INSTRUCTIONS FOR YOUR FIRST DISNEY WORLD VISIT
Follow the instructions that follow for your first family visit to Walt Disney World to save thousands of dollars, and avoid dozens of hours waiting in line, while seeing all the best of Walt Disney World!
1. When to Go to Walt Disney World:
Most years, I suggest that if you can, you should arrive at Walt Disney World one of the first two, sometimes three, Saturdays after Thanksgiving. In 2026, I recommend the first three weeks after Thanksgiving. More… Next best dates to go…
2. How Long to Stay:
You can have a wonderful trip spending as few as 5 days. However, if you can, be in Orlando for 9 days–a Saturday through a Sunday. More… Going for a shorter trip…
3. How Old/Tall Your Children Should be:
Kids of any age can have a wonderful time at Disney World. However, if this may be your kids’ only childhood visit, consider going when your youngest child is at least 8 or 9, and your shortest child at least 48 inches tall. More… Planning for going with younger/shorter kids…
4. Where to Stay at Walt Disney World:
Stay at Disney’s Polynesian Resort if you can afford it, or at Disney’s Art of Animation Resort if you can’t. More… Next best resort options…
5. How Much to Budget:
You can have a wonderful first visit for $3,000 or less. However, to see all the best of Walt Disney World at the best time of the year to visit, budget if you can $14,000 if you are staying at the Polynesian, or $9,500 if at Art of Animation. More… Developing a much lower or a different budget…
6. When Your Plans Need to be Firm:
Your plans should be firm at least 181 days before your arrival date. More… Planning if it’s already later than that…

If you have blonde hair, pale eyes, and delicate skin, picking the perfect clothing colors to highlight your original features can truly enhance your image.
