PixabayDisney World. Even now, those two words still conjure up an image of a magical, faraway place that I’ll never get to go to.
However, the childhood fantasy may be more attainable than you think, as there’s an offer going round for return flights to Orlando, as well as tickets to Walt Disney World thrown in, for £599.
The deal, from Wowcher, offers a seven night getaway in Orlando, flying from London or Manchester, and a two-day ticket to the Disney park.
DisneyThe package includes a stay at either the 4* Holiday Inn Orlando, or the Blue Tree Resort at Lake Buena Vista.
Also, if you want to spread the cost out, you can secure the booking with a £199 deposit and pay the rest later.
The offer expires on June 24 though, so be quick!
PixabayThe dates on offer are between September 1, 2018 and February 28, 2019, so the trip could make a late summer holiday, or perhaps even a Christmas escape for the family?
The two-day Disney park tickets also include a magic band, memory maker, fast pass and one round of mini golf. And if two days in the land of Disney isn’t enough, you can upgrade your passes, too.
For theme park fans, you’ll know these dates also mean a new, highly anticipated feature for the park which’ll be open by then – Toy Story Land.
The geniuses behind the creation of the park have concocted everything from a Slinky Dog Dash rollercoaster to Alien Swirling Saucers.
The park, which is set to open on June 30, will make visitors feel like toys in Andy’s back garden themselves, with oversized versions of fan favourite characters like Woody, Jessie, Buzz and Mr Potato Head littered around the park.
The Alien Swirling Saucers allow guests to spin around with the aliens in their toy flying saucers, while the infamous Pizza Palace ‘Claw’ appears overhead, reports The Sun.
DisneyThe other big ride, the Slinky Dog Dash rollercoaster, is a coaster for all the family to enjoy, which is brilliantly designed to look as though Andy has built it in his garden using his Mega Coaster Play Kit, with toys like Rex and Jessie dotted around alongside the coaster itself.
But it doesn’t stop there – oh no. The ride officially comes to an end with Wheezy standing in front of you, where you’re given a top notch performance of You’ve Got A Friend In Me from the breathless but loveable penguin.
As if it couldn’t get any better, Sage and the Green Army Man Drum Corps will apparently march around the park numerous times a day where they’ll play games with park visitors.
DisneyThis isn’t the only film-inspired park opening up soon, according to reports. Apparently, Universal Orlando is set to unveil some super big plans, including a Lord Of The Rings theme park, in the near future.
Universal are reportedly set to open a fourth park too – sparking rumours of a Harry Potter Ministry of Magic park, a Nintendo World and a Jurassic World.
Can’t wait!
