Hi, there!
Welcome to the Disney Parks Moms Panel, Jason. We're glad you stopped by!
I'm so pleased to hear you're planning another visit to the
Walt Disney World Resort. I'll be visiting next summer too, and I'm already counting down the days (it's a few too many)!
The
Backstage Magic Tour really
is a must-do for any Disney fan. This special offering from the
Enchanting Extras Collection is truly one-of-a-kind! I had the amazing opportunity to experience the Backstage Magic Tour last fall, and it made for lots of magical memories. I don't want to give away any spoilers, but I learned so many incredible facts about the Walt Disney World Resort! To answer your question, reservations for the Backstage Magic Tour are usually available about 6-months in advance. You should expect to see availability for your July trip appear in mid-January. The tour is currently offered Monday thru Friday of most weeks, but that schedule is subject to change between now and the time of your visit. You certainly won't want to miss out on this Unique Access Tour, so my best advice is to be prepared to call for reservations 180-days prior to your check-in date. Reservations for the Backstage Magic Tour can be made by calling (407) WDW-TOUR or (407) 939-8687.
Before you book the Backstage Magic Tour, be sure to review the "Know Before You Go" notes on the event page. As someone who only ever packs sandals for a Disney vacation, I had to be mindful to pack sneakers for my visit last fall so that I would be permitted to experience the tour!
I hope this was helpful, Jason. Please visit us again soon with any new questions you may have!
