which to leave out: AK, MGM, EP

We just went to all 4 parks in Sept. and the least fav. among my girls DD3 and DD7 was AK. There weren't many rides and some of the walking trails/exhibits just bored them after awhile... and they were too small for some of the bigger rides. They absolutely loved Epcot and we actually spent 2 days there! The kidcot stations were so much fun for them! MGM had a lot of fun character interaction and the Little Mermaid show was a big hit!!

Here's why I would skip AK (my opinion):

I'm into bang for your buck and although I really like AK, there are only a few activities my kids (2 & 5) experience. They go on the safari ride (my DS fell asleep on it two different visits), play in the boneyard, visit the characters (only did that once), and go on the dinosaur twirl ride (like dumbo).

Some of the other attractions are too scary (bug's life), or they are too small to go on the attractions. We have walked the trails (nice way to see the animals), but I don't remember them ever talking about it after the fact.

I find that with only a couple attractions they like to visit, there is a lot of walking! Lots and lots of walking!

Not a lot at MGM either, but the park is more condensed.

The whole family loves EPCOT. Don't miss the lady at the Japanese pavillion who makes the candy animals. She has been there at least 5 years if not more. She always has a huge crowd watching her. The kids liked doing the masks too.

Good luck on your descision.

Do you really need 2 full days plus a party day at the MK? Take advantage of the early entry to the party-you should be able to do almost everything in the evening-then you do not need to skip any park during the trip.

We are going in March and we are skipping Epcot. The walk around the countries is nice but DD not into that. Sorin we did last yr, nice I can do with out. So that leave Test track. Great ride, but I'm not paying to go into Epcot for one ride.

My vote, Epcot.


Good luck with your decision!!!!!

I am going in March and was having a hard time deciding if we should skip on of the parks. It's my sons' first trip and all my 10 year old talks about is the outdoor water parks (we have none up here in Alaska, little to cold). So must take them there. I am thinking about doing what another poster suggested and that's do AK in the morning and MGM in the evening. Both of my sons have a few must does in each park.
