Q: What's at the Walt Disney World® Resort?
A: A lot of people still think of Walt Disney World® Resort as just the Magic Kingdom® Park, but there's much more to it than that. Walt Disney World® Resort, located near Orlando, Florida, is 47 square miles big -- about the size of the city of San Francisco! In it you'll discover four entire Theme Parks, two Water Parks, two night-time entertainment areas, over 20 Hotels, six golf courses and much, much more.
The Take a Quick Tour Now! section of the site will give you a great overview of this magical vacation destination.
Q: What are the best ages to take kids on a Walt Disney World® Resort vacation?
A: That's hard to answer. Repeat guests have said that each visit has been a unique and priceless experience. Older kids can't wait to take the rides or splash through a Water Park. While younger children delight in the whimsical Disney activities designed especially for them -- not to mention magical meetings with the Disney Characters. (Remember, children under three are granted complimentary admission to the Theme Parks.)
We also offer a variety of services for children of all ages. All our Theme Parks offer stroller rental and baby changing facilities. All of Disney's Hotels offer babysitting service and select Hotels even provide supervised children's activities.
Q: I don't have kids. What is there for adults to see and do?
A: The Walt Disney World® Resort offers entertainment, attractions, shopping and cuisine from around the world to appeal to the child in everyone. But we also offer a variety of activities just for adults. Our Resort Hotels feature complete full-service health facilities, plus a variety of recreation that includes tennis, water sports, fishing, horseback riding -- even six golf courses. Of course, when night falls, adults will love to stay up late at either of our two night-time entertainment areas.
See the Shopping, Entertainment and Recreation section of this site for more information on the adult side of Disney.
Q: How long can I expect to wait in line for a ride?
A: There can be quite a wait for popular rides, but there are also many ways to reduce your waiting time. Check out Disney's new Fastpass®, an exclusive guest service that lets you spend less time waiting in line and more time enjoying the Parks. You just check-in at some of your favorite Disney attractions and receive a designated ride time and quickly get on. Here are more tips on how to avoid long lines in individual Theme Parks.
Q: What's an easy way to plan my vacation?

You should allow at least five days to experience Walt Disney World® Resort. See the Itineraries and Events section to help you plan your vacation.
