Disney Vacation

A Disney vacation is an almost must-do for any family, but is not exclusive to families, as couple and singles have an abundance of things do to at Walt Disney World as well. Walt Disney built Disneyland in California after many successes in the film industry. Disneyland outdid anything like it at the time, and other theme parks have been trying to catch up ever since. Walt finally outdid himself when he built Disney World, which has become today the most incredible complex of theme parks, resorts, and entertainment attractions in the world.

Walt Disney World near Orlando, Florida, is an sprawling nearly fifty square mile compound that is home to four theme parks and several great resorts. The Magic Kingdom (modeled after its predecessor, Disneyland), Epcot, Disney MGM Studios, and the Animal Kingdom are the pillars of Walt Disney World. Within the parks you can go on breathtaking thrill rides, imaginative tours of educational and cultural exhibits, and actual safaris on a 500 acre game reserve. In the Disney tradition of excellence, no detail has been spared in any of the theme parks.

Your Disney vacation can start and finish within the confines of the Park, as Disney operates several theme resorts on the property. Fort Wilderness for instance, has a lodge reminiscent of lodges at Yellowstone Park, with adjacent cabins and a campground. The Yacht Club resort sits on a marina and is styled after New England sea cottages, complete with hardwood floors and wicker furniture. Port Orleans, Old Key West, and the Caribbean resort have themes similar to their names. That is not all. Each resort is surrounded by golf courses, pools, play grounds, and beautiful landscaping.

A Disney Vacation for Everyone
Most people think of kids when they think Disney vacation. Well, Walt Disney World has six championship golf courses. Three water parks, dozens of swimming pools, health spas, lounges, and exciting night life at Pleasure Island in Downtown Disney. But face it, adults like the thrill rides just as much as the kids--just look at their faces as they get off the rides.

Disney has done everything in its power to accommodate everyone. They offer special discounts for members of the military, government personnel, teachers, and various other groups. Most all of their facilities are handicap accessible, and there is a hospital on the premises. Disney is known for its great security, safe environment, and excellent customer service. A Disney vacation is a stress free vacation.

When planning a Disney vacation, note that there are advantages to staying within the boundaries of the Park. To begin with, all of Disney's resorts are top notch and have a specific imaginative theme. You can walk out of your hotel room and get right on a Monorail, bus, water taxi, or ferry, and be at one of the them parks within minutes. There is no waiting in traffic trying to enter the park. Special E-ticket nights, and morning head starts are given to those people staying at the resorts as well. Other hotel operators, like Wyndham have hotels inside the park as well, and the rates may be less expensive.

Your Disney Vacation
Maybe you have been dreaming of a Disney vacation for awhile now, but are afraid you can't afford it. Maybe you want to stay at one of the Disney Resorts inside the Park, but are afraid it will cost you an outrageous amount. Would you be surprised to learn you can get Disney resort rooms as early as next month for under $80 a night? Maybe it can be affordable.

There are guides you can purchase online with a wealth of insider information that will save you money. You want to be careful where you are getting your information, though. Make sure you are dealing with somebody who doesn't have a vested interest. You can get deep discounts on park passes, hotels, airfares, as well as restaurant vouchers and free passes to shows if you play your cards right.
