Whether you’re heading to Disneyland, Disney World, or one of Disney’s global parks (the newest, Disney Shanghai, is slated to open next spring), planning a Disney vacation can be a challenge.

Blogs to help you plan
To help you plan the best vacation for you and your family, or just get your Disney fix while you’re at work, here are some of our favorite Disney blogs:
- Disney Food Blog – Everything you need to know about eating at Disney. This blog has menus and reviews for all restaurants, tips for making reservations and keeping your budget in check, as well as tons of pictures to make you hungry. You’re welcome.
- Disney Tourist Blog – Great all-around blog that includes trip guides for all five Disney parks. We love the section dedicated to trip reports, where you can get the play-by-play of all kinds of trips to the parks, with lots of pictures!
- AllEars.net – So maybe it’s not a blog (although it has a section with multiple awesome blogs to choose from), it’s a great site with up-to-date info on all things Disney.
- Running at Disney – One of the major draws to Disney parks are runDisneyraces, held several times throughout the year. If you’re thinking about running a Disney race, check out this blog for helpful tips and info.
- WDW News Today – This site keeps you updated with the latest Disney news. It also has a podcast and–our favorite– a listening section that plays music from the parks!
- Ferdalump – Ok, so this may not help you plan your vacation, and it’s not a blog (sorry not sorry), but it is the cutest thing ever. Watch this little girl charm everyone in the parks in her adorable Disney-themed outfits handmade by her mom.
Word of caution: you may get sucked into the Disney information blackhole (we don’t hate it in there), so just be prepared.
Now go forth, and plan your best Disney vacation yet!
