubby loved the Segway thing. Son loved the Pirate Cruise from the GF (and I loved the quiet down time). We also really enjoyed the Family Magic Tour. Hope this helps!

Keys To The Kingdom is fantastic, as well as UnDiscovered Futureworld.
The Around The World On A Segway tour is AMAZING!!!
Call 407-WDW-TOUR for more info.
Oh, by the way, ask about discounts that may be available on the tours.
AP, AAA, DVC and Disney Visa all qualify.

Hidden Treasures of the World Showcase - a major snoozer. Nothing I hadn't already heard. But maybe with a better guide it might have been different.

Wild by Design - Very interesting...and tour guide pointed out stuff I never would have seen otherwise.

Almost took the MK one, but didn't. That's next on the list!!!!

I'm sorry to report that I agree with Cool-Beans, regarding the Hidden Treasures of World Showcase being dull. I so looked forward to it, plus, it was more expensive than some of the other, better tours! The guide was not good, she spoke too softly and not only couldn't answer many of my questions, she didn't bother to find out. She promised to email with answers, never happened.
Don't let that scare you away from behind the scenes tours, normally they are fab!

DH did the Magic Behind the Steam Train tour and enjoyed it. ($40 for 3 Hours)

DD11 and I did the Epcot Aqua Seas Tour and it was a blast. ($100 for 3 hours)

We wanted to get into the Family Magic Tour but it was all booked up for the day that we wanted it.

Any questions about either tour, ask away!!

DW and I did the Segway tour. As a Trekkie, I loved it; she could take it or leave it. One problem with a group tour like this is that its progress depends on the skill level of its least-accomplished member. So if you have a group of Segway prodigies, you'll be scooting along like nobody's business. But if you have just one person who can't seem to understand what the phrase "lean forward" means, you'll find yourself chomping at the bit to get going.

I loved Keys to the Kingdom...am looking forward to the Segway.

My sister and dad did the Backstage Safari and loved it! They got to get up close and personal with the animals.

My mom and I did the KEys to the Kingdom because we had heard good things. However, our tour guide was horrible! I am sure that the tour could have been good with any other tour guide. If you do take this tour I can give you the name of ours so that you can request not to have her!

Have done the Keys to the Kingdom tour and really enjoyed it. Looking forward to the Segway tour next.

I have done the segway tour and loved it.

I also did the 7 hour back stage magic. I loved that too. We went back stage in MGM, Epcot and MK. We also saw lots of other out of park back stage stuff which was really interesting. I would do both tours again.

We did both the Segway Tour and KTTK in MK this summer when DD turned 16. Loved both--such different perspectives of WDW to be had Both have an age requirement of 16 and Segway has a weight limit of I believe 200-250#. We'll do the Segway again this summer; I'm checking out others that will interest DS-19 and DH too
