Okay, friends, let’s be real. I love Disney. I mean, really love Disney. So, when the idea of hitting all three Asian parks popped into my head – Tokyo, Shanghai, and Hong Kong – I was all in. I thought, “I’m a savvy traveler, I got this!” Cue the record scratch.
Let me just say, planning this trip was like trying to solve a Rubik’s cube blindfolded, while juggling flaming chainsaws. It was rough.

My Planning Fails (So You Don’t Make Them):
● The “DIY Itinerary” Disaster: I tried to build my perfect itinerary, thinking I could find all the best deals and hidden gems. Instead, I found a tangled mess of conflicting hotel reviews, confusing train schedules, and ticket options that seemed designed to make my brain melt.
● Lost in Translation (Literally): Trying to book things in Japanese and Mandarin? Yeah, even with Google Translate, it was a comedy of errors. I’m pretty sure I accidentally booked a karaoke room instead of a hotel once.
● The “Information Black Hole”: The internet is a blessing and a curse. I spent hours wading through blogs and forums, only to find everyone had different opinions. Who do you trust? It’s impossible to know!
● My Life Became a Spreadsheet: Seriously, my life was nothing but spreadsheets and tabs. It was exhausting, and honestly, it sucked all the joy out of the anticipation.
Then, My Friend Was Like, “Just Call Orlando Insider…” And thank goodness I did. I was skeptical, I’ll admit. I thought, “Can a travel agency really make this easier?” The answer is a resounding YES.
Why I’m Now a Huge Orlando Insider Fan:
● They Basically Did All the Work: They took my jumbled mess of a plan and turned it into a smooth, stress-free adventure. Flights? Booked. Hotels? Perfect. Park tickets? Sorted. They handled everything.
● They Knew Their Stuff: These people know Disney Asia like the back of their hand. They gave me tips and tricks I never would have found on my own.
● They Were Actually Nice: Seriously, they were friendly, responsive, and genuinely cared about making my trip amazing.
● I Got My Life Back: Instead of stressing about logistics, I could actually get excited about my trip!
My Advice? Listen to Me:
If you’re even thinking about a Disney Asia trip, just skip the DIY stress and call Orlando Insider. You’ll thank me later. Trust me, you’ll have way more fun when someone else is handling the hard stuff.
