We did this in Feb, and it truely depends on your guide. Ours was pretty terrible.
We spent the first 90 minutes on mainstreet, in corners with views of nothing to be out of the way of other guests, while he talked for 20 or 30 minutes a stop. It was a lot of standing, and very little walking.
The rest he spent in adventure land, that's right, we never made it to Fantasy land or Tomorrow land.
He focused on the philosophy of Disney, which we already were quite familiar with, and spent very little time explaining how they achieved the magic. Many of his "facts" were wrong. (We were with a long time CM, that was shaking his head thhe whole time)
By the time we reached lunch, our food was cold. Take this into account when picking your lunch choices....
Our tour ran about 40 minutes long. Other members of our party were waiting around for us to finish. If you have a fast pass, assume you won't be done for 5 hours.
Hmmm, interesting. We did this tour a couple years ago. We loved the tour and our tour guide, she shared lots of interesting info. Some things we already knew, lots of things we didn't, even though we've been going to Wdw for years. And I appreciated that we had some talks in out of the way areas instead of in the middle of other guests or crowds. The food was great, nice and hot and very good. I don't think New Fantasyland was quite open yet. But I don't recall that Fantasyland or Tomorrowland were supposed to be part of the tour. So we didn't miss it, it wasn't supposed to be included in the tour. There's no way we could have fit in any touring or time there and still finished in the allotted five hours. Maybe they are included in a longer tour, but not Kttk. But, I would agree that the tour guide could make or break a tour!
