Advice from Disney parents
Personal help from start to finish
Four parks. So many possibilities.
Four parks. You will not do all of them in one day.
Most first trips are Magic Kingdom plus one other park. We will tell you if a third park day is worth the ticket.
Classic stories & castle days
Magic Kingdom
Storybook adventures, familiar characters, and that first walk down Main Street, U.S.A.

Discovery & a world of flavor
EPCOT
A mix of imaginative attractions, world cultures, and plenty to taste along the way.
Family tip: Balance the grown-ups’ wish list with the kids’ must-dos and a comfortable walking pace.
Big-screen adventures

Too many lovely choices?
Tell us your dates, party size, and budget. We’ll help you build a shortlist.
Tickets that match your pace
Choose how you want to explore.
More options don’t automatically mean a better trip. We’ll help match your tickets to the days you actually want to have.
One park each day
Standard Theme Park Ticket
Spend each valid ticket day at one of the four theme parks. You can choose a different park on a different day.
Our planning take: A good starting point for families who prefer a simpler daily plan.
More freedom in your day
Park Hopper Option
Visit more than one of the four theme parks on the same day, subject to park capacity and applicable ticket rules.
Our planning take: Worth comparing if you like to change parks for dining, attractions, or evening plans.
Park days + extra play
Water Park and Sports Option
Enjoy one theme park per day plus a set number of visits to eligible water-park and recreation experiences.
Our planning take: Consider this when you’re setting aside time for activities beyond the four theme parks.
Hopping + extra play
Park Hopper Plus Option
Combine visits to multiple theme parks in a day with a set number of visits to eligible water-park and recreation experiences.
Our planning take: Compare it when both park hopping and extra recreation are part of your plan.
Water-park and recreation visits are subject to operating schedules and ticket terms. Some special events and experiences need separate admission. We’ll confirm what is included before you book.

Our Disney planning and booking help is free when you book your vacation through us. We’ll explain the trip costs and optional extras so you can decide what fits your budget.
