A lot of your advice (as I'm sure you intend) is aimed at travelling, not specifically Disney travelling, which I really appreciate. Your last point really hit home for me. A few years ago, I started planning a trip to the UK for my husband and me. I looked at all kinds of travel sites, KZbin channels, etc., and bugged my husband constantly for information about what he was interested in seeing or doing. After several months, I narrowed our trip to just London and a few day trips. After a few months more, I narrowed it down to London. I have no regrets about being so specific--the plans catered exactly to what we wanted to experience. It's the same with a Disney trip. Get specific. Have certain goals in mind, and be loose with the rest. I'm currently planning a family trip for my sisters and their families to WDW, and nailing down what it is we want to do. Part of it will be the nostalgia of sharing with the little ones the joy our parents found in certain attractions, and some of it will be making our own memories with them. My motto (stolen from Rick Steves) is "Expect you will return."

Love these tips. I think to add on I would just say, be willing to split up. Not everyone traveling together has to do the same things as a group. I find it less stressful when you are willing tonpart feom your group from time to time. Not only does it all each person to get what they want from the trip, but prevents possible conflicts later in the trip. Of course i would add, try to still be in pairs for safety, but if you can't, try to keep contact from time to time.

All of your tips were great 👏🏾👏🏾 Especially the money part. Disney is VERY overpriced for legit everything and if you can’t accept that-do NOT go. But the sooner you do accept it-you can actually start to enjoy your time there. Also bonus tip: if you/your family are not physically active on a daily basis, I’d highly recommend getting used to walking a few miles a day leading up to your trip. There is a physical toll to being in the WDW parks and I’m not even talking about the heat. Great video 🖤

Thanks! Yeah, I understand the frustration when it comes to thinkers being overpriced and even being taken aback by the price of something every now and again... but for some people it's like their main focus is the cost of everything and that's not a good way to go. Great tip! Definitely something I'm going to be talking about in the future too 'cause it's so important! 😀

it is a beautiful day, because any day you get to walk from DHS to almost EPCOT, and back, is beautiful.

I always tell people when they go you're going to get into a fight with your family at some point, just roll with it and know it's not the end of the world.

I love the fact that you tell us what you think especially about multipass and that you don't have to spend all day on your phone. I've just got a question l get motion sickness when I travel and l love going on the rides so l use the travel nausea band's that you put on your wrist my question is that I've heard some of the rides have metal detectors.
@2foolishmortals2 ай бұрын
Walt Disney World does not have any metal detectors for attractions. Universal Orlando DOES have metal detectors for attractions, but it is only a select few. You should be good with your SeaBands though as you're fine with an Apple Watch, for example. Just let the Team Members know.

May be controversial, but I would submit that not all families are built to go to Disney (hopefully they know who they are😂). I have a friend who would 100% keep that cranky kid in the park from opening to close because she wants the most out of every dollar she pays for the tickets. And I agree that they are expensive. To some degree, I've come to believe Disney is not only for the people that can afford the luxury of high-priced tickets, it's also for the physically and mentally hardy. The summers are brutal, the miles pile up on your feet, lines can be outrageous, etc, etc...So if finances and stamina don't align, like the vid says, be realistic.

Your advice was nothing short of brilliant. Thank you. I especially enjoyed your walk from the Boardwalk (our favorite WDW resort) to the Studios. I have made that walk many times at the end of they day, when I needed time to de-stress and get away from the crowds. Nothing beats it!
