Have done this tour twice and it was excellent each time. The CM on each tour was personable, knowledgeable, and definitely made the experience even more enjoyable.
Pros:
Informative, ample time to really have time to go through some of the backstage areas, nice lunch, excellent CM guides who were very knowledgeable and engaged with participantsCons:

So many reviews I’ve read have been hard on FastPass. I’m here to tell you that if you put in some planning, FastPass can allow you to experience SO MANY ATTRACTIONS. The beauty of it you need to know is to make sure you use the My Disney Experience App and be sure to schedule your first three FPs early each day. Then you can book another FP - one at a time. A lot of rides, especially in MK are short and sweet and are easy to get FPs for. You can avoid a 20 minute line here, a 30 minute line there. It may not seem like much but it can 100% help you enjoy multiple experiences and have more time to enjoy the rest of the park! Go in smart and plan ahead. Make it work for you!
Pros:
Getting multiple experiences in one dayCons:
Getting the big attractions needs to be done FAR in advance so pay attention to when you can start making FPs before your vacation starts!Review of Pandora -- the World of Avatar

My absolute favorite ride in Walt Disney World (currently) is Avatar: Flight of Passage. It is a completely unique experience and a must-see. The unique Pandora drinks are delicious and the Drum Ceremony cannot fail to pull you into its high intensity experience. I would definitely recommend!
Pros:
Flight of Passage, bubble drinks, Drum ceremonyCons:
Nav’i River Journey (beautiful but too short with too long a line) and the land itself feels crampedReview of Caribbean Beach Resort (Moderate Resort)

I adore CBR! It's a lovely place to call home for your stay at WDW. As a moderate resort, its close proximity to Epcot and Hollywood Studios is unmatched, and with the addition of the Skyliner that's coming in 2019, I can only see its popularity rising. The pool is one of the coolest pools on property, with two waterslides and the dining options are great.
Pros:
A deluxe feel for a moderate price, beautiful resort and great locationCons:

One of my favorite places to stay at WDW! I love the close proximity to Epcot and Hollywood Studios, the variety of dining, and the gorgeous boardwalk with its views of Spaceship Earth. The staff is awesome, and we were luckily "stuck" with them during Hurricane Irma last year, where they took excellent care of us.
Pros:
Great views, within walking distance of Epcot and Hollywood Studios, good variety of diningCons:

Good food and not too pricey, and the decor is awesome. It can be loud at times, especially in the ballroom, so we prefer to eat in the West Wing or the library. I also highly recommend the mobile order option, which brings your food out almost immediately after you're seated.
Pros:
Good food, awesome atmosphere, mobile orderingCons:
Loud, and sometimes your food is slow in coming out.Reviewed by Shannon Review Date: 09/30/2018

A nice breakfast with no crowds and meetings with five princesses with easy reservations. The breakfast options are pretty good but if you have picky eaters, it might not be the best choice.
Pros:
Less crowded, easy to get reservations, decent price.Cons:

The Swan is a fantastic Disney option. It’s extremely convenient to Hollywood Studios and Epcot. It has very good restaurant options, ranging from quick service to fine dining (Il Mulino perhaps being the best). The rooms have all been recently updated. The pool/beach complex is large and beautifully kept. All that plus SPG/Marriott Rewards Points. What more could you ask for?
Pros:
Rewards program, lots of dining options, lovely pool, updated roomsCons:

I love AKL, and nothing beats having breakfast on the balcony while watching the animals. Gorgeous rooms and wonderful staff.
Pros:

Being so far away from the rest of WDW and only having the buses as transportation options.Review of Food & Wine Food Booths

Husband and I went to the festival tonight for a few hours. We had the pork slider and Spam hash from Hawaii. We also had the sausage and honey wine from Ireland. While we enjoyed the food, we noticed the portion size is smaller.
