We are still riding the high of the amazing VIP Tour at Walt Disney World that some of our agents got to experience earlier this month! Here are our top 5 reasons why a VIP Tour could be worth it for your next trip:
5. Rides and Attractions! Our guide recommended all of the best places to sit for each ride we visited (back rows of Big Thunder Mountain, anyone?) and she requested them for us from the ride attendants!
We began our tour by giving her our list of “must-do” attractions, and she organized them in the best order possible to maximize our time and our FUN! She also added in a few more attractions when convenient. We visited 21 attractions* in 3 parks during our tour!
*(19, but we rode 2 of them twice!)
4. Poppins-Level Preparedness! Kelly, our own personal Mary Poppins, was prepared for EVERYTHING. Her little bag had ponchos and cooling towels! Endless cold water on a million-degree July day! And she knew the best spots to view/ride/everything!
She kept us entertained, hydrated, and comfortable for a full 6 hours. She carried all of our bags, ears, etc., while we rode all 21 rides on our list!
3. Treats! In addition to bottled water, our sweet guide had treats! At Magic Kingdom, we had Mickey bars, Mickey ice cream sandwiches, and some sharable popcorns and Mickey pretzels! At Epcot, she picked up Starbucks while we rode Guardians! We were also greeted at each park change with a box of packaged snacks that we could choose from if we were hungry.
Lots of folks skip or delay meals during VIP tours (because they don’t want to take away from park-touring time), so these snacks were quite welcome!
2. Shortcuts, Secrets & Smarts! VIP guides know the quickest ways from park to park, and the quickest paths within the parks!
Kelly drove us “backstage” between Hollywood Studios, Epcot, and Magic Kingdom (no photos allowed!) to save time, AND she took us through several “secret” entrances reserved for VIPs on rides like Space Mountain, Buzz Lightyear's Space Ranger Spin, and Pirates of the Caribbean!
Finally, she had DEEP Disney knowledge and thrilled us with hidden Mickeys, fun facts and park history! It's pretty hard to tell any of us something we haven't heard before about Walt Disney World, but Kelly did just that, multiple times!
1.VIP = Very Individualized Plan. Your tour guide will work with you to make the very best plan for YOUR group! Every group is different, so every tour is different. VIP guides want you to have an amazing time, and they go out of their way to make it happen, building a comprehensive plan around YOU and your touring group.
It’s more than just hopping into the Lightning Lanes (though that is pretty great!)--it's also the attention, care, and knowledge that VIP guides put into every tour. Our guide not only shared our deep love of Disney parks and history, she actually made it even stronger!
