  1. 1.) Free e-postcards with your photo at Mission Space & Image Works

    2.) Free Campfire Sing-Along with Chip & Dale at Ft. Wilderness.

    3.) Free monorail "license" when you ride up front.

    4.) Free "Birthday" or "First Trip to Disney World" pins at guest services.

    5.) Free "First Rollercoaster Ride" card for little ones at Goofy's Barnstormer.

    •  In Disney-MGM Studios, there is a “Singing in the Rain” umbrella attached to a lamp post.  It is a great photo opportunity and a pressure pad under the umbrella usually (unless malfunctioning) will release “rain”.  The lamp post is in the Streets of America area across from Lights, Motors, Action!

    •  As you exit Star Tours (outside of the gift shop) in Disney-MGM Studios, you’ll see a “Speeder Bike” in front of an Endor background.  People often assume that it is only for display but you are welcome to sit on it - this makes a great picture.  Other wonderful photo opportunities in Disney-MGM Studios are the car outside Sci-Fi Dine In and all over the Honey, I Shrunk the Kids play area.

    •  In Animal Kingdom, there is a bridge near Kali River Rapids.  There are buttons that cause the elephant statues to spray water on the riders in the rafts below.  

    •  The Animal Kingdom Times Guide does a terrible job of highlighting all the wonderful live entertainment available at this park.  One of our favorites are “DiVine” on the trail between Asia and Africa.  She looks like a vine and literally blends in with the landscaping when she isn’t moving.  Two other excellent groups are the Karuka Acrobats and the Tam Tam’s of Congo which both perform in the Harambe area of the “Africa” area.  

    • Did you know that closing time at the Magic Kingdom just means you must be on your last ride or in line for the ride by that time?  The shops along Main Street generally stay open for about an hour after closing time.  There’s no good reason to rush to the lines forming for transportation so take your time and enjoy a few last views of the castle when it is lit up after dark.  Stop and notice the window displays in the Emporium (right side of the street as you face the train station, near City Hall).  Each window display is a shadow-box or diorama that depicts a different Disney animated movie and most have some form of movement.  Most people walk right by and never notice these fascinating displays.

  3. There are quite a few... like where it is haunted (for reals) and a lot more... but if you email me i will tell you.

  4. As a travel agent, I have to mention this one because it is my favorite Disney Resort and a secret tip that alot of guests do not know about!  Disney's Wilderness Lodge Resort has flags on the very top of the resort.  Each morning, Disney selects a family (that is staying at Disney's Wilderness Lodge Resort) to help raise the flags.  You have an amazing view at the top of Disney's Wilderness Lodge Resort.  Did I also mention this is a free activity!  After you help raise the flags, you are invited to the Concierge Lounge for a free continental breakfast.  

    As a Disney Cast Member, I have to mention this one.  Next time you are inside the library at Tower of Terror, look around.  Most of the decorations (up high) in this room are straight from the TV series.

    Have fun!


  5. I am going next month and i have found a lot of cool things i didn't know on the internet. There is a lot so it is going to be kind of long...

    -In the shop Tinkerbell's Treasures in the Magic Kingdom (behind the castle) there is a little dresser up against the wall with a keyhole in one of the drawers. If you put your eye up to the keyhole you can see a little light and hear a bell as if Tinkerbell was stuck in the drawer

    If you are the first to visit this in the morning, you get to be the one to wake her up.

    .

    -In Cosmic Ray's Starlight Cafe in Tomorrowland there are talking garbage cans along the left wall in the main area. (Look for the electrical cords leading to them)(first you have to put something in them.)

    -Go into Muppet Vision 3D, at the entrance turnstiles on the right is a ticket window with a notice that says - "Closed - Key under Mat". I have read that you should look under the mat and see if the key is really there.

    -Just by the Indiana Jones show, there are some crates hidden in the bushes, which are marked 'don't open' - go ahead & open them!

    -Again, Near Indiana Jones is a well with a rope in it, pull the rope for a surprise

    -If you pick up the telephones in the stores along Main Street in the Magic Kingdom, you can hear funny conversations.

    -In the shop next to Pizza Planet in DHS you’ll see several large wooden packing crates. Try lifting the lids of a few of them.

    -I have heard there is a hidden paintbrush on Tom Sawyer's Island in the MK and if you find it first you get a prize.

    -Outside of Tony's restaurant in the MK, if you sit on Goofy, he laughs.

    -At the Haunted Mansion, there is a tombstone outside on the far right of the cemetary of a woman and every couple of minutes, she opens her eyes and looks around.

    - There is a hedge maze in the back of the UK in Epcot

    That is all I can remember right now. Hope that is the kind of info you were looking for.

  6. " have heard there is a hidden paintbrush on Tom Sawyer's Island in the MK and if you find it first you get a prize."

    This is true, I believe you get a certificate and a dream fastpass for the day but you have to be one the first boat over there or gauranteed someone else will get it first. I believe there are two or three painbrushes.

    -On some of the shops on Main St. in Magic Kingdom you can hear people talking inside. For instance, if you walk by the dance studio you can hear kids tap dancing and a "lesson" going on.

    -Magic Kingdom is actually above ground. The people who work there, cast members actually have their lockers and break rooms below Main St. in the kingdom. This is how workers in costumes can also pop up out of nowhere.

    -There is a new dream suite that you can win a night in Cinderella's castle. When the park was being built this space was supposed to be a apartment for Walt and his family to live in but since he passed away before the park opened they used it for storage, until now.

    -The best way to win "dreams" such as the ultimate fastpass for the day, mickey ears or that night in cinderellas castle is to get to the parks early in the morning. That is usually when they're handed out.

    -There is a pay phone in tomorrowland in Magic Kingdom and if you pick it up you can hear Sunny Eclipses manager on the other end who also happens to be the fake alien singer in the restaurant Cosmic Rays in Tomorrowland.

    I hope you have a great trip!
