Overview

Disney’s Port Orleans French Quarter takes guests back in time to experience the romance and adventure of the mighty Mississippi and good old Southern hospitality. Located just one mile from Epcot, this colourful resort creates the Big Easy the family-friendly way, where you can enjoy boat trips along Mississippi-style waterways, colourful Mardi Gras characters and horse-drawn excursions by the Sassagoula River.

Why we love it

The theming is grand and classical, yet still very Disney at the same time. Aside from all the wonderful dining experiences that this Moderate Hotel offers, we love the fun campfire activities and watching Disney Movies Under the Stars.

  • Fun park, we enjoyed the Indiana Jones show. Toy Story land was fun. The second day we visited all the big/thrill rides were down for a significant part of the morning which was disappointing but overall we enjoyed the park.

  • We loved Animal Kingdom! We went expecting to only spend 1/2 a day but we were there for over 10 hours, there is so much to see. We loved it all, my personal highlight was the Safari it was so informative and being able to be so close to the animals was awesome. We managed to go on every ride and see all the shows, the lion king is a must do. Make sure you get Memory Maker, we have so many beautiful photos.

  • We loved Hollywood Studios, it was clean, all of the cast members were friendly, the rides were amazing. We dined at 50’s Prime Time, Sci Fi Dining and had some drinks at Ogas Cantina. We had a lot of photos taken as Memory Maker was included with our tickets. We were lucky enough to go to Hollywood Studios twice while visiting WDW as we purchased a 14 day magic ticket from Attraction Tickets UK.

  • We spent two full days at Epcot. My family have an amazing time eating and drinking around the world. I loved the Mexican Pavilion where I got the best Pina Colada ever. We were lucky to have been able to go on every ride more than once. We dined at Space 220, it was hands down our favourite WDW restaurant. The theming was amazing and the food was 10/10. We have so many photos of our time in Epcot thanks to Memory Maker

  • I cried when I saw the Castle at Magic Kingdom for the first time. Everything was so beautiful, we were excited to see all of the Christmas Decorations still up. We spent 3 days at Magic Kingdom ( thanks to our 14 day magic ticket),we managed to ride everything multiple times, we dined at Be our Guest and Cinderellas Royal table both dining experiences were amazing. I have so many photos because Memory Maker was included. It was the best holiday ever
