📬 Another postcard from Walt Disney World... 💜⚜️

This stop brings us to Disney's Port Orleans – French Quarter.

If someone asked me which moderate resort feels the most unique, French Quarter would be at the top of my list.

It's Disney's smallest resort, which means everything is just a short walk away. The atmosphere is relaxed, the boat ride to Disney Springs is one of my favorite ways to end the day, and yes... the Mickey-shaped beignets are absolutely worth the hype. 🤍

It's one of those resorts that feels like you've discovered a hidden gem. Slower-paced, full of character, and a perfect reminder that some of the best Disney moments happen long after you've left the parks.

📮 Have you stayed at Port Orleans – French Quarter, or is it still on your Disney bucket list?

✨ Hi, I'm Kate!

I'm the travel advisor behind Travel with Kate, and if we've never met... here's a little about me. 💙

I'm a Disney-loving, cold brew-fueled planner who believes the best vacations aren't just trips... they're the memories you'll still be talking about years later.

When I'm not helping families plan their next adventure, you'll probably find me exploring Disney parks on both coasts, hunting down the best seasonal snacks, counting down to Halloween and Christmas at Disney, or stopping for just one more PhotoPass picture. 📸

I'm a Walt Disney World Annual Passholder, a Disneyland Magic Key holder, and most importantly, someone who genuinely loves helping others experience the magic I love so much.

Whether you're planning your very first Disney vacation, your fifteenth, or you're just here because we both think cold brew tastes better on Main Street... I'm so glad you're here. ☕🏰

I'd love to get to know you too!

🎄✨ If Walt Disney World at Christmas has been on your bucket list... this might be your sign to go.

Disney+ Perks members can save up to 25% on select Disney Resorts Collection hotels and receive FREE Park Hopper benefits when booking a qualifying vacation package.

I put together a few sample vacations to show what this offer could look like across different resort categories—from a value resort all the way up to a deluxe stay.

There's just something special about Walt Disney World during the holidays. From the decorations and festive treats to Mickey's Very Merry Christmas Party and EPCOT's Festival of the Holidays, it's one of my favorite times to visit.

✨ If you've been waiting for the right time to experience Disney at Christmas, this is a great opportunity to start planning.

🎬 Another postcard from Walt Disney World! ✨

This stop brings us to Disney's All-Star Movies Resort—where larger-than-life Disney favorites and movie magic take center stage.

If you're looking for a resort that's fun, colorful, and full of Disney nostalgia without stretching the vacation budget, this one is definitely worth considering. It's one of those resorts that reminds you Disney magic doesn't start when you walk through the park gates... it starts the moment you check in.

One of my favorite things? Walking through the different movie-themed courtyards and spotting all the oversized Disney icons. It truly feels like you've stepped onto your own movie set. 🎥✨

📬 If you've stayed at All-Star Movies, I'd love to know...

📸 Are you Team "Stop for every PhotoPass photographer"... or Team "Skip it and keep walking?"

I'll go first...

🙋🏼‍♀️ I stop. Every. Single. Time.

Same castle?
Yep.

Same outfit?
Absolutely.

Same park?
Probably. 😂

I honestly don't think you can ever have too many Disney photos.

Memory Maker is one of the few Disney "extras" that's an absolute non-negotiable for me.

If you add it before your trip, it's $185 and includes unlimited digital downloads of all your Disney PhotoPass and attraction photos for your entire vacation.

But the real reason I love it?

✨ The Magic Shots.

You never know what's going to pop into your picture—Tinker Bell, balloons, Disney characters, seasonal surprises... the PhotoPass Cast Members always make it so much fun.

And the best part? Everyone gets to be in the picture. No asking strangers to take your photo, no one missing from the memories.

So yes... if you see me in the parks, there's a pretty good chance I'm standing in yet another PhotoPass line. 😂

Anyone else feel like once the 4th of July is over... it's officially spooky season? 🎃

I don't care what the calendar says (or the fact it's 95° outside 😂). In my mind, we're decorating with pumpkins, watching Hocus Pocus, and planning Mickey's Not-So-Scary Halloween Party.

If Halloween at Walt Disney World is on your bucket list, this is your sign to start planning.

🎃 Current Walt Disney World offers can save you money on select resort stays during Halloween season.

🎟️ And if you're hoping to attend Mickey's Not-So-Scary Halloween Party, don't wait too long. Party dates are already beginning to sell out.

Currently sold out:
👻 August 11
👻 August 14
👻 August 18
👻 October 13
👻 October 31

Whether it's your first party or your tenth (I'm definitely not judging 😅), I'll help you figure out the best dates, choose the right resort, grab your party tickets, and make the most of your trip.

Now tell me...

🎃 Are you Team Halloween in July/August... or do you refuse to celebrate until October?

📬 Another postcard from Walt Disney World...

This stop brings us to Disney's Wilderness Lodge. 🌲✨

Every time I stay here, I'm reminded why this resort is one of my favorites.

It has this incredible way of making you feel like you've escaped to a national park, even though you're just a quick boat ride from Magic Kingdom. It's the kind of place where I never feel rushed. I find myself lingering in the lobby, taking the long way back to my room, or grabbing a quiet spot by the water just to soak it all in.

Don't get me wrong—I love a park day from rope drop to fireworks. But Wilderness Lodge reminds me that sometimes slowing down is part of the vacation too.

Have you experienced Wilderness Lodge, or do you have another Disney resort you'll always choose first? 🏞️💚

🎄 Christmas in July? Don't mind if I do! 🎄

If seeing Walt Disney World during the holidays has been on your bucket list, now is one of the best times to start planning.

From Mickey's Very Merry Christmas Party and Disney Jollywood Nights to resort gingerbread displays, festive snacks, EPCOT's Festival of the Holidays, and Christmas decorations around every corner... there's truly nothing like Disney during the most magical time of the year. ✨

One of the biggest mistakes I see? Waiting until fall to start planning.

Holiday party tickets can sell out, popular resorts book quickly, and the best dining reservations don't last long. Planning now gives you the best chance at getting the dates and experiences you really want.

Whether your dream holiday includes:
🎅 Snow on Main Street, U.S.A.
🎄 Resort hopping to see the Christmas decorations
🍪 Holiday treats and festive entertainment
✨ A special ticketed holiday party..or all of the above, I'd love to help you make it happen.

📩 Let's start planning your Disney Christmas vacation before the holiday rush begins!

Did you know Disney has guided vacations? 👀

And no... I don't mean a VIP Tour.

I'm talking about Adventures by Disney—Disney's premium guided travel experience that takes the same storytelling, service, and attention to detail you expect in the parks... and brings it to destinations around the world.

This itinerary is one of my favorites:
✨ Disneyland Resort + Southern California

Imagine...
🏰 Walking through Walt's Apartment above the Fire Station
🎬 Touring the Walt Disney Studios Lot
📚 Visiting the Walt Disney Archives
✨ Stepping inside Walt Disney Imagineering
🚗 Going behind the scenes in Cars Land
🌈 Ending the day with VIP viewing for World of Color

And the best part? Disney handles almost everything.

You'll travel with Adventure Guides, enjoy VIP access, stay at incredible hotels, and simply soak it all in without worrying about the logistics.

But here's the really cool part...

Disney doesn't just do California.

They offer Adventures across the United States and all over the world—including Alaska, Italy, Greece, England, Japan, South Africa, the Galápagos Islands, river cruises throughout Europe, expedition cruises, and so much more.

If you've ever wished Disney could plan your entire vacation... they already do. ❤️

I'd love to help you find the Adventure that's right for you.

✨ Message me if you'd like to learn more or get a quote!

Every summer, somehow, we end up right back here.🤍

A few days of chasing content, drinking way too much coffee, eating everything that sounded good, attempting a waterpark (thanks, Florida⛈️), squeezing in 4 parks in 1 day.

Our annual AP/content trip has become one of my favorite traditions. A few days with one of my fav people, a lot of Disney Magic, and the reminder that this place never stops feeling like home.

Until next time, Disney ❤️
