No interest in Animal Kingdom ? Have you ever been there ? I think I would have done all the not WDW places in a row beginning or end of trip but so many other things to consider Are you staying on property or off ?

Is there a special reason you are going to drive out to Tampa for BG? I would swap that day out for Animal Kingdom. You will get your thrill rides at Universal and you can see the animals at AK.

Great point, she/he said she/he had all the tickets though so it may be too late looking at about 3 hours R/T right ?

Add AK for your Friday arrival. (I notice you said you wanted to add a park there.)

Honestly I'd probably do more WDW but hey that's just me.

 

[Mordinar]

What about hitting AK on arrival day? or do one of the universal parks (2+1 ticket)? I'm guessing I can be at the park by 1 pm. I will be staying off-site at the Marriott Grande Vista.


7 Arrival Animal Kingdom by 1 p.m
8 Universal Studios
9 Island of Adventure
10 Epcot Center
11 Magic Kingdom

Did you check the crowd calendars? Easywdw has ones that can be helpful (google easywdw and february 2014)

I would do Hollywood Studios on arrival day and then maybe move AK to the 12th. But I would check the crowd calendars first.

When are you going to be here ? That could change the way we try to help you too meaning there could be something big going on ( another Marathon weekend coming up in Feb ) different time of year different park hours etc

You should look for the recommended days at one of the expert websites as suggested by ArwenMarie, but just generally speaking, i'd do Epcot on Saturday, Hollywood Studios on Thursday, and Magic Kingdom on Tuesday. If you have park hopper, you can get over the MK on a different night if you would miss the MSEP on Tuesday. (sometimes it isn't offered on Tuesday). As others have said, I'd hit AK on arrival night. Of course if it were me I wouldn't go all the way to Tampa, but I'm limiting comments to WDW only because I have no experience with nonWDW touring in central FL!

My comments are only to shuffle to lower-attendance days. You should be able to have a fabulous time whatever day you go. If you are set on the days, I'd recommend getting a good touring plan together especially for the Saturday at Magic Kingdom.

Used easywdw, think this is the best possible scenario to enjoy Disney parks. Im not to worried about the other parks as much as the Disney parks. I choose Busch Gardens because of childhood memories and I love thrill rides
