In what order to go to the parks??

[MinnieMommyy8]

Hello all this is our first disney trip. We will be going June 27-July1. We will be going to the parks the 28th-1st which is tuesday through friday. I was hoping to get some feedback/ideas as to in which order to go to the parks. We have baseb4 day tickets.

I don't think you have to do them in a certain order. Seeing the MK opening show the first morning might be nice, and Tuesday is generally a good MK day anyway according to various touring plan sites, so that might work out. Then go in whatever order you prefer or is suggested through EasyWDW or Touringplans.

If it were me...
28th-MK
29th-EPCOT
30th-DHS
1st-AK

ETA: I avoid EMH crowds

Whatever order puts me in the recommended park on that day

I would agree that order is not that important. When they allow the disney hotel guests into a park for extra magic hours, that seems to load up that park for the day with a lot of extra guests. Even when staying at a disney place yourself, the extra people in the park all day long can turn into long lines outside of the extra magic hour or 2.

We like to do MK on our first day but for the dates you are going and since it is your first visit I think it is more important that you try to choose the park that is most recommended by easywdw.com, which I really like as a guide. Folks could probably provide a bit more advice if you can provide the ages of your party. The key for your trip will be to get to the park before it opens so you can take advantage of the low crowds the first few hours.

Based on crowd calendars posted above:
June
28th - MK
29th - Epcot
30th - HS
July
1 - AK

Alternatively:
28th - AK
29th - Epcot
30th - HS
1st - MK

Depending on if you want to begin or end your trip with Magic Kingdom.

Also, if it works for your family, I would definitely recommend arriving before opening to MK (a little after 8:00 or sooner on a 9 am open day), then taking a break to your resort around lunch time to relax, swim, nap, eat--you'll get a break from the hottest part of the day and the longest ride wait time. Then return later in the day and stay until evening if the baby can handle it. You can follow up with sleeping in and arriving early afternoon in Epcot.

This is also what I would have suggested.

Probably worth noting that if you have park hopper tickets, HS is mostly a 1/2 day park, so you could always revisit MK or Epcot if you don't manage to fit it all in.
