Disney Travel Planning Guide

What You Need To Know to Plan the
Perfect Disney World Vacation

Planning a Disney vacation is not like planning other trips

With over 47 square miles of property, Disney is a world unto its own. Yes, there are theme parks, but there is much more to see and do including exciting entertainment, world-class shopping, endless sports, premier spas, championship golfing, and exceptional dining that you can’t experience it all in one trip, which is one reason people visit again and again.

Planning a vacation is time-consuming, especially a Disney vacation. If you are a first-time guest, it can be confusing. Questions like “What is the best hotel in Disney for my family,” “How many days should I visit the Magic Kingdom,” or “Do I need to make advance dining reservations?” are very common questions. Even if you have visited before, Disney World is constantly evolving and changing. To make the most of your vacation, you will need to be on top of the latest news, trends, and promotions.

Planning a Disney vacation can be very time-consuming, confusing, and frustrating if you really don’t know the ins and outs to Disney.

If this is your first time planning a Disney vacation, you might find yourself walking through a dark tunnel trying to find the light at the end, especially  when trying to find the best deals or the even deciding on the best plans to make for creating the most magical moments.

These guides will help you plan your vacation However, if after reading you still feel overwhelmed, or just want someone else to do the heavy lifting for you, consider booking your vacation with a Disney Travel specialist. Most, like our friends at Destination Magic, will book your trip for free, and it will not cost any more than booking directly with Disney. Some, like Destination Magic, offer special concierge services such as detailed itinerary planning so you can make the most of every moment of your vacation.

But even if you are not overwhelmed, working with a Disney Travel is like starting your vacation before you ever leave home.
