Disney World has a reputation for being expensive — but sprinkled throughout the parks are magical freebies most guests don’t realise exist.
Free Ice Water: Any quick service restaurant will give you free cups of ice water. That’s around £4 saved per drink, and in Florida heat, you’ll want plenty.
Celebration Buttons: Celebrating a birthday, anniversary, or first trip? Guest Services will hand you a free button. Cast Members often give extra attention when they spot them.
Kidcot Fun Stops at EPCOT: Perfect for kids — each country pavilion has free activity stations with crafts and keepsakes.
Free Transport: The Skyliner, monorail, and ferries don’t require a park ticket. They’re attractions in themselves and a fun way to explore.
Free Photos: PhotoPass photographers are happy to take photos with your phone as well as their camera — you get the pro shot without paying for Memory Maker.
Disney magic doesn’t have to come with a price tag. With these hidden gems, you’ll stretch your budget and still create unforgettable memories.
