Wondering how to pack for Disney World? You’re in the right place! I love packing for vacations (I know, it’s my weirdest trait) and consider packing to be an art form and a science. I’m here to share a few of my best packing tips for Disney World, so you aren’t cramming things into your suitcase the night before. I can’t say anything about things you need to bring to Disney World without mentioning my favorite guide to Disney World, the Unofficial…
Mom and I spent one evening last week talking about the restaurants we wanted to try to get reservations for on our next trip. There are so many must-try restaurants in Disney World! Our last trip, we only had 30 days to plan. Now, we get to make reservations 180 days in advance, so we’ll have a better shot of getting our favorites! Hey, don’t forget: if you’re planning a trip to Disney World, make sure to grab a copy…
Some people have trouble deciding what to do in Animal Kingdom, and even worse than that, some people don’t think this lovely park is worth visiting!

On my last trip with my mom in October 2018, I learned a lot about what not to bring to Disney World. I hadn’t been since I was a senior in high school (around 6 years prior) and a lot had changed both about me and about Disney World itself. So, I packed a lot of things that just didn’t get used! Today, I wanted to share what I will not be packing again. We’re planning to fly in December…

When my mom and I are planning our next trip to Disney World, we spend more time on eating than on anything else. With so many Disney World restaurants to choose from, where do I eat? That’s a controversial topic, for sure, but I will share my opinions and want to hear yours in the comments, too! Most importantly: I don’t think there are any awful places to eat. There are places I avoid because it’s not my…
Let’s talk about one of my actual favorite things about Disney World (seriously): The food. And a little more specific than the food, let’s dive into the Disney Dining Plan. Which is not my favorite thing but definitely a thing I enjoy. First, though: Remember that I recommend doing all planning for Disney World using my bible, the Unofficial Guide.

So, let’s dive in to what I learned about what to bring to Disney World. If you’ve ever been to Disney World, you know that what you do and don’t bring with you can make or break a day. Not your entire trip, but at least a day. Let’s dive in. Disclaimer: This…
This summer, I was tasked with the impossible. OK, I’m being a little melodramatic, but who didn’t know that? Anyway. I had to pack two suitcases, two carryons and two personal items with enough items to get Patrick and I through a 8-day Mediterranean / Southern European cruise, plus three days in Venice beforehand and three days in Athens afterwards. Eek. This is what I was born for. My tips for how to pack for a long trip: 1. Do…
