Are you planning your next family camping trip to Florida to see Mickey and Minnie Mouse? It is difficult to find economical ways to travel with a family. Especially, if one is on a limited budget. Therefore, explore your options of planning a camping trip instead. Consider these four tips when planning your trip, campground options, ticket prices, transportation costs, and attractions to see.
Fort Wilderness has easy access to all theme parks because of location on Disney property. They provide space for RVs, pop ups, and tenting. Cost of camping per night starts as low as $45.00 dollars. Of course, camping means inexpensive sleeping quarters for the family as well as cheaper food options. As you visit any standard campgrounds, families are busy at night cooking over a charcoal grill or camp stove. Moreover, during the day having the options to make and carry their own lunches. Thus, allowing the price kept to a minimum.
Ticket Prices
The longer you stay the cheaper your ticket options. Thus, consider staying for at least seven nights. The "Magic Your Way Base Tickets," for seven days of fun are around $34.00 dollars plus tax, which allow you to enter one theme park per day. The parks included are Magic Kingdom, Epcot, Animal Kingdom, and Hollywood Studios.
Transportation Costs
Moreover, since you are staying on Disney property your transportation options are either by boat or bus to the theme parks. Thus, leaving your car behind and not worrying about the added cost of parking your car. Of course, you will have the expense of driving to Orlando, Florida. Thus, comparing a family of four airfare prices to what it may cost to drive with the ups and downs of gas prices.
Attractions
Of course, each theme park is remarkable in itself. The castle of Magic Kingdom is the center of attention at this park. The castle is beautiful at night with changing colorful lights, Tinker Bell flying, and the dazzling fireworks display. At Epcot a must stop are Soarin', the Test Track, and all the countries wrapped around the lagoon. Next stop is Hollywood Studios where you will experience high-speed rides and live stunt performances on the Indiana Jones stage or at Lights Motors, Action stage. Lastly, the Animal Kingdom theme park must stops are The Tree of Life, Kilimanjaro Safari ride, and The Everest roller coaster ride.
Finally, enjoy your family vacation at the Fort Wilderness campground. Not only will you have access to all theme parks, but there is a lot of terrific family activities right at the park. Moreover, your pocket book will thank you besides your family.

Top-level comments on this article: (2 total)I think Fort Wilderness is one of Walt Disney World's hidden gems. Whether you choose to bring your own RV or stay in one of the log cabins the prices are reasonable and there are lots of activities to keep the family occupied. They host a free campfire/movie night that you can go to even if you're not staying at FW itself too.
Clare apologize for late response, I appreciate your comments. This is a great place to camp with the family.
