Disney World Map & Theme Park Information
When you look at the Disney World Map, you can see where the theme parks are in relation to each other along with the Skyliner and Monorail system.
It is pretty spread out, but all contained within the Disney bubble.
If you have never been to Disney World, I can tell you that you can easily spend a week in the Disney bubble and not see everything there is to see.
The main thing you will want to do is make sure that you hit all four of the major theme parks as each one is completely different and offers unique experiences.
