Disney World has four main theme parks—Magic Kingdom, EPCOT, Hollywood Studios, and Animal Kingdom—as well as two water parks, Disney Springs for shopping and dining, and countless resorts. On our most recent trip, we focused on three unforgettable parks: Magic Kingdom, Hollywood Studios, and EPCOT. Each one offered a completely different experience, but all shared that unique Disney magic. If there’s one park you simply cannot miss, it’s Magic Kingdom. This park brought so much joy even for adults. With Cinderella’s Castle towering above the park as you enter the park, this is the place where childhood and adult dreams meet timeless adventures. The moment you walk down Main Street, U.S.A., you’ll feel the excitement in the air. I know we did. Everything felt so magical.
Here are some of our favorite attractions which included:
● Seven Dwarfs Mine Train – This family-friendly roller coaster takes you through the diamond mines of Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs. Perfect for kids, teens, and adults.
● Space Mountain – A true Disney classic, this indoor coaster blasts you through outer space in complete darkness. The thrill never gets old!
● Character Experiences – Meeting beloved characters is one of the highlights of Magic Kingdom. We loved Enchanted Tales with Belle, visiting Ariel’s Grotto, and spotting Aladdin characters in Adventureland.
Of course, no day at Magic Kingdom is complete without experiencing a Disney parade. The vibrant floats, dancing performers, and beloved Disney characters bring pure joy to kids and adults alike as they walk down Main Street. And don’t miss the fireworks spectacular at night—it’s a magical finale that lights up the castle and sky. This was an experience that brought so much joy to see. Magic Kingdom can be overwhelming because of its size, but don’t let that stop you from making this trip . We suggest that you wear comfortable shoes, arrive early, and plan your day in advance to maximize your time. And yes—don’t forget to grab a few souvenirs before leaving!
For the movie lovers and thrill seekers, Hollywood Studios is a dream come true. Here, Disney combines the magic of Hollywood with unforgettable rides, live entertainment, and incredible shows. It’s something here for everyone to enjoy.
Here are some must-do attractions:
● Millennium Falcon: Smugglers Run – Step into the cockpit of the Millennium Falcon and fly one of the most famous ships in the galaxy. This interactive Star Wars experience is thrilling for the whole family (as long as height requirements are met).
● Rock ‘n’ Roller Coaster Starring Aerosmith – A high-speed indoor coaster set to Aerosmith’s greatest hits. Racing through Los Angeles in a stretch limo was a highlight for us!
● Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance – This ride isn’t just a ride—it’s an adventure. You’re placed right in the middle of a battle against the First Order, complete with jaw-dropping effects.
● The Twilight Zone Tower of Terror – Not for the faint of heart, this ride drops you in a haunted elevator shaft. Perfect for thrill seekers!
● Slinky Dog Dash – A family-friendly coaster in Toy Story Land that makes you feel like a toy in Andy’s backyard. Kids and parents alike will love it.
Hollywood Studios also features spectacular stage shows, including Beauty and the Beast –Live on Stage, Indiana Jones Epic Stunt Spectacular, and Frozen Sing-Along Celebration. At night, the park comes alive with breathtaking light and music shows, making it worth staying until closing so prepare to stay to enjoy the scene here. Before we forget. If you’re a Star Wars fan, plan extra time for Galaxy’s Edge. The detail in this part of the park is incredible—you’ll feel like you’ve stepped right into another galaxy.
Would you like to travel around the world? EPCOT is truly unique—it allows you to travel the world without ever leaving Orlando. Divided into two main sections, Future World and the World Showcase, EPCOT blends cutting-edge technology, thrilling rides, and cultural experiences.
Here are some of the highlights which included:
● Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind – A must-do attraction that features the first-ever reverse launch on a Disney coaster. It’s fast, fun, and fully immersive.
● Mission: SPACE – Choose between two missions: an intense journey to Mars or a gentler orbit around Earth. Either way, you’ll get a realistic astronaut experience.
● World Showcase – Walk through pavilions representing 11 countries, each with its own food, entertainment, and architecture. Where else can you go from eating sushi in Japan to crepes in France in the same afternoon?
● Nighttime Spectaculars – EPCOT hosts stunning evening shows, such as Luminous:The Symphony of Us, which blends fireworks, lights, and music for a breathtaking experience.
EPCOT is also known for its seasonal festivals, including the International Festival of the Arts and the Food & Wine Festival. During these times, the park is filled with even more food options, cultural activities, and performances. Pack you some comfortable shoes because EPCOT requires a lot of walking, so pace yourself. Plan breaks for meals and consider focusing on a few pavilions if you’re short on time.
After enjoying the parks, don’t forget to explore Orlando’s shopping and dining options. We loved visiting the Orlando Vineland Premium Outlets, where you’ll find great deals on top brands. This Outlet is very big so please wear some comfortable shoes as you take in the different stores and places to eat while shopping. It’s a fun way to grab Disney gear, clothing, or gifts to take home.
For dining, Orlando is packed with amazing restaurants ranging from casual family dining to upscale experiences. Inside Disney World itself, you’ll find countless themed restaurants that make meals part of the adventure especially when you can receive food that is shaped like Mickey Mouse Ears. From candy apples, waffles, cookies, and so much more. Be sure to book reservations early at restaurants, as popular spots fill up quickly!
To help you make the most of your Disney trip, we would like to give you a few planning tips:
● Book early – Park reservations and resort stays fill up fast, so plan ahead.
● Use the Disney Genie+ or Lightning Lane – These services let you skip or shorten waits on popular rides. They’re worth it if you want to maximize your time.
● Pack wisely – Bring comfortable walking shoes, sunscreen, reusable water bottles, and ponchos (Florida weather can change quickly).
● Arrive early – The first hours of the day are the best time for popular attractions.
● Stay for the shows – Disney’s parades and nighttime shows are unforgettable highlights.
Visiting Magic Kingdom, Hollywood Studios, and EPCOT was truly unforgettable. Each Disney park offers its own unique charm and experiences that make every moment special. At Magic Kingdom, families step into a world of fairytales, where Cinderella’s Castle stands tall and timeless attractions bring beloved stories to life. Over at Hollywood Studios, the excitement continues with thrilling rides, Hollywood adventures, and immersive lands like Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge and Toy Story Land. EPCOT provides a journey across cultures and innovation, allowing guests to explore world pavilions, taste incredible food, and experience futuristic attractions—all tied together by Disney’s signature magic.
