In the summertime when the weather is high, you can stretch right up and touch the sky.  -Mungo Jerry Here we are in July, folks and that red-hot calendar speaks volumes about what it’s like in Disney World this month in more ways than one.  We’ve got lots of people and high temps and thick humidity and the growing possibility of afternoon thundershowers (though we’ll see lots more of those in August).  But we’ve also got summer savings deals, extended {Read More}

Summertime is just about here, folks, with many southern schools finishing up and beginning their summer vacations at the end of May and in early June.  As June draws to a close, the rest of the country’s kids are out for the summer and families are hitting the road with Disney World as their destination.  Temps are creeping up and things are starting to feel steamy with increasing humidity.  At the same time, there’s just nothing like the fun of {Read More}

Ahhh, beautiful May.  As much as I’d go to Disney World pretty much any week of the year, I have to say that May is my absolute favorite time to be there.  The weather is incredible (I don’t mind the heat, especially without the heavy-duty humidity of the summer months), crowds are low, there’s not a lot of rain, and I just love Epcot International Flower and Garden Festival which ends on May 18th.  Maybe I should keep May a secret!  {Read More}

April is a decidedly busy month to visit Disney World and the weeks including the Easter & Passover holidays are some of the busiest (and most expensive) all year.  Many schools are closed for spring break and families flock to visit the Mouse.  Can you still have a good time?  Absolutely.  A smart touring plan (which I can provide!) will help you to maximize your time in the parks and help you to avoid the long lines.  One bonus is {Read More}

The March crowd calendar has a distinctly reggae-feel to it, right?  In any case, that first green week, continuing from the low crowds during the last week in February, make this a really nice time to visit.  Pricing this week remains at Regular Season but goes up to Peak Season as the crowds start to increase on March 7th.  March starts to see temperatures rising as well, with highs in the upper 70s. Crowd Levels & Special Events For the {Read More}

February can be a fantastic month to visit the Walt Disney World Resort.  Aside from the President’s Week hullaballoo, (resort prices rise to Peak Season that week), crowds are low and resort pricing is at either Value or Regular Season.  Weather in February is similar to that in January and while we do see occasional 80-degree days, dressing in layers is still a must for the cooler mornings and evenings when the average lows are around 50°. Crowd Levels & {Read More}

Coming off the very busy holiday season, the Walt Disney World Resort in January boasts low crowds and prices and comfortable theme park touring temperatures.  And while it may not be ideal water park weather, shorter lines and great Walt Disney World package deals are an excellent trade-off. Crowd Levels & Special Events Aside from that first week in January at the tail-end of the holiday season, January enjoys relatively low crowds throughout the month.  The Walt Disney World Marathon {Read More}
