So I'm pretty excited to say I'll be going to ORL in Aug. and taking my mother who's never been (I as well for most of the WDW Resort) and basically since it's been YEARS since I've last been I want to make the best out of my time there and know my way around the parks/ what would best fit our budget/ how to tackle the crowds and get the most for our budget.
Now the thing is I have two dates in mind - landing the day of SW: GE's opening or going the week before and experiencing GE in DL at a later time. However I know it may be a while till I go back, so should I just say to hell with it and go the week of GE's opening? For reference I'm thinking going either Aug. 16- 23 or Aug 23 - 30. I'm saving the last two days for UOR.
For WDW, what would be the best way to plan on hitting the parks? MK first, HS next, AK after, etc? What 2 parks would be doable in one day (I'm considering getting a 4 park hopper JUST in case but I know that doing more than 2 parks in a day is tiresome and chaotic)? Would it be best if I maximize the most doing one park per day? Also - best attractions to reserve Fastpasses for? Im thinking of making dining reservations for either breakfast or dinner as well - besides Be Our Guest, what other restaurants are there? What park would I benefit most from/ less from?
Contrast that from going opening week of SW: GE - how should my plan of attack differ?
Same for USO - IoA first, USO after (I'm probably gonna scalp for the park to park just for HE)?
If possible, what should my plan of attacks be for these parks? What should I avoid, etc.
Also besides Undercover Tourist - would I find any other better deals for these parks? Could I possibly squeeze in SWO?
Any help would be well appreciated!
