Disney World Water Parks, Tours & More

LAST UPDATE: 1/16/20

If you buy a multi-day ticket to the Walt Disney World theme parks and stay for a week or less, you’ll probably find that you can’t begin to explore all the entertainment options that are INCLUDED in the park passes, between the rides, parades, fireworks, and a zillion other Disney World activities.

However, the time may come when you’ll want to get out of the Disney theme parks and do something different, like riding the wild slides at Disney’s water parks, taking a backstage tour, getting a relaxing massage at one of the Disney spas, playing a round of golf on one of Disney’s award-winning courses, or enjoying any of the dozens of other Disney World attractions.

Naturally, Disney has plenty of ways to separate you from your money if you want to enjoy these extras. There are some discounts, deals and bargains available for almost every activity you can name, however, and we’ve gathered them in one place here! Disney World vacation packages include discounts and vouchers for some of the activities on this page as well. Check our Disney Resort Hotel vacation package details page to see the current discounts that are included with a vacation package.

There are currently two Disney water parks: Blizzard Beach and Typhoon Lagoon. Both are wonderfully themed and have great water slides as well as quieter areas to just float.

Cirque du Soleil – Drawn to Life

A new Cirque du Soleil show called Drawn to Life is coming to Disney Springs. It will open for previews March 20, 2020, and officially premieres on April 17, 2020.

Drawn to Life follows the story of Julie, a courageous and determined girl who discovers an unexpected gift left by her late father: an unfinished animation piece. Guided by a surprising pencil, she embarks on an inspiring quest sprinkled with her Disney childhood memories. Through this journey, she learns to imagine new possibilities and animate the story of her future. This show is a collaboration between Cirque du Soleil, Walt Disney Animation Studios and Walt Disney Imagineering and will feature acrobatic performances, amazing costumes, live music and whimsical characters.

While it’s expensive, most people (including us) find Cirque du Soleil shows well worth the price. You can order tickets online, or by phone at (855) 473-7783 or (702) 352-0221. From March 20 – April 16, 2020, shows are at 5:30 pm. Staring April 18, 2020, shows are at 5:30 and 8:30 pm. There are no performances on Sundays or Mondays.

Regular Cirque du Soleil Prices and Info

Our main comment would be that there are NO horrible seats in this theater. It’s not super-critical to be centered to the stage with a Cirque du Soleil show, because a lot of the show will place in the air and there is usually a lot going on all the time — if you miss something on one section of the stage, there’s generally plenty of other activity on another part of the stage to watch! We think the big decision is whether you want to be super close (to see the performers’ faces) or further up (so you’re not craning your neck to watch the aerial acts).

There are 6 categories of seats – each represented by a color. If you want very good seats, go for the Blue section and see if you can get a discount. If you want to see the show but you’re on a tight budget, consider the Green or Tan sections. We don’t think you’ll be disappointed.

Please note: there is a $9.95 service charge per ticket online.

• Yellow Section seats are $190.63 per adult (age 10 and up), $154.43 per child (age 3-9), tax included. We do not think the premium price for these seats is justified. While this location provides a centered, close-up view (you can see many of the performers’ facial expressions clearly), you are looking up a lot because so much of the action takes place overhead.
• Purple Section seats are $165.08 per adult (age 10 and up), $133.13 per child (age 3-9), tax included. These seats are not worth the extra money, in our opinion. While the seats provide a centered, close-up view (you can see many of the performers’ facial expressions clearly), you are looking up a lot because so much of the action takes place overhead.
• Pink Section seats are $148.04 per adult (age 10 and up), $116.09 per child (age 3-9), tax included. Some of the seats provide a close-up view (you can see many of the performers’ facial expressions clearly) but you are looking up a lot because so much of the action takes place overhead. Other seats in this category are very good, but it’s questionable whether they are better than some Blue Section seats.
• Blue Section (BEST VALUE, in our opinion) seats are $116.09 per adult (age 10 and up), $94.79 per child (age 3-9), tax included. These seats are either close to the stage but off to the side, or high up but relatively center. These are very good seats, especially if you can get the sections closer to the back and in the center, where you are looking straight across at the aerial activities and down at the stage. This is the ticket category that is most often discounted, and we highly recommend it.
• Green Section seats are $101.18 per adult (age 10 and up), $84.14 per child (age 3-9), tax included. Some of these seats are in the extreme upper corners of the theater. The rest are very close to the stage. In either case,  you can see fine but you are quite off-center relative to the stage.
• Tan Section seats are $84.14 per adult (age 10 and up), $69.23 per child (age 3-9), tax included. These seats are located on the extreme upper corners of the theater. You can see okay but you are extremely off-center relative to the stage.

• Note that you can bring your own princess costume and accessories from home and save a fortune vs. buying them at the Boutique! Thanks to Carla C for info.

Boating, Water Sports & Biking

We always have a fantastic time buzzing around Bay Lake on the little Sea Raycers (formerly called “water mice”) available for rent at Wilderness Lodge and other resorts. These and many other types of boats can be rented at Walt Disney World.

At Caribbean Beach, Coronado Springs, Port Orleans, Old Key West, Saratoga Springs, Wilderness Lodge and Fort Wilderness, you can rent bicycles. Helmets and child seats are provided. At Boardwalk, Coronado Springs, Old Key West, Saratoga Springs and Port Orleans, you can rent “surrey bikes” which are like small covered pedal cars for 2, 4 or 6 people. You do not need to be staying at the resort to rent bicycles or surrey bikes. All of the resorts have designated loops you are allowed to bike on (though you’re welcome to stop along the way and take a break or look at the scenery). No reservations are needed; it’s first-come, first-served.

• Disney World Annual and Seasonal Passholders get 15% off the regular price of boat, bicycle, and Surrey Bike rentals at any Walt Disney World Marina. (Excludes Specialty Cruises, Holiday Event Specialty Cruises, the Grand 1 Yacht, and Surrey Bike Rentals at BoardWalk Inn.) Certain age restrictions apply.

Character Couture

Guests of all ages can get a hairstyle or makeup look based on a Disney character or theme. Professional stylists work their magic to help you get into character during your visit to the parks or at a special event. Services will take anywhere from 30 minutes to 2 hours, depending on the service selected. Unlike Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutique, where kids choose from pre-set hairstyle and makeup options, the licensed cosmetologists at Character Couture can work with you to create a look more tailored to your features and preferences.

There are several locations offering Character Couture:

• The Salon in the Grand Floridian Resort & Spa
• Salon by the Springs in the Wilderness Lodge
• La Vida Salon at Coronado Springs Resort
• Ship Shape Salon at the Yacht & Beach Club Resort

This is actually a very nice complex to see sporting events, and they host many different amateur sports events pretty much year-round. There is an admission fee to enter the complex, but there’s not much to see or do unless there’s a game going on, and nearly any game will have its own admission tickets which include admission to the complex.

• If you have Disney World Tickets with the Park Hopper Plus option (formerly Water Park Fun & More), you can use one or more of the “visits” for admission to ESPN Wide World of Sports.

They can usually assist you in experiencing the attractions with minimal waits (you don’t always skip the lines, but they know which rides will have the shortest lines at which times and in many cases they are allowed to use the FastPass+ entrance). When you set up a Private Premium VIP Tour, you can also request restaurant reservations, special viewing areas for certain shows and parades, etc. The cost is $400-$600 per hour for up to 10 guests (varies seasonally and higher rate applies if booked less than 48 hours in advance).
