    Speak to the cast members about any dietary requirements you might have.. for example, the Plaza Ice Cream Parlor on Main St has dairy free options. Also make sure to get the Dole Whip at Aloha Isle!

    The Mickeys Christmas Party is worth the money! And they will kick you out if you don't have the white band for it. Cookies are the same at every station but super good! Hot chocolate good!!

    Atmosphere is amazing, each section emulates the world perfectly . You do have to get past the amount of people but that is what should be expected from these places. Amazing "cast members".

    If you want to watch the fireworks away from the crowd watch it from the Swiss Family Treehouse in Adventureland! It has a great view of the castle!

    Live again the magic. Do not miss the open ceremony 20 min before park opens. Prepare you fast pass for dwarf mine, splash mountain and space mountain. Do not miss the parade at 5

    My favorite place in the world. If you're staying on property,remember to get there for rope drop in the AM, leave midday, then back later for Magic Hours! You'll avoid crowds, and maximize your time!

    It's really important to use FastPass on crowd days. You should consider to have breakfast / lunch with characters at Tucker House too. It's amazing specially for kids.

    An amazing park, go early (10 am or 11 am) you might need 5-6 hours staying here. Very interesting & spacious. Don't forget the Fireworks Show by 8 pm. Enjoy your time. من الأماكن الممتعة في أورلاندو

    Busiest day of the year is Independence Day, but don't let that deter you! Fireworks are a sight to see. Don't forget to witness Disney movie projections throughout the years on the castle at night!

    The 3rd time I've been (the 2nd time in 2 years) from the UK. It's not cheap, but if you get your tickets early you can get 3 Fast Pass and book the big rides at a decent time each day you are there.

    Relax on Main Street with an ice cream, pick up a Citrus Swirl or Dole Whip in Adventureland and find a quiet tropical corner, or ride the future on the Peoplemover! So many chances to relax.

    If the park is open late enough it's well worth staying after the fireworks and going on more rides. This past Saturday it was open until 1am, but we were able to do several big rides in under 2 hours

    October is by far the best month of the year to visit the Magic Kingdom. The weather is perfect and the decorations are beautiful. Also, the waits are very reasonable!

    Fun for all ages. Schedule your fast passes a day in advance if you have the multi day ticket. You can also add more fast passes once you use the first 3; just go to a FP+ kiosk to add more fun!

    One of those places you must have visited. Bring a sun hat, sun screen, water bottles (refill at the free watering holes), parasol recommended and use the app to get into rides with a fast pass.

    What's not to like?! Everything is great. Just be prepared. Bring a backpack with water and lunch. Food can be pricey, so with a little planning, you can save a few bucks on an expensive day out.

    The original park in Florida. Excellent park, that has has enough updates to really make it relevant for the whole family. Check out Monsters inc Laugh floor and all the Coasters shows and parade.

    Amazing day out! Be sure to pace yourself so you can stay all the way until the fireworks. Bring your own food and drinks - very expensive otherwise!

    Take the ferry when you get to the park. The slow ride if weather permits is great. Hop onto the vintage steam locomotive with stops in frontier and fantasy land. Keep an eye out for parades and shows

    The happiest place on earth! Get a fastpass and skip the long lines. Be prepared for large crowds. Make dining reservations WAY in advance. And please be kind to your fellow park goers!!!

    Plan your visit before you come. There is a well-organized baby center where you can go and take care of your baby. It includes a nursing room, a changing room, eating room, and a kitchen.

    I think Magic Kingdom has been my favorite Disney Park so far. There are definitely more rides here and even though xmas day was insanely crowded, surprisingly line wait time was not bad at all!

    It's really magic... first visit in my mid 20's, and felt I was 10 again, the "wishes" show projected onto the castle is jaw dropping! make sure you get a good spot to see it.

    Go to the train station at the front of the park for Wishes to get a full view of the show with no people! Also get a FP for a ride, ride something else with 1 hr wait, then go and use your FP!

    The best of the four Disney World, especially for first timers. Palpable atmosphere and theming at every single ride and location. Friendliest staff, cleanest facilities; all classic Disney.

    Finally returned to Magic Kingdom after several years. And this place is truly magical. It reunites you with your inner child. From all the original rides, to the new attractions in Fantasyland.

    Great park. Lots of fun activities, rides and character sightings for the kids. Spend some time planning the previous night on what you want to see and sign up for fast pass.

    The fresh ice cream cookie sandwich @ Sleepy hallow is a must get dessert along with Lafous Brew at the new Fantasy land. Lafous brew sweet drink is Disney land version of butter beer @ universal.

    Awesome park, with many themeparks for every age and everybody. Pretty busy, 2-3 full days are needed. Best compared to Epcot and Hollywood. Very well organized in every way. A must visit place.

    Get here when the park opens. Immediately get fast passes for the big rides like Space Mountain, Splash Mountain, any of the mountains. Then do the smaller rides and goof off between fast passes.

    Ask for a cup of water with your meal purchase. Some snack restaurants will give you a free cup (instead of $2.50 per bottle of water). Refill at the water fountains.

    The OG of Theme Parks. When you think of Walt Disney World, this park is quite likely what comes to mind. With an eye on the past, present, and future the MK has something for everyone.

    Pineapple Dole Whip in Adventureland ~ super tasty, but REALLY sugary. I would suggest just getting the ice cream instead of the float. It's huge!

    This is where it all began in Florida for Disney. Great park. You always get that feeling when you come out from under the train station and see the castle. Gets you every time.

    For a wider selection of Minnie ears, visit the Box Office Gifts - located at the Town Square Theater, also less busy than the emporium.

    Escape reality and be a big kid for the day! Magic Kingdom is, well, “magic”! A fantasy land, re-creating old-school Disney worlds. So cute and fun. It’s crawling with kids and prams/strollers though.
