Disney World on a Budget: Make The Most Out Of Your Vacation

Are you looking to have a wild time on a budget? Head on over to Disney’s Animal Kingdom!

• Rides- Animal Kingdom also offers a lot of attractions that don’t cost anything! You can even go on a real life safari! Animal Kingdom is also home to my personal favorite show on Disney property- The Festival of the Lion King. Make sure you check it out while you’re there!
• Snacks- Animal Kingdom is home to some fun snacks as well! If you’re looking for a quick sit down place to eat, Flame Tree Barbecue offers great barbecue with riverfront views! They even have a hidden seating area located a little off the beaten path that offers a quiet place to escape the craziness of the parks on a busy day! Outside Kilimanjaro Safaris is the Harambe Fruit Market. Here you can get fresh fruits and veggies as well as grilled corn on the cob!
• Souvenirs- Animal Kingdom is full of outside markets with great animal-themed Disney merch! Here you can get animal printed Minnie Ears and Safari Hats with Mickey ears! The perfect accessories to help you have a wild time!

The next park on our list is Disney’s Hollywood Studios. This is the perfect place to step right into the movies! And just like the other Disney Parks, this can also be done on a budget!

• Attractions-  While Hollywood Studios does have the infamous Galaxy’s Edge and Toy Story Land full of fun movie-themed attractions, the park also has great shows! If you’re looking for some nostalgia, check out the Indiana Jones Epic Stunt Spectacular or if you’re feeling like belting out some of your favorite Disney songs with your favorite characters, check out For The First Time In Forever: A Frozen Sing-Along Celebration!
• Snacks- Hollywood Studios has some pretty cool snacks you can’t get in any of the other Disney parks. While you’re in Galaxy’s Edge, head on over to the Milk Stand to get a refreshing blue milk before you blast off into hyperspace and control the fastest hunk of junk in the galaxy on Millennium Falcon: Smugglers Run. Don’t forget to head on over to Woody’s Lunchbox and enjoy some tasty totchos after you’ve spent some time playing with all the toys!
• Souvenirs- Hollywood Studios is the perfect Disney park for some movie-related merch! While there are things in Galaxy’s Edge that are quite pricey like the droids and light sabers you can build yourself, there’s also a huge selection of affordable Star Wars goodies like ears, plushes and trading pins!

The last Disney park on our list is Epcot. Not only is this a great place for snacks and fun rides, this is the ideal place if you are feeling like traveling around the world in one day!

• Rides- Epcot is full of educational and fun rides that are not only great for all ages but are also free just like all the other parks! You can go from learning about China, to learning about where our food comes from on Living With The Land. You can then head on over to Mission Space and travel up to space!
• Snacks- Epcot probably has some of the best snacks around all the Disney Parks. As you travel around The World Showcase, you will have the chance to try different types of food from all over the world! If you’re visiting during Flower and Garden Festival, make sure you try the infamous violet lemonade!
• Souvenirs- Epcot is also the perfect place to do some shopping! While they have stores with traditional Disney merch, each country around The World Showcase has stores with items from that country. Make sure you check out Die Weihnachts Ecke, the Christmas shop in the Germany Pavilion where you can learn about their Christmas pickle tradition and even get a Christmas pickle of your own!
