food IS a theme park
You probably read this title and wondered: “Why in the world would I want to avoid Magic Kingdom?!”
Magic Kingdom
There is so much to do in the original Disney World theme park — meet tons of characters, see the Festival of Fantasy parade, ride the brand new TRON Lightcycle / Run, and eat inside Cinderella Castle. So why are we saying that you should avoid Magic Kingdom right now? The answer is simple — a major jump in wait times.
Find out WHERE you can eat with the Disney Dining Plan, the big new announcements about Tiana’s Bayou Adventure and the best new snacks in Disney World.

Here we go again…it’s time to apologize to your wallets once again!
A new collection? Yes, please!
An expensive souvenir in Magic Kingdom? It may have tempted you. A huge Disney sale online? Uh oh, now you’re in trouble. If you’re a Disney fan, you might be a sucker for some good Disney merch (we’ve all been there!) and now there’s even MORE to choose from!
Today, we’re talking about Disney World’s CHEAPEST hotels. (You hear that? It’s your wallet THANKING you.)
Disney’s All Star Music Resort
Let’s find out if “affordability” also means a “sacrifice of quality” – here on DFB Guide. [Read more…]
We’ve all been there — you’re in Disney’s Hollywood Studios and you are just VERY overwhelmed.
Hollywood Studios
Hot, sweaty, and stressed while trying to navigate the park? We experience that almost every day. Been waiting in line for hours at Rise of the Resistance? We bet those feet hurt. That’s why we’re here to share some good (and some not so good) news about Hollywood Studios!
Ahhhh Disney World, we love you so!
Welcome to Walt Disney World!
There are many exciting changes coming including the return of the Disney Dining Plan, Genie+ changes, and Park Passes are disappearing for many, but one thing remains the same — LONG wait times. However, something unexpected just happened at the most popular attraction in ALL of Disney World!
Planning a Disney World trip? We know — there’s a LOT that goes into it!
EPCOT
You have to pick dates to take a trip, book a hotel, buy tickets and make park pass reservations, decide if you want to buy Genie+, and choose how you’re going to get to Disney World. It can be super overwhelming, but it can also be fun! So we’re here to show you 4 exciting things that are changing at Disney World during June!
Sure, the Disney World theme parks are fun…but the HOTELS are where it’s at!
Polynesian Village Resort
Staying at a Disney World hotel allows you to get into the parks early and stay late (and these perks have been extended through 2024!) and they provide free transportation to the parks. Not only that, but many have restaurants that are destinations on their own, and new upgrades are being added constantly. Now, it looks like the booking process for Disney World hotels will be getting a major overhaul!
Disney World is changing in ways that you may not expect.
Magic Kingdom Crowds in May 2023
Disney recently had its Q2 Earnings Call where we got to learn more about what demand is like for Disney+ and the Disney theme parks. During the call, Disney did mention that demand for the parks was going down now that the 50th anniversary is over which could explain the strange crowd patterns and lower Genie+ prices during a typically busy time of year. It looks like this could also be impacting the wait times — let’s take a look!
Have you heard the news?
Japan pavilion
No, we’re not talking about the Disney Dining Plan’s return and the Genie+ changes. Or the fact that most visitors won’t need park pass reservations in 2024. We’re talking about the BRAND NEW restaurant that was just announced for Disney World!
