- AD: Elements of this trip were gifted by Ever After Holidays. Please see below for further details on our partnership. | Join Gary and I for the beginning of a magical new Walt Disney World Vlog series! In this vlog we fly with Virgin Atlantic in Premium Economy and check-in to Animal Kingdom Lodge!

COVID-19: Please note this vlog series was filmed prior to any travel restrictions or advisories coming into effect.
In this vlog, I drive from my home to London Gatwick airport. There I use the Gatwick Airport Valet Parking, which I got for a 10% discount through the Gatwick Airport app. Once safely parked, I meet up with my friend Gary C for check-in to Hampton by Hilton at London Gatwick North Terminal. There I surprise Gary by telling him we're staying at Animal Kingdom Lodge! We give you a full room tour of a standard twin room before grabbing dinner at Giraffe in the South Terminal. We head back to the room after we pick up some essentials from Marks and Spencer and a ride on the tram (with singing).
The next morning we check-in for our Virgin Atlantic Premium Economy flights. We utilise Gatwick Premium security (available for £5 per person if not included in your ticket) and check in to the No.1 Lounges Clubrooms. If you'd like to use my referral link to get a discount on a new No.1 Lounges booking, you may do so by clicking here: no1lounges.men...
Our flight to Orlando International (MCO) was delightful. We bumped into Elizabeth, our favourite Virgin Atlantic air stewardess and enjoyed some delicious food. Upon arriving in Orlando we tried out the Minnie Van Airport Shuttle service. This was booked over the phone +1 407-WDW-PLAY (+1 407-939-7529) and cost $155 for up to 4 people. We provide a full review on whether the experience was really worth the money and show what the experience was like.
Checking in to Animal Kingdom Lodge, we give you a full room tour of a newly refurbished Jambo House two queen bed, Savannah view room. As we requested a room close to the lobby and on a high floor, we didn't end up with the best view in my opinion so I maybe wouldn't recommend those requests. However, the room was incredible and far beyond what Gary and I have come to expect on our Disney trips (thanks Ever After Holidays for the magic).
We then daringly headed out to Animal Kingdom! There we enjoy a ride on Navi River Journey, a quick service meal at Satuli Canteen (where-by I explain how to use the Disney Dining Plan a bit more), we have a quick ride on Kilimanjaro Safaris (bad idea) before retreating to Animal Kingdom Lodge and The Mara quick service for a snack (Orange Cream Bar and Mickey Bar).

Oh I'm so glad that your trip wasn't affected by the Covid 19 pandemic. I hope you and Gary C. are doing well.
Myself and the wife love watching your vlogs. We went to Florida for our honeymoon and hope to go back soon. Keep up the good work. Paul & Rachel x
But it was filmed on March 10 and WDW shut on the 15th, so the last couple of days of this series won’t be normal? Saw the date on WDW Today on the tv.
Thank you for doing this! To see Gary's face when he found out that you were staying at AKL was priceless!
You are by far my favorite Disney vlogger. And inspired me to book my own disney trip. Next year, in the fall hopefully.
What an incredible trip. Thank you & Ever After Holidays for taking me. Animal Kingdom Lodge was amazing. Xxx
Met you two guys in Oct coming off Hagrids delighted you have new vlog series out as I am staying in AKL in sept 🤞
You and Adam are just hilarious together 😂
Thank you for bringing so much joy and magic to our family especially during these uncertain times. We truly are immersed in your vacation and look forward to your upcoming day's to come.
We have owned in Animal Kingdom Lodge's Villas since 2012, we LOVE it there, Savanna view every time!
Gary C 💯💯
"Ever After Holidays" chose the very best to represent them! Adam and Gary deserve this Pixe Dust! Thank you! Preparing now for Gary's tears getting on the Animal Kingdom, Magical Express.
Thank you Abigail, I really appreciate that :)
Abigail Broughton 😘❤️
Gary is a national treasure and needs to be protected at all costs 💜
Bless ya xx
"If someone snatches that I'm coming for your wig" LOL bless your soul Gary C that was awesome
Maureen Rivera Best quote of this vlog!!😂😂
🤣🤣🤣
😂😂
"Professional Plus One" I love it
I love watching you two because you’ve never been ungrateful for how much you’re able to go to Disney and you’re open and honest with your experiences, a lot of youtubers lose their gratitude for their job and I love that you’re aware
I love you Adam, but I must say these adventures w/ Gary vlogs are my favorite. Someone should give you two a tv show.
When traveling with two suitcases, until you have to check them, take those straps and attach them together. Wrap them around both suitcases so they move as one. Easier to roll. 😉
Even if this was 3 hours long it wouldn’t be long enough 😂 love this video!
Yesssss
I'm so glad that Gary C. got to stay at Animal Kingdom Lodge and this partnership sounds like a great opportunity for you Adam! Love your vlogs! Thank you for helping me virtually escape to Disney. Would love to go back someday but right now I don't have the coin for it.
Omg was not expecting this! I thought that there might not be some for a while. Gary C as well can it get better. Made my day can’t wait!!!
I'm so glad you have a big ole sponser for the next year. They've chosen the best person!
Charlottesreadsthings They’ve been really lovely :)
I love the surprises you do for Gary. To have a friendship like you two have is one of a kind. It took me 32 years to find a friend where we have that special friendship too. Btw the travel vlogs are my absolute fave. Thanks for bringing us along.
Gary with the shower . Sheer panic. Omg it was so funny.
every time gary takes the camera to thank adam i tear up😭 you guys are the sweetest!!
2 minutes in the Gatwick hotel and im crying with laughter. Love you two x
Disney CM here. Perfect timing for spreading some magic to all of us too! I always watch your vlogs, but this series is extra special 💖
Gary: “Girls put a show on for the people at home” 😂😂😂😂
“And this is our view....” road way. Too funny Gary C.
Loved this so much guys! What a lovely surprise for Gary and can't wait to see the rest of this trip
Dude’s you guys are so funny, when the jingle Plays on the TV my wife comes bounding in laughing and excited.
Keep up the good work 👍
"Don't worry, we are the darkness dwellers ."
I love it! 😂💙
Rewatching this series because why not?! Love a Gary and Adam series!
Couldn’t agree MORE,
Love your vlogs, especially when Gary is along for the trip! So excited to see this today - and the company you're partnering with sounds great. Congratulations and thank you x
Adam and Gary! I cannot express how happy I am to have the series debuting today as this one gonna literally save me from becoming totally bored in the next weeks. Was supposed to go to WDW on March 14th. 30 mins before the planned boarded from Dublin the travel ban was extended. We decided to postpone anyway as Disney announced 2 days prior to that, that they will close the parks. Lets just hope that November will happen...
Christian Eisbrenner crossing my fingers for you!! I hope you get your trip this year!
@@jerpica.d6735 Than you so much. Believe me that we are also crossing literally everything we can. I want to see Star Wars with my own eyes!
Christian Eisbrenner my fiance and I were planning our vacation for September but everything is on hold now! Hoping early next year for us. The magic will come back!!
@@jerpica.d6735 Early September MIGHT work out? Where are coming from? Inside the US or outside?
Was FOP just so busy that you did not get a ride?
Who knew Cher had a love child named Adam. I thought Gary was the only singer in the duo. Both you should sing together. Love travel day.
The way Adam and Gary dance when they turn on the tv embodies how I feel while watching their vlogs 🥰
Travel days are my absolute fave!
I never get enough of that excitement just before a holiday!! Love this so much! 😁
This was just what I needed. I have watched it several times now and still makes me laugh. The room tour was great. I love the two of you. You both seem so very relaxed from the beginning and having wonderful time. Looking forward to the next one!. Stay safe!
My family of four used the same dinning plan and loved it. For us the deluxe dinning plan is way to much for how much you will eat in a day. Put in consideration on your eating habits and especially if you have kids, the nice thing is that you can used the plan not only in Disney parks but Disney springs as well. We used it at the Rainforest Cafe as a sit down credit and basically ordered anything we wanted off the menu regardless of the cost. We also ate at Cinderella's Castle but it cost Two credits as some popular high in demand restaurants do charge two credits . Regardless it made us stress free when it came to lunch, dinner, breakfast and along the way snacks. The Standard dinning plan was just right.
Ahhhhhhhhhh!!!! How exciting!!!!!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ LOVE your vlogs with Gary at Disney!!!!! Yea!!!
Will be contacting forever after holidays when/if Disney open the free dining plan for 2021 uk guests!!! Definitely picked the right 2 to promote the company!! Let's hope they send you to different resorts more and more often, once this terrible virus gets under control
It’s so strange to watch this knowing it wasn’t long before lockdown, how close everyone is and touching things in the Minnie van. It’s a whole new world!
I honestly don't know how many times I have seen this now and Gary saying "that offends me" just cracks me up every time.
Packing cubes are great if they are compression packing cubes otherwise it will take up too much space. That’s the lesson we learned. Love watching you and Gary having fun and enjoying each other’s company.
Whenever they say moomoosheroo I just experience pure joy! Love you both ❤️
Im so glad we still get Adam and Gary during these times 🧡
The moment Gary said “you just went oh when your knee buckled looking under the thing.” I felt that level of old. Omg I am cracking up
Just been watching the October 2017 trip for the first time, and love how Gary has come out of his shell and let his brilliant personality shine through as all these vlogs series have come out, greatly aided by Adam what a friend to have in life.
I've loved using the dining plan the times that I've gone. Since it's all paid in advance it was nice to not have to worry about budgeting for food while actually in the parks. We pretty much always used the quick service credit to get a big breakfast in the morning at the resort, then used the snack credits throughout the day before using a table service credit at our dinner.
Love seeing new Disney vlogs!
“if someone snatches that, i’m coming for your wig” had my cracking upppp😂😂
Having a bit of a garbage pandemic day but will rewatch this series for the 40000th time because it cheers me up. Thank you :)
Thank you Adam , Gary and most of all Ever After Holiday... the fellas deserve this and so do we :)
Gary needs one of the Mickey ice cream fridge magnets for his photo props lol
So happy to see you both together on another Disney Vlog that you completed before the shutdown and quarantine. I honestly can say you guys are amazing together and think your vlog series is the BEST out there for Disney! Cheers to you both!
"I can't turn it off, I can't turn it off!!!" You guys are so funny 😂 love you both💖 so glad you're back👍👍👍
Adam, you had me cracking up "pay for the WIFI, it's worth it, it's spotty sometimes but we mostly use it for work and Instagram stalking". We're so glad to know we aren't the only people that participate in a little instastalking now and again. This vlog was so delightful. Animal Kingdom Lodge is one of my bucket list resorts to stay at, I just wish it wasn't so far from the other parks/attractions.
I love that voice Gary does when it's an early flight "That offends me"
This is amazing I actually thought there wouldn’t be a Disney blog in a while so yay! And please say safe everyone
Top trip for when you use packing cubes, roll all your clothes. I can fit two weeks worth of clothing into a carry on suitcase using cubes. Its super easy if you use them properly :)
I don’t know what it is about them, but the travel days are my favourite videos of yours!
1:09:22
Adam: "...have a little..."
Me & Gary at the same time: "MOO MOO SHAROO!!!"
Ive been watching too many of your videos today haha 😂
awwww love Gary's face when he find out he is staying at Animal Kingdom Lodge x thanks for sharing xx we enjoyed watching- stay well x
I'm a big fan of your channel. You guys helped me plan for my next trip to Disney World. I love how much Gary is into pins. You are such an outgoing person keep being you. Adam you are such a wonderful planner for these Disney World trips and such a fun person to watch. Keep being amazing!!!!!!!
Ever After Holiday please give us another holiday with Adam & Gary when it’s safe! They’re the perfect duo 😊
This really made my week, I didn’t realise how much I needed abit of the iconic duos cheerful personalities to make this situation we are in better.
Gary's wonder and appreciation of airplanes is warming my heart!🤗
Thanks. so much. You make me laugh and it is an escape.
I love seeing you two traveling together. This needs to happen more!!!💜
I am SO happy you're back - as mentioned earlier, I didn't realize exactly how much I missed your weekly vlogs until you took a bit of time off. Thanks for helping to keep spirits up during this crazy time and always!
anyone else watching this for the 5th time during lockdown?
Absolutely love your flogs, you guys work so well together. Good that Adam always takes his own entertainment with him in the form of Gary C who is one of the most funniest and genuine guys ever.
Can't get enough Adam and Gary! If you ever want to move to Utah, I want you as neighbors! Adam, I love your singing voice. Please sing in front of people more often. I'm a trained singer, if that makes my opinion hold any more weight in your eyes. Loved Gary mouthing the words, that was hilarious. Looking forward to watching the rest of this series. :)
Animal Kingdom lodge, stayed there for 14 days a few years ago, it was great, loved it
Hey! Nice _stealth_ boast. 🤠
Can’t believe I’ve only just discovered your channel! You guys are hilarious can’t wait for the rest of the series!
You have a lot of vlogs of trips catching up to do 😉
I really want Gary’s “You don’t want me as Mr. Bond, everyone would be dead” and Gary doing the Bond pose on a T-Shirt😂
You don't realize how much I needed to see you and Gary C right now. I lost my grandfather very recently due to the coronavirus and I kept rewatching your and Gary C's disney vlogs late at night to make me happier. This is SUCH a nice and GRATEFUL surprise, thank you guys so so much! Stay safe!
I ❤️ packing cubes... Great for organizing and saving time unpacking and repacking👍
Gary is never going to trust you about where you are staying now
Packing cubes: Yay! Especially if you’re changing hotels and you can’t unpack. Everything keeps organized
Got some for my last trip and I liked them.
Love your vlogs!!! So nice to watch you and Gary C. You two are sunshine on a cloudy, rainy day. I always stay at Yacht Club Resort. I booked my niece and her BFF in animal kingdom lodge a couple of years ago while I was at Yacht Club Resort. The girls loved this resort. The breakfast buffet was excellent. Glad to see you and Gary had a great time. It's always an enjoyment to watch you two. Stay Safe an Happy Travels!!!!
I could cry with joy and I haven’t even started watching yet!! love to you both 💗
Hey Adam and Gary!
Ever After, you are incredibly intelligent picking these two up. Adam and Gary together is wonderful fun. If I could go to WDW with anyone, it would be these two fellas, aside from my wife. Adam, lyft will get you from the airport to a Disney hotel for around $30 ish. I love the idea of a Minnie van, but I dislike the price. Happy day! Thank you Adam and Gary and now Ever After.
Ahh another great vlog..Love u guys! Animal kingdom is my favorite park. Can't wait to go back again..
I can’t believe I have only just found your channel ! You are the funniest guys I laughed out loud so many times. I can’t wait for the rest of the vlogs
Fun fact: do you know what day is it today? It's Disneyland Paris 28 th anniversary! Happy birthday Disneyland Paris !
marion lh Happy birthday DLP! X
This vlog series is exactly what the world needed right now. 😊
That is a nice surprise for Gary. I love you too together on trips.
omg I love you two's chemistry . I love yall
What an Easter present! Happy Easter everyone 🌈💛 Thank you Adam and Gary for this precious video. We all need some cheering up at this very sad time. Thank you, Happy Easter 🐰🐣 Xoxo
Love that i get to virtually escape being house bound and follow along with your travels. This vlog series makes my heart happy 👍👍👍👍
Hello Adam!!! My kids and I LOVE your videos.. They have been getting us through these different times..Love you guys..Stay safe!!!
You two are literal sunshine in human form 🌞🌞 love you both xx
I wish my husband loved Disney like you too ! He never comes with me 😞
Bless you Aimee, I'm a grown man, about six foot tall that weights about 225 pounds of muscle! And I admitted I will never get tired of going to all this parks! Which now they're closed for God knows how long due to this virus! And I live about a hours drive from Magic Kingdom, Epcot Center and all of their hotels, which I've stayed in the past! And proud to say a few years back I've stayed close to a month out there and got annual passes to all the parks and had the time of my life. There's so much to do out there, that you'll never get tired, between the parks, eating out, shopping at Disney Springs and City Walk, movies, everyday flea markets, outlet stores, museums, ESPN complex , there's also a lot of lakes out there, Old Town, right next to it games and rides for the whole family and much more! I could spend two months out there doing different things everyday! I hope God willing there's a cure for this virus and we can get back to normal! Enjoy.
Wasn’t expecting another vlog so soon. We’re booked in at Animal Kingdom later this year, keeping our fingers crossed the trip can go ahead. Really looking forward to watching this vlog as both you and Gary are always informative and hilarious at the same time. Got a few tips from your last few vlogs and can’t wait to watch this series of videos. Thank you both - brilliant work again.
I’ve rewatched these vlogs the most miss u guys cant wait till ur back

Animal Kingdom Lodge is so beautiful. The moment you enter the lodge, you’re transported to the heart of Africa
We love watching Adam and Gary's Disney adventures. My kids always ask if there is a new one. And my 2 year old will start saying "Mooorrrrnnninnnggg". It makes us so excited for our trip in September. Godwilling we can still go!
Was patiently waiting on the next episode then I realised it was only Saturday, what am I like
Orville & Wilbur Wright are the brothers that invented and flew the world's first motor plane :)
