Both parks (especially Epcot) are around a lake and the night wind can be cold. </p> <p>The food is great! Disney Food Blog has lots of posts and shows you the menu. I dont know that you would want to do the dining reservations alone but at least get an idea for the take out services. </p> <p>Download the disney App so you can book Fastpasses </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/disney-as-a-solo-adult-need-help#post-2786470 Tue, 14 Nov 2017 21:39:29 +0000 summerfruit 2786470@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Maybe you've already made up your mind, but I just wanted to put my 2 cents in since I've been in your situation. A few years ago I had a conference at one of the Disney hotels, and the conference advertised those same discounted after 5pm tix. We didn't end up getting them, but we did try taking the Disney shuttle to one of the adjacent Disney areas (something like Downtown Disney maybe?) after the conference, and it took FOREVER and felt super stressful! Granted, this was in May, not December, so hopefully you have a better time with that. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/disney-as-a-solo-adult-need-help#post-2786462 Tue, 14 Nov 2017 21:14:27 +0000 Oliviapope 2786462@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>thank you all! i am getting excited!</p> <p>looks like i can get reduced price tickets through the convention. i'm definitely going to go to epcot one night and explore.</p> <p>now that i'm all excited i'm also wondering whether i should go to the magic kingdom christmas party night. </p> <p>any blogs or websites that you would recommend for tips?</p> <p>i'll also search the forums here. thank you so much! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/disney-as-a-solo-adult-need-help#post-2786424 Tue, 14 Nov 2017 17:07:24 +0000 snowjewelz 2786424@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I would soooo do that. Go or it and have fun! I'd probably go to Epcot! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/disney-as-a-solo-adult-need-help#post-2786414 Tue, 14 Nov 2017 16:00:36 +0000 Mama Bird 2786414@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I like Epcot at night. And it's also probably nice to go through it at your own pace... Just guessing - I was there with my maniac cousins, and they dragged me through all the best parts way too fast. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/disney-as-a-solo-adult-need-help#post-2786411 Tue, 14 Nov 2017 15:52:46 +0000 Charm54 2786411@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Check out if Disney After Hours is offered during your dates ... it's about the same cost as a 1 day MK ticket and gives you the entire theme park with zero lines after the park closes. It looks amazing and I want to do it our next trip! You could see so much in one visit that way. </p> <p><a href="https://disneyworld.disney.go.com/en_CA/events-tours/magic-kingdom/disney-after-hours/" rel="nofollow">https://disneyworld.disney.go.com/en_CA/events-tours/magic-kingdom/disney-after-hours/</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/disney-as-a-solo-adult-need-help#post-2786385 Tue, 14 Nov 2017 13:01:13 +0000 bubblegum 2786385@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Do it!!! I'm jelly!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/disney-as-a-solo-adult-need-help#post-2786380 Tue, 14 Nov 2017 12:48:24 +0000 SweetiePie 2786380@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DO IT!!! I’m so jealous.<br /> I would do Epcot for sure. It’s my favorite (I’ve been 3 times as an adult without kids). The countries are awesome and probably something kids would be less interested in so it’s better to go without. Lots of food and booze!<br /> They also have some cooler exhibits that kids might not like. More technology driven stuff. It’s been a while but they used to have a futuristic house that I thought was so cool. And a whole garden/greenhouse with cool hybrids and stuff.<br /> They also had some great simulation rides that young kids would be too small for. I mean this was 10 years ago, I bet it’s even better now!<br /> Then if you Like rides I’d do the Disney Hollywood studios. More thrill type rides. </p> <p>I guess the Magic Kingdom is very classic but I personally felt it was my least favorite and the most kid-centric. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/disney-as-a-solo-adult-need-help#post-2786376 Tue, 14 Nov 2017 12:42:52 +0000 yoursilverlining 2786376@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Do it!! I went to WDW solo 2 years ago because I was at a work conference and staying at the Yacht Club. Going solo is AWESOME sauce because you don’t have to plan around anyone else and can just do whatever you like. Also, a bunch of rides have “single rider” lines which were always super short so I could go on rides I liked that had long lines several times without much of a wait at all. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/disney-as-a-solo-adult-need-help#post-2786374 Tue, 14 Nov 2017 12:38:11 +0000 misolee 2786374@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I would go to Epcot and tour the countries. There’s good food, unique shopping, and a ride or two if you’re interested. Plus they have great fireworks too. Make reservations for the nice restaurants!</p> <p>Personally, if I was doing solo, I would avoid Magic Kingdom. There’s a lot of kids 😂 I wouldn’t want to stand by myself in all the lines for rides too. Even with fast passes, it can be 30 minute wait for some of the popular rides. </p> <p>I would go to Disney Springs. It’s free. There’s restaurants. There’s shopping. I think there’s a Cirque de Soleil show too. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/disney-as-a-solo-adult-need-help#post-2786369 Tue, 14 Nov 2017 12:33:59 +0000 Mrs. Microscope 2786369@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Do it! For magic kingdom I would just grab a map and do what sounds fun! Most popular rides have a single rider line, so you should be able to do a lot. Grab some yummy snacks and wander around enjoying the ambiance before fireworks. At Epcot, you should be able to get bar seating for 1 pretty easy, or even see if you can get a reservation if you want something specific. </p> <p>You will have so much fun! And so low stress! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/disney-as-a-solo-adult-need-help#post-2786342 Tue, 14 Nov 2017 11:53:28 +0000 erinbaderin 2786342@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I haven't been in years and so can't really help with ideas, but I think you'd probably have a great time going by yourself. It would be a different kind of fun than with kids, but I still think it would be fantastic - I'm thinking about waiting in lines listening to podcasts and not worrying about entertaining children, staying late to watch the fireworks without caring about bedtimes, having a beer, etc. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/disney-as-a-solo-adult-need-help#post-2786339 Tue, 14 Nov 2017 11:51:33 +0000 Oliviapope 2786339@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Hah - meant to say I"ll be in Orlando in early December (10-14). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/disney-as-a-solo-adult-need-help#post-2786337 Tue, 14 Nov 2017 11:50:41 +0000 Oliviapope 2786337@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'll be in Orlando in Florida - at a conference and have an opportunity to go to Disney after 5 PM.</p> <p>I haven't been since I was 10, wasn't too interested when planning for this trip, and now I am slowly starting to think I'd really like to do it!</p> <p>I'd like to go to Magic Kingdom one night, and Epcot one night, I think.</p> <p>What would you do if you were in my shoes?? I like rides, good food, fireworks, etc. I know nothing about how to do Disney. I did see there's a reduced price for going after 5. Please share any advice/tips you might have - I know there are many of you who are really good at planning out the best Disney trips.</p> <p>Also - do you think I'm crazy for going by myself? Is this more fun with kids?</p> <p>Thanks! </p>
