Part of being a great travel planner is making sure our clients have all the tips and tricks available to them. I’m often asked by families with young children if they should skip Epcot because they all have the misconception there isn’t many age appropriate activities for them.

Epcot offers a lot of hands on attractions and educational opportunities through the rides, countries and displays. Please note many of these attractions offer us parents a chance to sit down and take [...]

If you have young daughters, no trip to a Disney park would be complete without visiting the Princesses. At the Disneyland resort in California, one great way to meet a lot of Princesses at one time is to make a dining reservation at Ariel’s Grotto – located in Disney California Adventure. Ariel’s Grotto is a fun, beach themed restaurant that looks over Paradise Pier. There is indoor and outdoor seating (be sure to note your request if you have a preference).

If you are planning a trip to Walt Disney World you probably know one of the hardest dining reservations to get is at the new Be Our Guest restaurant in Fantasyland at the Magic Kingdom. These reservations often disappear within the first few minutes of the system opening 180 days in advance. But, never fear – there is another option! Lunch at Be Our Guest is considered “upscale counter service” and does not require a reservation. In fact, reservations aren’t taken for lunch. The restaurant is part of a beta test for FastPasses for meals and select guests do receive [...]
