DLP - where do we start ?

We are thinking of booking a short break for two adults to DLP.
Because OH is a teacher we either go in the summer holidays or make a long weekend of it coming back Monday night (she doesn't work mondays)

So we are at the beginning of the research process.

If this was you who would you book through and why ,

Thanks in advance

BB

Greetings BB.

I've always booked direct with the Mouse, but do check the various country specific websites. This year we bagged 35% off and free half board at Davy Crockett Ranch from the German site for the same price as the UK offer which was offering only 20% off.

We’ve always gone during May half term, booked via Magic Breaks. I’d say avoid weekends if you can as all the locals descend. Mid week is definitely quieter.

We booked with Disney direct. You can also book through Disney direct but on the various countries such as the German/ Dutch/French sites as they quite often have different offers on. If you are on a pc google will translate.

If you can, try to avoid August as the whole of Europe will be there. And us this year too lol

The trouble is that BB has just said something like ",we could do a week in Florida for a decent price too "

No jet lag. Less than a day away. Better rides (Space Mountain, Phantom Manor, BTM, Ratatouille). Walk to and between each park.

But if you want WDW, then go to WDW

Definitely avoid weekends - whatever time of year weekends can double the crowds
