Tour reviews?

DH and I did the KTTK tour last trip and just loved it. I was thinking about booking one or both of the Epcot tours (Hidden Treasures of WS and Undiscovered Future World) or the Backstage Magic tour. Most of the reviews on allears were pretty dated. Anyone have any recent reviews?

I thought that UnDiscovered Futureworld was excellent. Actually I enjoyed it more than KTTK because I'm more of an Epcot person than a MK person.I haven't taken Backstage Magic yet because I was afraid that the MK part would duplicate a lot of KTTK, can anyone confirm or deny that?

I was wondering that as well. Anybody know how similar they are?

We just did the Backstage Magic tour on Friday and thought it was very good. We started out at Epcot's American Adventure and saw the mechanism that raises the animatronic figures - it was fascinating. We went to Cast Member services and Epcot costuming. We went to the WDW shops (where they build things) and to the Holiday decoration area. We had a great lunch at Mama Melrose's and we visited the Utilidors at MK. We also looked at Mainstreet and watched the afternoon parade. It was fun to see the contrast in forced perspective - where they worked to make the American Adventure look smaller but Mainstreet was made to look bigger. Our tour guide was named Kris and she certainly knows her stuff. She was excellent. It is a 7 hour tour but it went very quickly. The only other tour we've done is Dive Quest so I can't compare it to any of the ones you mentioned.
