Kingdom Konsultant Travel Blog

Vienna, Austria is a city rich with history and culture.  With so much going on, it can be hard to pick what to do and prioritize on your visit there.  There are palaces, museums, day trips and of course lots of local food and culture to experience. We've compiled this list of some of our highlights to help get you started planning your journey to this amazing place. Walking Tour With many courtyards and cobbled streets in the oldest parts of the city, a walking tour will be the best way to get your bearings and see some highlights of the Hapsburg Empire.  Most walking tours will take about two hours, and your Kingdom Konsultant Agent can help you find the best one for your needs.  There are beautiful sculptures throughout the old parts of the city, so you don't even need to go into museums to start to see beautiful art.  I personally love to start my visit to a new city with a walking tour, it helps me get the lay of the land and see a few highlights before diving deeper into

Disney's Animal Kingdom park was the last of the four Florida parks to open in 1998 and offers, by far, the most unique park experience.  Although it may not have as many attractions as the other parks, Animal Kingdom's 500 acres are jam packed with exquisite details and theming!  The park is currently home to 7 lands: The Oasis, Discovery Island, Africa, Asia, DinoLand, U.S.A., Rafiki's Planet Watch and Pandora - The World of Avatar. While visiting Animal Kingdom, you can encounter exotic animals from all over the world and learn a little something while you do!  The park is dedicated to conservation and is committed to animal care, education and research.  There are plenty of things to see and do while visiting the Animal Kingdom but here are my top ten Must Do's that aren't to be missed! 10. DINOSAUR Head over to DinoLand U.S.A. for a prehistoric journey through the Cretaceous period on DINOSAUR.  I really enjoy this attraction, especially the humorous pre-sho

Originally Disney MGM Studios, Disney's Hollywood Studios was the third of the Florida parks to open in 1989 and is inspired by Hollywood's Golden Age.  The park spans 135 acres and is home to 8 areas: Hollywood Boulevard, Sunset Boulevard, Animation Courtyard, Commissary Lane, Grand Avenue, Echo Lake, and the two newest areas, Toy Story Land, Star Wars : Galaxy's Edge. Disney's Hollywood Studios has so many amazing attractions and entertainment that this Top 10 Must Do list was incredibly difficult to narrow down!  After much internal debate, here are my top 10 Must Do's at Disney's Hollywood Studios. (Plus an Honorable Mention because I just couldn't narrow the list down!) Honorable Mention: Dine in the 1950s We know Disney does a great job at theming and two great examples of that are the Sci-Fi Dine-In Theater and the 50's Prime Time Café.  The Sci-Fi Dine-In Theater restaurant transports you to a drive in movie theater complete with sci-fi cl

If you are vegan, vegetarian, or have food allergies, you won't feel left out at Disney! There are plenty of delicious vegan snacks in the Magic Kingdom. Remember, calories don't count at Disney - so eat up!  1. Dole Whip - Order the pineapple or orange Dole Whip, without the vanilla swirl. Other options are the Citrus Swirl, Citrus Swirl Float, Orange Dole Whip, Orange Dole Whip Float.  Location: Aloha Isle and Sunshine Tree Terrace, Adventureland 2. Raspberry Sorbet - Along with this refreshing treat, there's Tofutti and Rice Dream vegan chocolate and vanilla ice cream. If these are too boring for you, add some peanut butter sauce! Location: Plaza Ice Cream Parlor*, Main Street U.S.A. 3. Plantain Chips with Black Bean Salsa -   A great snack option, but if you're really hungry get the rice and veggie bowl or southwestern salad. Location: Pecos Bill Tall Tale Inn and Cafe, Frontierland 4. French Fries - Craving something salty? Fries are a classic crowd pleaser! Loc

When you travel to Walt Disney World, you’ll want to commemorate your family’s vacation by taking home a little piece of the magic. By planning ahead and thinking outside the stuffed-animal-and-a-t-shirt box, you can come away with practical, unique souvenirs that remind you of your magical trip for years to come. Here are five ideas for your next trip: 1. Autographed Pillowcase Instead of buying an autograph book at the parks, plan ahead by bringing a white cotton pillowcase and Sharpie “Stained” fabric marker for characters to sign during your trip. When you return home, you can frame the pillowcase or actually use it on your pillow! This souvenir will cost about $5 depending on the type of pillowcase you purchase. (Tip: Wash, dry and iron the pillowcase before you travel, and bring a small piece of cardboard or hard-back book to place under the pillowcase when characters are signing.)  You can also do something similar with a photo mat and then frame with a photo of yo

If you've ever brought up a Disney Cruise to those who aren't in the know, I bet you've heard the all too familiar phrase "Aren't there kids everywhere?!" So today I wanted to share with you my top five reasons why I love Disney Cruising WITHOUT kids!  I've personally taken three Disney Cruises and have my fourth one coming up, but none of these trips include kiddos.  People look at me like I'm a bit nuts when I tell them this, since they equate the cruise line with fun loving children everywhere.  (Don't get me wrong, DCL is absolutely fantastic for kids too!) But they truly have something for everyone.  All the photos in this post are from my recent cruise on the Disney Magic (Mediterranean itinerary) but you should be able to find something similar on any of the ships in Disney's fleet! 5. See a Show Disney Cruise Line has some of the best entertainment in the industry with their Broadway-caliber performances and fantastic on-board ent
