Hi Louie!
How wonderful to hear you are planning your family's first Walt Disney World vacation. You must be so excited!
With a 3-4 day trip, I recommend only visiting a couple of the theme parks. This way you won't feel too overwhelmed and will still be able to leave some unplanned time for the unexpected magic.
Magic Kingdom Park should definitely be a top priority. This park has some of our favorites, like Splash Mountain, Buzz Lightyear's Space Ranger Spin and Wishes nighttime spectacular. Honestly, we love them all. As a second park, I would probably choose
Disney's Animal Kingdom Theme Park. Shows like Festival of the Lion King and Finding Nemo - The Musical are incredible and there are also exciting rides like: Kilimanjaro Safaris, Kali River Rapids and Expedition Everest.
I would also recommend purchasing
Disney's Memory Maker. You'll be making plenty of first time Disney memories on this trip and with the help of
Disney PhotoPass photographers and
Memory Maker, you can capture and save them all.
Disney dining is another of my favorite planning topics, so if I can offer you any suggestions with it or help you with anything else,
please let me know, Louie.
Enjoy planning your magical vacation.
Pixie Dust,
Lauren
