Help me Decide my Itinerary!

[pinkgirlmommy]

Help me decide! I have two days I am torn between picking parks. We have 3 day Park Hoppers, but reason we got the hoppers was to get the Free dining, so I don't necessarily need them. I do have the option. We already have MK on 12/20 all day and with the Evening EMH until 2 am now, we will have 12/21 as our resort day. I have 2 other days to go to parks- 12/19 and 12/22. I originally was only going to have 12/19 to do 1/2 a day at each, so I am excited that we can do a full day at each, and I have a Minnie's Holiday Dine booked for 12/19 and 12/22 until we decide. I want to got to Epcot 1 day and DHS the other. DHS has morning EMH 12/19 and Epcot has EMH 12/22. We do not plan on using the ones on 12/19 because it will be a later morning for us. We will be at MVMCP 12/18 until midnight, so I anticipate not making it early. 12/22 shows crazy crowds everywhere, so I don't really think it will matter where we go 12/22. So do we go to the parks that have EMH which would be DHS 12/19 and then Epcot 12/22 our last day, or do we go to the opposite parks and got to Epcot late morning on 12/19 and tour all day with no break and then DHS on our last day 12/22? If we do this i was thinking we could even hop into MK our last night 12/22 to see Wishes one last time? Or do we hop both days and do them both days? The main thing is I want to see Illuminations one night and Osborne lights the other night. I hear it is easy to hop between the two but we have never hopped before. We will have 5 people including a 6 year old and 11 year old, a scooter, and a vehicle we can use if that helps.

I'd recommend visiting easywdw.com to assist with the days regarding the busyness of each park and begin making decisions based off the data that is culled there.

Thanks I have! My days aren't on there and looking for other input as well!

Have you looked at Undercover Tourist's park recommendations?


Seems like MK on the 19th, Epcot on the 20th, HS on the 22nd is the right call with the 21st as your Resort Day, but if you switch HS and RD it might be better. But, you're in the belly of the beast regardless.

Thank you I had not! I didn't realize they had a crowd calendar too! Yeah I know it will be crazy but still excited!

I'm sure it will be magical even with near peak crowds. Weather should be perfect so the lines will be so much more tolerable.

Since you can't/don't want to get up early on the 19th for an early EMH, I'd definitely do the parks that do NOT have EMH. I wouldn't plan for hopping, but at least you know you can if you want to.
