See how we conquered 4 Disney Parks in 1 day! Our 4 park challenge took us to Magic Kingdom, Animal Kingdom, EPCOT & Hollywood Studios. No meltdowns, just magic.
Warning: This is not for first time Disney guests!!
This wild idea started as a last minute end of a no Disney World Florida trip (…FAIL). See our previous travel blog to hear about what we actually went to Florida to do- Florida: A Journey Outside of the Parks.
The Challenge: Our four Disney parks in one day adventure took us to Magic Kingdom, Animal Kingdom, Hollywood Studios, AND EPCOT- all in a single day…No pressure.
The Game Plan:
Before we even scanned into our first park, we had a strategy. On the bus ride to each destination, we pulled up the park map, talked through our priorities, and mapped out our most efficient route (down to grabbing snack options.)To make it doable (and honestly, more fun), we each picked one “must-do” ride or experience in every park (plus one bonus if time allowed.)
Magic Kingdom Highlights
Darci: Buzz Lightyear (a family fave when my son was little and happiest of Disney memories)
Ashleigh: Haunted Mansion
Bonus: Everything was Halloween themed! There were decorations, fun activities, and themed shows to see 🙂
Hollywood Studios Highlights
Both: Rise of the Resistance (We’re both Star Wars nerds)
Darci: Rockin’ Roller coaster (I stood in line for a LONG time…then the ride broke!)
Ashleigh: Toy Story Mania (One of my favorite movies!)
Animal Kingdom Highlights
Darci: Avatar Flight of Passage (Brand new ride at the time!!)
Ashleigh: It’s Tough To Be A Bug!
EPCOT Highlights
Both: Dinner in France
Darci: Figment (Another family fave memory)
Ashleigh: Fireworks
Final Count:
4 parks
16 miles walked
0 regrets
1 crazy, magical, unforgettable day
Would we do 4 Disney Parks in 1 day again? Definitely!
With the right travel partner, the right shoes, a good park bag, and a whole lot of coffee! But for now, we’re just proud we made it… and had a blast doing it our way!
