Suggestions for alternative tour to Segway?

[RadioFanatic]

We had a segway tour scheduled, but as it may be cancelled - we are interested in hearing people's recommendations for another tour - we have done the Keys to the Kingdom Tour and hated it so that one is out.

Thanks!

no one has any recommendations?

I'm sorry I don't have a recommendation but why "might" the tour be cancelled? This was our favorite part of our last trip.
I wish they'd add it to other parks.

Sorry RadioFanatic...I don't have any suggestions either. The only tour I've taken is the Segway Tour.

Why didn't you like the Keys to the Kingdom tour? I have done a few tours including this one but unless I know what aspect of the tour you disliked I can't suggest another one as the Segway tour is the only tour of its kind.

I am not sure when you tour is scheduled for. But I am scheduled for the 30th of September and I called and spoke to a CM today in tours and she told me that as of right now they are only canceled for today and tomorrow the 14th and 15th. If further cancellations are necessary they will contact us and give a full refund. So I am keeping my fingers crossed that they are able to get the software upgrades and the tours will continue.

This is what I wrote on my trip report (grumpy is my dh):

"I was so totally excited about this tour and couldn’t wait, especially with the recommendations from this board. Grumpy was excited too. And I don’t know, maybe we were on a different tour, but I found it absolutely BORING. Maybe it was the CM we had, whose name I won’t give because the CM was an absolute sweetheart, had been with WDW almost 20 years and obviously loved Disney, but the tour almost killed me. I didn’t learn anything I didn’t already know, the CM was always pulling us into these out of the way corners where you couldn’t see anything to tell us long drawn out things, the standing for 4-5 hours without relief was killing me (that part I blame on us doing the tour the 5th day into the trip – if you’re going to do it, do it before your legs are tired). And quite frankly, I thought the backstage stuff was very short and not that interesting. We rode POTC and Haunted Mansion – but as my Grumpy said, if we had been at the park for 5 hours and only rode two rides on our own, we would be ticked off - and we paid for it! Afterwards, Grumpy said to me, that was five hours I’ll never get back. I never thought someone could make MK boring for me but it happened!"
