Magic Holidays' recommendations for enjoying T-Rex
From Magic Holidays we always share some tips with our travelers to make the most of the experience at T-Rex Cafe inside Disney Springs.
If you visit the restaurant with children, one of the most spectacular areas is the Ice Cave, inspired by the ice age. The blue lights, the glaciers and the atmosphere of the place make it seem like you are really inside a frozen world, something that kids tend to be fascinated by. However, there is one important detail to keep in mind: the temperature in this area is quite low, so we recommend wearing a coat or overalls, even if it's warm outside.
On the other hand, if you visit T-Rex as a couple or with friends, an excellent option is to ask for a table close to the Reef, This is an area with an incredible underwater ambiance, full of luminous jellyfish and colors that generate a much calmer and relaxed atmosphere. It is one of the most beautiful places in the restaurant to enjoy the experience calmly.
These little details can make all the difference and make a visit to T-Rex at Disney Springs become one of the most fun memories of your trip to Orlando.
