The Yuletide Fantasy Tour takes you backstage where you will learn all about the logistics involved in turning Walt Disney World into a winter wonderland. The tour (as most all the tours now) are run by Adventures by Disney. Deb Wills previewed the tour, which has been reimagined for the 2018 holiday season.

Backstage Magic Tour
Posted onYears, and I do mean years ago, I took the Backstage Magic Tour of Walt Disney World. We got to do some really cool things and I always remembered how much fun it was. The tour took us to Epcot, Magic Kingdom (no Animal Kingdom then), the Disney MGM Studios and behind the scenes at several Cast Member locations. Deb recently took the tour again and shares her experience.
Epcot's International Food and Wine Festival is in full swing and at least one of the pavilions is offering new food and beverage items for you to enjoy -- Italy! In addition to the traditional Food and Wine Festival kiosk on the World Showcase promenade, the Via Napoli Donkey Cart and the Pizza Window have new items for you to try.
Walt Disney World shared some details for the upcoming holiday season at a recent media preview. Here are the highlights, including a video of just merchandise!
Today I attended a preview of the new Disney Vacation Club Member Lounge. This lounge is in the Imagination Pavilion in Epcot at Walt Disney World and can be accessed through the pavilion's merchandise store.

The lounge opens on June 6, 2016. It will remain open daily through the 25th Anniversary Celebration from 10:00am to 6:00pm. Disney Vacation Club Members will need their membership card as well as ID. A Cast Member will be at the bottom of the stairs (there is also an elevator) to check in you and your party. Read more....
Tutto Italia's Special 3 Course Summer Lunch has debuted and is available until August 31. The lunch includes one appetizer, one main course, one dessert and a soft drink (Coke, Diet Coke, Sprite, ginger ale, iced tea).
New this year at Epcot's International Food and Wine Festival is a dining experience entitled: French Family Meal Traditions, held in Monsieur Paul (France Epcot). This has replaced the long standing French Regional Lunch.
Ever wonder if the Princess Character Meal at Akershus Royal Banquet Hall is worth the $40++ it costs? Deb Koma and myself review the popular princess meal in this episode.
We tell you everything you need to know from the food, to the princesses to the uniqueness of this experience.
