Epcot Wine Walk
If you enjoy trying wine from various countries and regions try the Epcot Wine Walk. The Wine Walk is often an overlooked activity in Epcot. When you purchase it you receive two refillable glasses and a passport that entitles you to, and tracks, your two pours at each location. You can purchase the Wine Walk in either the Germany, France, or Italy wine shops. Take your tasting passport and Wine Walk glass to the wine shops in each shop and enjoy a taste of wines from various regions in each country.
If you don’t want to complete the Wine Walk but still like the wine glass, you can buy just the wine glass for $5.00. Then you can purchase wines of your choice at each of the three locations. Plus, you’ve got a pretty cool souvenir to take home!
Behind the Seeds Tour
If you have ever wondered where some of the food comes from in the parks and resorts you’ll find out on the Living with the Land ride. To learn even more, take the Behind the Seeds tour.
The Behind the Seeds tours are led by a member of the Epcot Science Team and let you discover more than 60 crops from around the world, see some of the latest techniques used to grow and improve plants, and walk through the fish farm to see thousands of fish — and alligators. You might even get up close to some ladybugs and learn how they help keep the insect population down.
You can sign up for the tour on the day of if there is availability, or sign up in advance by calling (407) WDW-TOUR. The cost is $25 for adults and $20 for children. Be sure to ask about annual passholder, DVC, and Disney Chase Visa Cardholder discounts.
Enjoy the Entertainment
The live entertainment in Epcot is worth the price of admission alone. First, for those who love the characters, there is plenty to see in Epcot. The Character Connection in Future World is a great place to start. Follow that with various meet and greets in the countries.
Over in World Showcase, you can spend your entire day going from country to country and with cultural experiences from around the Globe. Without festivals, the park is a little less congested, and this gives you space and time to enjoy the entertainment in the World Showcase pavilions. There are musical groups in the Canada, UK, Morocco, American Adventure, and Germany pavilions, the Serveur Amusant with their amazing climbing and balancing act in France, the Matsuriza drums in Japan, Sergio and his juggling act in Italy, the Jewel Dragon Acrobats in China, and the Mariachi Cobre as well as their retelling of the tale of Coco in Mexico.
Of course, there are the classic eat around the world or drink around the world activities as well. I wanted to take this time to point out a few of the lesser known or not as popular things to do in Epcot.
