0:35 Yay - that was me honking. So happy to see you from my monorail. I'm glad Keys to the Kingdom is back, it is such an amazing tour! Seeing you made my day.
I was going to make a separate comment saying that this skipper was awesome. But… now that you are here… Great job! I hope you can be my family’s skipper someday. Jungle Cruise is my husband and sons favorite ride.
Hi Nathan, Don't hesitate to go on the tour again! I've been on the tour twice and the guides added their own knowledge to the required script. One guide added technical and architectural knowledge and the next guide gave us more show knowledge. There are many great backstage tours! Thanks for keeping us informed.
My wife and I did this tour many years a go and were literally in tears at the end when our guide talked about the Partners statue and the one of Minnie and Roy. Tearing up now just remembering! The tour is Well worth the price!
I did the Keys to the Kingdom tour about 20 years ago. Sounds like they mostly do the same stops and the servants entrance at the Haunted Mansion. Our Utilidoors tour was more circular, showed where all the costumes are made and kept, the ride electronics and computer systems. Even an empty Mickey costume.
My friends and I took the Backstage Magic tour several years ago. It was 7 hours and started in Epcot and ended in the Magic Kingdom. We were down in the Utilidoors as well. I think we sacred poor Snow White who was not expecting us to be there. If that tour is still available you should check it out. You would love it!
I’m a former international cast member and have worked at Magic Kingdom- Tomorrowland, so I’ve seen a lot of the backstage areas. This was 20 years ago and I would definitely do this tour to see everything again. It’s totally worth it! Thanks so much for all your videos! Your vibe is contagious! 😀😀😀
We took the same tour many years ago and it still is one of our most memorable Disney experiences. The cool thing is no two tours are alike and we learned some different stuff.
Nate, I love that you get so much joy from learning and exploring. I hope one day you do work for Disney and continue to share your enthusiasm with guests. Maybe one day you will be conducting a Keys to the Kingdom Tour!
I loved doing the Keys to the Kingdom tour back in December of 2018. My tour was slightly different because it was pouring rain most of the time. A tornado warning actually went out while we were in the utilidor allowing us to spend additional time down there. This was some of the best money ever spent at Disney 😀. Highly recommend.
Great video Nate. When my family did this tour, back 2018, it was simple to let them know at morning checkin, that two people were vegan, and at lunch time, there were special vegan lunches awaiting them besides everything else prepared for the tour. Totally simple and easily accommodated.
Thanks Nate for giving guests an overview of the Keys to the Kingdom Tour. I took a tour years ago that took us to the Magic Kingdom, Epcot behind the scenes and Hollywood Studios. It took all day and we had lunch in M.K. and a dinner at Mama Melroses , family style. They did not give us those great keys pins though. However, we went to all the M.K. backstage places that you were taken to and we were driven to each park in special air conditioned tour buses that had water and light snacks for all. In Epcot we went behind the scenes in a few places incl. under American Adventure. I would do it again in a heartbeat. So much great information .
My daughter and I took the keys to the kingdom tour in 2019. It was wonderful. I was in the Spring 1991 Walt Disney world college program, I was in Magic Kingdom custodial. I had not been in the tunnel since 1991 but now it is better lighting, cleaner, repainted, and more signage.
We would love this tour. We got to see behind Main Street once. One of my kids got sick (not serious) and needed to go to a local health clinic. A Disney cast member took us to the clinic, starting by driving right through the Main Street back stage area. The cast member was fantastic. It was kind of a private tour of the backstage areas that we passed on the way to the clinic.
This is such an awesome vlog, Nate!! My husband and I did this tour a few years back, and it was so amazing!! We got to eat at the Columbia Harbor House. So glad you got to go on the tour and enjoyed it so much! I love that you brought us along and took time to retrace your steps and give us information that you learned - you’re such a great tour guide! 😊
Disney owes you a commission, Nate! After I watched your video I booked a short 4 night solo trip and will be flying in from Texas to go on the tour myself! I can't wait!!! Thank you for the video- it was super fun and your excitement was contagious!
I’ve done the Keys tour twice and each time was special, I found out things the 2nd time around we hadn’t heard yet. I would love to do it now again and see 4-5 years later what they’ve added to it. Great video, I’m a new viewer and really enjoying all your great Disney content!
We did that as soon as my youngest was 16. Summer of 2006! We loved it so much!!! We loved the utilidoors and backstage the best! Our lunch was upstairs at Columbia Harbor House.
This was great! The servants’ quarters were so cool! The “vanity” is a coat tree. It has hooks for coats and hats. The rings on the sides hold umbrellas and walking sticks. A grand home might have a guest book. Fun how they use a funeral guestbook here 😄
Well Nate,this is my first time to post a comment.. I usually click thumbs up, and share ,with my daughter, Maureen ,to watch you! But bumping into you at Magic Kingdom made our vacation so special!
My kid came down for a high school chorus competition and they took them in the utilidor and they popped up in Starlight Ray's where Sonny Eclipse is and let them sing there for family. Unexpected Disney moment. I need to do that tour!
When I was a kid, my parents sent my sister and I on a tour that took us down to the utilidors...still one of the coolest things and best memories at Disney. Would love to go back now as an adult again. Might have to book this tour for my next trip to see these back stage areas again. Thanks for describing the experience so well for us!
Back when I worked for the mouse in the 90s, above the Emporium side of Main street where the offices for supervisors and managers. I was always being called up there because my hair was too long. On the other side of main street, above the Confectioner, were the security offices. This is where all the undercover security worked, many who were former detectives. You only get to see this part of Disney if you did something really wrong. I was a union steward so I was called up there to sit with employees accused of doing something wrong. Not a pleasant experience. Behind Small World is the main entrance to tunnel. Cast members are brought there by bus and then go to wardrobe for clean costumes. They also had a very nice cafeteria near entrance to tunnel. I learned some new things from your video.
My husband and I did this tour in 2000,on the 15th anniversary of our first trip to Disney (which was 1985, when we had started dating. ❤️) We loved it!
That is so amazing Nate. I've never heard of this tour before. Sounds like a great time, and a very reasonable price too, considering it's Disney. Lol. I'll be coming to WDW in May, and I think I need to add this to my "to do list! Thanks so much for all you do! Have a Satisfactual day! 🐰🐻🦊
Yes , the only way I found about it was from a Vlog whe I was doing research for my trip in 2019. It will blow your mine with facts, places ,backstage and the utilidoors
I am so happy to see Nates video vlogs and he always keeps us up to date and aprised on the latest things and adventures that we all can explore, see and do at the Disney World parks. Great job as usual and your phrase i love, Until nexttime my friends, just for now,..... Bye!😎⭐👌🥂
I'm a former Cast Member and my friend does the keys to the kingdom tours. She was celebrating yesterday that it's officially back and made me wonder if she was your tour guide. That would have been neat!
My daughter and I did the tour a few years ago. Our meal was at Columbia Harbor House though. The tour was so awesome. We saw some characters backstage also with parts of costumes off. We also saw the parade vehicles, some old Spectral Magic floats that had been retired. We loved all the stories and still remember a lot of the little facts. We had a shorter trek downstairs and entered from the back of the Emporium. We did another tour a couple years later- Marcelline to Main street and had Haunted Mansion special access. All wonderful.
I did this tour in 2001 just 2 days before the 9/11 attacks. It blew my mind!! Amazing to see the utilidors and parade floats! I still have my name badge and pin. It's something I will never forget.
Been backstage three times for very different reasons. First time was NYE and they opened up the shortcut between front of Main Street and Tomorrowland to alleviate crowds. Second time my mom's personal scooter died at the back of Tomorrowland and CMs arranged a minivan to pick us up and return us to our on-site hotel. Last time was evacuated from the tall rise on Splash Mountain and we exited out the back way of that ride to Frontierland.
My grandpa was Roy Davis! I found out after digging... wondering if Radiator springs racers is themed after Sedona,AZ. I found out Walt used to escape to his home in Sedona as often as possible 😉💖 and yasssss Radiator springs was based off of route 66 in my native state Arizona 😃
Did this in 2019. Someone told me “Don’t do the tour, it will ruin the Magic”. Just the opposite, it made me appreciate the Magic. I learned so much on that tour.
Totally agree. I also did that your in 2019. I think it’s a must do for any Disney fan. It was so fun noticing little nuances after the tour that I never noticed prior.
Did they talk about their garbage system in the park? I was blown away when I learned about it when we did the tour and where all the garbage is collected behind a certain attraction.
BEST suggestion EVER, if people can spare the 5 hours from their schedule. Our tour guides family was close friends of Walt, her Dad was an imagineer and she had some amazing stories about Walt. Myself and two other ladies teared up several times when she spoke of the special bond Roy and Walt shared. Can't Thank You enough for doing this and sharing your experience first. WELL worth the money and pixie dust lessons. Do you ever post where you'll be in advance if your little fans wanted to purposely run into you and say Hi and Thank you? Keep spreading the magic. ❤️
Hi Nate, my husband and I had done the Keys to the Kingdom and also Backstage Magic tours years ago and then brought our friend on Backstage Magic. The Utilidors are amazing. The first time we took the tour was prior to 9-11 so we were able to see things that is no longer allowed . So glad you enjoyed the tour, check out Backstage Magic. The first time we took it we had lunch at Mama Melrose. The second time lunch was at Whispering Canyon
My brother in law did that tour a few years ago, he loved it. He just wished there were a few other things they'd show, but the utilidors and the vacuum system were the best parts for him. He's a repairman where we work and he loves this sort of thing.
I love seeing your love and enthusiasm. I don't care if you're talking about Disney or trains or rocks. I am just happy to see people happy. Keep doing what you're doing and I wish you the best!
I went on this tour a few years ago. It was a big thrill to go under into the utilidors. It’s definitely something special. By the way, my son and I chatted with you a few weeks ago at the Creations Shop. (You complimented me on the Disneyland Paris scarf that I was wearing.) Sadly, we realized after we walked away that we should have asked to take a selfie with you!! Next time.😀
I did the tour over ten years ago and is still one of the best memories I have. We went down through a different door and at at a different restaurant for lunch. I still have my key. Love the video! Thanks so much! Makes me really want to do it again.
My husband and I have gone on several behind-the-scenes tours (Epcot, Animal Kingdom, Magic Kingdom, and even the warehouses) and loved every one of them. Glad you had a very good experience.
I definitely need to do this tour!!!! I have always wanted to go in the underground tunnels. So worth the cost of the tour. Thank you for sharing Nate, I love it!!!
Nate, not sure if you remember but we met you shortly after you finished the keys tour. You were just outside the main gate making a call maybe. My wife, son, and I talked with you a few minutes, got a picture with you, then walked in. I am not a fan of many, but I do enjoy watching your videos. They were very helpful in getting us prepped for Disney World. Just wanted to say thanks for doing what you do and we feel almost like we're there when watching your videos. Cheers!
The last time I was in the utilidor was when I was around 4 yrs old and went with my Dad to pick up his check back in 1971. I didn’t appreciate how rare that was back then like I do now. I really want to do this tour so I can see it as an adult.
I just got to watch this - we were traveling to WDW on the 6th and went to Epcot on the 7th. We had a great trip and stayed at Contemporary... that back way into Haunted Mansion is how they used to let us in with the DAS pass.
Nate, we finally got a chance to meet you on the tour, we were the folks from Rochester NY. Thank you for being so kind to everyone that recognized you! You never seemed bothered at all and like I told you, thank you, as we've all learned so much from you!! Now that we're back in snow country we can still be at Disney through your eyes! Keep rockin' the awesome videos my friend!!
I took the tour right before Covid. I loved it., I think it’s worth it. I love WDW, I’ve been lucky to visit many times! I hope to visit again before 50th celebration ends 🎈
I did tour in 2018. It was amazing. I did see something that I can't un see. In the utilidors, I saw Cinderella in a tee shirt and sweat pants. I loved the fact that you recreated the tour as much as you could.
This was fantastic Nate!! I hope to do the tour one day!! I absolutely love the history and stories behind Disney World and especially Magic Kingdom. Thank you so much for sharing!!😊
We did this in 2019, it was an amazing day and well worth the money. Got to see Magic Kingdom in a totally different way. Hope to do it again when we come over in September
Thank you Nate, for such an interesting and informative video. I will watch this video a couple of more times. I share the same excitement and passion for Walt Disney World as you do. Excellent job!
Nate Keys to the Kingdom is a awesome tour and for the money a great value. Another tour that is very reasonable is the Behind the Seeds at The Land. The Marceline to Magic Kingdom tour is also good and reasonable, on that one we went through the door between the Tangled Toilets and Small World to go backstage to enter the mantience room of the Haunted Mansion. This was during park hours and the ride was open, its completely dark but you go directly under the ride vehicles in the Ballroom Scene and see the actual dancing "ghosts" and how that illusion works.
Thank you so much for this Nate and for the trouble that you went to do go back and walk the tour route again for us and show us your lunch choice. I loved this video and so hope to one day do the tour for myself as I would love it. :) x
I managed to get a reservation for this tour on March 8th. At first nothing was available but I kept trying on the app and after 2 days I was able to snag a reservation.
KTTK is a wonderful tour. We loved seeing your excitement post tour. We were fortunate to meet you that afternoon! We were thrilled you made time to chat a bit and let us snap a picture with you. It was our wedding anniversary and we met you as we were leaving MK to get ready for our dinner at Trattoria al Forno. You made our day! Thank you again for all you do. No matter what kind of crazy day I have at work I look forward to getting home, pouring a cup of coffee, and watching your awesome videos with my hubby and being happy!
Wowzers! Looking forward to watching this with my lunch today! How exciting! 🎉 I haven't been 'underground' since Cast Member orientation back in 1999. 😲 Thanks so much for sharing. 💕 -Aimee
In the early 70s when Disney was new ( yea I'm old), my hs band played in front of the castle & they took us thru the utilidors, saw awesome seeing that.
I have taken many of these tours in the past and they were all so much fun and a lot of facts and information. I want to take some of them again because you brain starts going into overload with all the information but for a Disney lover its all so much great information .
Loved this vlog so much! Great job! Just wanted to put this out there if no one has yet, the cost is in addition to the park admission cost. (As a reminder 😉) unless something has changed since reopening after pandemic closure.
Nate, this was such an awesome and classy video! I’ve heard about this tour, have never been on it, and now will definitely take it after watching your video. Kudos to you for every video you create and share. We ❤️ watching you!
I got to see you at Magic Kingdom the other day. I walked past you near space mountain slapped you on the arm and said “Great Channel” and kept walking. You said “Thanks so much” You might remember. Lol
Thank u so much for your videos.I look forward too watching your videos when I get home from work.U are such a wonderful man.Hope to run into u one day.
0:35 Yay - that was me honking. So happy to see you from my monorail. I'm glad Keys to the Kingdom is back, it is such an amazing tour! Seeing you made my day.
What a wonderful job you have. I hope you drive us if we ever make it back over there from the 🇬🇧
@@runaroundsueaccessibletrav6357 that's amazing! 🙌😍
That's my husband's dream job...to retire at Disney World and drive the Monorail! 😃
So stoked I could contribute to your magical day! Thanks for stopping by!
xoxo Skipper Natalie :)
I was going to make a separate comment saying that this skipper was awesome. But… now that you are here… Great job! I hope you can be my family’s skipper someday. Jungle Cruise is my husband and sons favorite ride.
Hi Nathan, Don't hesitate to go on the tour again! I've been on the tour twice and the guides added their own knowledge to the required script. One guide added technical and architectural knowledge and the next guide gave us more show knowledge. There are many great backstage tours! Thanks for keeping us informed.
My wife and I did this tour many years a go and were literally in tears at the end when our guide talked about the Partners statue and the one of Minnie and Roy. Tearing up now just remembering! The tour is Well worth the price!
This is further proof that Disney is an ongoing learning adventure - even for Disney experts like yourself Nate!
Yesss That’s amazing!!
Claire the Co-conspirator.
I did the Keys to the Kingdom tour about 20 years ago. Sounds like they mostly do the same stops and the servants entrance at the Haunted Mansion. Our Utilidoors tour was more circular, showed where all the costumes are made and kept, the ride electronics and computer systems. Even an empty Mickey costume.
My friends and I took the Backstage Magic tour several years ago. It was 7 hours and started in Epcot and ended in the Magic Kingdom. We were down in the Utilidoors as well.

:37 did that monorail 🚝 honk at me that is amazing 🤩 your excitement makes me laugh and smile 😊
Hahahaahh
Great video Nate. When my family did this tour, back 2018, it was simple to let them know at morning checkin, that two people were vegan, and at lunch time, there were special vegan lunches awaiting them besides everything else prepared for the tour. Totally simple and easily accommodated.

There really is no down time there anymore. Wow the crowds
We would love this tour. We got to see behind Main Street once. One of my kids got sick (not serious) and needed to go to a local health clinic.

what did you think?
Okay I’m sold. I 100% want to do this. But can we all agree the tour WITH PMM would be even better???

i went backstage in 91.. sooo awesome
$114 is a great value for everything that you got. Thanks for sharing it with us. Do more of them!
I wonder if you have to buy a park pass on top of that price
@@hairdresser1300 you must have a park ticket and reservation in addition to this event purchase.
My brother in law did that tour a few years ago, he loved it. He just wished there were a few other things they'd show, but the utilidors and the vacuum system were the best parts for him. He's a repairman where we work and he loves this sort of thing.
I love seeing your love and enthusiasm. I don't care if you're talking about Disney or trains or rocks. I am just happy to see people happy. Keep doing what you're doing and I wish you the best!
Ignorance is bliss! I rather not see behind the scenes myself but am happy it's available for folks who do
This key 🔑 to the kingdom tour looks so much fun 🤩
It really is and it’s also such a great value
I went on this tour a few years ago. It was a big thrill to go under into the utilidors. It’s definitely something special.

Dana is the best! She's led tours I've been on before and she's very knowledgeable and personable!
I did the tour over ten years ago and is still one of the best memories I have. We went down through a different door and at at a different restaurant for lunch. I still have my key. Love the video! Thanks so much! Makes me really want to do it again.
I took the tour when MSEP was still there and got a close up look inside some floats.
My husband and I have gone on several behind-the-scenes tours (Epcot, Animal Kingdom, Magic Kingdom, and even the warehouses) and loved every one of them. Glad you had a very good experience.
Thanks for posting your experience. I am definitely going to do this tour. You confirmed my suspicion as to where the parade floats were stored.
I definitely need to do this tour!!!! I have always wanted to go in the underground tunnels. So worth the cost of the tour. Thank you for sharing Nate, I love it!!!
I had no idea that this tour was so affordable. I will definitely at this to the list. Thanks, Nate!
Booked for April 12!!! I’m so excited I can’t wait. I’ve always wanted to do this and now my dream will come true. Are you kidding? Wow!!!!!
OMG We just did this this past Saturday for my birthday and LOVED IT!!!!
Nate, not sure if you remember but we met you shortly after you finished the keys tour. You were just outside the main gate making a call maybe.

The last time I was in the utilidor was when I was around 4 yrs old and went with my Dad to pick up his check back in 1971. I didn’t appreciate how rare that was back then like I do now. I really want to do this tour so I can see it as an adult.
I just got to watch this - we were traveling to WDW on the 6th and went to Epcot on the 7th. We had a great trip and stayed at Contemporary... that back way into Haunted Mansion is how they used to let us in with the DAS pass.
Nate, we finally got a chance to meet you on the tour, we were the folks from Rochester NY. Thank you for being so kind to everyone that recognized you! You never seemed bothered at all and like I told you, thank you, as we've all learned so much from you!! Now that we're back in snow country we can still be at Disney through your eyes! Keep rockin' the awesome videos my friend!!
I took the tour right before Covid. I loved it., I think it’s worth it. I love WDW, I’ve been lucky to visit many times! I hope to visit again before 50th celebration ends 🎈
Im so excited! I am going in May. Wanted to do for 10+ years. First time without children, so we booked it!
I did tour in 2018. It was amazing. I did see something that I can't un see. In the utilidors, I saw Cinderella in a tee shirt and sweat pants. I loved the fact that you recreated the tour as much as you could.
I saw Snow White in a similar fashion.
This was fantastic Nate!! I hope to do the tour one day!! I absolutely love the history and stories behind Disney World and especially Magic Kingdom. Thank you so much for sharing!!😊
We did this in 2019, it was an amazing day and well worth the money. Got to see Magic Kingdom in a totally different way. Hope to do it again when we come over in September
Thank you Nate, for such an interesting and informative video. I will watch this video a couple of more times. I share the same excitement and passion for Walt Disney World as you do. Excellent job!
Pecos Bills is amazing! Glad you tried it and enjoyed it!
25:44 was my everything! Thank you so much for sharing brother!
I did it a few years back. It sounds like it changed a little bit. It truly was amazing!

Nate Keys to the Kingdom is a awesome tour and for the money a great value. Another tour that is very reasonable is the Behind the Seeds at The Land. The Marceline to Magic Kingdom tour is also good and reasonable, on that one we went through the door between the Tangled Toilets and Small World to go backstage to enter the mantience room of the Haunted Mansion. This was during park hours and the ride was open, its completely dark but you go directly under the ride vehicles in the Ballroom Scene and see the actual dancing "ghosts" and how that illusion works.
Thank you so much for this Nate and for the trouble that you went to do go back and walk the tour route again for us and show us your lunch choice. I loved this video and so hope to one day do the tour for myself as I would love it. :) x
I managed to get a reservation for this tour on March 8th. At first nothing was available but I kept trying on the app and after 2 days I was able to snag a reservation.
KTTK is a wonderful tour. We loved seeing your excitement post tour. We were fortunate to meet you that afternoon! We were thrilled you made time to chat a bit and let us snap a picture with you. It was our wedding anniversary and we met you as we were leaving MK to get ready for our dinner at Trattoria al Forno. You made our day!
Thank you again for all you do. No matter what kind of crazy day I have at work I look forward to getting home, pouring a cup of coffee, and watching your awesome videos with my hubby and being happy!
We absolutely loved doing it, made me cry being able to go beneath everything, learned so much, definitely worth the money.
Wowzers! Looking forward to watching this with my lunch today! How exciting! 🎉
I haven't been 'underground' since Cast Member orientation back in 1999. 😲
Thanks so much for sharing. 💕

In the early 70s when Disney was new ( yea I'm old), my hs band played in front of the castle & they took us thru the utilidors, saw awesome seeing that.
So awesome that you want folks to have an unspoiled experience.
You Rock, Nate’Man!
I have to agree with you Nate when I was a Walt Disney World annual passholder a jungle cruise Skipper could really make your day
I have taken many of these tours in the past and they were all so much fun and a lot of facts and information. I want to take some of them again because you brain starts going into overload with all the information but for a Disney lover its all so much great information .
We are going to do this tour at Christmastime. We are so excited and looking forward to it! Thanks, Nate for a great video!
How fun! I cannot wait to see this. Makes me think of my days as a MK Cast Member. I miss WDW so much!!
That is so awesome
We are currently on the tour at lunch. Thanks to this we booked it.
Loved this vlog so much! Great job! Just wanted to put this out there if no one has yet, the cost is in addition to the park admission cost. (As a reminder 😉) unless something has changed since reopening after pandemic closure.
We got to walk through an essentially emtpy adventure land at the end of MNSSHP, it was an awesome experience
When I first saw this video upload, I was thinking, uh oh, gonna need to be many spoiler alerts!!😂
Nate, this was such an awesome and classy video! I’ve heard about this tour, have never been on it, and now will definitely take it after watching your video. Kudos to you for every video you create and share. We ❤️ watching you!
I got to see you at Magic Kingdom the other day. I walked past you near space mountain slapped you on the arm and said “Great Channel” and kept walking. You said “Thanks so much” You might remember. Lol
Thank you PMM! We are trying to decide which extra to add onto our next trip & this was great!
Loved this tour We are definitely looking forward to scheduling a date.
(#774) I remember when, back in the early 80's, I got a chance to go underneath in the tunnels. That is such a cool 😎 walk!!!
Nothing in Tomorrowland? Aww! Fabulous work having to recreate the entire tour wow!
We did the keys to the kingdom. It was awesome but I didn't know the book signing at the Haunted Mansion. Wow!
Thank u so much for your videos.I look forward too watching your videos when I get home from work.U are such a wonderful man.Hope to run into u one day.
I’ve been backstage on the tour, and backstage with my daughters marching band. They paraded down Main Street 2 of her 4 years in high school!
Tour sounds tempting to sign up for.. probably a long waiting list. Glad you enjoyed & I know u appreciate everything
I loved the keys to the kingdom tour! We ate at a different restaurant, I know they use different ones all the time. We saw all the parade floats too!
My husband and I took this tour many many years ago and it was great.
