where to check crowd levels

[maj42169]

Can anyone tell me what the website is that you can check the crowd levels of the parks?

I was wondering the same thing.

You can get up to a month out at touringplans.com. If you need a farther out date, you can either purchase a subscription for a year for $8.95 (that shows a calendar for a year out, updated periodically) or buy "The Unofficial Guide to WDW", which entitles you to a one year subscription (or subscription for that year??).

Or you can go here http://**************.net/planning-your-first-family-trip/when-to-go/next-best-dates/weeks-to-visit-ranked-in-order/estimating-walt-disney-world-crowds/ and look at their crowd calendar.

This site is mainly setup for first time visitors to the park but I found it just as handy for someone like me that has been more than once. Hope it helps you out as well...

The best place to determine which park to visit when is Tourguide Mike's!! We've used him several times now and he's always right on!

TGM being the best, is highly debatable on this board

I don't think you can say one or the other is the best. They all server a purpose. Also sometimes they get the crowd levels just right and other times not so right.

Are you just trying to decide which park which day? It is pretty easy to figure out on your own if you know about the daily offerings for each park during your trip. EMH parks will be busy because people will go and stay all day. If Fantasmic is only a couple of nights during the week then DHS will be PACKED on those days, stuff like that. This is the kind of stuff TGM and touringplans use to make their predictions. It isn't really anything secret.

The "my first visit" site is a good general overview of different times of year to help you decide when to go, but since I see you already have a trip planned I am assuming you want more detailed information.

Each of the sites has its own fans and detractors, but a lot of it is common sense if you do a little research on your own. Also, "crowded" is very subjective. Two people can be in the same park on the same day and report totally different crowd levels.
