Hiya Bernadette!
Thank you for sending us this great question, and welcome to planDisney! As a fellow international guest, I am so excited for you to experience the magic of the Walt Disney World Resort, and I am honoured to be answering your question today. Planning a Disney vacation as an international guest can be challenging at times, but that is what we are here for!
Wow, Bernadette, you are a Disney pro! I am so glad to hear that you already have your theme park tickets purchased and that you have made your theme park reservations, as these are some of the most important steps when planning a Disney vacation. Now, let's talk about how you can add some pizzazz to your vacation! You can
purchase the Disney Genie+ service through the
My Disney Experience app on the day of your visit. If the My Disney Experience app is not available in your app store, you should be able to access it upon your arrival in Florida. In the three-line menu, click on "My Genie Day" and you should then be able to click on "Get Disney Genie+ for Today." For any assistance with the Disney Genie+ service, you may call the
free helpline. You can also ask for help from a Guest Relations Cast Member at the main entrance of any of the four parks or the Disney Springs Guest Relations locations, but time is key when selecting these return times! Therefore, it would be better to have your Disney Genie+ service added to your reservation before 7 A.M. on the day of your visit.
Once your magical plans are settled, make sure to plan some time to visit the
EPCOT International Flower and Garden Festival! Not only is the sight of EPCOT in full bloom breathtaking, but there are so many unique offerings that you will be able to experience. First, I would highly recommend picking up your festival passport at the front of the park and looking at all the food booths available. Then, make your way around the World Showcase and pick up some tasty treats that are only available during the festival! One of the best ways to discover the different offerings is by participating in the
Garden Graze. After purchasing each of the items listed, you will then receive a complimentary treat! If you particularly liked one of the items, you can also get it more than once. Lastly, end the day by celebrating the World's Most Magical Celebration with EPCOT's newest nighttime show, "Harmonious."
I hope this was helpful, Bernadette, and that you and your family have the most wonderful time on your next Disney vacation. If you have any other questions in the time leading up to your visit, please don't hesitate to reach out. You're as welcome as can be!
Have a beautiful dai-sy,
Ariane
