Split Disney VIP Dec 24-30???

[twodogs]

Having done several VIP tours, I think sharing with strangers would be difficult. We all move at different paces and have different priorities for a day that costs that much. We always have specific rides we want to do and if others wanted to do rides we didn’t love, we would feel we were wasting our VIP time. Granted it would be less expensive than when we are just 6 people booking the entire guide, but still would be expensive, even when split with one or two other families and I wouldn’t want to waste any time. jMhO. Hope you find like minded folks to share it with.

If I am reading this right, you would be a party of 7. For VIP tours, everyone counts, not just those 3 and older.

This is a really old thread. OP would have traveled awhile ago.

The original post was in April 2018 asking about a VIP tour for December. It's still 2018, and it's not December yet.

Did you do the VIP? Is it worth the money? We are going at Christmas and it seems like a good deal to me. We did receive a reply from Disney listing the rides and attractions included, PLUS VIP to the parades. Fortunately, the list includes all the rides that we want (we are all adults). Any feedback is appreciated. It seems worth it to me to be ushered around at that time of year.

For anyone interested, this is what is included:

The VIP Tour is a great way to experience the theme parks; being on a VIP Tour it gives you priority access to 30 plus attractions! This means you will have unlimited access to all of our Fastpass Attractions plus priority access to about 15 additional attractions. Not only do we offer attraction access, but we also can make any reserved viewing experiences for our popular shows and parades in a special reserved viewing section. It doesn’t end there, our Tour Guides will also have access to character meet and greets with Mickey at his house in Toontown, the Princesses at Fantasy Faire, and Anna & Elsa from Arrendale. Disney PhotoPass – Get unlimited Disney PhotoPass downloads for the day—and share these memories with family and friends! You’ll even be able to access photos taken on select attractions and during select Character dining experiences. Magic Shots are also included

The Follow Attractions offer FASTPASS Access:

A couple things to be aware of. 1. VIP tours allow for 2 cars to be parked (valet) at the Grand. 2. The rides on the above list can change. For example, Peter Pan and Alice are now on the list, and I believe Pinocchio's is removed.

The OP joined the board, made 2 posts — and nothing since.

I was told specifically not to tip when I made our reservation for June. They said they are well compensated and they are restricting the rules on allowing the guide CMs to accept tips. Even after the ask three times rule. I talked about buying them snacks or a meal, they said that was fine, just no money to exchange hands with a guide anymore.

when i did the VIP tour last year, i also asked in advanced about tipping and were told it's up to our own discretion, we tipped and it was very much appreciated by the CM.
