Practical tips from Magic Holidays ✨.

  • Magic Kingdom
    Avoid Saturday and Sunday if you can. Tuesday is usually the best day, with lower crowds.

  • EPCOT
    Thanks to its size, it never feels too full. Monday, Wednesday and Sunday are especially comfortable days.

  • Hollywood Studios
    For its star attractions such as Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge y Toy Story Landis the park that fills up the fastest. Avoid it on Tuesdays and Fridays.

  • Animal Kingdom
    Recommended on Tuesdays and Thursdays, when Pandora has less waiting.
