Mobile Disney without park tickets - any ideas

Next year we not getting Disney tickets 😭 just universal and discovery cove. How can we still inject a little bit of Disney? So far I’m thinking a trip to Disney springs, mickeys back yard bbq and a visit to the Polynesian for a dole whip. Any other ideas?

Hire a boat on bay lake or Board Walk - we done this one year and it was lovely
Also, spend the afternoon at Animal Kingdom Lodge, plenty to see and do there

Yes, think it was outside yacht club. I think it was about $40 For half hour - 45 mins (was enough time for us) and yes easy to drive, I even had a go! We linked our music up to the bluetooth onboard and listened to music - the kids loved it

Mid-Morning visit to the Disney mini golf at Blizzard Beach? It's a fun hour or two and it's quite quiet early on in the day.

If you are into Star Wars, I can highly recommend The Void at Disney Springs. I booked it as a surprise for my DH and 3 kids (20, 18, 15) and they all loved it! Was definitely one of the highlights of the holiday for them. We didn't do any Disney parks, just SeaWorld, Aquatica, Busch Gardens and KSC. Didn't feel we missed out and it was more relaxing just working with a loose plan rather than having to worry about fastpasses etc.

Recommend the Boardwalk on an evening and also have read a lot of people riding the monorail around each of the 3 resorts around the Magic Kingdom loop.

Just had a look and this looks fab. My youngest is only 8 tho so not sure if he’ll be too young on website it’s not 100 per cent clear it just says recommended age over 10 and they reserve the right to refuse admission to under 10’s. Do you think it’s something an 8 year will manage?he loves his PS4 and plays on PS4 vr?
