"A new Star Wars Guided Tour is also in the works for the ultimate Star Wars fan visiting Disney’s Hollywood Studios. This seven-hour guided tour will be led by a Star Wars “all-in-the-know” tour guide that will include: a journey on Star Tours – The Adventures Continue; an opportunity to participate in Jedi Training: Trials of the Temple (for guests age 4-12); a guided exploration of Star Wars Launch Bay, dinner at a quick-service restaurant featuring Star Wars-themed items; the Star Wars: A Galactic Spectacular Dessert Party; fireworks viewing and more.

Its time to do the math again :)
 
They can upsell as much as they want, who cares its STAR WARS... wooooooo.
 
I can see this after the new land is finished but there's not 7 hours of activity available.


I'm sure we'll see tours after the new land is finished. But I'm also quite sure those will be more than $129.
 
It doesn't say that you do any meet and greets (unless I missed it) - in 7 hours I'd want to meet Chewie. I feel like if you have kids young enough to do JTA, 7 hours would be a long tour, although I know a chunk of it would be the dessert party.
 
$129 is the worth? Ok so it will be interesting to see what the price is.

I wonder if this will become the new way to get Jedi Training spots.

I was thinking about the same thing about the Jedi Training spots, although 7 hours seems like a big time commitment. I'm curious about the price as well...
 
So , the SW Ultimate Tour
First off the 7 hours. I see people asking how can they fill it, also, yes most of these are free things so it will be hard to put value to them

  • A Star Wars “all-in-the-know” tour guide ok, he/she will probably escort you from place to place, I really want someone to test on the "know it all" part :) VALUE: obviously can't compare to the full on VIP CM ($400-$600 an hour for a large group) this person will make sure you get where you are going, get into the things that are promised and apparently tell you a lot of SW facts while he/she is on the job. I doubt he/she will be with you for 7 hours straight

  • Priority boarding for Star Tours – The Adventures Continue: regular fp line probably VALUE: whatever value you put on a fp, it does release a fp from your regular plans, so...

  • Encounter two Star Wars characters (Chewbacca and Kylo Ren) at Star Wars Launch Bay no wait for either character VALUE: whatever you value time, lines for them can be anywhere from non existent to about 30 minutes depending on time of year/day

  • An in-depth, insider’s tour around Star Wars Launch Bay: Again here come the facts, not that they are not there for you to read, VALUE: very little, IMHO, the only true real props say they are on loan from Lucas, all the rest are replicas, and like I said, everything there is available to read. Unless there's some secret behind the scenes something...

  • Screening of “Star Wars: Path of the Jedi”: Super easy show to get into, I do watch it often as it gives you that warm, Star Warsie feels VAALUE: very little IMHO

  • Enjoy Star Wars-themed menu items during dinner at Backlot Express.: So are they making new items availablle or will it be the same Imperial buurger and sald. VALUE: let's goo with an Imperial Burger, a drink and a BB8 cupcake $13.49+$3.29+$5.99= $22.77 per person plus tax

  • A spot in the Star Wars: A Galactic Spectacular Dessert Party, which includes themed sweets and specialty beverages, as well as reserved viewing for the Star Wars: A Galactic Spectacular fireworks show: And this is where the fun begins. First off, we all know how hard some of these dessert party dates are to book, some sell out in a day, some stay open a long time. By getting this package you are guaranteed a spot even if the party is sold out. VALUE: $69 per person

  • Younglings ages 4-12 on the guided tour package can also train in the way of The Force in Jedi Training: Trials of the Temple: a free sign up but you do need to be there early in the morning to get the spot you want. VALUE: whatever you put on sleep and peace of mind that your kid will get into JT.

So, here's the money breakdown
LUNCH: rounding it out to $25
SWaGS dessert party: $69
The difference is $31 that you can put on all the non quantifiable values.

From this tour we can also be sure that SWaGS will play at least on Mondays and Saturdays
