    First trip to disney world w/fam in november & I am so overwhelmed by all of the information provided. Just trying to get some ideas on what things i need to have planned out before we get there. we are styaing at a value resort & have 4 day park

    Hi Christina - It can definitely seem intimidating, but you've come to the right place!

    First, you'll want to make sure that you make any dining reservations that you'll need when you are there.  The window for reservations opens 180 days in advance, and many locations do book up well in advance.

    If you have base tickets (i.e. no park hoppers), then you may want to plan which parks you are going to be in each day.  You'll need a valid ticket to access a park for dining, so you'll have to go to that park for the day.

    I'd definitely recommend that you take a look at a guidebook or two to get some ideas of which attractions you'll want to do.  Two books I recommend are the Passporter and the Complete Idiot's Guide to Walt Disney World.

    I hope that helps!  Have a great vacation!
