Hi Allie!
What an awesome gesture! I'd love to throw out a few ideas for some fun surprises:
Idea #1 -
Dining with an Imagineer
I'm obsessed with all things Walt Disney World (big surprise, right!). When I did this experience, I felt like I was like hanging out with an A-list celebrity. We heard so many awesome stories from the Imagineer who ate lunch with us (my favorite one involved his first-hand account of how badly a particular Disney executive got scared when he rode the Twilight Zone Tower of Terror for the first time!).
Idea #2 - A Tour
My personal favorite is
Disney's Keys to the Kingdom Tour. I walked away from this experience with a greater appreciation for all the details that make Walt Disney World such an amazing place. Plus, we heard some awesome stories from our tour guide. (As you can tell, I love good stories!)
Idea #3 - La Nouba
If you've ever experienced a Cirque du Soleil show, then you know how amazing their performances are. Couple this with an awesome dinner somewhere in Downtown Disney and you've got plans for an incredible evening!
Here's a bonus idea from your buddy Derek:
I'm guessing that your visit may also coincide with Epcot's International Food & Wine Festival. If that's the case, there are a slew of
special events and experiences that you may want to check out as well!
I hope that helps! If you'd like some additional ideas, please feel free to write back and I'd love to help you plan something special!
Best regards,
Derek
