Keys To The Magic Kingdom

[Guest]

Well this is a tour that will enlighten you to the walt disney magic kingdom park.

Having found this on the DIBB earlier, i thought i would share the experience our group had recently & update you on what is now included.

well we went to a guest relations office ... in this instance the EPCOT guest relations. Very helpfull and helped us throught to getting hold of a cast member that could deal with our query. We booked when we were offered a tour the next day !

Well we met Kristen at the town hall at the magic kingdom guest relations, and we all set off on a main street tour and a brief history tour of the walt empire & how it was put together. with our earpiece sets and special passes, you got the sense that people were looking at you ! " Oh yes ... we are VIP's".
Well a tour of the back stage areas first & its amazing on really how BIG it really is.
This followed onto us going into some rides via a system better than fast pass... yup thats right its an instant pass ! the safri ride & haunted house... and short cut stright onto a ride that had a 90 minute wait ! .
Well a lunch courtesy of disney upstairs with outher cast members & of course asking as many questions as you liked ! .
We were presented with special tie pins with keys to the magic kingdom ' a very nice touch' on a unique presentation card.
This followed a tour of the utilidoors and some special walt disney memorbilia... not found anywhere else on the site.
All in All this tour is well worth the money and i must admit more geared to the adult, that has already done the park ... but wants more of how its done & run.

well worth it & well recomended

We've recently had this tour and while we can't remember the price they do offer AP discount... plus you get lunch included so the price is rather good.

One of my complaints from the tour in Disney Paris is you can't always hear the cast member but the headset solves this problem. Simply put, your tour guide has a mic attached to a radio and you each get a receiver with a headphone to pop in your ear. As you walk along he can point things out and talk about certain rides as you pass certain points... and you don't have to worry about how far away from him you are!

The tour is rather long and with the heat and the walking it can get to you, certain back stage areas have little shade. I wont spoil the tour (PM us if you want any more details) but you get a good history of the park, hear some interesting stories, see the back stage areas, go underground and see characters dressed up without the head LOL!

The age limit I think has something to do with keeping the tour group moving and (how to put this kindly) not to spoil it for the group to have some annoying kid playing up! Either way, other than seeing woody and jessie without the head, the tour doesn't spoil any of the magic AND if anything adds more!

We highly rate this trip, a must do! We did get a little tired towards the end of the tour but with the heat and walking it is expected.

[I have done this tour myself and really enjoyed it. One of my friends sometimes is the tour guide - her name is Carol.]

[Mr Darwen Bird]

We loved it. I'd highly recommend it to anyone but especially to those who have been a few times and are looking for a different slant on the park.

I did the tour last year and loved it. I've booked to go again this year, felt that with differant people on the tour and differant guide i would learn other stuff and with Lunch included it made it great value!

[Guest]

We did this tour today and it was excellent! Very good value for money considering the lunch alone is about $10. It lasted for nearly 5 and a half hours! Would recommend it to any Disney fan! Our guide Kate was brill!
