Share your Disneyworld Tips - Please!

Wondering if you had any tips or advice about navigating the parks or general tidbits that you might find helpful. Like, someone told me to skip MK when it's extra magic hours because it the most crowded on those days.

Absolutely skip the parks when they are having MORNING extra magic hours. I don't really notice a difference when there are evening extra magic hours.

You can avoid some of the crowds by dining at unusual hours. Most people will eat lunch between 12-2 - while people are eating, the lines aren't as bad.

During the parades is a great time to go on rides.....as long as they are far away from where the parade is.


Make sure to take breaks. Nothing will ruin your vacation more than being too exhausted to enjoy it.

Enjoy!!!

I would take advantage of the Fastpass available at some of the major attrations. It cuts down on much of the wait time and they give you an hour window to return. Worth it!

Take a look at this website. I used it before I went to Disney and found it to be helpful.

I was going to ask this as well. We are going to disney in November and I have so many questions. What are some of the better restaurants? Should I bring my own stroller or rent one from there? I am thinking my 6 year old might get tired as well so maybe renting a double stroller from Disney is an option? Any tips would be greatly appreciated!

I totally agree with all of the above.

Schedule in breaks. Dine early or late.

There are entire message board threads about bringing vs. renting strollers. I'd check them out. I don't have kids, so it's hard to say.

learn how the fastpass system works and make good use of it!

Avoid the morning EMH park like the plague.

November is one of my favorite times to go. You'll either be in Christmas or Food and Wine. What are your dates?

Yup. it runs through Nov 13th. If you'll be there on the 1st, you can catch the Halloween party as well, If you're there Nov 8th, you can catch the Christmas party. if you're there November 10th, well that's the start of Osbourne! SO many amazing choices, events. That's really cool. maybe I should go the beginning of November and get Halloween AND Christmas (we're doing Christmas this year and Halloween/FW next). The only thing you miss is holidays around the world and CP
