If you're planning a trip to Walt Disney World or Disneyland this year (2023), this podcast episode is for you, but the advice we offer is not strictly limited to this year alone, as several points we offer can be applied to any Disney vacation. In this podcast episode, we share some advice about what's new at Disney for 2023 (including planned attraction refurbishments, seasonal events, and more), how to make the best use of Genie+ and Lightning Lane (or how to have a great time at Disney without either), where to stay on a Disney vacation, how to plan a first trip to Disneyland, improving your odds of getting your preferred dining reservation, and more.

Remember that our travel partners Magical Park Vacations and The Park Planners can help make your next trip to Disney even more magical. As with most travel agencies, working with Magical Park Vacations is a complimentary service (they book your vacation at no additional cost, and the amount you pay for Disney is the same whether you use their services or not), and working with the concierge team at The Park Planners can help provide even more magic on your next vacation.
