It's literally the Tigerdroppings equivalent for Disney on steroids.

read it daily. There are tone of secrets but depends on what you are looking for. I mean, there are literally books just on "secrets".


Seriously, link below is pretty funny, entertaining and very useful.

I can provide some tips but you're going to have to be a little more specific. Being that you are leaving soon you probably don't have too much flexibility to change some dining and night time entertainment but tell us about your trip.

How many people going? For how long? Ages of those going? Staying where? Like thrill rides? prefer meet & greets and character interaction? Drink alot of alcohol? Foodies?

I can suggest a great place in Epcot (Italy) that offers a hidden little wine bar thats off the radar but if you're going with 11 year olds who want to do test track 14 times, that doesn't help.

Here are two things I love to do that the casual Disney visitor doesn't know -

Restaurant: Big River Grille and Brew Works - good food and the brew beer in house.

Attraction: In Epcot - Japan - When you go inside the gift shop, they have a pool where you select an oyster. They culture pearls and you have them mount and make a piece of jewelry. Your girlfriend will probably like this.

Hope this helps.

Go counter clockwise through the Magic Kingdom. You will have less people to deal with. Almost everybody goes clockwise, starting in Tomorrow Land.

You can enter Epcot via the side entrance at Disney Boardwalk. It allows you to skip all the crap attractions in front. You start out between England and France.

It's hot as balls in Orlando.

I would not necessarily say these are "secrets" but more suggestions...

1) If you are going with kids, the character meals are well worth their cost. Not for the food... the food at most of them sucks. But you get to avoid standing in some of the character lines.

2) If you have a Disney Visa card, there is a special character meet and greet in Epcot that usually has a very short line.

3) Build your day around your fastpasses. If you have a Fastpass for Toy Story, for example, plan to spend time before and after in Pixar Place.

4) Hall of Presidents is a great place to take a short nap.

5) If you are doing the meal plan, there are websites that will tell you how to maximize your snack credits.
