Hi Nathaly,
Welcome to planDisney! I'm so excited to hear that you're planning a visit with so many fellow Mouseketeers! And during the
holiday season?! That's my
favorite time of year to visit, and I just know you're going to have a blast, and you'll head back home with hearts full of magical memories and Christmas joy!
While Disney does offer group discounts, they require that you book a minimum of ten Disney Resort hotel rooms for at least one night. If you're all wanting your own space and you'll meet that requirement, I'd encourage you to chat with
Disney Group Getaways. If not, Hakuna Matata...no worries! Not only are there usually some great
special offers available for everyone, especially if you're staying in the magic with
Disney Resorts Collection, but I'm happy to share a few budget-saving tips I've learned from traveling with an immediate family of seven!
First, the price per day drops quite a bit the more days you add on, so I'd encourage you to take some time to figure out which
theme park tickets would be best for you. If you only want to visit two parks, a 2-day 1 Park Per Day ticket might be perfect for you. If you're wanting to visit all four parks, though, you could either spread your visit out over four days or look at a shorter stay with the
Park Hopper option added to your tickets, which will allow you to visit more than one park per day. The great thing about visiting Walt Disney World Resort is that once you've entered those magical welcome gates, all of the attractions and entertainment experiences are included in the cost of your ticket! You'll need to budget for your food and any souvenirs, but I have a few tips there, too. Did you know that you'll be allowed to
bring your own food and drinks with you into the parks? It's true! There are a few restrictions, like no glass bottles, alcohol, loose ice, or food that needs to be heated, but you could save quite a bit of money by packing snacks or even a meal! And as far as souvenirs go, my family loves collecting
pressed pennies! Finally, I'm happy to share that when just one of you purchases
Memory Marker, you'll be able to view, share, and download the photos and videos collected by everyone in your group! Just make sure you're all connected via the
Family & Friends list and have given each other
permission to share photos, then enjoy the magic and memories for years to come!
I hope this helps as you're planning your visit, Nathaly! Thanks so much for stopping by planDisney, and please let us know if you have any other questions. I'm wishing you and your entire crew a truly magical vacation!
