Whether you’re planning to visit Walt Disney World with your whole family or finally taking that much-needed trip with your best friends, we’re sharing new ways to save this summer. Scroll to find your travel party so you can choose your own Disney vacation adventure!

First, to pair with your theme park ticket picks, there’s a brand-new offer at select Disney Resort hotels so you can be close to the theme parks. Starting April 9, book your summer travel and save up to 30% on a room at a select Disney Resort hotel when you stay five nights or longer.* Learn more on April 9 at DisneyWorld.com/specialoffers.

Our picks for family adventures

Cool summer stays: One of my favorite things to do on vacation is take complimentary Disney transportation back to my resort for a midday pool break before heading back to the parks for the evening.

Park ticket pick: One of our favorite ticket offers is back and it’s a great ticket option for families to see all four parks. Starting at $99 per day plus tax (total price starting at $396 plus tax) for adults, and with a new lower price just for kids ages 3-9 starting at $79 per day plus tax (total price starting at $316 plus tax), the 4-Day, 4-Park Magic Ticket is the perfect option to enjoy it all at a pace that makes sense for the whole family. With this ticket, spend one day at each theme park (one admission per park and one park per day). This ticket is date-based, so you can choose the dates that work for your family and head to the park without making reservations.  To learn more, visit DisneyWorld.com/4ParkMagic.

Itinerary tips: Choosing a few attractions and experiences that everyone in the family wants to see is a great way to guide your itinerary for each day. I recommend heading to some of these must-do kid-friendly attractions first: Toy Story Mania! at Disney’s Hollywood Studios, Peter Pan’s Flight at Magic Kingdom Park, Frozen Ever After at EPCOT and Na’vi River Journey at Disney’s Animal Kingdom Theme Park.

Resorts with more to explore: Resort days are an essential part of my vacation plans at Walt Disney World and there’s an endless amount of content to explore for your story.

Park ticket pick: If you’re looking for the best option for an adult trip, or maybe your teens are looking for a rush, the 3-Day, 3-Park Ticket is a brand-new way to experience Disney Thrills with one-day admission to Animal Kingdom, EPCOT and Hollywood Studios (one admission per park, one park per day) at a great price for all guests (starting at $89 per day plus tax, total price starting at $267 plus tax). This ticket is not valid for admission to Magic Kingdom. To learn more, visit DisneyWorld.com/specialoffers.

Itinerary tips: As much as I love getting a head start on the day, there’s nothing like seeing the magic of Walt Disney World at night. I’d recommend making a point to see the other-worldly Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge when the sun goes down, take some amazing photos wandering the streets of Batuu, and channel your inner Chewie piloting a night flight on Millennium Falcon: Smugglers Run.

Itinerary tips: Don’t miss some of the uniquely Disney live experiences beyond parades and fireworks.
