Frequently Asked Questions

What is Mouse Pride?

Mouse Pride, LLC is a travel company specializing in Disney Vacations.  We focus on LGBT+ families like our own, but we book trips for all families.  We are Authorized Disney Travel Planners (Disney's term for travel agents who have completed their special training).  We book vacations and help with planning.

Why should I book my Disney Vacation with Mouse Pride?

A vacation to Disney World requires more knowledge and planning than you expect.  We'll help educate you and guide you through the hoops. 

In addition, after you've completed the vacation you booked with us, we may be able to mail you a rebate.

Will booking my Disney vacation with Mouse Pride cost more?

You will never pay more than you would booking directly with Disney.  In fact, if you go on the Disney website and price your trip, you're seeing the same pricing as all Authorized Disney Planners do.  Make sure you select and compare the various promotions.   So, we can't beat the price for a direct booking with Disney either - no Authorized Disney Planner can.  However, after you complete the trip you booked with us, we may be able to give you a rebate.

What if I already booked my vacation directly with Disney?

You have 30 days to transfer your reservation to us. All you have to do is fill this form or send us an email requesting to tranfer a reservation at  hello@mousepride.com.  We'll get the form to you, which requires your signature.  a

Is a trip to Walt Disney World in my budget?

Walt Disney World has 4 categories of resorts to meet various budgets.  The four categories are: Value Resorts, Moderate Resorts, Deluxe Resorts and Deluxe Villas.  Pricing in ascending order.  In addition to one campground at Disney's Fort Wilderness Resort.

Our favorite Value resorts are Pop Century and All-Star Movies.  Prices range from approximately $150-230 per night at these resorts.  In fact, we've stayed at Pop Century more than any other Disney property.  

If this still isn't in your budget, we can look into options for staying off property with expedia.

Why stay on property at Walt Disney World? Isn't it cheaper to stay off property?

Yes, there are many less expensive option off property near Walt Disney World.  However, we choose to stay on property for a few reasons.  

First, we like to be immersed in the Disney experience.  What we refer to as being inside the Disney bubble.  

Second, you have access to Disney transportation; buses, monarails, skyliner.  Disney transporation is far more convenient and reliable than what you can expect offsite..  If you bring or rent a car, you can park free at the hotels.  If you choose to drive to the parks, your parking is free.  

Third, you get into the parks earlier and, if staying at a deluxe resort, can stay at the  parks later.  

Fourth, you have early access for booking reservations for rides, dining and enchanting extras (droid build, princess makeovers, etc.).  Some of these are quite challenging to get.  

What if I don't like theme parks?

Disney Vacations encompass far more than theme parks.

 If you have the heart of an explorer, Disney Vacations include Nat Geo Expeditions.  You can book a trip to a location you might never dreamed possible with the confidence and security of Disney and National Geographic.  See the Galápagos Islands, Antartica, Patagonia and many more.

What is the rebate or cash back you've referred to?

Why don't you book flights?

We don't book flights for 2 reasons.   First, we are not offered commission for flights and can not generate revenue to run our business.  Second, you are better off booking directly with the airline in case of changes or issues with the flight.  

Can you book the Disney Parks outside of the US?

The only Disney Resort outside of the US I can book is Disneyland Paris.
