Affordable Walt Disney World Vacation - Helpful Tips On Where To Stay In Orlando
Thursday, April 30th, 2009Ian Wilkie asked:
The Walt Disney World was created in Florida in 1971, starting with the Magic Kingdom, and today it is among the top preferred holiday destinations, with most of the people who visit here doing their planning and reservations online through the Disney website or other companies offering competitive prices. Since the minimum time required to enjoy the entire Walt Disney World is at least a week, one can pick up a 6days, 7nights packages, each with its own share of facilities.
For those looking for a cheap Disney Vacation Club package, they can take the value package and for others there is the moderate and deluxe category of accommodation and attached amenities. There is also something called, magic your way deals, but these are available only in the Animal Kingdom lodge and in Wilderness lodge, so if you are ready to spend your days and night amidst animals and nature, this is perfect for you. Apart from these, there are the private villas at the Boardwalk, or resorts at old Key West to suit your tastes at crash prices during off season. They are all fully equipped with kitchens, dish washer and spacious bath areas. You can even make this your own unique discount Disney Vacation Club package.
The Saratoga Springs villa is situated across from downtown Disney World and is close to many shopping options and restaurants. The hill side, beautifully landscaped gardens and the springs themselves captivate your senses making you enjoy your holiday much more. As you make your way in your rented car or the shuttle you catch a glimpse of the looming Walt Disney tower that get you all excited and ready for some fun.
Make sure to pick up park entry passes at the resort at cheaper rates, else you will have to wait in line. If you have been reading about the Discovery Island, then head straight to Disney’s Animal Kingdom and The Tree of Life theme park to begin your joy ride. It is no ordinary wildlife park, here you can take safaris to watch animals in their habitats or enjoy river rafting for that rush. This is where you see the towering tall tree of life, from where you begin your Discovery Island trail. You can walk through the foliage, catch a glimpse or two of the exotic bird and feast your eyes on various other species of animals and birds. The Flame Tree Barbecue is popular dining areas in this part of the park. The decor of the place will be done to suit the theme of the park with murals of wildlife and nature.
After this you can watch the best musical of Finding Nemo in Dinoland USA, an almost real enacting of the characters in the movie by the same name. With colorful puppets and an outstanding performance, you will be transported into Nemo’s world for that 40 minute duration. Check your Disney World map to know when the shows are played so you can make it to them.

A Disney vacation aboard a Disney cruise ship has the potential of being one of the most memorable moments of your life. Almost nothing can compare to it in terms of non stop enjoyment and sheer fun. You will be amazed by the magic of the high seas and of exotic destinations and you will make a voyage that is going to stay in your memory forever.
A Disney cruise is not really dependant on your image of the dream vacation because if you go on a Disney cruise everything that you could wish for is available for you aboard the ships. So you make it yourself a dream vacation, because you have all the necessary means. You can be a child or an adult, it doesn’t really matter. You are guaranteed to find whatever you’re looking for onboard the Disney Cruise ships.
The oceanliners are nothing short of world class and they will provide you with very spacious staterooms, which are among the largest you’ll ever come across in this industry. The Disney touch is very obvious on the decor. This is the room which will be your home for the number of days in which the cruise takes place, so make sure you choose the one which suits you best, whether it’s an inside cabin or a room with a verandah.
The dining rooms are very original also, like anything that Disney represents. Three original themed restaurants wait you on each of the Disney cruise ships. If you choose the 7-days cruise, you will have the opportunity of dining in each one of those three restaurants at least once during your vacation. If you choose a 3-days cruise, you will dine in each restaurant once. If you want to go on a 4-days cruise you are going for, then you are going to do a repeat.
The age specific activities present on board of the Disney cruise ships are many and attractive. The children activities are everything a child could dream of, because after all making children happy is one of the things that Disney does best.
For children, there’s The Oceaneer club which is always a very good option. Also, they can choose to participate in different activities that are being held each day. A child can choose slipping and sliding down the chute into the Mickey’s Pool, splashing in Goofy’s Family Pool, or stretching for a good morning’s workout at Goofy’s Family Fitness.
Adult activities are plentiful, as well. The Cove Cafe is a good option for people aged 18+ to start their day with a specialty coffee. You can also swim in the adults’ pool, go to the Spa and end your day in a night club.
The itineraries for Disney cruises are varied. From the Eastern Caribbean to the Western Caribbean, from the Disney private paradise to the highly anticipated European itinerary, the offers list and is especially designed to please everyone.
You will have the pleasure of finding everything else you could wish for aboard these ships: cinemas, basketball courts, shuffleboard or ping pong playing places, Internet access for people who want to stay in touch with friends and family, everything is available.
As a conclusion, it doesn’t really matter what age, sex, ethnic group you are, there are no restrictions when it comes down to Disney vacation, and you will remember the voyage for the rest of your life.

Affordable Walt Disney World Vacation - How to Plan A Vacation Package The Family Can Afford
Saturday, April 25th, 2009Ian Wilkie asked:
People who have been making visits to Walt Disney World regularly, they are bound to have some valuable tips for others who are making their first trip to this fantasy land. If you were to ask your child where they want to go for the holidays, you will hear only Walt Disney World. This is how popular the Disney World in Florida is, more than the Hawaii beaches and the San Diego Sea World, people come to Disney World to unleash the child within them and enjoy themselves and get their money’s worth.
If your family has tiny tots, and children of varied age groups, make sure to take their interests into consideration while planning the trip. They will each want to visit a different part of the park that appeals to them, and so you better be prepared for some running around during your fun affordable Walt Disney World vacation.
If there are older kids, you can let them go on the roller coaster or other jungle rides on their own while you take the tiny ones to the Fantasyland or for some fun at Mickey’s Toontown Fair. They will get a chance to watch all their favorite cartoon characters come alive and play with them. Good opportunity to take photos. So you can preserve as fond memories. The important factor to note is that do not plan a holiday that is less than seven days minimum, else you won’t be able to take in all the sights and adventures on offer.
A place so vast, it will blow you away the minute you cross the entrance, the Disney World is every person’s dream come true. And better yet, if you can grab a few discounts or park entry passes at cheaper prices. Think ahead of time, you can obtain everything at a lower price than what is offered inside the park, making it possible for those luxurious indulges inside the park. Plan the tour in such a way that you go through Adventureland, Frontierland, Liberty Square to the Main Street USA where you can pause to indulge in some shopping. After this, walk along to Mickey’s Toontown fair and in case your child enjoys observing the sky or reading about rockets, he will enjoy the sights on offer in the Tomorrow land.
But most of the rides have a long waiting line, and if you want to skip this, you need to come ahead of time to see if you can grab couple of Fast Passes. This pass will allow you to reserve a place, and come back when the waiting time mentioned on the ticket is up. In case you have a senior person or someone bound to a wheelchair, make sure you have kept that in mind while booking the ride. All the rides are wheelchair friendly and if not, the attendants will help get that member seated on the ride. So, the next time you plan on taking an affordable Disney vacation, keep these in mind.

My wife and I want to take our 4 year old to Disney World and stay at a Disney resort (Animal Kingdom) this summer. Is there a good website besides Disney that has deals on this type trip?

Thursday, April 23rd, 2009Affordable Walt Disney World Vacation - How To Get Discounts On Vacation Packages
Thursday, April 23rd, 2009Ian Wilkie asked:
While planning a holiday to the mountains or maybe a ski resort, we look for holiday packages that will give us the flexibility to go when we feel like it. We don’t want to be worrying about availability of rooms or hotels. This adds to the headaches in planning a holiday and making the trip happen at a time when it is suitable for us.
It is for this purpose that the Walt Disney World has come up wit the discount Disney vacation club. This is basically a time share holiday system wherein a person makes a one time payment on the club and whenever they wish to use, it is available to them. These memberships are based on the vacation points earned by you during the year and you get to choose the duration, time and what kind of place you are looking for. You can thereby enjoying premium benefits by being a Disney vacation club member and get discounts on park tickets, restaurant bills and at times free entry for your children. This makes your holiday perfect and keeps away all worries and panic attacks.
You also have the option of choosing one of the many private villas and resorts available to stay in. These are rented out by the owners if they are available for the duration you have zeroed in on. Based on your budget and size of your group, you can choose a place that fits your bill and enjoy the lap of luxury. The Orlando vacation will be fun and not too heavy on your wallet as well. Since all villas are close to the Walt Disney Park, you can spend your free time away from crowds and make sure to get the best deals in any of the four theme parks, shopping arcades and even the spas and golf clubs in Orlando area.
If you are fond of animated movies made by Walt Disney, you will find a place filled with characters and goodies from that movie. You can even get good discounts if you are smart, and reach a counter ahead of time or during the special hours. Since everything from lockers to first aid help is available within the Disney World, your discount Disney vacation club package will leave you smiling.
Don’t worry about how your old mother will travel within the park, she can ride on a wheelchair and enjoy every single thing you are visiting. And in case you have spent all your money and need to draw more, there are plenty of ATM’s located strategically for easy access by all visitors to the park. For a person with a pet, which they couldn’t leave with a friend, there is a kennel for your dog to spend his day in while you explore the park. He will be taken care off, fed and pampered while you indulge yourself in the rides and shops available. It’s almost like they have thought of everything when creating the Disney World in Florida.
