Disney Trip

[apples and bananas]

Hi Everyone,

We're leaving for Disney next month. I'm wondering if anyone has some tips and tricks. My kids are 5 and 8.

I use to do hair and a old client of mine went few times and would do a tour under disney! He told me it was like a hole other city under their. he said it was amazing!

I've never gone with little ones, however, I would pace yourself. Don't try to do/see everything in one day. Tired cranky kids are no fun.

The magic kingdom is the most fun for kids .... If your going to do the animal kingdom ... The safari is the best ...... If you have to pay extra for a fast pass it's worth it cause you don't have to wait so long in lines. Make sure you take the time to see the parade and the fireworks. And most of all make sure you go on buzz lightyear ..... The coolest ride.
If you can make it to universal ... It's worth it .... Better then disney in my opinion ...My favourite was the subway ride (can't remember the name).... And twister was pretty amazing too and so was back to the future. ...... Have fun .... Wish I could head there myself ....

Did you go on the Disney website? They have all kinds of great package deals where you can stay at their resort and have passes to the park all included. Friends of mine went for about $1600 for a family of 4 recently.

7 days for us!!!! So excited!

We have 3 days planned. 2 at MK and 1 at HS. My daughter did the bibbity bobbity boutique when she was 5 and absolutly loved it! Not in the plan this time though. This is a quick disney only trip... In and out in 5 days, 3 days of parks, 1 day of resort and 1 day i downtown.

I have planned myself to death! Ha! Over planned probably.

If you really want the most out of your trip, plan plan plan. Hope you are staying at a Disney resort ?!? that way you are able to enjoy the ''Extra Magic hours''. Plan to go to the parks that opens early or stay open later for those who stays on site. Plus when you stay on site you get the fast pass and thats a must. Having Park-Hoper Tickets get really handy so you can start your day here, go rest and go back there. Have also the dinning plan if possible, so much easier and cheaper for meals and snacks. When you get to the Parks, grab the Park schedule to see the different show, the character spots, the parades and the fireworks. You need at least 2 days to Magic Kingdom to really enjoy it, perhaps 2 days at Epcot... not my fav, Animal Kingdom is only a daytime thing so you can go to another park at night or rest at the Hotel or even go to Downtown Disney, I went to Hollywood Studios 2 days as well to see all the shows and attractions.

I did not know about special tours man now I will have to go back to visit the under Disney for sure !

If you have girls, get them the Disney Princess experience at the Bibbidi Bobiddi Boutique at Cinderella Castle, it is so worth it especially before 8 years old I think...

Definitely go to Universal Studios if you can... but thats like a 3 days trip on its own because you have 2 parks to visit (2 days at Adventure Island and 1 at Universal). I stayed on site there as well, that way you get special treats, early access to Harry Potter and the fast pass to rides is a must

Of course you will be exhausted after your trip but man will you have tones of neverending memories

DisneyPrincess is so right, but look her name - of course she's right, haha! I went to Europe in the 80's with just maps. We didn't have the internet then. Now, it's amazing what you can find on if you search around on the internet.

Haha I am a Disney fan all the way. I sadly dont visit every year like some does but if I could, I would. One thing for sure, is that if I have to work until I am 65 years old, that is the place I want to work, what better place to feel young forever

Oh I also forgot to mention very important : get the Disney Photopass when you get there. They have photographers all over the parks and with the Characters, they scan you card every time, take a many pictures as you want, its all free, the pictures are great quality and the whole family can be in the picture. When your trip is done, just by the CD or even faster the ''download'' of all the pictures and then you can print at Walmart for example. That you have 50 pics or 200 pics it will cost the same though. And before you buy the CD or Download, you can edit you pictures on the Disney Photopass website and add some cool frames and stuff. OMG you are going to have so much fun
