Disney World for the 1%
The rich and famous experience Disney World differently from the rest of us: they're escorted by VIP Tour Guides, elite Cast Members who truly do hold the keys to the kingdom. Annie Salisbury was one of these Cast Members, in charge of making the very best magic for those who could afford it.
In The Ride Delegate, her memoir of life as a Disney World VIP tour guide, Annie shares some of her most memorable experiences:
The Middle Eastern royal family who needed a room at the Contemporary where all thirty-seven of them could pray, right now
The wealthy woman who used cancer as an excuse for why her family should be able to ride It's a Small World until they were ready to get off
The mysterious VIP (dubbed "Dr. No" by Annie) who arrived for his afternoon tour in a private plane at a private airport in the swamp
The famous football player who didn't understand why he couldn't ride Universal's Incredible Hulk Coaster at EPCOT
Plus, you'll learn about the perks and privileges of being a VIP Tour Guide, from corn dogs to illicit cash, and the lengths to which Disney will go to keep its VIP guests happy
Come get a taste of what Disney World is like for those with deep pockets-and personalities to match-and meet the eccentric, outrageous guests who turned Annie's dream job into a reality show.
