✈ Behind the Scenes at Disney World, NASA's Planned Launch & More Daily News From TPG ✈

Also: First look at Norwegian Prima [The Points Guy]( WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW TODAY Sep 3, 2022 WE HAVE THE KEYS TO THE KINGDOM Hello again! I'm TPG family travel writer Tarah Chieffi back with you for the next two weeks. I’ve been on quite a few adventures since we were last together and I have a few more on the horizon. Most recently, I visited Disney World and went on [Disney’s Keys to the Kingdom Tour](. Even as someone who writes about Disney almost daily, I learned so many details about Disney history and how the parks were created that I had never heard before. The tour is priced at $114 per person plus tax ($121.41 total) and each tour holds about 20 guests. Most exciting of all, our tour guide took us into the Magic Kingdom’s backstage areas, including the underground “utilidor” system that Disney uses to get cast members and supplies around the park unseen. I love finding unique experiences that show you another side of Disney and give you another way to experience the parks. I would highly recommend it to any Disney fan. Of course, I haven’t only been hitting up the theme parks. Here are a few stories about some of my other recent travels. - [Why a vintage train car at the Crowne Plaza is the best hotel stay in Indianapolis]( - [What to pack and where to stay: TPG’s ultimate Grand Canyon family vacation guide]( - [A retro renovation on Route 66: My stay at a modern-day motor lodge]( Now, I am sitting in a hotel room in Orlando working up the nerve for my next theme park visit. Theme parks don’t usually scare me, but I am here for [Universal Orlando’s Halloween Horror Nights](. On most theme park visits, my main concern is the heat or whether I wore the right shoes for all that walking, but today I’m just hoping to survive the night without crying. Wish me luck.
