Welcome To Disneyland Resort Tour

I love Disneyland but they need to get Anaheim to keep the bums away from the resort bus pickup locations. Two of the more memorable incident
1) my wife 68 years old was called white trash because she refused to give them money.
2) one morning there was blood all over the bench at the bus stop.
These folks are living at these stops. This tells me that they harass enough patrons to make money or they would not be there.

This is such a great way to spend time at the park, if you’re a fan of Disneyland, and eager to hear a bit more about the history.
We were fortunate enough to have only one other couple on tour with us, so it felt really intimate. You usually only get groups this size if you’re paying for the VIP tour!
Our guide was amazing. She was engaging, full of information, and totally agreeable to answering all my silly questions about the buildings, the rides, the windows, and the stories I’d heard, but never verified. She took us through the different lands, regaling us with insider information about the things that we were passing, and then tried to have us cut the line at Pirates (all part of the tour, I assure you.)
She didn’t even blink an eye when the couple that we were on tour with begged her to not take them on the ride. The girl was pregnant, and they were worried about the drops. Our guide tried to ease their fears — the drops really aren’t that bad — but they were adamant, so she asked us if we’d mind. Of course not! We didn’t want to break the tour up, and we certainly didn’t want the other couple to be on a ride that made them uncomfortable!
She took it all in stride, and arranged for us to get non-​assigned Fast Passes, to make up for us missing out on Pirates. Then, she continued the tour, and arranged for us to have VIP seating at the Aladdin show in DCA.
I loved that this tour took us through both parks. She had some good tips for the rides at DCA, and pointed out some things for us to think about.
Overall, this was one of the great tours that DLR offers. I’d pay to do this tour again in a heartbeat! The only awkward thing about the tour was that they made lunch reservations for us at the Storyteller Café after the tour ended, and we ended up dining with a couple that we’d only just met. Not terrible, by any means, but a little warning that you’d be dining with strangers would have been nice.
