Can I see Disney World in five days?
Yes. Use one day for each of the four parks and a fifth day for a rest day or your favorite park. Start each park early, take a midday break and book dining around the park days.
Five days gives you time for all four parks without rushing. The plan below suits families with children aged about 6 and up. Adjust the order to the opening hours and crowds for your dates.
The plan
| Day | Plan | Priorities |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Magic Kingdom | Arrive at opening for TRON, Seven Dwarfs Mine Train or Big Thunder. Midday pool break, return for fireworks. |
| 2 | EPCOT | Start with Remy's Ratatouille Adventure or Test Track. Lunch and a festival snack tour. Evening World Showcase. |
| 3 | Rest or pool day | Sleep in, pool, resort exploring, Disney Springs dinner. |
| 4 | Hollywood Studios | Rope drop Rise of the Resistance or Slinky Dog Dash. Indoor attractions in the afternoon. |
| 5 | Animal Kingdom | Early safari, Pandora, Festival of the Lion King. Finish by mid-afternoon. |
How to use it
- Put the busiest park on an early weekday. Check our crowd calendar for your dates.
- Use early entry. Resort guests get 30 minutes of early entry at the park they are visiting.
- Hold dining for after rope drop. Book table-service meals 60 days ahead.
- Keep the middle of the day light. A pool break makes the evening better.
- Leave day 3 open. It is your buffer for weather and rest.
