Backstage Tour Information
The Adventures by Disney Backstage Tour is a 7-hour tour that is expertly led by knowledgeable Adventure Guides. The tour is an immersive experience that allows guests to witness first-hand the magic and hard work that occurs behind-the-scenes at the theme parks. Highlights of this tour include:
EPCOT: Discover the inner workings of The American Adventure attraction as your Adventure Guides reveal the engineering feats and attention to detail behind the inspiring Audio-Animatronics stage show.
Creative Costuming: Have you ever wondered how the character, show, and parade costumes are designed? Observe the talented professionals that design these for the Walt Disney World Resort performers!
Central Shops: Explore the facility where all of your favorite attractions, including Audio-Animatronics, ride vehicles, and elaborate stage sets are developed and maintained by engineers, mechanics, and artisans. Be amazed by the tiniest of details!
Magic Kingdom: Become immersed in the story that started with Walt himself on Main Street, U.S.A. Guests will have the opportunity to navigate the “utilidor” tunnels which are the network of underground passageways constructed beneath the theme park. These allow Disney Cast Members and delivery vehicles to move around undetected.
If your tour departs prior to June 1, 2019, instead of the new activities at Disney’s Animal Kingdom Park and lunch at Tiffins, guests will eat lunch at Whispering Canyon Café located at Disney’s Wilderness Lodge. Guests will also get to visit Textile Services which is an experience like no other – it is one of the world’s largest laundry facilities!
