Hi all! There are so many crowd calendars on the internets these days... which one is the most accurate?? Any experiences??
 
Everyone has a different opinion, and every crowd calendar site has its proponents and detractors. Despite what their fans will say, no crowd calendar is right all the time. Each one can provide you with a valuable perspective. Look at them all and take away whatever information is useful to you. The one thing that seems to be consistent is that having a good touring plan is way more important than what day of the week you choose to go.
 
I've been burned by relying on crowd calendars, so I ignore them now. WDW is currently undergoing a major shift in attendance patterns, so all of the crowd calendars are much less reliable now than they were years ago.

Our last two trips were in January and May. Both times the calendar was off. The MK was crazy crowded on a Sunday in January although the crowd calendar had it at a 3-4. Then on a weekend in May it was suppose to be crowded, it was actually very manageable and less crowded than our January visit.
 
LOL! So I just looked at this for our June 1 trip and we are literally going to the "not recommended" park every day! :tongue:

:hyper2: Sometimes it works out that way.

You have to start somewhere to plan. We have used Touring Plans for 10 years. We like it. Is it the best? I don't know, but I like it.
 
I have used easywdw.com for our last two trips and it has served me well.

Plus, I enjoy the blog posts Josh puts up.

No worries....on Josh's site he has touring plans for each park and you'll have a a good idea of how to tour and maximize your time. Just have fun!
 
I use both touringplans and easywdw. the "mostly" agree. I've recently looked at undercover tourist also, but it seems to be very different from the other two. Trying to plan for December trip has been difficult as none of these sites have full December hours. Josh at easywdw hasn't even put up the November crowd calendar due to all the changes going on, and touring plans has been updating december day by day as disney puts out hours. Frustrating!
