General Park Tips:
- Study the
descriptions and maps to familiarize
yourself with the names and themes of
the lands before you arrive.
- Check the Tip
Board at the end of the main
thoroughfare in each major park. Its
continuously updated with wait times and
closings.
- Plan your
visit around the things that are most
important to you or require advanced
planning (like restaurant reservations or show
times). Beyond that, we feel it is more enjoyable
to go with the flow from attraction to attraction
within each land.
