Hi Debra, and welcome to planDisney!
Behind the Seeds is such a cool way to get a closer look at the greenhouses you see in
Living with the Land. I’ve done it twice and learned something new each time! So, let’s chat about how you can snag a reservation.
Enchanting Extras, like Behind the Seeds, can
typically be booked starting at 6:00 a.m. Eastern Time, 60 days in advance.
Disney Resort hotel guests can make reservations 60 days before check-in for their entire stay (up to a 10-night stay). This can be helpful for booking popular experiences like going behind the scenes on the
Up Close with Rhinos tour or enjoying a
Fireworks Cruise. That said, I’ve seen guests say they were sometimes able to book royal makeovers at
Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutique as early as midnight. So if Behind the Seeds is a must-do, you might want to check before 6:00 a.m. just in case!
I also wanted to share exciting news about Behind the Seeds for your visit in December. During the
EPCOT International Festival of the Holidays, there’s a special nighttime version of Behind the Seeds in addition to the usual daytime tour. I’m hoping to book
Glimmering Greenhouses after reservations open on October 9th for my visit later this year. Being inside the hydroponic greenhouses will be extra magical with the glowing lights at night! And you’ll also learn about the crops behind traditional holiday food and flavors.
As we get closer to the holidays, keep an eye on
Disney Parks Blog for more details on seasonal happenings and the EPCOT International Festival of the Holidays foodie guide. In the meantime, you can look at
last year’s foodie guide to start getting excited!
I hope you get to experience the Behind the Seeds tour during your visit in December. And if you have any other questions, you’re always welcome at planDisney!
