Holiday geared trip tips

[sWANNISAX]

I am heading to wdw on Tuesday afternoon and will be there thru Sunday. We are hoping to see as much Christmas stuff as possible. We are going to the Christmas party on Thursday. Why are the other must see attractions or little known places to visit. Which hotels are worth visitin for decorations.

There are tons of threads on this. We went down a couple weeks ago and enjoyed Wilderness Lodge, Fort Wilderness, Grand Floridian, Caribbean Beach Resort, DHS (Osborne Festival of Lights), Boardwalk area and resort... Every resort has some decorations

DHS Ousbourne lights is a must do. The Wilderness lodge has some nice decoration as well. Really anywhere you go will have nice decorations

i forgot to mention Downtown Disney. It is decorated beautifully and if you have kids they can meet Santa Claus.

Here are a few of my tips...
* Osborne Lights in DHS
* Holiday Story Tellers in Epcot
* Candlelight Processional in Epcot
* Illuminations has a holiday tag at the end at this time of year
* Cinderella's Wish castle lighting ceremony each night in MK
* While you're seeing it in the park, you might also try to catch Holiday Wishes from outside the park as well from a point where the music is piped in...like the Poly Beach, Contemporary deck, and the GF dock.
* Decorations at Ft. Wilderness
* DTD has nice decorations... really pretty light tree and music over near Fultons and Portabello
* A good handful of the resorts have nice trees and/or neat gingerbread creations (WL,GF,AKL,BC,BW are the ones that come to mind first)
*Also, the new projection show on the castle has a holiday portion in the middle

The deluxe resort loops. MK loop + WL is better than Epcot, but both are worth a stop if you have time. AKL is also great, but a bit out of the way. The mods and values aren't really worth making a trip out of your way unless you are really bored/have off days.

Just follow our family! We'll be there from Thursday to Sunday hitting as many holiday activities as possible too!

Always one of our favorite things!

Holiday story tellers in Epcot
Osborne lights in HS
Cinderella's wish in MK
All three of the above are great, but be sure to visit Santa in Epcot (American adventure), in MK, and DTD.

Are you doing the candle light processional. Worth seeing

No one mentioned Santa pictures at Downtown Disney. Lines could be long though depending on the time of day/evening.

 

[sWANNISAX]

We are planning to hit the processional tonight Ny tips on times? Which line is shortest?

I think my favorite things are the big trees in each park.

Candlelight Processional & storytellers at Epcot
Lights at DHS
MVMCP...I guess. Kind of. Wait, no. I wouldn't pay for it.
Hotels...my personal favorites are GF and WL, though I'm not sure I'd take time out of vacation to go see them.
