TPR East Coast Bash Question - backstage tour – worth the additional cost?
We’re headed to ECB this year, and we’re looking at the $40 pp BGW backstage tour. We’ve been on West Coast Bash in 2010 and did backstage tours of Goliath (SFMM) and the Calico Mine train ride (KBF). While it was really cool to see behind the scenes, I don’t think it would’ve been worth an additional $40 each. What’s different about the BGW tour that has it costing so much more than the ECB entrance fees? Is it one of the standard tours listed on the BGW website? Has anyone done one of these before, and if so can you tell us what made it worthwhile?
We’ve also done US Orlando Behind the Screams tour during Halloween Horror Nights (haunts with the lights on!) and that was worth the $$ and we like seeing the inner workings of the parks, but pure coaster engineering isn’t always our biggest interest. So fellow, TPR fanatics, should we splurge and buy tix for the backstage tour at BGW?
Thanks for your input.
