Top Tips

1. If you are prone to motion sickness, then Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind and Mission: Space are not the rides you would want to go on.

2. There is a secret entrance called the International Gateway. It is only available to guests who are staying at both the Boardwalk, the Swan and Dolphin, and the Yacht Club resorts.

3. Try to on weekdays rather than weekends. Weekends and holidays tend to be busier times for the park rather than weekdays.

4. Don't pay for bottled water! All Disney Quick-Service restaurants offer FREE cups of water, as well as there being water fountains located around all Walt Disney World theme parks to fill up your water bottle.
