Has anyone done the Keys to the Kingdom tour?

We are visiting the world in September for my birthday and I would love to do something different. I have never done a tour. Is this a good one? It takes half a day so I want to be sure its worth the time. It will just be myself and DH on this trip.

I did it about a month ago and enjoyed it. You get to see some behind the scenes areas, and you stop for lunch at Columbia Harbour House (great sandwich, I thought). You also get a headpiece so that you can hear the tour guide easily. It was fun and interesting - worth the time and $if you don't mind tying up a chunk of your day.

Love this tour!

If you do a search on "keys to the kingdom" (there's a link to the search function at the top of every page), you could find threads about this fabulous tour.

If you decide to go for it, I hope you have a blast!

I went on this tour with my Mom while my husband and Dad were playing golf and we loved it! It is definitely worth the time and I think its a steal at that price for that amount of time and it includes lunch! Let us know what you think if you decide to take the tour!

I've also done the Segway tour that goes through the Epcot countries which is more expensive but was SO MUCH FUN!!!

I did it with my Dad about 7 yrs ago, when I turned 16 (you have to be 16 because of stuff you might "see" underground) then my mom and brother did it about 4 yrs later when he turned 16. Everyone LOVED it...For Disney fanatics like us, it was a great way to see Disney a little bit different. It was defintely worth the half day and money.
