Dan and Leslie from Addicted to the Mouse are parents of two boys who have fallen in love with Walt Disney World so much that they are moving their family to Orlando to be close to the magic! They often hear friends and family say that Disney is only for kids, but couldn't disagree more. The couple hopes to guide families on ways to experience and enjoy Disney destinations either with or without kids. Disney can be amazing as a couples only destination as well! Join Dan and Leslie as they take you through the Magic Kingdom, Epcot, Animal Kingdom, Hollywood Studios, Disney Springs, Disneyland, Aulani, Disney Cruise Line, Disney Vacation Club, and all of the Disney resort hotels. Join them at Addicted to the Mouse for more travel planning advice to some of their other favorite destinations, including Universal Studios and International travel.

Disney Dining Plan…Should You or Shouldn’t You?

On today’s Disney Podcast, we are diving deep into the Disney Dining Plan and figuring out if it’s worth it for you. Whether it is the Quick Service Dining Plan or the Disney Dining Plan, guests have been pre-paying for meals and snacks at Walt Disney World since the program came back in early 2024, after the shutdowns. The plans are different than they used to be though… The last time we discussed dining plans in-depth was when they came back nearly two years ago. So, it’s time to take another look to see if the value is really there when it comes to purchasing a Disney Dining Plan. Enjoy!
