Looking for a unique and affordable experience on your next Disney World trip? Consider the Behind the Seeds Tour at Epcot’s Land Pavilion. For around $40, this hour-long walking tour offers a fascinating glimpse into the innovative world of Disney’s greenhouses.

While many tours at Disney can cost hundreds, even thousands, of dollars, Behind the Seeds offers incredible value. Forget the Segway tours or VIP experiences, this budget-friendly option lets you explore cutting-edge growing techniques alongside a knowledgeable guide. You’ll see firsthand how Disney cultivates produce and learn about sustainable agriculture practices.

The tour expands on the popular Living with the Land boat ride, allowing guests to walk through the greenhouses and get up close to the plants, fruits, vegetables, and fish. From aquaponic tanks to towering gourds and the ride’s famous hydroponics system, there’s plenty to see. The guides are full of interesting facts and happy to answer questions, making the experience both educational and engaging.

But it’s not all serious learning. Guests get to sample freshly harvested produce (prepare for the tastiest cucumber of your life!) and even interact with “Stanley,” a Mimosa pudica plant known for its sensitive leaves that close when touched.

The Behind the Seeds Tour is a unique way to spend an hour at Epcot, offering a memorable experience without breaking the bank. It might even inspire you, like it did this reporter, to explore other Disney tours on future visits.
