Hiya, Carlene! Welcome to planDisney!
There are so many ways to add an extra sprinkle of pixie dust to an already-magical vacation, but my favorite way is to reserve a
special event or tour! These are all great ways to get a behind-the-scenes look at some favorite spaces in the parks, learn interesting and little-known facts, and notice important details that are unique to each tour. Let's talk about some of the similarities and differences!
Carlene, it sounds like you were able to experience the
“Walk in Walt’s Disneyland Footsteps” Guided Tour at Disneyland Park! This tour allowed Guests to understand the special moments that made The Happiest Place on Earth grow from its earliest concepts to its current iteration. This focuses primarily on Walt – from his upbringing to his personal experiences to his dreams for the future. I'm so happy you were able to have this very special three-hour experience!
In contrast,
Disney's Keys to the Kingdom Tour is a five-hour experience that takes place in
Magic Kingdom Park at Walt Disney World Resort. This tour focuses on Magic Kingdom Park, itself! Guests will be able to get an inside look at some classic attractions, explore secret locations that keep the park operating smoothly, and discover new facts and special details that make Magic Kingdom Park a beloved place for Guests to visit.
If you're looking for more tours and special experiences, I would highly recommend
Walt's Main Street Story Tour at Disneyland Park if you're visiting Disneyland Resort, as well as
Behind the Seeds at EPCOT when you're traveling to Walt Disney World Resort. In my experience, each tour and special event makes me feel even more connected to the magic I feel every time I step into the parks. There's nothing better than that!
If you have any other questions, please visit us again. You've got a friend in me!
