Worst Parks-Your Opinions

[DisneyGurlie]

I was just cruious to see what everyones "worst favorite" park is. I have NONE, I love disney all together. MK has fantastic rides and amazing memories. Epcot has amazing sights and a great big imagination. MGM I love the atmosphere and everything about that park. AK will always be my favorite because of that time when I went on ITTBAB and I screamed "mommy".

For me, every park has memories and lots of magic, I don't dislike any of them, and never will.

Worst park is Busch Gardens...sooo NOT worth the drive! We had 3 rides break down on us and even had to climb down a rollercoaster hill because we got stuck half way up! As for Disney, I love them all!

 

[DisneyGurlie]

I don't like any other parks other than Disney! I can't go to any of those "half sized" replicas of the biggest happiest place on earth.

Sorry, but I have to say AK. There are only two or three things that I do there and even though the safaris and seeing the animals are cool, they're not cool enough to draw me in.

Six Flags in New Jersey is horrible. The people that go there now make it horrible.

 

[MomWith2Cinderellas]

We love WDW! Here is Texas I found Six Flags Over Texas just plain awful. It was not clean, the character costumes where dirty in appearance, and the counter service there was unappetizing. JMHO.

 

[DisneyGurlie]

Any park outside of wdw, is not the same. Personally, I don't think you'll ever find the same magic.

This park is just laid out awful, by the time you get from the bus let off, and walk to the turnstile, the hot
Florida sun on the concrete walk has you fried. The park with all the foliage and such, does not let in any breezes, pathways are narrow and tend to clog with people and planning a touring route is impossible without backtracking all over. we usually just skip this park all together, the other 3 parks are way more user friendly. I also have a vast hatred for zoos in general, animals should be left in the wild where they were in the first place.

I dont have any worse favorite I love them all, and would be difficult to select a favorite. Downtown Disney has the least draw for me as I see it as a 'drinking' or shopping Park. Pleasure Island - we dont drink that much on vacation or leave our kids, as it is our family quality time.

 

[lisaj]

Not keen on EPCOT, find the 'fake' world to be good for food and shopping but nothing else and the rest of EPCOT is just ok!

I like all the parks at WDW, each for different reasons. But MK will always be my favorite.

As for parks outside the World, I'm not a park snob. I realize that I'm not at Disney when I'm at these other parks and appreciate them for what they are. I had a wonderful vacation at Cedar Point a few years ago, being the roller coaster junkie I am. I also love Busch Gardens in Williamsburg. It's laid out beautifully and well kept. And Hersheypark is great as well. I never have a problem there. King's Dominion has gotten a little rundown as of late, but I still enjoy the rides. But absolute least favorite park is Six Flags America outside DC. Awful, awful park and so not worth the money.

Six Flags in New Jersey is horrible. The people that go there now make it horrible.

Parents refuse to take me to 6 flags. We life about 2 hours away. They say its dirty, and for the same reasons as you, the customers trash it.​

As for the worst Disney Park, me and my family all agree that its AK. It just doesnt have that Disney magic that the other parks have. Mabey because it's newer? i dont know.​

 

[Pooh Bear Hugs]

FlamingoLand in the UK. In Florida Pleasure Island.

 

[tinkandpan]

In WDW- I would say AK, just too hot and crowded there. Outside - I too would agree that the element at 6 flags in Jersey just makes it a nasty place lately.

 

[tskover57]

I would have to say I love all the parks at disney. They each have their own excitement to them, but MK is my all time favorite. Now outside of Disney is a different story. I live in ohio, really close to Geauga Lake, which used to be a six flags, I dont like it and havn't been there is a few years and I dont plan on wasting my money there, they just took out like 3 costers. Now cedar point is sooo much better, I love it there. But all together cedar point and disney cannot compare!! Disney has a magic that can't be found anywhere its a warmth in yor heart!!

Our least favorite park in Disney is MGM.

I'll just quote my post from another thread.

We agree.

I mean, we enjoyed it the first time but we are going over the list of attractions and there is not much we want to do again...

Also, the Lights, Motors, Action show was terrible for me and for some reason my eyes burned intensely during the show.
Very disappointing

These are the only things I want to see next trip there (I enjoyed Indy, Muppets, One Man's Dream and such but I wouldn't say they were worth a second visit):

The Great Movie Ride
Backlot Tour (MAYBE)
Beauty and the Beast (didn't see last time)
Voyage of the Little Mermaid (didn't see last time)
Osbourne Lights (hoping they'll be up)
Fantasmic!

(There is no Star Tours because we don't like SWs, and no ToT and RnRC because we are not big thrill ride people )

We'll probably sleep in and then go visit these five things.

But yep, its just missing magic...the theming doesn't make much sense. First you are on Hollywood Boulevard, then you are at....some lake with Star Wars and Indiana Jones? Then you are at New York City? It really makes no sense

We also (even though we never went without it) think that the hat is ugly and that it should be removed.

The layout is bad too...of the four parks we found ourselves looking at the map in confusion more then anywhere else in MGM.

MGM is easily the worst for us

 

[bellelab]

Wow, a lot of people really dislike AK! That is one of my favorites as well as MK.

My least favorite is MGM but that may be because I've got a 2-year-old and the only thing she really liked was the Muppets, Playhouse Disney, and Little Mermaid.

 

[bennythepug]

MGM is our least fav park

 

[M-I-C-K-E-Y]

Animal Kingdom isn't just our least favorite, it's the one park that we simply don't plan on visiting again. Our last two visits there have been disappointing and we've left both times and headed to other parks. Narrow walkways, open air EVERYTHING (in August!) and little respite from air conditioning in a rain forest type of sticky atmosphere (from all those plants and their necessary water consumption!)

I've spoken with others, and it's pretty much agreed upon that if you grew up near a major zoo, that AK isn't that special. MK, Epcot and MGM (in that order) round our our favorites.

At Disney, there isn't one that I dislike, but if we were going to skip one it would probably be MGM. It is the park I least enjoy touring because so many of the attractions are things we split up for at this point, with one child too small and too timid to ride the thrill rides and another who doesn't want to sit through the "girly" Little Mermaid and Beauty & the Beast shows.

Outside of Disney, I'd say Geauga Lake has been our least favorite. I've gone there off and on going all the way back to the days of there being a SeaWorld in Ohio, and with every change of ownership, it seems to get worse. Aside from that, I haven't been to any parks that I haven't enjoyed, but I love roller coasters, water slides, and thrill rides of every shape and size.
