Okay, so you’ve done it: you’ve planned a trip to Disney World. You’ve done the hard work of figuring out a budget, deciding how long to stay, picking out your hotel, and getting your park tickets.
Cinderella Castle
Well, before you think you’re done with all the planning, there’s something you may NOT be thinking about: what you’re going to need in Disney World. There are certain items you’ll want to pack in your suitcase or day bag to make sure you have the best trip possible. We’re going to help you with that!

So, let’s get to those things that the smartest of Disney World visitors always get!
Get the Handheld Mini Fan
Amazon
We’ll say it as many times as it takes, but it gets very hot and humid in Florida, even in the fall and winter. If you want to stay cool, having one of these handheld mini fans can make a huge difference. This one is easy to carry around because it’s rechargeable via USB!
Buy the 4-Pack of Cooling Towels
Cooling towels
We also think cooling towels are a GREAT way to stay cool — we even keep these towels in our day bag EVERY DAY. You just wet them and put them around your neck, and you’ll feel better even on the hottest of days.
Buy the Hoka One Women’s Running Shoe

Another thing that can make or break your Disney World trip is your shoes. Wear the wrong shoes and you’ll be in pain and limping within DAYS. We love these Hokas because they let us do all that walking with all-day comfort.
Get the Mini Backpack Organizer
ALL our stuff is organized now
The only real problem we have with Loungefly backpacks is that they don’t have any kind of organization inside them. Well, this little organizer solves that problem. It fits into a standard mini backpack and has loads of compartments to keep your stuff where you want it. Even better? If you switch Loungefly bags, you can just pull the organizer out with all your stuff and put it in your new bag!
So, if you’re heading to Disney World, be smart and grab these items before you leave! For more Disney souvenirs and essentials, be sure to visit our Amazon Store.
Our handy (and portable!) ebook guides make sure you get the best deals and can plan a vacation of a lifetime.
