Hi Arwa! Welcome to planDisney!
It looks like you will be making your way to the Walt Disney World Resort tomorrow! I know you are thrilled! Personally, I can't wait to visit the
EPCOT International Food & Wine Festival on my next visit. There are so many delicious food and drinks to try that it makes it hard to choose which
Global Marketplace to head for first!
Staying at a
Disney Resorts Collection hotel gives you the full experience of staying in the "magic," but you don't have to choose a Disney Resort hotel to visit the Walt Disney World theme parks, water parks, and
Disney Springs. They are available to all Guests visiting the area!
To visit the theme parks, you will need to purchase
Walt Disney World theme park tickets AND make
Disney Park Pass reservations. I suggest viewing the
Theme Park Availability calendar before purchasing your tickets to verify that the days and theme parks you want still have reservation availability. Then, purchase your tickets and make your Disney Park Pass reservations right away to make sure you are all set for your days at the Most Magical Place on Earth!
I hope you have a wonderful vacation, Arwa! Please let us know if you have any other questions.
