We are trying to talk lots of family into a multi-generational trip in a couple years. Eleven people total, at the time the youngest would be five up through grandparents. If staying for seven days what would your itinerary look like? If this was a once in a lifetime trip with a laid back feel how would you plan?
Nothing concrete planned yet but I like to dream about it!
It greatly depends on what your interests are and what you would like to do.
I agree with the above posts, it may be best not to do everything together as trying to cater for everyone may be quite tough. The big questions to start is whether you stay on site or off site. Personally I would stay on site because of the convenience and accessibility.
Accomodation:
Children-
For a child the best accomodation would be those that are Disney themed. The All Star Resorts, Pop Century and Art of Animation are all Disney themed and the bonus is they are quite inexpensive for Disney standards.
Adults-
Once again it depends upon your tastes with a plethora of hotels to choose from.
Personally I would stay at either Old Key West or The Cabins at Fort Wilderness.
Parks-
I don't necessarily think all 7 days at the parks will be the most suitable for everyone. However I would do the following.
Day 1- Magic Kingdom
Day 2- Hollywood Studios
Day 3- Rest
Day 4- Epcot
Day 5- Rest or Additional Park (personally I would do Magic Kingdom again)
Day 6- Animal Kingdom
Day 7 - Rest or Additional Park (if you are feeling up to it I would do Hollywood Studios again)
*in a couple of years there will also be an number of new attractions, hotels and lands at the parks
Star Wars Galaxy's Edge
Toy Story Land
Star Wars Themed Hotel
Epcot Refurb (somewhat completed)
Guardians of the Galaxy (2021)
Ratatouille Ride (2021)
Tron Coaster (2021)
Mickey and Minnies Runaway Railway (2021)
If you were to go in 2021 and I know that is touch more than a couple of years the Magic Kingdom will be a 2 day park, Epcot 1 / 2 park, Animal Kingdom 1 day park, Hollywood Studios 1 / 2 day park.
