To go to park with EMH or not?

[susanccr]

We are staying on property 5/23/15 to 6/1/15. In doing research on what parks to go to on what days (no park hoppers) the parks that offer extra magic hours are not recommended due to heavier crowds. So I'm thinking about skipping EMH and going to the most recommended parks for each day. But I feel like I'm missing out on a perk that we get for staying on property. What do you all think? Do you usually hit the parks on days EMH is offered or no? Does it really make that much difference in the crowd levels?
Sorry so long. TIA!

You're going at a very busy time. I don't think EMh matters too much crowd wise during that time. We always use the extra time to our advantage for either morning dining or late night in parks. We don't waste EMH days unless it's something other than late night or morning MK and EP.

If you're staying on property, then partake in EMH. For those staying offsite, stay away from parks in the morning with early EMH.

You can get a lot done with AM EMH and PM EMH if staying on site. It's only not recommended on the touring sites for those staying off property to try to get them to parks with slightly lower crowds.

Fact of the matter, just because a park has EMH, it doesn't mean that park is going to be jam packed. Some people don't know at all about magic bands or fast pass+, imagine how many dont know about EMH.

1. So I'm thinking about skipping EMH and going to the most recommended parks for each day.

1. That's smart.
2. If you really want to do EMH, you should get hoppers.
3. Only if I have hoppers or I'm only doing a half day.
4. It makes an enormous difference. If the average crowd level is 5, the parks without will be 2s and 3s while the park with EMH will be a 6 or 7.

We go to the recommended parks for the day and avoid early EMH. We attend evening ones sometimes but we always find we're too tired to stay up
