How to: Surprising Adults?

[DerangedChipmunk]

Hi Disfriends,

I’m an AP, and I’m surprising a friend in their mid 20s with a day at Disney (his first!)

He thinks we’re just going resort hopping, and has no idea.

How would YOU tell him to make it the MOST magical?

I’d treat him like a kid! Have a shirt made for him to wear (like “I’m done adulting. I’m going to Disney World!” or something similar). Buy him ears with his name on them. Give him made up “coupons” for things like “A ride on Space Mountain,” etc. Have a blast!

I don’t know that I would. I would just have the ticket handy and just happen to end up at a park and let the surprise reveal itself.

On the way there, talk about how great the attractions are(especially rides if he likes rides or shows if he likes show etc.).

Tough one, you're already there on property. Not sure how much you can surprise someone with "Hey lets go in to the parks." other than that person being very grateful for dropping $100 on them.

Wrap a first visit button and set of mouse ears and give to him before you head to park.

I was going to say this too. Give him the “My First Visit” button. It’s free and says it all!

Exactly.

Thats what I would do. If you are resort hopping, go to a monorail one last and end up at MK. Or go to the TCC and get off at MK.. just lead him, don't say a thing
