Water park cost

[KEVD]

Never been to either WDW water park. We are considering going on our next trip. We'd probably just spend one day there rather than "park hop". If I look at the cost for a one day admission, it would be about $200 for all four of us. That's about what I'd expect. When I go to Undercover Tourist and look at the cost for Park Hopper +Water park, it's only an additional $20 per ticket. Not that I'm complaining but that seems crazy when you compare those two cost options.

1. Am I looking at the right info? Is it really only $20 per ticket to add the water park option to a park hopper?
2. If you add the water park option to a park hopper are there any limitations to the water park visit? For ex- can you only go in the afternoon (not spend the whole day there)?

1. Depending on the number of park admissions on your pass, the difference can be in the range of $20 per ticket on UT.
2. The WPF&M option does not restrict the hours during which you can enter the water parks. The mini golf admission must occur prior to 4 PM.

Thanks! I was looking at the 8 day.

Looking at the Disneyworld website (not including tax): https://disneyworld.disney.go.com/tickets/
If you have 2-3 park days, then Park Hopper is $50 and the combo Park Hopper+Water Park Fun&More is $90, so $40 add'l.
If you have 4-10 park days, then Park Hopper is $64 and the combo Park Hopper+Water Park Fun&More is $90, so $26 add'l.
From this info, you can interpret your savings by buying from UCT. Add 6.5% tax to Disneyworld prices to compare to UCT prices (where tax is already included).

The combo PH+WPF&M price makes Water Park cost less than purchasing a single day Water Park ticket. With the Water Park Fun&More option, you can visit a choice of 2 water parks (all day), choice of 2 mini golf venues (1 round, start before 4pm), DisneyQuest at DTD, Oak Trail 9-hole golf (1 round), and WWOS (if you have an event there). Each venue is one admission. That means you can't change water parks in one day unless you spend 2 admissions. Same for mini golf. But you can enter-leave-reenter same water park-same day for one admission. Same for DisneyQuest.

You can use WPF&M options on the same day as a park visit, or on a separate day. You can do more than one WPF&M option on one day, ex: Water Park, then DisneyQuest.

Your ticket will have 2 separate parts. Your park visits will be counted as "Park Days," and your WPF&M options will be counted separately as "WPF&M Entries." The number of WPF&M entries you get equals the number of park days you purchase. When you're using a WPF&M entry, you aren't touching your park visit entitlements.

If your vacation time permits, the WPF&M option is a real bargain addition to your Disney fun.

That's great to know. Thank you! So adding WPF&M is quite economical on a 4 - 10 day pass.

If you are planning to purchase a Park Hopper ticket anyway, adding the WPF&M option is cheaper than buying a one-day water park ticket. If you aren't planning to Park Hop, the WPF&M option costs more than a one-day water park ticket, but it also gives you more options and flexibility. If you think you'd like to visit more than one of the attractions included in the WPF&M option, its a good deal.

Yeah it's crazy, but you are correct.
