Star Wars Guided Tour Special Needs

[WLodgeLizard]

We are considering the Star Wars Guided Tour, but have some concerns with our special needs. Our DS18 is in a WC and is tube fed.
- We usually have to take him to First Aid for diaper changes during the day. Do you know if they have breaks during the tour to allow us to take him to First Aid? I guess worst case we could go while the group is doing something like Star Tours, which he wouldn't be able to ride anyway.
- Do they ever allow for age\wheelchair exceptions to do the Jedi Training? I'm not sure if he would be interested or not, but wasn't sure if something that was an option.
- I'm guessing that we wouldn't be able to get a discount based on the fact that he would not be able to eat any of the desserts (tube fed) or ride some of the rides (can't transfer)??
- Are there any other parts of the tour that are not accessible besides Star Tours?
- Would we still use the same firework viewing location, or is there a different location for wheelchairs?

TIA

I don't know much about that specific tour as it is new, but I do not believe an exception will be made on the age of the participants for jedi training, nor will a discount be offered based on the inability to eat or fully participate in aspects of the tour. (This is based on the policy at other all you care to eat places that everyone over 3 pays even if you do not eat.)

plan on being told you cannot leave the Tour. no exceptions or discounts are made based on age, or eating habits.

1 I have not done this tour but I did do another VIP tour there were breaks in this one, and at one time I had to use the restroom and the tour guide just told me were to meet the group at.

2 no they do not on another board it has been asked a lot and people are saying no.

3 no you will not be given a discount because of the fact that he can not eat.

4 not sure

5 I think you will have the same location

Have you thought of just doing the fire work dessert party instead of the tour it would be cheeper and you would not have to worry about changing your son and find the right time to do so and then trying to find your group and it sound like he will miss out on a big part of the tour. I think they also do meet a greets too so that he can do ( and do with out the tour I believe )

you may want to call the tour line and ask them your question to see what they say.

Unfortunately there is no exception for the age limit for JTA
