Hiya Tom! Welcome to planDisney!
Oh boy! Planning a multigenerational family vacation to the Most Magical Place on Earth is such an exciting task! While there is a ton to consider, you are going to have the best time planning for this trip! I was able to visit a couple of years ago with my wife, two young daughters, and my parents. It was their first time ever in Walt Disney World and they had the best time of their life watching my daughter's faces light up around every turn.
When planning your stay, you will have a few options to help you create a magical Disney vacation. You can
call the Walt Disney World Resort directly and speak to a Cast Member for assistance. They will be able to book your entire stay directly over the phone. I would first visit the
Walt Disney World website and get familiar with your
Disney Resorts Hotel options. There are different categories of resorts that will fit any budget. Next, take some time familiarizing yourself with the different dining options you will have during your stay. There are a host of table service restaurants, some even include dining with characters, and a variety of quick service options as well. Lastly, get an idea of which
parks you plan to visit with your family and how many days you want to spend at each. You may find with their ages that the Magic Kingdom may require an additional day to fit everything in.
Another option is to find an Authorized Disney Vacation Planner to book your visit. To find one, perform a Google search and pick out one that seems to fit the best for you. These individuals can book your entire stay, including airfare, transportation, resort accommodations, park tickets, and more. You'll be able to correspond back and forth with them to create your magical Disney getaway. The best part about using an Authorized Disney Vacation Planner is there is no extra cost to you. You'll pay the same amount for your vacation that you would if you booked it yourself!
Tom, once you have your trip finalized and scheduled, you are going to have so much to look forward to next summer! Your grandchildren are going to have the best time! If you have additional questions,
stop back to see me again at planDisney!
Happy planning!
