Planning your trip to Disney World Florida

Visiting Disney World in Florida can be a magical experience for people of all ages. Disney World is a popular vacation destination located in Florida. It is made up of four theme parks: Magic Kingdom, Epcot, Hollywood Studios, and Animal Kingdom, as well as two water parks: Typhoon Lagoon and Blizzard Beach.Each park offers a unique experience, with a variety of rides, shows, and attractions to suit different interests.

Before you go, it's a good idea to plan out your trip. Decide which parks you want to visit and when, and make sure to check the park hours and show schedules in advance. You can also make dining reservations, which is highly recommended, especially if you want to eat at one of the more popular restaurants. You can book these 60 days in advance, using the early reservations made sure we got to eat all the themed restaurants that we wanted to.

When you're at the parks, you can take advantage of the FastPass+ system, which allows you to reserve access to some of the most popular attractions in advance. This will save you time waiting in line, so you can make the most of your day. If this isn't in your budget, I would recommend getting to the park at 'rope drop' and getting on some early, queue free rides.

Wear comfortable shoes (bring plasters!)  and bring a refillable water bottle, as the parks can get quite hot, and you'll be doing a lot of walking (so much walking!!)

The Magic Kingdom is Disney World's flagship park and it is the most popular park. It is home to classic Disney attractions such as Space Mountain, Pirates of the Caribbean, and the Haunted Mansion, as well as parades and fireworks shows. Cinderella's Castle is the iconic centerpiece of the park and serves as the backdrop for the nightly fireworks show. I actually shed a tear the first time I saw this live (shh.. tell anyone).

EPCOT is home to two sections: Future World and World Showcase. Future World is an exploration of technology and innovation, while World Showcase features pavilions dedicated to different countries and cultures, each with their own food, drink, and entertainment.

Disney's Hollywood Studios is the place to go for a taste of the movies, with attractions such as the Twilight Zone Tower of Terror, Rock 'n' Roller Coaster, and the Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge land. Personally, I think Epcot is hugely underrated. It has so many different attractions and incredible places to eat. 

Hollywood Studios features attractions and live shows based on popular movies and franchises, such as Star Wars, Toy Story, and The Muppets. It also features a replica of the Hollywood Boulevard from the 1930s, complete with themed shops and restaurants. The park first opened in 1989 as Disney-MGM Studios. I defy you not tot to shiver and stand to attention when the stormtroopers march through the park. The shows here are fantastic, make sure you allow time to fit them in.

Finally, Disney's Animal Kingdom is a combination of a theme park and a zoo. It features attractions such as the Kilimanjaro Safaris, Expedition Everest, and Pandora- The World of Avatar. Don't believe the ride attendants if they tell you there are no 'drops' on Expedition Everest-I think my stomach is still there 3 years later!

In addition to the theme parks, Disney World is also home to two water parks, Blizzard Beach and Typhoon Lagoon, which are great options for a break from the heat or a fun family day out.

In summary, Disney World in Florida is a must-visit destination for anyone who loves theme parks and Disney. With so many things to see and do, you'll want to plan your trip carefully to make the most of your time there. With a little bit of planning and preparation, your trip to Disney World will be a magical and unforgettable experience.
