Disney Visa Card - Benefits - Anyone Have Feedback on Tours?

I have held a Chase Disney Visa for the last fours years...I use only the Disney Reward $$%26#39;s from the vast benefit list. For all those other Disney card holders, have you taken advantage of the other benefits? Has anyone done the tours they list with a 20% discount? Have you found them easy to use or more of a hassle? I have never thought of doing any of the organzied tours but some of them sound interesting...if you had to pick one or two tours, what would they be??

From the Disney site, they list the following:

Character Meet %26#39;N%26#39; Greet

Hi MDJ

Yes, we ( myself and or other family members )have taken advantage of quite a few

The Character meet and great at Epcot, always use the visa card to get a discount off shopping at DTD, Behind the seeds tour discount ( we are Garden People ), Dive Quest, Simple Segway Tour ( hope to do the Full Length one at Ft. Wilderness next trip ) just to name a few.

You can now get a rewards card when you get to Disney just incase you didn%26#39;t do that before you left ( found this out last Sept )

We have never wanted to do one of the really long tours, feel it might be too much and take away too much Park time but I think in the future it will be on our list :)

Start with a simple tour like Behind the Seeds or maybe the Magic Kingdom Park. Getting a discount always makes it more enjoyable

The tours are included on our package, so can%26#39;t speak to cost but I can recommend a few of them..

Diving With Dolphins was a lot of fun, tho the in-water experience was shorter than I hoped.

My wife loved Aqua Seas (snorkeling in the big Epcot tank). Me not so much, because I couldn%26#39;t wear my glasses and therefore much bluriness. Personally, I%26#39;d get scuba certed and do the full dive next time.

Keys to the Kingdom Tour - This was fun, and really interesting (there%26#39;s lots of little things in MK that you don%26#39;t notice until someone points them out). Not all the guides go there, but if you can see the lost and found, that%26#39;s an event in itself.
