Oh, the guests enjoyed it. It was weird for me because I was a previous CM and we were always told that guests were never allowed backstage.
Right when we entered, we had to go backstage, so we started at the entrance from City Hall. We walked from there until we hit Jungle Cruise and were allowed to go back onstage.
They open that route up daily now, and have done a decent job hiding the backside of buildings and dressing it up with attraction posters. Still seems cheap and rushed, but better then what I imagine the rest of backstage Disneyland looks like.
One time, a CM was standing in front of the jungle cruise boat storage and yelling that we weren't allowed to take photos back there. Was really weird- haven't been told we couldn't any of the other times I've walked through there during the parade or fireworks. I get that it's a backstage area, but when you're literally funneling thousands of guests through I imagine backstage 'no photo rules' are really tough to enforce.
