Enjoy Southern California: Disney Backstage itinerary from Adventures by Disney

Disney’s highly anticipated “Saving Mr. Banks” is now in theaters across the country and has gotten rave reviews from Disney fans all over. The excitement can only get bigger when you plan to enjoy the “practically perfect” Southern California: Disney Backstage itinerary from Adventures by Disney. This Adventures by Disney trip allows you to walk through and experience some of the locations where the movie was filmed and learn even more about the man who started the magic, Walt Disney.

“Inspired by true events, ‘Saving Mr. Banks’ is the extraordinary, untold story of how Disney’s classic “Mary Poppins” made it to the screen – and the testy relationship Walt Disney had with author P.L. Travers that almost derailed it. Filmed almost entirely in the Los Angeles area, the film features some of its most iconic locations: the Disneyland Resort, the Walt Disney Studios, and Hollywood Blvd., all of which are stops on this rare, behind-the-magic Adventures by Disney trip.”

As an adventurer on this trip, you will receive priority treatment when visiting some of these locations. You can let your inner star out when you participate in a privately guided tour of Hollywood Blvd., transporting you to a world of glitz and glamour. You can also follow in the footsteps of your favorite celebrities as you walk through top iconic sites of Tinseltown like the TCL Chinese Theatre and the Hollywood Walk of Fame.

Another one of the trip’s highlights is a privately guided visit to the Walt Disney Studios. Did you know that although “Mary Poppins” was set in London, the original film in 1964 was filmed in its entirety at the Walt Disney Studios?

Lastly, on the Southern California: Disney Backstage itinerary from Adventures by Disney, you will experience the happiest place on Earth in the most “supercalifragilisticexpialidocious” way: with a 2-day VIP experience at Disneyland park and Disney California Adventure park. Your Disneyland visit is complemented with Disney’s FASTPASS service and even a visit to Walt Disney’s Disneyland apartment.
