Post your favorite park challenges!

I thought it was odd that there wasn’t a theme park/resort challenge thread so here we go.
Post your favorite challenges! (ie: at WDW, all four parks with snack and ride in one day)

My latest challenge below:

Rabbit’s No Time to Say Hello Challenge!

Yay!

 

[tigerlilly]

Just read over your Rabbit's No Time challenge! What a fun idea! Especially for a runner (I am a walker...fast albeit...and your challenge sounds like a blast).

Our only challenges in WDW (and we do not get to go very often) have been all four parks/one ride/picture in front of icon in one day. We did this pre-covid years and it was great fun.

Also the good old drink around the World Showcase-we shared drinks and snacks and it was enjoyable.

We (just DH) and I are coming to WDW in Sept. and I would like to do all 4 parks in one day (just visit...no rides necessary) and visit every resort.

Clearly after reading your post I will need to step up my game lol. Hopefully others have some great responses.

We have done four parks/one day a couple of times. Pre-covid this was easier and more enjoyable, but it's still doable if you really want to do it. We rode at least one attraction, got a pic with the park icon and then got a pic with a character that we could meet in all 4 parks (Donald Duck the first year, kind of by accident without really planning to do it, Mickey the next year). We have also planned a day to do every single (open) attraction in the Magic Kingdom in a day before and succeeded.

Try the Late Night Double Dash challenge. The goal is to ride both Big Thunder and Splash Mtn during the same fireworks show.

The key is to start with Big Thunder. Splash unloads too slowly at night to beat the challenge.

Oh I like that one. Wonder if I can work in Dumbo fireworks as well. (My new fave, especially because many times you can stay in the ride 3 times in a row and watch a lot of the show)

my 7yo is really excited to do the Three (or Four) Mountain Challenge. I don't know about any other challenges unfortunately

My daughter and I did a genie+ challenge in mid May in a Saturday. We wanted to see how many attractions we could do from opening to closing at MK.

We were quite successful with constant refreshing. It helped to get our first LL that started at 9. Fun challenge.

I am planing to do the 4 parks in one day challenge but with the degree of difficulty of adding a ride of each Land.

So the schedule would be:

DHS (8:30 AM - 1:00 PM)
Galaxy Edge - Rise of the Resitance Rope Drop (or MMFR single rider).
Sunset Blvd - Tower of Terror LL
Hollywood Blvd - MMRR LL
Toy Story Land - Hopefully TSMM LL
Star Tours - LL
Hopefully do that before 1 PM so i can get lunch and move to second park

Epcot (2:00 PM - 4:30 PM)
World Showcase - 3 Caballeros (Maybe I would get Frozen here with my second FP and stan by on MMRR).
World Discovery - Test Track Single Rider stan by
World Nature - Living with the Land or Nemo stan by
World Celebration - Figment or Spaceship Earth stan by

AK (5:00 - 7:30)
Pandora - Navi River Journey (LL)
Africa - Safari LL
Asia - Everest Single rider Kali LL if available.
Dinoland - Dinosaur

MK (8:30 - 11:00)
Adventureland - Pirates
Frontierland - BTM
Liberty Square - Haunted Mansion
Fantasyland - Ariel
Tomorrowland - People Mover or Buzz

Sounds crazy and would need a lot of luck to put it off. I think it depends of how good I do in Epcot with the stan by lines and stacking the LL on AK and MK.


Another thing I wanna try is to eat around the Monorail Loop

Cocktail at Enchanted Rose at Grand Floridian
Dinner at Steakhouse 71 at Comptemporary
Dessert at Kona Cafe to go (the banana bread pudding!).

Nice plan for sure and as you said, very ambitious. And if you stay in deluxe on a wednesday, you get an extra 2 hours in MK. Also, AK opens earlier than the other parks so may consider making that the first park. Downside is you need 5 rides vs 4 rides when compared to HS. Although you may have already considered AK first.

The biggest challenge is not being able to hop until 2:00. If you started at AK you'd be done there by 10:00, and then have to waste 4 hours waiting to be able to hop.

Makes sense but I would think getting AK out of the way first helps with commute time. Sleep in, get AK done, be at HS right at 2. Do that, sky liner to Epcot, monorail to MK and done. If you do HS first, you’ll then hop to Epcot but then need to get over to AK which is out of the way and then get to MK from there.

I may want to get that drive/commute to AK out of the way before park hop.

In the end if it’s only saving 30 min maybe it doesn’t matter so much. Still fun tho!

That is amazing! Is that the order of your rides too? It would be so helpful to me to see the order in which you rode things.

Yep, that's the order. Our first LL was at 9:00AM sharp. I did not try for Jungle Cruise first. (Also, we went in with the attitude that JC and Peter weren't musts. They just happened to pop up!) Again, we lucked out with being "refresher" nerds and having quick fingers. We did not watch the parade or fireworks, though we saw them while heading to Thunder and waiting in the short queue. It was a moderately busy Sat (May 14th).
