Say money was no object. Neither was time. Now tell me about your family's all time favorite trip. Where would you stay? Where would you eat? How many days would you do each park?
 
It wouldn't be all that crazy for us. Probably about two weeks with Waters Parks and More tickets so we could just do whatever we wanted . Probably lots of dropping into the parks when we wanted. Definitely a club level room at a monorail resort.

Having reduced lines or all of the extras and assorted ADRs would ALWAYS make a trip for me!
 
My trip of a lifetime wouldn't be to Disney - it'd be hunting in Africa :)
 
I'd love to do a land/sea cruise of Europe from Great Britain down to the Mediterranean. Take about 2 months and stay in nice places. Ah, why stop there. Throw in New Zealand and Australia while I'm at it.
 

If it had to be a 'Disney' vacation we'd go to Florida for a month. The first week we'd do some non-Disney things. Sea World, Universal, Bush Gardens any other sights I could think of in the area (haven't looked to be honest). We'd spend the next two weeks at Disney, probably a 3 bedroom grand villa at Bay Lake Tower. 1 day at each waterpark, 1 day at Hollywood Studios, 1 day at Animal Kingdom, 2 days at Epcot and 3 days at Magic Kingdom. I'd spend two days resort hopping, just checking them out and their activities (pony rides and Chip and Dale campfire at Fort Wilderness, horse drawn carriage ride down the river at POR, ect) We'd do a day at Downtown Disney and the Boardwalk, maybe some mini golf. Just those little 'extras' on Disney property. And two relaxing days at BLT, mixed in the middle. Then we would spend a week at the beach because you need a week of relaxation after Disney LOL my family says good things about Cocoa Beach so we'd try that.

Honestly, now that I think about it if money and time were no option I'd like to take some time to drive DOWN to Disney and just explore several places across the country we'd like to see, see some out of state family, ect. We'd rent an RV or car or something though because I'd want to fly home ;)
 
If money were no object, and I could get permission, and I could find a babysitter....St. Kilda.
 
7 days in California for Disneyland and a few outside pursuits, the 15 night Panama Canal DCL cruise in the Walt Disney suite, followed by at least two weeks in a BLT grand villa (we have proud annual passes), leaving immediately on the Adventures by Disney tour of Scotland. Then sail back on a transatlantic crossing on, yup, you guessed it, a DCL cruise!
 
If it's Disney/Orlando, we'd start the week prior to Thanksgiving in a 1 bedroom villa at Bay Lake Tower (Theme Park View). We'd spend the week touring the parks and having character meals.

Then for Thanksgiving week, we'd board the Fantasy for a Caribbean Cruise with an itinerary that include St. Thomas and St. Marteen along with Cast Away Cay.

For the week after, we'd return for a week in a 1 bedroom villa at the Grand Floridian. We'd do the Pirate's and Pals Wishes cruise and the illuminations cruise and go to the Christmas party.

Then we'd spend 4 days in a town home with a private pool while visiting Sea World and Busch Gardens before finally cruising the Caribbean for 5 more days on the Magic with a stop in Conzumel.
 
I have 2 adopted daughters from China. They came home as infants and now are 6&10. Our trip of a lifetime will be going back to China in the next 5 years. We plan to volunteer in an orphange, go to HK disney,Beijing,The province where my girls came from and then onto Guangzhou to exit the country. I am thinking $10,000.
 
Disney Trip of a Lifetime?

2.5 weeks, minimum. 1 week at AKL, a few days at Pop, 1 week at WL.

Parks would be every other day, at most. Lots of time spent at pools, resort hopping, eating good meals, riding the transportation (which we love), and people watching. We would hit the each coast once, do a few things around Orlando...lots of mini golfing and such.


Outside of WDW trip?

Domestic - Amtrak to Seattle, then road trip from Seattle to San Diego. Take a few weeks, see everything.

International - 1 month - England, Scotland, Ireland. Then all of Northern Europe...Scandinavia, Germany, Poland, Netherlands, Luxembourg. Maybe fly to Iceland if enough time. Lots of train travel.
 
If Disneyworld, I'd want to stay in the castle suite for a minimum of two weeks with all the bells and whistles WDW offers.
But, I have always wanted to go to Italy and Paris.
 
My 9 day/8night trip has already cost me a small fortune for my family so if money were no object I would of course want to plan a longer trip. We're only doing Universal one day so I would have liked to spend more time there. Maybe also see Sea World & Discovery Cove. We're staying at ASM this trip so I would love to have been able to stay in one of the more expensive hotels or of course the Castle Suite. My girls would LOVE that!! But honestly. I am just happy to finally be taking my family to Disney. I am focused on making this trip the trip of a lifetime bc lord knows when we'll be able to go back.

Outside of Disney I would love to travel the World. See it all. Just backpack through Europe. And try to see as much as I possibly could.

I have already been lucky enough to drive cross country here in the US. That was a trip of a lifetime! We drove from Philadelphia, PA to Colorado Spring, CO. Then up to Yellow Stone National Park & Grand Tetons National Park and then all the way back home to Philly. We saw and did so much! It was an amazing trip!! My husband and I have talked about doing a similar trip when our kids are older but driving all the way to California. Some day...
