For those heading to the parks for Valentines Day, we wanted to share with you some suggestions on ways to make your visit extra romantic. But please bear in mind that Disney is filled with a ton of romantic touches that can be experienced year round! So if you’ll be hitting the parks this year with that special someone you may want to take note of 7 ways that we like to add a bit of romance to our Disney days.

Both properties offer 20-minute rides that will set visitors back $55 (per booking) making it a wonderful touch that doesn’t break the bank. Advanced booking is recommended and can be done by contacting 407.WDW.PLAY.
2. Watch the Fireworks from California Grill. For a romantic dinner with an incredible view try and book a table at California Grill that coincides with Magic Kingdom’s nightly fireworks display. This rooftop restaurant at Disney’s Contemporary Resort has a private viewing deck where visitors can sip on a glass of bubbly while watching Happily Ever After light up the night sky. As it is one of Walt Disney World’s Fine/Signature Dining Restaurants, you can also count on top-notch cuisine with an emphasis on seasonal ingredients. You’ll find everything from Colorado Bison Loin and Swordfish, to an amazing sushi bar and massive wine menu.
