| Magic Kingdom - Key's to the Kingdom Has anyone been on one of the backstage tours. We decided that we would go on one this year - we're looking at "Keys to the Kingdom". I'm interested in knowing how it turned out. Was it worth the money? Any input would be greatly appreciated. Judy next trip - WDW August 2008  |

| Hey - I just did the Keys to the Kingdom tour a few weeks ago and really enjoyed it. The guide gives you plenty of history and points out things you might never notice otherwise. And of course you do get to see behind the scenes, which is fun and interesting. They also give you an ear piece so you can hear the guide quite easily as he speaks into his microphone. During the tour, we went on two rides, avoiding the lines all together. I would certainly recommend this tour. It's time consuming and a lot of walking, though, so just be prepared. And by the way, lunch is at the Columbia Harbor House - really good sandwiches!! Enjoy!

| My mom did "Keys to the Kingdom" and loved it. The only suggestion she made is to try for the earlies time slot they have. She was in the first tour of the day and loved that she could hear the guide without using the headsets. Later on she did need them but to begin with it was nice not to. |

| I love the enthusiasm of the tour guides at Disney parks! KTTK was wonderful and a tour I'd like to do again someday. I had been reading books on how they Imagineered the parks (a hobby of mine for years), so the extra insight from the tour guide was really interesting. The behind-the-scenes stuff was a unique experience and I liked how they used visual breaks to disguise it from the view of guests -- and how carefully they protect the illusions in the parks. Lunch with the tour guide (and his colleague) was also fun and informative, plus I enjoyed interacting with the other guests. The food at the Columbia Harbor House was delicious. Good time! Eileen
