Advice for touring plans/crowd calenders please

[c3h3a3r]

Hi, we are visiting from the UK 27th July - 10th Aug. I am trying to plan our days so that I can book any ADRS and so I can generally start planning. However, conflicting crowd calenders/best park to visit, from easywdw and undercover tourist are confusing me! Planning to do 1 day AK, 1/2 days HS, 1/2 days MK, 1/2 days Epcot, 2 days IOA, 2 days US and a couple days water parks. I want to get the right park on the right days before planning each day. So far the 2 different Sites only agree on 4 days

Hi! Don't have a lot of advice about the days your pick for each park, but in my opinion, you are not giving yourself enough park time at MK and Epcot. Both of these parks are AT LEAST 1 whole day parks, and most often 2 days per park. They are big with lots to do and see. 1/2 day at each is just not a lot of time. Hope you have a fabulous trip

Consider the Park Hopper ticket -- it costs a bit more but increases your flexibility. With it you can visit one Park for a half day (always go EARLY if crowds concern you), return to your room for a rest and pool time, and then go to another park for evening events and dinner. And I agree with the previous post that a half day at MK and Epcot is simply not enough.

As far as crowds, we have used Undercover Tourist for years, and they seem to be pretty reliable.

Try the crowd calendar at Touringplans.com. Maybe a third opinion will help round out your choices.

Sorry, I meant 1 or 2 days, not half a day lol

I've never used Undercover Tourist for Crowd Calendars, so I can't comment on the accuracy.

I have used EasyWDW, Touring Plans, and Kenny the Pirate. Generally I compare which park they don't recommend going to (which they usually agree) and just pick one of the others.

Then I make my FP+ reservations from 11 onwards (or 1pm onwards depending on your lunch plans - we're rope droppers) and we always have a great time!

No matter what you pick, it is a generally busy time of year, so keep that in mind and go with the flow (after making a plan of course).

my fave calendar and advice is easywdw.... usually spot on with recommendations.....

 

[JaimeK]

Are you avoiding EMH? Then I would go with the easywdw.

 

[c3h3a3r]

We are staying off site, so yes was going to avoid EMH

I've had the best luck with Easy WDW.
