food IS a theme park
Happy Easter weekend to those who celebrate! To everyone else, happy spring!
S’mores Cake
Now we’ve already made our way around Disney World, trying out some Easter and spring snacks, along the way PLUS we’ve seen the Easter egg displays at the hotel. This week, we also revisited a snack in Magic Kingdom that is MUCH better now. And, as always, we’ve been keeping an eye on Disney World restaurant menus, and we’ve got some changes to share with you.
Disney World is currently preparing for numerous new experiences in the coming years and refurbishing current attractions. Brand-new lands, including Pueblo Esperanza, Monsters, Inc. Land, and Villains Land will be coming. Plus, new lounges like the GEO-82 lounge in EPCOT will be opening, and new shows such as “Zootopia: Better Zoogether!” in Disney’s Animal Kingdom will be debuting.
Construction Walls featuring Artwork for Tropical Americas
As well, Test Track, Big Thunder Mountain, and Buzz Lightyear’s Space Ranger Spin will also be refreshed. While we are excited about new openings and refreshed attractions, these updates also mean there will be closures that could impact your trip.
Every week, we report the average Disney World wait times in every park so that you can be prepared for your next trip to Orlando!
Magic Kingdom
With Easter upon us, knowing what the weekly average wait times are for rides can make or break your upcoming trip. If you’re heading to the parks soon, we’ve got all the info you need to know! This week, wait times INCREASED at Disney World, with nearly every ride on property seeing an increase, including an 80-minute average wait for Rise of the Resistance, the resort’s busiest ride.
Disney World has got some MAJOR secrets they’ve been hiding from you!
Did you know these secrets?
New character meet and greets that are totally free, how to walk up and get a table at the hottest restaurants, and how to get some seriously secret discounts — Disney World can sometimes play things too close to the vest. We’re here to change that. Get ready to learn about some juicy Disney secrets that you can take advantage of during your next visit!
Easter is this weekend, and Disney World, for lack of a better term, is hopping!
Hollywood Studios Crowds
There are tons of special treats to try out when you’re in the parks this weekend to celebrate. You can enjoy the Easter Parade and say hello to Mr. and Mrs. Easter Bunny in Magic Kingdom, and don’t forget to check out the Easter Egg displays around Disney World Hotels! However, if you were hoping to save some time in line this weekend, we’ve got some bad news.
Let’s be real — Disney World is magical, but the lines? Yeah, not so much….
Magic Kingdom
After way too many trips (and more Mickey pretzels than we’d like to admit), we’ve tested every ride strategy out there. Some flopped. But a few? Total game-changers! Here are the 3 ride hacks that actually work for us every single time — no Lighting Lanes required.
When you’re ballin’ on a budget, it can be difficult to find cheap, FILLING meals around Disney World.
Disney’s Animal Kingdom
Sometimes, you have to get creative. Just because something isn’t listed as such doesn’t mean you can’t have it as a meal around the parks — including snacks, sides, and kids meals too. Animal Kingdom is full of hidden gems that are perfect for a quick, cheap meal and we’re heading to one of our favorite spots to check one out!
Who’s ready for the cutest news to make your day even better?
A group of zebras is called a dazzle!
Animal Kingdom is home to the most incredible animals that just make our hearts flutter (because who doesn’t love an adorable zebra frolicking around or a furry little otter?) And yesterday, while onboard Kilimanjaro Safaris, we met a new friend who has stolen our hearts. Here’s a look!
Disney’s Animal Kingdom is an excellent park for those looking to have a more chill Disney day. It often doesn’t have the same crowds that your Magic Kingdom and Hollywood Studios have. Plus, Animal Kingdom has something that no other park has — you get to look at animals!
Tree of Life
Animal Kingdom is currently undergoing one of the biggest transformations in the parks history, and Disney fans are patiently waiting for the changes coming to the park (we’re gonna have to wait a while). The good thing is that Animal Kingdom has so much more to offer than just it’s rides — as much as we love Flight of Passage! Well, we have some newcomers at the park — and you’re going to want to see these latest additions because they’re adorable!
