subject: Enjoy Incredible Savings At Disney [print this page] Some may say that Disney World vacations are extremely expensive; but the truth is you can plan such a trip even on a budget. Even when destinations like the House of Mouse are a part of a vacation, the overall trip can be affordable and fun. Here are some tips to keep in mind if planning your own Disney World vacation.
Choosing Accommodations
When choosing accommodations, the foremost decision that you would have to make is whether to stay on-site or outside the theme park. Staying on-site may be costly in terms of upfront prices but it is made worth it by the perks and privileges that you will enjoy while visiting the park. But if you think that the cost of the on-site hotels is too much for you then you should go for those that are located outside the park. There are so many hotels located around Orlando that will definitely fit the bill. You may also choose from a variety of Kissimmee hotels, which would give you a different kind of Florida vacation; one that is characterized by tranquility and peace.
Getting Around
If you are going to stay on-site, be sure to take advantage of the complimentary transportation provided by Disney World theme parks. There really is no need to spend your vacation money on a rental car that you don't really need since Disney World offers free shuttle services to and from the hotel, theme parks, and airports. If you are going to stay outside the theme park, such as in a Kissimmee hotel, then transportation becomes important. Many hotels in and around theme parks offer free shuttle service to Disney World so that you will not have to worry about getting to the home of Mickey Mouse.
Food and Drinks
As you probably know, items purchased inside the park are typically quite expensive. For this reason, dining outside of the park is a wise option for the budget-conscious traveler. It may also be possible to place healthy snack foods into a bag that you will carry through the park. This way, there is no need to purchase expensive snacks as you go about your day. Taking this step will enable you to save a lot of money. If you want to experience dining inside the park, you can research restaurants before you arrive. This way you know what to expect in terms of pricing and can plan accordingly. Staying hydrated is important to enjoying busy days spent in the theme park. However, that doesn't have to eat up your vacation budget. All around the park, one can find water fountains to quench their thirst and stay hydrated. Shopping
Shopping is an activity most visitors will engage in. Everyone likes to have souvenirs from their Disney World vacation! It is important to allocate enough funds for the shopping and stick to your budget. If possible, try shopping outside the park at merchandise outlets that sell Disney items at lower prices. Just because a store is located outside the park does not make the merchandise less valuable.
A Disney World Vacation can be fun and exciting without costing a fortune. Plan wisely and have a great time!
