Baby Jogger - city mini® GT2 double stroller

Baby Jogger City Mini GT/GT2 double. A double BOB is a little too big and you don’t need the off-road capability at Disney. The City Mini GT double is a great Disney option. Either rent or start looking for a used one locally on Marketplace to use and then re-sell when you are done with it. 

We went in December for 3 days with our almost 4 year old and 9 month old and took our Baby Jogger City Mini GT2 Double, it’s pretty big and didn’t have any issues! My 3 year old walked a lot, which was fine, but it was really nice when she wanted to ride. We only had to keep track of one stroller and it had a ton of storage! We’re going to Disney World in May and we’ll take it again!

We did a Chico stroller and car seat combo for our first. Taking the car seat out of the car and dropping it right into the stroller was great. We took that thing everywhere, even thru airports, on planes, Disney, etc. used it for our 3 other kids as well and now it’s sitting in my garage shelf 9 years later. When we had #2 the UBs had come out and we went to test drive them..the 1x1 configuration made it so hard to turn we ended up getting a citi-mini double. Also have taken that to Disney, and Europe, and still have it. We did end up getting a UB Umbrella for when we didn’t need the double and for easier portability. Still got that one too! Yeah the UB is the BMW of strollers, but you might end up wanting / needing another stroller depending on your needs anyway, so save some coin and use it for diapers!

Highly recommend renting a double city mini. We've done it multiple times in the past. Folds up easily and not a big footprint. Plenty of storage room under and they always provide a rain cover. Not sure why you aren't, but a stroller nap is bound to happen at those ages. Let them nap and enjoy the parks. One of our fondest memories is when our four year old fell asleep and our 18 month old chilled in the stroller while we got to enjoy the festival eats in epcot! Either way, have a great time!

This is my time to shine! lol I have been stroller crazed since I was pregnant. I thought about our constraints first (budget, space) just to narrow it down a bunch. Just because of space constraints we eliminated full size strollers. (Like vista/mockingbird) I chose to completely ignore if a stroller could turn into a double or not. It’s a whole other ball game and I’m choosing to cross that bridge if we come to it. I recommend that because depending on age differences between siblings it can really change your priorities with double strollers. I think it’s impossible to have just 1 stroller fit all your needs, especially if you want to use them from infant/newborn stage. The needs are just so different for tiny babies vs toddlers. So instead of compromising on toddler needs(which would last for so many more years), we got a corso primo for newborn days and a gt2 that we didn’t use until she was 5 months. She’s one now and our needs sound similar to yours (80% neighborhood walks, 20% terrain) I just got a minu v2 as well. The first 5 months she really wanted to face me, and was often in the car seat. I loved the chicco corso primo (primo has better wheels then regular corso!), it was super duper easy with the chicco key fit and the seat was also great facing me. We could have found adapters for the gt2 and used that with the car seat too, but I liked that the corso is just a frame that the car seat clicked into. It felt much more manageable in early days when I was trying to get her around on my own. That was worth it and I would do it again! I would typically baby wear her around the neighborhood, so the frame lived in the trunk of the car for a little bit and it was great for shopping and appointments. Definitely not all terrain, but it handled rough sidewalks admirably! And 100 bucks used so I didn’t feel guilty about only using it for 5 months. I just switched to a minu v2 because the gt2 is just a tiny bit too bulky to easily maneuver in and out of our house with an injured back. I’m planning on keeping both, and the minu will be great for shorter walks, travel, car, shopping, museums, etc but it’s just not quite all terrain like the gt2. Like I *can* take it on gravel, we’ll survive, but the gt2 is smooth as butter. The gt2 also has a much higher weight limit so she can use it when she grows out of the minu. I think the gt2 and the minu are an incredible pair of strollers that cover alllll of my needs. If I had to choose one it would be the minu, because having something I can manage with one hand in and out of the house is priceless. But those are just our constraints- the gt2 is a serious workhorse! I just have a tiny porch and narrow steps 😭 I highly *highly* recommend getting the stroller guide from “the stroller workshop”. He has a YouTube channel and patreon. The guide is $5 and it helped me pull the trigger on a minu. I tuned out all other reviews, I trust that man with my life 🤓 TLDR if you need 1 stroller for all purposes from birth on- I would get a gt/2 and car seat adapters. But if you are thrifty and have the time, getting something for early days, then reselling it and getting a rugged daily driver and a lightweight travel stroller would require fewer compromises. Also, I didn’t pay full price for a single one of these strollers. I’m a Facebook marketplace sniper lol.
