I'm so sad Maelstorm is being replaced with Frozen!!! But knowing how amazing the imagineers are, it will be good!!! I'll be going in 7 weeks for a week!!! I love Disney. I went last summer for my birthday!!!
I think my favourite on property place to eat is Via Napoli in the Italy pavilion around the world showcase in Epcot! The pizza is all handmade from scratch, cooked in one of three wood fired ovens and apparently uses all authentic ingredients from Italy. The food is absolutely phenomenal in my opinion and the restaurant is beautiful. From my experience the food is middle range in terms of expenses but it of course depends how much you eat and I think that it is entirely worth it. If you like Italian food then I would seriously recommend checking out this place :D you can book but my family of 5 have been able to turn up during the day and be seated in about half an hour, there isn't a huge waiting area but usually we'll leave my dad with the buzzer and look around the shops :') poor dad :p
Thank you so much for this! I'm hoping to go to Disney World sometime next year and I haven't been in over 15 years!!!!! Videos like this are so helpful. I'm actually tearing up in anticipation.
we love the character breakfast buffets, magic kingdoms crystal palace with pooh and friends is awesome! also the character breakfast at tusker house in animal kingdom.the lilo and stitch breakfast at the polynesian is fun!
You are such a cute couple! I've been going to WDW since 1982......still loving it after all these years! My grown up kids feel the same way too. We always find something new to do because the parks are always evolving........cannot wait to see Avatar Land at AK.
My perfect Disney day would be eating at Akershus, having cheesy popcorn from Main Street Confectionary, riding Tower of Terror, and watching Fantasmic :D
Omg Disney is my all time favorite place to go. I'm going in 2 weeks for my 15th time with my school and I never get bored of it!! (I'm only 14 and I went 4 times in one year so we're obsessed to) 😂😍😍😍
I have a 3 year old sister and in Hollywood Studios, don't judge me, but Hollywood & Vine during the Disney Jr time of the best breakfast buffet. I am not a breakfast sort of person, but OH MY GOD IT'S SO GOOD! I don't mind the characters because I am immune to Disney Jr.
I'm going to Disney World next spring break for a school trip and my band is performing on main streat. I'm so excited and this video will definetly help me with the parks since this will be my first time going (:
This is awesome! I love Disney! So next time I go, I'm coming back to this video because a lot of the things you mentioned are new since I've been there! So thank you! :)
I'm also the person in my family where people ask me what to do at Disney because its my most favourite thing ever LOL my favourite deluxe is Animal Kingdom-Jambo House!! i stayed there the first time i went and absolutely LOVED it! i once road Big Thunder Mountain during the fireworks and IT WAS SO MAGICAL, i highly recommend doing that if you can! (I'm going to DW for my birthday in April so I'm PUMPED)
Going to Disney in the summer! I'm so excited!! My perfect Disney day: Restaurant: Boma for dinner Ride: Tower of Terror Snack: an All American Sundae from Plaza Ice Cream Parlour on Main Street as I watch... Show: MK nighttime shows (MSEP, Celebrate the Magic, Wishes)
I'm getting married next month and me and hubby are honeymooning at Disney world. It's the first time for both of us and we're staying at the port Orleans French quarter resort. We're so excited!!!!!!!
Hey Joey! I just realized I wasn't subscribed to your channel so I'm changing that now. Haha love this video. Super informative, I'm gonna have to point people to this next time I get asked all these questions!
I went to sweet spills...so good. Their slushes were amazing. You'll end up spending $3.99- 5.99 on a cookie or cupcake. The treats are really big, so share.
I got stuck in the final room on my senior trip. My friend was a few boats up and she dropped her cell phone in the water and they were trying to see if they could find it. I didn't forgive her for it. Still tease her about it today.
Saints_Ghost It is really amazing. It has an amazing lobby. I had a toddler who we got a red magic band, but when she got there she wanted a yellow band and the person at the desk gladly changed her color. The gift shop was amazing and had a fabulous view. It's really unexplainable.
Hi just found your vlogs and loving them so far but I do have a question about the DCP. How many hours does Disney ask you to work a week? Keep up the good work 😀
You guys left out pizza planet!! I don't know why, but that place is perfect, comes straight out of the movie, also the pizza, and other food it sooooo good!!!
Hi there, we are ( Family of 4) going WDW, next wee, take notes from your video and let you know how much it help us. you have very good info seems like... Thanks.. Ravi
Hello! I'm a new follower (planning our family Disney trip Sept 2016). LOVE this video. I found it extremely helpful. I have a question though, and I apologize if you have already answered this. But here's my question, do you recommend the meal plan or is it cheaper to pay for meals while you're there? We are a family of 5 (me, my husband, 3 sons ages 8, 5, and almost 2 at time of the trip). I don't want to waste money on a meal plan, but if it's cheaper to do so, then I definitely want to take advantage of it. Any advice is helpful and appreciated =)
I actually did get stuck in finnall space in its a small world!!!!! For 15 mins Same on a lot of other rides I was unlucky to get stuck on so many rides!
I think it's a little misleading to say you "might save a little bit of money" staying off property. We've spent less on our entire vacation (by renting a house) than we would have on just a room at Disney…And that's with a Value resort (for 5 - 6 ppl) And being someone who stayed on property over 20 times as a kid & teenager I didn't lose any magic… I actually get more because we can afford to go every year staying off property. So I think it really depends on your personal budget and what you want to do. You can also visit the Disney hotels and eat at them and enjoy some of what they have to offer without staying there… Still like your video. Just sharing a different perspective! I would say though if it's your only Disney vaca for a long time and you don't have the ability to go every year staying on property might be something worth saving for. I just don't want anyone to think they shouldn't go to WDW because they can't stay on property. You will still have the BEST VACA EVER! And experience TONS of magic (at a fraction of the cost)!
It is our personal opinion and isn't misleading at all. There will always be cheaper places to stay than Disney. And staying at Disney is always going to have those extra pieces of magic that you can't ever get staying off property. We have stayed on and off property numerous times and like both for various reasons... And once again this video like we stated at the end and the beginning is "our personal opinion". But regardless, going to Disney in my opinion = the best vacation ever 👍🏻
Oh I know it's just your opinion. You seem a little offended and that really wasn't my goal… I just wanted to share another opinion for anyone who might be looking around UA-cam for other options for a Disney vacation.
