How to Plan a Disney World Honeymoon
Despite its reputation as a vacation spot geared towards kids, Disney World is one of the most popular honeymoon destinations in the United States. The Walt Disney World Resort offers newlyweds a variety of activities, ranging from five star dining and luxurious spa treatments to exotic animal safaris and tame rides based on classic animated films.

Disney Vacation Basics
1Decide on a budget. Disney World offers accommodations ranging from value hotels like motor inns to deluxe resorts that feature gourmet restaurants and extensive room service. Hotel rates can vary seasonally and are generally highest in the summer.
2Determine a length of stay. If you plan to honeymoon in Disney World during the summer, you may need more than a week to do everything on your list. The resort is much less crowded during late winter months and will require a shorter stay.
3Book airline tickets, a hotel room and buy park tickets directly through Walt Disney World’s travel agency or a private agency. Check deals offered by travel websites that sometimes run Disney World specials. Make sure to mention to your agent that you are planning a honeymoon.
4Plan to spend at least one day at each Disney World park. EPCOT, Animal Kingdom, MGM Studios and the Magic Kingdom offer very different attractions and you won’t want to miss a thing. Disney offers a special pass that will allow you to travel freely from park to park throughout your stay.
5Make reservations several months in advance for sit down restaurants, especially if your vacation will be during peak season. Although each park and resort has casual dining options, you may want to plan at least one special dinner to celebrate your new life together in style.
Romance at Disney World
1Watch the fireworks over Cinderella’s castle at the Magic Kingdom. Each park offers an after dark pyrotechnic show, but this is arguably the most romantic.
2Stroll through the streets of some of the world’s most romantic cities at EPCOT. Sample wine and dessert in Paris, shop at a high end department store in China or dine under the stars overlooking a river in Mexico.
3Take a boat ride to Downtown Disney and see Cirque du Soleil’s La Nouba. After the show, dance the night away in nightclubs featuring retro, rock and techno music. Remember to purchase La Nouba tickets when planning your Disney World honeymoon as the performances sell out nightly.
4Ride Kilimanjaro Safari at Disney’s Animal Kingdom. You will feel like you’ve been transported to Africa when you view lions, monkeys and giraffes from an open jeep. The animals are real, not the Disney animatronics for which they are so well known.
5Schedule a couples’ spa treatment, go horseback riding or relax on your room’s balcony while using night vision goggles to watch giraffes roam the hotel grounds if you stay at one of the Disney World resorts.
6Take a carriage ride along the river at the Port Orleans resort at sunset. Check on availability of carriages and hours of operation when planning your Disney World honeymoon.
