A beautiful setting along a sweet lake makes the Boardwalk a relaxing break from Disney hustle. It is a great place to run and also to see the Epcot fireworks.

It was alot of walking too much for me. The food is expensive but very good. The Boardwalk accomodations were excellent. The staff whereever we went in the parks or hotels wrer the very best. Theres too much to see and you come back needing a vacation from your vacation. It was very enjoyable but not a place that I... More

Disney's Boardwalk is nice for a little stroll, lovely view over the water but ultimately nothing to write home about. There are some nice little shops, a few places to eat but I would only recommend a short visit if you're near by. Downtown Disney has a lot more to offer, a lot more going on and unless you've got...

This was probably my least favorite destination during my week trip. If you just want to go for a quiet stroll, this is perfect. But in terms of content I was not impressed. Unless you have an extra half day to waste I wouldn't bother... Hit Downtown Disney instead.

It is very pleasant to even stroll and watch, and eat, and stroll again... but make sure you do it on cooler months - summer is too hot to be walking outside!

This is the only Disney place that doesn't cost a fortune! It is a great place to take an evening stroll and have something to eat with young children. I like it.

So much stuff to do and so many good places to eat! You could walk around the boardwalk for days and not get bored (no pun intended). There are so many cool little shops and cafes; you definitely need to stop by
