I grew up near Orlando and went a lot as a kid. Have only been twice since having kids. So, definitely not an expert. But the best advice I could give is be ready to make the genie (I think that’s what’s it’s called - used to be called fast pass) reservations right at 7 AM. First day we were there 2 years ago, I got out of the shower and tried to book a few at about 7:15 AM and anything you’d want a fast pass for was already sold out for the day.Going later this summer and have only been once before.

I didn’t take Uncle Ruckus as an adult that would go to Disney without kids*****No kids
Are you threatened by a guy wearing a dress? Says more about you than that person.This is so unbelievable.
Our world is so 17-up.
Decide now that whatever happens you're not gonna get pissed off. It's the Happiest Place on Earth and you can walk around there all day watching people be miserable and making the people they're with miserable. Don't be that person. It's gonna be expensive, just be cool with that, do what others have said and find someone who's familiar to explain the system to you. It's formidable for a newcomer but it's not that complicated. Just don't be the mad parents being pissed off that stuff is expensive or that you're standing in line. It's part of it.Going later this summer and have only been once before.

They don't do fast passes anymore. You have to know and understand how the genie works. You have to know how many reservations you can make for rides at any given time. You need to understand the waiting times for rides as you can book one, wait in line for another, and get two rides into the time frame of 1 ride. Save the rides with 1 hr or less wait times for your filler rides and book the longer ones as your reservations.The easy answer is, find a Disney based travel agent. They’re free and can give u all kinds of tips for your style of group. And may can find a deal or two that aren’t publicized. They’re especially helpful with dining reservations and fast passes.
A few specific tips if u have kids:
1. Drive; and bring a bin of food and such. When kids are hungry, they’re hungry right now. Each park day we had a backpack with at least about 4 peanut butter sandwiches, 2 apples, 2 bananas, 4 packs of fruit snacks, and a bag of goldfish; just for our 5 year old. Waiting in lines with a hungry kid is no fun.
2a. If u have kids less than 10, rent a stroller. U can easily walk 7-8 miles a day there, and when you’re rushing to get to a ride, u can plop them in the stroller and zoom. And u can use it for storage while you’re on a ride. Saw lots of adults with handfuls of bags and souvenirs in their arms trying to get on rides.
2b. And like i said, rent the stroller. There’s companies that will drop it off at your resort and pick it up the day u leave. Strollers take up a lot of space in a vehicle.
3. Stay at a resort with a cafeteria. All of the value resorts and some of the medium resorts have them. They have a good variety of options, and they’re so convenient after a long day.
4. Ultimately, all of the resorts are neat in their own way. We happen to like the Port Orleans ones; they have great beignets at the French Quarter.
5,6,7. Don’t go in the summer. Yowchers.
Are you already booked? If not, for adults, I would recommend universal. Better rides and much easier experience. Only reason to go to Disney to me is if you just grew up with Disney movies and still have the nostalgia for all things Disney. Disney also apparently has better food but we never do anything but the fastest options anyway. Just too many awesome places with better food for cheaper to go to to spend time scheduling around good food in Disney. But we go with kids; if we didn't have kids, maybe we'd be more willing to take time to eat.Going later this summer and have only been once before. What are the musts to do for you regulars?

^This. You add, many people there will be aholes, cut in line, invade your space, etc. It's too many people in too small a space, all stressed trying to fit in too much to do in too small a time. Just go in knowing that with the attitude to let it all go. Otherwise you'll be miserable, and why bother.Decide now that whatever happens you're not gonna get pissed off.

Also, some of the best riding happens during and after the fireworks. You can walk onto the busiest rides there right after the fireworks until close.
