I’d like to introduce you to Disney’s Express Transportation! At first I wasn’t so sure about spending the $29 per person fee but it turned out to be a great investment. My parents are in their mid-sixties and park hopping with a teenager along with their
Tiffins Signature Dining in Animal Kingdom
After an exciting nighttime safari ride and disembarking from our Kilimanjaro Safari truck, I had the opportunity and pleasure to experience one of the best high-end restaurants on Walt Disney World Resort’s property, Tiffins.
