Best Months to Stay

[etwinchester]

Where can you find something that shows the best months to visit WDW?

I'm looking for the best months for cost, weather, crowds, etc...

We've always visited in March even as a child. I've never stayed onsite and was told that this is considered their PEAK season. We went in 2003 and the weather was great and so were the crowds. Now I'm afraid to visit during a different month.

What months have you gone and what was the weather and crowds like? Or, is their a website that posts this helpful information?

Well cost is easy, any time in the value season. Here is a link that shows historical crowd levels and the like.

As for the weather, Florida weather is pretty predictable, I have never gone searching for that

The links Aengus provided are good links for info. But my opinion weather-wise: October. It's slightly cooler than the baking hot months of May through September, but not too cold to swim usually, although it can get down into the 50's at night sometimes in mid to late October. Also, unless there's a hurricane blowing ashore, October tends to be one of the drier months of the year in Orlando. Crowds are less since school is in session. And you can usually find rooms at the value season rates at least some time in October.

our favorite month has always been November. Perfect 80 degree days and 60-ish nights. No rain. NO crowds. we're trying October this year.
