Our proper good guide to Walt Disney World, Florida

The great outdoors

There’s Disney's Typhoon Lagoon and Blizzard Beach Water Parks of course, but there’s fun to be had ON the water as well as IN it. At Disney’s Fort Wilderness Resort & Campgrounds it’s buyer’s choice – rent either a canoe or a kayak and enact your own version of Steamboat Willie through lakes, lagoons and bays.

If it’s dry land you’re after, live your childhood dream by renting a golf cart. Alternatively, you can give horseback riding a whirl – explore the ranches that house Cinderella’s ponies before taking part in a trail ride. Giddy up!

FORE!

Being located in the sunshine state of Florida, there’s one thing in particular we’d better mention: golfing. The Floridians sure do love their five irons and drivers and er, what’s the other one? Anyway, there are four different courses at Walt Disney World - Magnolia, Palm, and Lake Buena Vista with 18 holes, and Oak Trail has 9. Strictly 18 and over, sorry kids, it's for the serious grown ups only. What the kids can get in on, however, are the two miniature golf courses on site.

Over at EPCOT there’s the Fantasia Gardens and Fairways Miniature Golf, while at Blizzard Beach Water Park it’s the Winter Summerland Miniature Golf Course – this one has a summer sand course and a winter snow course. Fun!
