Hello All
We are a family of 4.
We did some last min stuff and we are leaving for Orlando tomorrow morning. We are driving. Hotel is already booked. The hotel has kitchenette with a stove.
DH just wanted to get out house and do something with the family. I have DS 13 and 3.
We are on a BUDGET!!!!!!!!! But we would like to do only 2Disney parks. Both of my DS love science and hand on stuff. They love to run around.
Any advice on things! What not to do? Cash or charge ?
Cheap eats?
The best place to buy tickets.
We are early birds so we don’t mind getting up.
Quick lowdown on the good bad and ugly.
Sorry someone just suggested this forum to me.

Since you're kids are hands-on maybe just do one park and then DisneyQuest?

You are going to be there on some of the BUSIEST days of the year. Get the parks and get there early. It is not unusual for them to close the parks to guests by around 10AM and if you aren't staying on property, you will be the first to be turned away. MK is the classic park but Epcot and AK will be the best for science and hands on. I wouldn't miss MK though if you have never been.

Brings snacks or a light lunch with you. No glass containers or rolling coolers. If you leave, you probably won't get back into the park due to the crowds.

Good luck!

Go to Epcot. My kids fave park.

If I had to pick only 1 park, I'd go to Epcot. It's our favorite! Be aware, though, even buying tickets for one day to one park are going to be expensive...well over $70 a person.

For 3 adults and one child it will run you $355.73 tax included for one day at a park.
