Disney World And Beyond

Disney World Restaurants Vibe Check

If you've spent any time at all hanging out with the Gold Key Adventurers, you know we have a lot of opinions about the best places to eat and drink around Walt Disney World. For this week's episode, we're going to throw that all out. We're talking restaurants, but totally ignoring the food and beverage part - you know, their whole reason for exising. Instead, we're going to rate the best (and some of the worst) eateries on Disney property based solely on their decor and atmosphere.

The atmosphere of a restaurant is almost as important as the food they serve - if the vibes aren't right, the meal just won't be enjoyable. When you add Disney's tendency to theme the heck out of everything, and write extensive background stories for every bathroom and snack stand to the equation, the atmosphere of a restaurant can sometimes even elevate an average meal to something more memorable than it deserves to be.

In this episode, we go around the virtual table and discuss some of our picks for Walt Disney World restaurants with the best atmosphere, as well as some that receive a special dishonorable mention and could use a refurb. In no particular order, some of the spots we talk about are Magic Kingdom's Skipper Canteen, Steakhouse 71, Oga's Cantina, Citrico's, Chef Mickey's, and Abracadar. Can you guess which get a thumbs up, and which a thumbs down? What restaurants at Walt Disney World Resort get your vote for best atmosphere, and which just don't pass the vibe check?

State of the Theme Parks 2024

It's that time of year when we look at the current state of the Disney and Universal theme parks in America, and talk about the most exciting changes, additions, and re-imaginings that have been announced for the coming year. Join us for the 2024 State of the Theme Parks Address!

Topics covered incude:

As of just a few days ago, theme park reservations are no longer needed for most guests at Walt Disney World, and park hopping is open all day long.

To accommodate park hopping, inter-park busses will now start running at 10 am. Interestingly, there is currently no bus from MK to EPCOT- all guests hopping between those two parks are being sent via Monorail.

Also recently returned, is the Disney Dining Plan and Quick Service Dining Plan at Walt Disney World Resort. The plan features some significant changes to price and inclusions from the last time it was offered.

Coming later this summer, the fan favorite Free Dining Plan promotion. Comes with strings attached - requires Disney+ subscription, a longer stay, and the aforementioned changes to the DDP

The Country Bears Jamboree is closing very soon for re-imagining, and the latest release from Disney confirms my fears that they're not just adding a segment with Disney songs on to the beloved show, but totally changing the show to be all Disney songs, with one song that "fans will recognize" - I'm guessing Big Al will still interrupt with Blood on the Saddle.

Rock and Roller Coaster is down for a lengthy refurb - AGAIN. Disney says there is not current change coming to the theme, although the internet feels the time is right considering recent allegations against Steven Tyler.

Construction will soon start on a DVC member lounge somewhere in MK

Scaffolding is starting to come down from Tiana's Bayou Adventure as exterior work and landscaping is nearing completion. The exterior of the mountain is now covered almost entirely with plants to fit the bayou theme.

Disney again mentions large future investment in MK, and specifically teases another announcement for Frontierland, making a future retheme of Pecos Bill's to Tiana's Place seem more likely.

Paradise Pier Hotel at Disneyland completes its transformation with a grand reopening as Pixar Pier Hotel on January 30.

To celebrate all things Pixar and the new hotel, Disneyland and Disney California Adventure will be hosting the return of Pixar Fest from April 26-August 4, featuring an all new pixar themed daytime parade at DCA, and the return of Together Forever, a Pixar Nighttime Spectacular at Disneyland.

May 24, Fantasmic! returns to Disneyland with new special effects, a reimagined finale battle between Mickey and Mileficent, and the return of the iconic Peter Pan scene aboard the Sailing Ship Columbia

Run Disney finally returned to Disneyland - the half marathon weekend just wrapped up, and Sept. 5-8 will feature an all new Halloween half marathon weekend,

Disneyland will expand the plaza between New Orleans Square and Haunted Mansion into a park like area with space for live entertainment. The grounds and queue of the Haunted Mansion will also be expanded to give guests a tour of the mansion's gardens, and guests can visit the carriage house which will house a brand new Haunted Mansion shop.

Dreamworks Animation land will replace Wood Woodpecker's KidZone in Universal Studios Florida some time in 2024

Travel Trends for 2024  

It’s that time of year when we’re all figuring out what the next 12 months are going to look like, and the internet is full of suggestions on how to make sure our lives are on trend in 2024. Let’s take a look at the 10  hottest travel trends we’ve got our eyes on this year. The trends we cover include:

Astro Tourism - Keep your eyes on the skies and seek out the best spots to view the Northern Lights, meteors, comets, and more as you explore the globe.

Cool-cationing - Forget the beach! As summers get hotter, vacationers are seeking out cooler climates to the north and far south for their holidays.

Gig Tripping - Follow your favorite band on their summer tour, catch a bucket list show at a legendary venue, or search the globe for the hottest music festival.

Skip-gen Travel - Grandparents are leaving their adult children at home, and taking the grandkids out for bucketlist adventures or to share meaningful places and experiences.

Luxury Rail Travel - 5 star hotels on wheels, travel in style without the stress of traffic or airports.

Wild Feasting - Foraging for ultra-local ingredients to help prepare a meal, or dining al-fresco after a cooking lesson. Travelers are looking to go beyond eating local delicacies, and actually eat with locals.

Dupe Destinations - Ditch the crowds, and look for spots that give a similar flavor, but aren't overrun with tourists.

Set-Jetting - tourists are seeking out locations where their favorite prestige television shows and movies were filmed for a chance to get closer to the action.

Authentic Cultural Immersion - parasailing and wax museums are fun, but travelers in 2024 want a chance to experience daily life and culture in the places they visit.

Frontier Exploration - whether they're braving the Drake Passage to see Antarctica, or pushing personal boundaries by trying strange new foods, daring adventures, or unfamiliar locales, travelers in 2024 are all about going to undiscovered places.

For more information on these trends, check out this article from Key to the World Travel.

Lately, we’ve been seeing a lot of posts on social media with hilarious one-star reviews visitors have left for some of America’s most popular and stunning national parks. That got us thinking - what do reviewers on popular sites like tripadvisor.com have to say about the Walt Disney World Resort? The results are definitely a mixed bag.  Some of them are hilarious, some of them are infuriating, and most of them have at least a little bit of the truth tucked in between the unreadable spelling errors and major entitlement  issues. While most of the complaints are just so ridiculous they’re funny, the legitimate concerns could be fixed by either doing some research (or even better, book with a travel advisor like the experts at Key to the World Travel!), or learning to manage expectations and remember that you’re not the only person hoping to have the perfect Disney vacation. 

Join Dan and Jeff as they share their favorite bottom-of-the-barrel reviews for The Most Magical Place On Earth, as well as some great tips on how to avoid making the same mistakes as these disgruntled reviewers.

In this episode, we dive into our recent adventure at Universal Orlando's Halloween Horror Nights! Rain or shine, or even a tornado warning, we braved it all to experience this event without any interruptions. Armed with Express Passes, we conquered seven houses in just a few hours – now that's impressive considering the long lines!

Our favorite picks this year? "The Last of Us" and "Stranger Things" blew our minds, as did Yeti:Campground Kills and of course the always terrifying Universal Monsters: Unmasked. We spill the beans on our strategies for getting the most out of this Universal Orlando event, like the "stay and scream" option and the RIP tour choices.

The attention to detail and the immersive experiences in these haunted houses at Halloween Horror Nights are mind-blowing. Beyond the haunted houses, we wandered through scare zones and enjoyed all the entertainment Universal Orlando's Halloween Horror Nights has to offer.

Don't even get us started on the themed food options; we indulged like there was no tomorrow. We're incredibly grateful to have been there at Universal Orlando's Halloween Horror Nights, and we can't wait for the Christmas celebrations.

But that's not all! We're breaking the news on Universal's year-round horror attraction in Las Vegas, Universal Horror Unleashed, the first year-round attraction inspired by Hollywood Horror Nights. Featuring multiple highly immersive horror experiences, including mazes, dining, and a bar, this spot is on our spooky bucket list for sure. 

We encourage you to pack your bags, grab your scare squad, and venture into the fog for Universal Orlando's Halloween Horror Nights. And for expert planning, check out Key to the World Travel.

In this podcast episode, we are joined by a special guest, Cameron Matthews, to recount our remarkable Monorail Pub Crawl escapade at Walt Disney World. The Monorail Pub Crawl is an intriguing journey involving visits to diverse establishments situated within the hotels along the Disney World monorail line. During this adventure, we had the opportunity to savor delectable food and beverages offered at these venues.

Commencing our crawl at the Polynesian Resort, our first stop was Trader Sam's Grog Grotto. We soaked in the lively ambiance at the Tambu Lounge before progressing to the Grotto. Notably, the concoctions at this spot were exceptional, with noteworthy recommendations being the lapu-lapu and back scratcher drinks.

Moving forward, the next destination was the Grand Floridian, where the Enchanted Rose beckoned. This venue stood out for its sophisticated and elegant setting, coupled with creatively crafted cocktails. This strategic crawl approach advised listeners to initiate our journey with a lunch visit to Steakhouse 71 and conclude at either Trader Sam's or Enchanted Rose to ensure a pleasurable experience devoid of excessive crowds.

A focal point of our discussion revolved around the distinctiveness of Trader Sam's as a Tiki bar offering immersive interactions and captivating special effects. This was emphasized as an essential must-visit. Conversely, the versatility of Enchaged Rose, boasting three distinct bars and ample space for numerous patrons, was highlighted.

Our narrative featured an array of exceptional experiences at each location, encompassing an assortment of drinks, including some clandestine menu selections. Notably, the culinary offerings at Citrico's and Steakhouse 71 received praise for their excellence.

As our conversation neared its conclusion, prospects of forthcoming pub crawls were explored, with notions like a Skyliner Pub Crawl and a Disneyland-based bar crawl surfacing as exciting ideas.

In this episode, we explore the world of theme park dining, focusing on hot dogs, corn dogs, sausages, and more. We discuss unique offerings like the jalapeno popper corn dog and the diverse range of hot dogs at Disneyland, Walt Disney World and Universal parks. From exotic options like Korean bulgogi sausage to classic bratwurst, we share our excitement for trying different varieties. First, we’re amazed by the selection of unique, creative, and downright tasty corn dogs at Disneyland, and are very excited that Blue Ribbon Corn Dogs is coming to Walt Disney World’s Boardwalk. 

 We highlight the quality sausages at Downtown Disney’s BB Wolf’s Sausage Co., EPCOT’s Biergarten and The Leaky Cauldron at Universal Studios, and the impressive selection at Universal City Walk’s Hot Dog Hall of Fame. Our episode concludes with a rundown of mouthwatering hot dog styles and a nod to vegan options. We encourage listeners to share the show and recommend Key to the World Travel. Until next time, enjoy your own food adventures!
