disney animal kingdom tickets
Can you give me any info on the parks in Orlando? Magic Kingdom, Animal Kingdom, Epcot or Disney Hollywood ?

I was thinking about getting a package of 7 day magic your way tickets to choice of, Magic Kingdom, Animal Kingdom, Epcot or Disney Hollywood Studios. I heard wonderful things about Magic Kingdom but I have heard nothing on the rest. Can you please tell me if it is worth going to the other parks? I just found out the prices for a 3 day ticket and a 7 day ticket are olny a few dollars difference. Please let me know what you think. I have never been to Orlando. Thank you.

I have been to Disney many times before, and can not wait to go back again. You didn’t say really what you were expecting, or if you have children, so I am going to try and sum up the parks without copying and pasting other sites information, because obviously you can see that yourself.

MAGIC KINGDOM
This is the truly “Disney” theme park. It is home to the rides like Pirates of the Caribbean and Haunted Mansion which have movies to go along with them. There are a ton of Disney themed attractions like Stich’s Great Escape, Monster’s Inc Comedy Floor, Mickey;s Philharmagic, Buzz Lightyear’s Space Ranger Spin, Many Adventures of Winnie Pooh, Cinderella’s Golden Carrousel and of course her castle. There are also the classics like Space Mountain, It’s a Small World and Big Thunder Mountain RailRoad.

EPCOT
This park is broken into two sections. Future world is an area for learning… a majority is hands on. There is then a few rides like The Land which shows steps towards growing healthier veggies, crops, etc. There is a great interactive show called Turtle Talk with Crush that will have little kids saying “dude” all day long. Spaceship Earth shows the advances of communication over the ages. And Mission: Space will have you blasting into space.. quite literally… the ride is equipped with barf bags!
The other part of Epcot is the World Showcase. In this section of Epcot there are 11 countries from around the world represented there. The workers are natives of the country (usually doing a one year contract) so you know the food, language and merchandise is authentic.

HOLLYWOOD STUDIOS
Revolves around the movie industry. You can ride the Twilight Zone’s Tower of Terror and rock out with Aerosmith on his Rock’n Rollercoaster. At the other end of the park is the Great Movie ride, which acknowledges the great films like the Wizard of Oz, Casablanca and other “classics.” There is also the Lights, Motors, Action Extremem Stunt Show that will have you wondering how they drive their cars, bikes and waverunners the way they do without crashing.

ANIMAL KINGDOM
This is Disney’s newest park. It isn’t a zoo, and animals are not out in full force. I’ve been to AK twice, and didn’t have a good experience either time. We won’t go back, but if you have never been there it is worth checking out for yourself. There are countries represented like Asia and Africa. There is a conservation center, river rapids and a safari. There is also a Dinosaur themed section.

I don’t know how to narrow it down. So, I’ll say this… the price difference between an adult 3 day base ticket and a 7 day base ticket is only $15. Splurge and spend the extra $15. Likewise, the price difference for children is only $14. Check out all of the parks and then you will knowwhat you like and what you don’t on your next vacation.
