8. TTA at Night As the night winds to the close, head to Tomorrowland and hop aboard the Tomorrowland Transit Authority. In addition to being a phenomenally relaxing ride, guests will be treated to views of the twinkling neon lights in Tomorrowland, cool breezes, as well as brief views of Cinderella Castle and maybe even the fireworks depending on your ...

7. Evening Extra Magic Hours Between the four theme parks, Magic Kingdom offers guests the most time in the park after hours. During peak times, Magic Kingdom can be open to 1 or even 2 AM. Not only does the park take on a certain magical nature after dark, but at a certain point, guests will filter out allowing big ...

6. Astro Orbiter The tallest ride in the Magic Kingdom, the Astro Orbiter is really on the “third floor” of the Magic Kingdom – guests will be able to see over all of Tomorrowland, Storybook Circus, parts of Fantasyland, and into the Hub.  Add in the incredible views out of the park towards the Contemporary and you’ll definitely be adding ...

5. Nighttime Spectacular Happily Ever After is the nightly fireworks show at the Magic Kingdom – this show is a combination fireworks display and projection show on Cinderella Castle. We love taking a break from a nighttime fun to grab an ice cream cone or a Mickey pretzel and look up to the sky! Fireworks are always popular, so be ...

4. Walt Disney World Railroad Another relaxing journey you can take at night is to climb aboard the Walt Disney World Railroad for a nighttime ride.  Not only is the experience completely different at night, you’ll be able to notice things about the railroad that you’ve never noticed before.  Guests won’t be able to ride around the time of the ...

3. Evening Cruise Another attraction that takes on an added sense of mystery at night is the Jungle Cruise in Adventureland. The other added benefit of a nighttime cruise is that you won’t have to sit in the sweltering heat (or at least not as much) when on the boat. However, the jokes remain just as corny no matter what ...

Guests have a lot of options when it comes to touring the various parks at Walt Disney World. Extra Magic Hours at certain parks make it possible to start the day early or end the night late. Between the restaurants and entertainment at Disney Springs, the various nighttime shows and spectaculars at all of the parks, there is a lot ...

5. Location Paddlefish took the place of Fulton’s Crab House at Disney Springs. We love the central location of the restaurant. We were able to enjoy a few drinks at Jock Lindsey’s before our reservation (and had the weather cooperated, we would have gone to the Boathouse afterwards). This makes it a great choice no matter what you want to ...

4. Appetizer Menu Our first glance at the menu when we arrived at Paddlefish was at the appetizer menu since we had skipped breakfast in anticipation! There were many great options to curb our cravings – we opted for the lobster corn dogs – the lobster meat was plentiful and they were fried beautifully and served with a delicious spicy ...

3. Rooftop Bar Located on the third floor, Paddlefish is home to rooftop lounge/bar area. This is another benefit of the location – guests will be treated to views of all areas of Disney Springs, as well as the Saratoga Springs Resort across the water. We wanted to have a post-meal drink up there, but weren’t able to because of ...
