My 'pre-teen' seemed a bit uncomfortable with some of the "pretending" (i.e. Pretend you are a plane and fly down Main Street, etc.), so he instead focused his attention on helping his 3-year old brother keep up with the activities. Also, at 11, he was the oldest kid on our tour that day. Overall, the tour definitely seems geared toward the 3-9 year old set. Hope this helps!

There were a couple of teenagers on our tour--they were pretty bored and tried to jump ship a couple of times! LOL. Their parents were enjoying the tour much more than they were. You do a lot of acting, singing, dancing, taking over a raft and acting so silly that I think some older kids may be self-conscious of the crowds. My kids were still young that they didn't care of people stopped and looked at them.
