Is it possible to do enough?

[mich723]

I'm possibly doing a last minute trip to Disney at the end of August. I'm looking at doing August 24th through August 28th.

I'm planning for August 24th to be a Downtown Disney day.
August 25th - Magic Kingdom?
August 26th - Epcot?
August 27th - Hollywood Studios?
August 28th - Animal Kingdom?

I have question marks, since I'm trying to use the full days that I'm there for the bigger parks. I only really want to see the tree in Animal Kingdom, and walk around a bit. So I thought the day that I leave, I can cover that in the morning.
Though, is that enough time to spend at the parks? Should I concentrate on doing just Magic Kingdom and Epcot and cut out the other parks? Or is it possible to enjoy all four in those four days? That's my main question.

we've done 4 parks in 4 days during busy Spring Break and were able to do a lot. just go at park opening and you will be able to accomplish quite a bit. The crowd calendars also show really low crowds during those days so you probably will be okay. i would say go to all 4, especially if you have never been to them.

I think that time of year should not be as crowded as the normal summer since most schools will be back in session by the end of your trip, so in 4 days you can do quite a bit a the parks. If this is your first time, 4 days will likely not be enough to have a relaxing time as well as see Everything, but you could definitely hit all the major attractions and also relax a bit --- you will need to make sure to get to the park at opening each day --- we are always surprised how much we can do before lunch - even during busy periods. & of course, make good use of the FastPass. At AK, if you get there at opening, you can usually be done there by 3-4 PM. You could then spend the evening at MK or Epcot. Disney Studios can also be done in about 1/2 to 3/4 of a day depending on whether you just wanted the major attractions or not. That would basically give you 1.5 days at Epcot & 1.5 days at MK.

if you are treating this as a "we want to see as much as we can" trip, then you can accomplish a lot if you are prepared to:

-be there when the park opens
-are willing to be exhausted at the end of each day, but are prepared to do it all over again the next day

While I like this, some people do not and prefer a more relaxed pace. If you want a more relaxed pace, select 2-3 parks you are most interested in and focus on those. Regardless of what you do, it is still impossible to see everything...but it's sure fun giving it a try!

Good luck and have fun!!!

Always check the extra magic hours for each park.
My advise is to keep AK at the end. It is the park that my family stays the least amount of time in. Also since you know you don't want to do very much in that park you can always cut it out last minutes to do other things you might have missed on your designated park day.

I think you have a good plan to do MK and Epcot on your first 2 days so you can then make the decision as to whether you want to return to those instead of going to the other parks. If you don't get to do it all on those days, your plan can be flexible.
