any discounts on behind the scenes tours?

I remember a while back I heard that there was a discount on behind the scenes tours-either for disney visa holders, or AAA members or something. Does anyone know any details about this, or if any discounts are still valid and/or available? We are planning to do the keys to the kingdom tour, and would love to save a few $$ if possible. Thanks!

I know there are discounnts with the Disney Visa.
We did the family magic tour, and they took off the discount when we booked over the phone.

AAA, Disney Vacation Club members, and I think annual pass holders. Generally 10%, 15% DVC.

Did it last year. Worth the time if you've got a day to spare.

Re: any discounts on behind the scenes tours?

Thanks very much everyone. I'll use the aaa discount, after seeing if disney visa is better-I don't have DVC or APs, so, I'll have to see what's available.

Re: any discounts on behind the scenes tours?

We're thinking about doing the same tour on our next trip. I think we get a discount as DVC members, but then we also have to use a day on our park hoppers also because theme park admission isn't included with the price of the tour.

You'll have to let us know how you like the tour. Only 35 Days? I'm jealous

Re: any discounts on behind the scenes tours?

I'll let you know what we think of the tour...I've heard some great reviews, but I've also heard a couple not-so-great ones. I think part of it must depend on who you get as a tour guide. I'll keep you all posted!
