Magic Kingdom
Where to stay
One of the best budget resorts to stay at in WDW. I stayed here on my Honeymoon which gave us access to the skyliner for two of the parks. This access made rope dropping easier for Epcot and Hollywood Studios!
Disney's Pop Century Resort
Another budget resort with great sports vibes! In the evenings the resort had events for families and children; when we were there it was s'mores and a movie by the pool night.
Disney's All-Star Sports Resort
Perfect for families with littles if you want a moderate resort
Disney's Port Orleans Resort - French Quarter
Another great budget option!
Disney's All-Star Movies Resort
With access to the Monorail it makes getting to Magic Kingdom and Epcot very easy! Recommended for adults, adults with school age kids, and teens. With access to Chief Mickey’s its perfect for your kids!
Disney's Contemporary Resort
Magic Kingdom Eats and Drinks
Other than Tiana’s this is one of the best places to get quick service beignets!
The Friar's Nook
Ate here on my honeymoon and it had the coolest atmosphere! Definitely book in advance because walk up dining is hard to get at this restaurant.
Be Our Guest Restaurant
Amazing hot dogs for a quick bite!
Casey's Corner
Epcot Eats and Drinks
The kiosks have some of the best wine and dessert!
Italy Pavilion
This place is great for a quick drink in the England Pavillion!
Rose & Crown Dining Room | Walt Disney World Resort
Animal Kingdom Eats and Drinks
A cute little get away with AC and good bites! My husband and I went before our son was born and they have the best mocktails (my opinion) and cocktails (my husbands opinion). If you are hungry get the garlic bread!
Nomad Lounge
Hollywood Studios Eats and Drinks
If you are a Star Wars fan or just want the experience of Galaxy’s Edge, this place is great for a quick bite and a drink! If you aren't a fan of alcohol or cannot have it they have great mocktails!
Oga's Cantina at the Walt Disney World Resort
One of the best places to eat of you want to go for a 50s car park vibe!
Sci-Fi Dine-In Theater Restaurant
Best menu item: cold brew coffee with cocoa puffs topping it. Available spiked or non-alcholic
Kat Saka's Kettle

Walt Disney World Resort near Orlando, Florida – Official Site
Closed for most of 2025 but amazing fun!
Big Thunder Mountain Railroad
Perfect for both little boys and girls, however there is much more of a selection for girls. Your son will be able to dress as a prince and get pixie dusted, however if you want something a little more than a prince costume I would recommend the barb...
Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutique at Magic Kingdom Park - Walt Disney World
Epcot
If you are at Epcot and have not been on this ride I recommend you go! It's perfect for single riders, adults, and families with small children. If you time it right you can even meet Figmet after the ride!
Journey into Imagination with Figment

Walt Disney World Resort near Orlando, Florida – Official Site
One of the best rides
Soarin' Around the World at EPCOT | Walt Disney World Resort
If the Flordia heat is getting to you, the drinking around the world is hitting, or if you just want a little touch of behind the scenes magic, this is a great ride to go on! This ride shows you everything that Disney uses in their food and how it is...

Animal Kingdom

Walt Disney World Resort near Orlando, Florida – Official Site
Very fun for all ages! Go multiple times if you can, you may get to see animals that you hadn't before.
Kilimanjaro Safaris
If you aren't that big of a fan of thrill rides and want a more laid back ride that is perfect for families, this is the one! It's a cool ‘dark’ water ride with lots of beautiful colors!
Na'vi River Journey
One of the most slept on shows! While it is geared toward kids when my husband and I went to Animal Kingdom we loved it and saw many adults without children watching the show too!
Finding Nemo: The Big Blue... and Beyond!
Hollywood Studios

Disney park essentials

AMACOOL Battery Operated Stroller Fan
Florida weather is so unpredictable, packing these in my bag to the park came in handy during a surprise downpour.
Cosowe Rain Ponchos Disposable for Adults Women, Clear Family Pack Raincoats with Hood Sleeves for Disney Travel
These are perfect for kids and adults. Magic Bands are so crucial when it comes to the parks.
Magic Band Protectors, Multi-Color Smart Watch Security Bands, Made for Fitbit Charge, Charge HR, Garmin Vivofit, Disney Magic Band 2.0 & More
Liquid IV saved my trip since it was so hot! I recommend the sugar-free peach flavor or golden cherry. You can get these in bulk on Amazon or at any store.

Comes in many colors!
TUMELLA Strongest Windproof Travel Umbrella (Compact, Superior & Beautiful), Small Strong but Light Portable and Automatic Folding Rain Umbrella, Durable Premium Grip, Fits Car & Backpack
These are great reusable water bottles if you want something quick to refill on the go! The only con with these ones is that they don't have straws but my Husband loved them.
Bulk Water Bottles Set of 8 – 10oz Multicolor Water Bottles for Kids and Adults – Leak Proof Water Bottles with Carry Strap – Square Reusable Water Bottles for Juice, Drinks – BPA-Free Dishwasher-Safe
While this is technically a diaper bag and changing table combo, I used it as a Disney bag! This comes in many colors and will hold your pins on it. There is a TON of storage inside for merch you buy to things that you are bringing to the parks.
