Besides touringplans.com, what is a good way to decide which parks/which days? I'm not completely sold on touringplans.com list of the best parks & worst parks for any particular day. During my visit, the site suggests MK on Saturday.....ON SATURDAY! I always heard that was the #1 rule to follow - if you follow nothing else - avoid MK on Saturday! So, with the new EMH schedules & everything being so confusing - I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions for the least crowded park or which day scenarios. It was easy to figure all of this out 2 years ago!

I highly recommend www.TourGuideMike.com . Information, touring plans and advice from a VIP tour guide who's in the parks every day. We used his advice last year and never waited more than 10 minutes in line anywhere, even during high season!

Yes, I thought the same thing about Saturdays---please Read this thread

During regular attendance periods the Theme Parks tend to be the busiest on the following days:
Magic Kingdom® Park: Monday, Thursday, and Saturday
Epcot®: Tuesday and Friday
Disney-MGM Studios: Sunday and Wednesday
Disney's Animal Kingdom® Theme Park: Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday

From Disney's Website. Seems to have some truth to it, but I think it's old data.

Thanks for the link, PKS44.

Spoisal, I'd be interested in hearing what others recommend. I'd also be interested in hearing what data are used to come up with those recommendations. I'm not aware of any other organization actually recording and analyzing wait times at the parks, nor doing any kind of guest survey to see what days people visit the parks. If you happen to find one, let me know!

Thanks!

Len
