What is a Disney VIP Tour?

A Disney VIP tour is a personalized, guided experience. This “magical extra” allows guests to explore the parks with the expertise of a knowledgeable guide. The tours provide a variety of exclusive benefits. Ultimately, VIP tours enhance your visit and ensure you make the most of your time at the parks.

Key Features of VIP Tours

Personalized Itinerary

At both Disney World and Disneyland, one of the most appealing aspects of a VIP tour is the custom itinerary. Your guide will tailor the day’s activities based on your preferences. These tours prioritize your wants and “must-do” attractions and experiences.
