Walt Disney Studios Tour in Burbank - Worth it?

[southlake]

Saw this as one of the top rewards on Disney Movie Rewards, and it looks like it's only available to D23 members or part of a package through Adventures by Disney. Has anyone done it? Is it worth saving up codes for? What is it like?

TIA!

It was absolutely worth it to us. We had already had an informal tour once before, thanks to a friend in Feature Animation. But the escorted tour gave us more history and more access to special areas, like the archives. The tours are different each time depending on filming schedules, so one group may see a certain set or soundstage, but a group on another date will see something different. There is a lot of walking involved, although they can accommodate mobility issues to a certain extent. This tour is definitely aimed at the Disney history fans. Unlike the studio tours at USH or WB, this one is much more low key. We're hoping to do another tour in the future.

I have been to the Studios during an Adventures by Disney Trip. It was an amazing place with amazing stories. Totally worth it.
