On our upcoming trip we are going on the Walt Disney: Marceline to Magic Kingdom Tour! We haven't don't this tour before and I'm very excited to do it! I understand from the CM that it's a more in-depth look at Walt Disney with an emphasis on bringing the 64 Worlds Fair attractions to Disneyland. I am wondering has anyone been on this tour yet?? I will be giving a detailed report on this with pictures! We will be in MK at 8am, so the picture taking will be spectacular! This is what the WDW website says:

A 3-hour look at how key events in Walt Disney’s life inspired Magic Kingdom park and the beloved attractions within it.
A Magical Trip Through Time
On this walking tour, discover some of the secrets behind the magic.
Your knowledgeable guide will share many little-known facts about Walt as well as the design and operation of several classic attractions. You'll also get to enter Magic Kingdom park before it opens to the general public and enjoy first-rate photo ops along Main Street, USA.
Learn about attractions spawned from Walt's participation in the 1964 World's Fair.
This insider’s look at the history of Magic Kingdom park is perfect for the avid Disney fan and offers a lighter alternative to the more in-depth Keys to the Kingdom tour.
Discover the Man Behind the Mouse
Fond memories of Marceline, Missouri, where Walt’s family moved when he was 4, led him to create the iconic glimpse of Americana known as Main Street, U.S.A.
This small railroad town inspired a lifelong fascination for Walt, and though the Disneys would live there only 4 years, this idyllic boyhood backdrop was never forgotten. By the time Walt had his own family, it fueled his vision of Disneyland as a place to spend quality time with his daughters.

It looks like a really interesting tour! I'm especially interested in the '64 World's Fair information. I hope you have a good tour guide. The last tour we took at WDW, the UnDiscovered Future World tour, wasn't as good as I hoped as the tour guide seemed a little disinterested in what he was showing us unfortunately, and most of the information was not anything new and extraordinary if you had any real interest in the park already :(
