Disney World will always be the #1 place to go for an amusement park vacation. It doesn’t matter what month it is, it’s always a good time to go to Disney World (unless there’s a hurricane). Here is some information guidelines about Disney World.

My Experience of DisneyWorld

Disney World has always been a tradition for my family for some reason. Every two years, we go to the happiest place on earth. I know every park in my head, like a big map. I know where all the rides and food places are located, as anyone should if they went the number of times I have. Disney World is starting to fade to me though; I’ve done the same rides over and over again really is starting to make me wonder if I should be going elsewhere for a vacation.

Now Disney World can be experienced a few ways. First, you could stay at a Disney resort, or you can stay at a resort outside of the park. If you flew, I’d recommend a Disney resort because renting a car to go in and out isn’t very a viable option. Now Disney resorts are more expensive, but they provide you with transportation, pools/water parks, and amazing room service which is a standard that every Disney employee is always eager to meet.

What You Need for the Experience

Disney World is huge, and you must keep track of your physical/mental state as well as weather conditions. I recommend bringing a small backpack and bringing a small snack and a water bottle. Just in case of rain, pack ponchos for your family. If you have a smartphone, you can get the Disney experience app, which saves the use of maps and makes wait times easier to reach.

The My Disney Experience app is everything you need to know in one. The app will allow you to reserve dinner and lunches at certain restaurants, and look at a wait time and reserve Fast Pass spots. Every park’s map is also located in the app giving you plenty of reliance on where to go and time efficiency.

The next thing you will need is a planner. You must figure out when specifically to go and do parks. We always wake up at around 8:00 AM and immediately go to the parks and get done with it as fast as we can. Afterward, we may come back and leisurely enjoy our evening at a pool or Disney Springs.

When Do We go to DisneyWorld?

The only times I have gone to Disney World was in January, August, and September. We have figured out it’s best when everyone has just started school, so not many people go to theme parks. I recommend a time that isn’t when kids are out of school. I recommend avoiding holidays like Halloween, Christmas, and President’s Day weekend because the park is extremely busy.

Disney in the winter isn’t bad. There wasn’t any snow or anything but Florida was in the 50s/60s, so we wore sweatshirts on some days, which might actually be perfect for a theme park. There were the same amount of tourists as in the fall. Overall if you hate to sweat and humidity, this is the time to go.

Who Will Enjoy this Experience?

Honestly, Disney World markets to children and it’s truly more of a children's place. Almost every ride is designed for children. Magic Kingdom will be the most entertaining for children since it's filled with classic cartoons, Disney princesses, and fantasy.

There are still more adult-like rides for parents to enjoy. Rides like Expedition Everest, Mission Space, and Rockin Roller Coaster are some more intense rides and provide you with joy and maybe for your kids too. Just don’t get sick on Mission Space, it’s really bad I should know.

Why Should You Go?

Disney World is just happy in general. Every time I go I’m happy despite not really finding the childish rides as entertaining anymore. Everything about the parks makes you want to smile and want to come back, which means they’ve nailed the marketing. I would like to go back and enjoy it some more if it wasn’t so pricey.

Disney World is Definitely the #1 theme park vacation to attend. Universal Studios may be cheaper and have better deals, but it is loaded with boring 3-D rides that just give you headaches. Disney gave us quality classic rides before 3-D was a thing.

Conclusion

Disney World may be good to go every few years. It is very relaxing and everything about it is stress-free. Disney’s main objective is to make Children happy and make adults happy about their purchase. There is so much to learn and see, so be prepared.
