10 Reasons You’ll Love the Magic at Walt Disney World

by Brittany DiCologero

10. You love Disney

This first point might seem like an obvious reason, but it goes a little bit deeper than you love Disney, so you’ll love the magic. Because you love Disney, you fully appreciate the magic. Chances are if you’re planning a trip to Walt Disney World (and paying for it) Disney is truly a huge part of your life. Even more so than the fact that you simply like it, you get it. You understand the magic, and you embrace it, because of your love for everything Disney.

9. Make memories with your family and friends

The magic of Walt Disney World allows you to make unforgettable memories with your family and friends that will last a lifetime. Each trip to Walt Disney World will bring you something new and different that you’ve never experienced before. Or even if you’re doing a similar experience again, you might take away a different memory due to the people you’re with and the time of your life. There’s definitely going to be different memories made from when you rode Dumbo with your dad, and when you take your kids on Dumbo—and both are memories that will last a lifetime.

8. Make memories with new friends

Sometimes the magic of a Disney vacation hits you through new friends. New friends can be anyone—the giraffe that cut off your truck at Kilimanjaro safari? Or maybe Mickey Mouse, when you meet him at the Town Square Theater? Or cast members?

7. Appreciate Walt’s legacy

The Disney magic allows you to understand and appreciate Walt’s legacy that he’s left behind at Walt Disney World. While Walt Disney never lived to see the completed Florida Project, there are hints and personal touches everywhere that are either devoted to his legacy, or directly designed or thought of by Walt himself.

6. Something for everyone

Disney vacations have a special kind of magic, in that they offer something for everyone. Disney is one of the few vacation destinations where there really is something that each member of the family will enjoy.

5. Celebrate an occasion

The Disney magic can make any celebration even more memorable. What better place to celebrate something special than Walt Disney World? Even things like seeing Wishes, or watching your favorite shows will feel so much more magical when you’re celebrating something.

 

4. Experiences that you can’t have anywhere else

You’ll love that the Disney magic has brought you to such unique experiences that you can’t have anywhere else. It’s not just anywhere where you can go on an African safari and pilot a mission to Mars in the same day.

 

3. The young and the young at heart

One of the worst misconceptions about Walt Disney World in my opinion, is that it is only for kids. Walt Disney World is for the young and the young at heart. In designing Disneyland, Walt Disney said that he wanted to create a place where parents and kids could have fun together, and that’s exactly what he did. Disney is a place where you never need to feel like you’re too old to partake in something. The Disney magic is truly for everyone—the young, and the young at heart.

 

2. You’re on vacation!

Of course vacation time is always magical, but a Disney vacation is extra magical. Even if things don’t go quite you’re way, just remember that you’re still surrounded by that Disney magic. For instance, what sounds more magical? Watching the rain from behind the window at your office, or embracing the empty Magic Kingdom since the rain drove many other guests home?

 

1. Memories that last a lifetime

The number one reason why you’ll love the magic at Walt Disney World is because this experience will leave you with memories that will last a lifetime. You’ll never forget the first time you see Wishes, or the time you celebrated your 25^th wedding anniversary at Ohana. Each trip to Walt Disney World will bring with it new memories for you and your family (and maybe even those new friends) that you’ll remember, and treasure, for the rest of your life.
