100%! You couldn't pay me enough to be a WDW tour guide! My group limit is 4, my complaining/whining limit is 0.

I can't even reliably keep my family of 4 together all the time at Disney. It's virtually impossible to keep a larger group together unless everyone is wearing the same shirt and you're carrying a flag.

You all have expectations. Learn to go with a COMMANDO type touring plan with no expectations. You have already seen it all. I am not a fan of solo. We have 7 people on our next trip.
19 days.

I, for one, have immensely enjoyed a solo WDW trip and I'm greatly looking forward to another in a month, completely free from any hint of "loneliness". It's liberating not to have to take care of anyone else while traveling.

Amen. My solo trip was so peaceful. I am very much looking forward to our family trip, but we do not get up early or try to pack stuff in.

DH & I loved being just us- on a few sessions on recent trip & in 2024. Easy enough touring with our 2 high teens boys last family trip but more chilled w just us.

Dfil with us was like a 4yo but needing coffee stops rather than snacks- even when walking out of EP heading to topolinos bfast he wanted a Starbucks- no! Needs restrooms just as much & complains about lines as much too.

That's like complaining about clouds in the sky

Luckily there weren't too many of those. Though it was too hot :-)

I can't really do disney outside my immediate family. I had the family who was exhausted from morning til night and complained about how tired they were. I suggested separating "noooo I don't know what I'm doing!" 5 minutes later "is there a lot more?"

They only did the one day out of the 3 they paid for. Then went home saying disney was a rip off and they'd never go back.

We did a "once in a lifetime" family trip in 2018 with 13 of us. 9 loved it so much, we've been back a ton, bought DVC, etc. 4 were exhausted, sore feet, don't plan to ever go back.
Those 4 also happen to be the ones who didn't do any preparing.

Disney is not for everyone.
I too, struggle with the "oh, whatever you think..." who end up unhappy because they had an unspoken expectation. I plan, and try to be clear with that plan and expectations. If you want something different, please speak up!

I'm also getting better at not OVER-planning... because even I can miss out on joy & beauty by trying to squeeze out every last drop.

Not just Disney - I only want to travel with my immediate family. Vacations with extended family or friends sounds like a nightmare.
