I’m going to sound a little crazy here but in the last 3 years I have been to Walt Disney World 8 times and I already have trips 9 and 10 scheduled. I will be the first person to admit that it’s a lot, but there’s a few reasons I keep going back and a few things I do that make each stay a unique adventure.
Stay at different resorts:
Did you know that Walt Disney World offers multiple options for accommodations across all budgets? From highly themed Value Resorts to refined, elegant Deluxe Resorts there is something for everyone at every price point. I have favorite resorts in all categories, and love trying out a new resort every time I go. Of those 8 trips, I’ve only stayed at the same resort twice (because no matter where I stay Port Orleans-French Quarter will always have my heart). By varying my resort choice I have gotten to experience different food, entertainment, pools and other recreation before I even leave my resort. There’s always the option to do a split stay too, try 2 resorts during your Walt Disney World vacation! I know my clients like to stay Value for a day or two while they explore the parks, then relax at a Deluxe resort while they recover from all that walking.
Travel at Different Times of the Year:
No matter when you go to Walt Disney World, the main mouse is always bringing the magic, but certain times of the year have extra magical touches for your enjoyment. These touches range from seasonal treats to decor and merchandise. Epcot is constantly changing as they celebrate four different festivals throughout the year: International Festival of the Arts, International Flower and Garden Festival, International Food and Wine Festival, and the International Festival of the Holidays. With different food booths, activities, and scavenger hunts there’s always something new to do. Periodically throughout the year, Walt Disney World hosts special After Hours events. These ticketed events allow you to explore the parks with low crowds and free snacks; sometimes these events will have a theme! Don’t forget about the holiday parties in the Magic Kingdom either. Mickey’s Not So Scary Halloween Party and Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party are great ways to see a different side of the Magic Kingdom.
Try new Restaurants:
With over 200 places to eat there is no shortage of new offerings at Walt Disney World. Try a new full service restaurant or a limited time offering at a quick service! If you’re looking to try new to you foods, check out the full service options in the World Showcase, or head over to Animal Kingdom Lodge for food with an African Flair. Don’t miss out on seasonal offerings at the churro cart or out of this world eats in Star War’s: Galaxy’s Edge
Go with different people
In those 8 trips, I have gone with my husband and kids, my extended family, just my mom, and just my best friend. Each time I’ve gotten to enjoy unique offerings or new to me rides because of the party I was with. Book a girls trip, a solo trip, a trip with your partner, a multi-generational trip. Any way you do it you’re bound to have a magical time!
