Has anyone tried these tours? Seas Aqua Tour or Dolphins in Depth Tour. Sounds fun!! Is it worth the time and money? I shouldn't say money, thats not the real issue but you could spend up to $600.00 for a family of four on one tour. If it's worth it I may do both. Suggestions?

Thanks,
MJD

I guess it would be safe to say no one went to these tours. Thirty looks and no response. Enough said, I will try a different tour.

I thoroughly recommend the 7-hour Backstage Magic tour. It's the most expensive of the tours Disney offers but is an unforgettable experience if you're a Disneyphile.

DW and I took the Backstage Magic Tour last January (it was our Christmas gift to each other) and thought it was well worth the expense. Stops along the way included backstage looks at how the American Adventure, Body Wars and Catastrophe Canyon operate, a close-up look at some of the parade floats so you can see how the vehicles are powered and where the drivers sit, a visit to costuming, and a tour of the WED engineering and construction buildings. We also were taken into the utilidors, the tunnel system under the Magic Kingdom.

Our tour also included lunch at Mama Melrose's in MGM. The back area of the restaurant was reserved for the tour and a delicious family style meal was served.

At the end of the tour, participants are given a special Backstage Magic pin, which I use as my Disney Central avatar.

Didn't Matto do one of those? Or was that divequest?

:) Haven't done either one but are planning Divequest and Dolphin for our upcoming trip. I found reviews at Deb's unofficial web site. I'll check the addy and post in a minute.
