Ultimate Day VIP Tour at Food & Wine?

[MatzoBelle]

Did any of you try this (admittedly ridiculously overpriced) tour last year? I'm considering it if they offer it again, but would be curious to hear your first-hand opinions of it. Thanks a lot.

This is about all I can find online for reviews. To me it seems way over priced. I have seen nothing on 2015 as of yet.

The Food & Wine tour is different from the Day of Thrills tour.

Yes, I see that now, so noted. In that case, I don't think there are any I can find.

I found a description of it.

Seasonally, Disney is offering an “Ultimate Day at Epcot Food and Wine Festival” Tour. This tour, available on select days to guests 21 and up, includes the best of everything Epcot has to offer plus the added bonus of delectable fare from Food and Wine Festival. The day begins in the VIP Lounge at the Festival Center, followed by “expedited” admission to Soarin’, Test Track, Spaceship Earth, and The Seas with Nemo & Friends. A six-course tapas style lunch with accompanying adult beverages is provided. Guest are then treated to a backstage tour of Living with the Land, followed by another round of tasty treats from the Food and Wine Festival. The day ends with VIP seating for the Eat to the Beat Concert Series and Illuminations. The cost is $399 per person, and requires separate admission to Epcot.

Did it last year. It was just okay. It was nice to have a table possibly available, but needed umbrellas because most of the reserved spots were in the sun. The CMs were all helpful. The party night was just ok. They only had a few of the areas open and we didn't know which ones they would be so we had already tried most of the foods from those areas so no great deal there. There would have to be major improvements for us to do it again.

Sorry just saw it said tour. We just did the VIP thing they did last yea. Forgot what they called it.

Thanks, Izzy. I was actually interested in the VIP plan you describe, too, so your post is much appreciated.

That's the one, Dan. Thanks for digging up the description, which I should have done at the outset to avoid confusion among the bajillion different things Disney refers to as "VIP."
