Disney Park / Activity Theme Park Must See
Hosting nearly 20 million guests each year, Magic Kingdom Park ranks among the most-visited theme parks in the world. Part of the world's biggest amusement park, which covers a vast area twice as large as Manhattan, this theme park is dedicated to fairy tales and Disney characters. The park's centerpiece is a replica of a fairy-tale castle from the 1950s' film "Cinderella." Six magical lands surround the castle, featuring boat and roller coaster rides, games, jungle cruises, train adventures, shooting arcades, and stage shows. Explore the themed lands of this wheel-shaped venue using Cinderella's castle as your hub. A narrow-gauge railroad runs along the park's perimeter and provides an excellent overview of the park before you start exploring.

    A magical place! The atmosphere is incredible, music, attractions, the staff is friendly and all are willing to help, always smiling. An unforgettable experience for the whole family. It is ideal to go when one is great but with the soul of a child haha since children tend to become tired and some not endure so long rows. Experiences with characters are fun for young and old, with 24 years I spent it fabulous with all the characters, all manage to get smiles and adhere very well to their respective personalities. ! Even Mickey speaks Spanish! The show Happily N'Ever after is simply wonderful, all my childhood movies appeared in front me with unforgettable phrases, even manages to get a few tears, so that for anything in the world miss that show. Go with lots of energy and try to arrive early (hopefully get a reservation at a restaurant for breakfast with time before the opening of the Park to enter before the others and make good use of the day) during the first hours there is so many people as a means day. There are so many things to do and see that it is impossible to do them all in one day. I bought Memory Maker in advance and I do not regret, Disney photographers take you precious photos and are located in emblematic places and where are all the characters. I brought me precious memories and it was worth every dollar spent. The only downside: the rows. Some are very long, especially for Space Mountain and Seven Dwarfs mine train (I had to wait an hour and a half for the latter), so make good use of the fastpass and remove them as soon as possible, since for some attractions are quickly exhausted. Take into account the time before entering the Park if you are staying in a hotel outside Disney, parking is not opposite the Park and it is huge, there is to take a train or a ship which at times may be delayed. For all this way I recommend to take into account at least 40 minutes, I mean it. In conclusion would go a thousand times more.

    A few friends and I arrived at the park at 9:30am and were super excited to explore the park as it has always been our childhood dream to visit Disney World. We were a shocked at the prices of the tic...  more »

    Facing the Park public playground, adults can find the attractions well boring, but it's great to take beautiful photos, sightseeing, rest, eat hot things in the Park and wait for the fireworks. If you do not call the shows in the morning, I recommend arriving later, there aren't many attractions that take all day and the Fireworks it's late, but worth the wait.

    A great place to build memories and have fun at all ages. We have been over 50 times and The Magic Kingdom never disappoints. That being said, you must do your homework before you go. This is not a place to go "wing it" when you get there. Trust me, set your fast passes, download the app for the parks, and expect crowds. Remember, it's FL and it is hot most months, but again, this is remedied by using inside A/C breaks (indoor rides, meet and greets, shows) to cool you off.

    We had a great time here! Beautiful place! Park is very clean and we'll kept. Staff were all friendly and helpful. 4 stars is due to the price of everything. Such a huge billion probably trillion dollar company, still charging $20 to park 2 miles away from the attraction is a little crazy. Overall well worth it. We plan on returning!

    Do your homework before you go to Magic Kingdom or any of the four parks. I encourage out of state people to get the dinning plan and also book your fast passes ahead of time. Pick a slower time of year to come to the parks, major Holidays are not a great choice. Most of the major holidays are celebrated a month long or longer. It can be a Magical time, but you have to do some planning as well. They have some great packages and if you stay at Disney hotels, the parks have selected extra magic hours and make sure you check out the dinning plan, it pays for itself. Talk to someone who has had a positive experience and they can help guide you through the memories of a lifetime.

    The Disney cast go out of their way to make your day enjoyable. This is a good thing, because Florida is hot and humid. Disney World is popular so expect lots of long lines. Also Disney is expensive. You are allowed to bring in water. I would highly recommend it. Suntan lotion is also a good idea. Have fun at the happiest place on earth, but be smart. Finally remember your photo pass. 😀

Where to stay in Orlando

Orlando is famous for its high concentration of budget, mid-range, and luxury hotels. The city caters to every tourist's needs, with accommodations ranging from inexpensive hostels and motels to five-star resorts and lavish private villas. Orlando is a busy city all year long, so plan ahead and book your stay well in advance. To avoid the crowds of the big theme parks, consider renting a vacation house or condo just outside the city, or explore one of the area's campgrounds or RV resorts.
