Florida Discount Disney – When to Travel and What to visit

If you are planning you first trip to Disneyworld, a lot of people are amazed at how many choices are there and get confused very easily. There are lot of choices on places to visit, dine, stay etc. There are only 4 Disney Theme Parks, 2 water parks, 28 hotels on the Disney World property, and 30 hotels just outside the Disney gate and 6 more within 5 miles of Walt Disney World.

When to Travel Walt Disney World
Normally, the first decision you have to make is when you want to travel. My suggestion is not to go during a Holiday season. Try to take some vacation for you and kids and go there on a off season time. You could easily convince your kid’s school and teacher by telling them that your kid will write a journal on his/her experience to the Animal Kingdom or the Kennedy Space Center.

Try to stay away from Spring Break time which would be April. Also avoid June, July and August (summer vacation) and all other holidays. This will reduce the cost of your vacation package a lot and also you can avoid the big crowds. Best times to go probably are May, early September. October and November are good times to go if there are no storms. Disney World theme Parks do have reduced hours during these months but the reduced crowds will be well worth it!

What to visit at Walt Disney World
Like I mentioned earlier, there are 4 major theme parks, Downtown Disney, Disney Wide World of Sports Complex and 2 water parks.
As you plan your choices of vacation packages for Disney World you will need to read up on the following theme parks:

• Magic Kingdom
• Animal Kingdom
• MGM Studios
• Epcot Center
• The water parks (Typhoon Lagoon and Blizzard Beach)

For teens: Epcot's Test tracks they get to test-drive real GM cars!! Or Innovations where they will have access to hands on time with the entire latest and greatest HIGH tech products.

Animal Kingdoms Kali River Rapids with 12 people in a circular raft and white water rapids! If your teens are into water sports find out when the water parks have body surfing and surfing lessons!

Finally, for all those over 12, the mouse boats at the Disney hotels Seven Seas Lagoon are awesome! Anyone over 12 and 5 feet tall can rent their own 1 and 2 person speed boats for an hour!

Preschoolers will love Magic Kingdom: Mickey's toontown, and the many adventures of Winnie the Pooh just to name a couple. MGM studios Bear in the Big Blue House and the Voyage of the little mermaid!

A bit older children will love Animal Kingdom's "It's tough to be a bug" and the Kilimanjaro Safari.
