Spring break is the perfect time to visit Walt Disney World, and we couldn’t be more excited about our upcoming trip! Whether we’re looking for the thrill of iconic attractions, delicious Disney eats, or simply soaking in the magic, we are ready to make unforgettable memories with our family.
Since our last visit’s been a few years, we’re eager to experience both beloved classics and exciting new offerings. Here’s everything we can’t wait to do during our magical Walt Disney World spring break vacation!
Soaring High on the Disney Skyliner
The Disney Skyliner isn’t just transportation—it’s an attraction in itself! This gondola system offers a scenic and relaxing ride between major locations, connecting:
- EPCOT’s International Gateway
- Disney’s Hollywood Studios
- Disney’s Riviera Resort
- Disney’s Caribbean Beach Resort (the Skyliner hub)
- Disney’s Pop Century Resort & Disney’s Art of Animation Resort
Nothing beats gliding above Walt Disney World with breathtaking views of the parks and resorts below. Arriving at EPCOT’s World Celebration, World Discovery, and World Nature areas via the Skyliner feels extra magical!

Experiencing the Thrill of Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance
If there’s one ride that takes storytelling to the next level, it’s Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance at Disney’s Hollywood Studios. This groundbreaking attraction puts guests in a galactic battle between the First Order and the Resistance.
What makes it so special?
- Multiple ride experiences in one – including a trackless dark ride, walk-through sections, and a motion simulator.
- Jaw-dropping animatronics and life-size Star Wars sets.
- Unpredictable ride sequences that make every experience feel unique.
This immersive Star Wars adventure is a must-do for fans of all ages!
Meeting Mickey Mouse: A Magical Tradition
A visit to Walt Disney World wouldn’t be complete without meeting Mickey Mouse! Character meet-and-greets have returned in full force, and we are thrilled to say hello to Mickey in his signature locations across the parks:
- Magic Kingdom: Town Square Theater (Classic Mickey in tuxedo)
- EPCOT: Creations Shop near the entrance
- Disney’s Hollywood Studios: Red Carpet Dreams (Mickey and Minnie in Hollywood attire)
- Disney’s Animal Kingdom: Adventurers Outpost (Safari Mickey!)
There’s something magical about getting a hug and a photo with Mickey, making this experience a top priority for our trip.
Relaxing by the Resort Pool
After busy days at the parks, unwinding at the resort pool is necessary. Walt Disney World resorts boast incredible pools, splash areas, and water slides, making them an attraction all their own.
Many resorts offer afternoon activities like:
- Poolside games and trivia
- Themed music and dance parties
- Evening Movies Under the Stars
We can’t wait to kick back, relax, and enjoy the Florida sunshine in between our park days!

Food is a major part of any Disney World vacation, and we have plenty of delicious eats on our must-try list:
Classic Disney Snacks

We also love Magic Shots, where PhotoPass adds Disney characters and fun effects to our pictures!

Enjoying Live Entertainment & Performances
While rides get most of the attention, live entertainment at Disney is truly magical. Some of the shows we can’t wait to experience include:
- Festival of the Lion King (Disney’s Animal Kingdom) – A Broadway-style show with stunning performances.

Soaking in the Pure Disney Magic
Beyond the attractions and food, what we’re most excited about is simply experiencing the magic of Walt Disney World. Some of our favorite moments include:
- Walking down Main Street, U.S.A., with Cinderella Castle glowing in the distance.
- Exploring immersive lands like Pandora – The World of Avatar and Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge.
