Magic Kingdom 1-Day Touring Plan - Disney Theme Parks
Hi guys!!! I have seen that a lot of people have questions about what to do in the parks, where to go first, which FastPass to get... so I decided to make this suggestion of a Magic Kingdom touring plan in a way to avoid several queues! I hope it helps!
Magic Kingdom is a big park, with a lot of things to do, so this touring plan covers the main attractions of the park, both children's and roller coasters. It's important to avoid going to Magic Kingdom on Extra Magic Hours in the morning if you're not a Disney resort guest.
Recomended FastPass (FP):
-> Seven Dwarfs Mine Train (if not available, geto for Peter Pan’s Flight) around 10:00am.
-> Big Thunder Mountain por volta das 11h00am.
-> Splash Mountain around 12h00.
**Big Thunder Mountain and Splash Mountain are next to each other, so you should get the FastPass at times to go one after another. For example, FP of Big Thunder between 11.00 and 12.00 and FP of Splash between 12.00 and 13.00. That way, you can use Big Thunder's FP at 11:45 and then use Splash Mountain FP.
1. If the park opens at 9:00 am, arrive at the turnstiles at the latest at 8:30 am - if you are by car, you should plan to arrive at the parking lot at 8:00.
2. Starting at 8:30 am, you'll be able to go through the turnstiles and watch the Magic Kingdom's opening show, welcoming everyone.
3. Once access to the park is cleared, go straight to Fantasyland and do the attractions:
- Peter Pan’s Flight (If your FP is for Seven Dwarfs Mine Train, Peter Pan should be your first ride. If you didn't get FP for Seven Dwarfs, go straight there, and use your FP for Peter Pan later)
- Under The Sea (Pequena Sereia)
- Dumbo
- It’s a Small World
- Mina dos 7 anões (no horário do FP+)
- Winnie the Pooh
4. Go to Tomorrowland and do the following attractions:
- Space Mountain
- Tomorrowland Speedway
- Buzz Lightyear
5. Go to Frontierland** and do the following attractions:
- Big Thunder Mountain, using your FP
- Splash Mountain, using your FP
**On the way from Tomorrowland to Frontierland, you will pass Liberty Square, where the Haunted Mansion attraction is. Check the queue time and how much time is left for your FP. If you have time, you can go to Haunted Mansion before Big Thunder and Splash. If you do not have time, return to Haunted Mansion later.
6. Lunch
7. Around 1:30pm, look for a place to watch the Parade at 2:00 p.m. It may be somewhere on Main Street (recommended) or Frontierland.
8. Go to Adventureland and do the following attractions:
- Pirates of the Caribbean
- Jungle Cruise
9. Return to Fantasyland and go to Mickey's Philharmagic. If you have not been to Haunted Mansion yet, go now.
10. Time to take pictures with characters and photos in the park. If you go to Epcot, do not worry about taking pictures with Mickey, Minnie and Goofy here, because in Epcot you will be able to find all 3 with only one queue. Prefer the other characters and princesses. It's also cool to ride the train that goes around the park.
11. At night, find a place in the hub in front of the Castle to watch Happily Ever After, the fireworks show. It's an amazing show, be sure not to miss it!!
