Is it possible to go to Magic Kingdown, Hollywood Studios and Epcot all in one day?|168998

Is it possible to go to Magic Kingdown, Hollywood studios and Epcot all in one day? We would only do a few rides/shows in each, but is it possible? How close are all 3 to each other?

I am going to be blunt and say NO!

There is honestly so much to do, and it is soooo spread out that you really can_t do those park that quickly.

If you are looking to have a nice enjoyable day, just pick a park, and do that one for an entire day, and you will see that it will be a much more enjoyable experience!

Sure you could so long as you bought a park-hopper as an add on to your tickets which allows you to visit more than one park in a single day.

Allow 30-45 minutes for travel between each park. Epcot and the Ticket and Transportation Center (TTC) are connected by monorail, and the Magic Kingdom is connected by a separate monorail that also stops at the TTC. To get between Epcot and Hollywood Studios, you can walk, take a boat, or catch a bus.

See the underlined rides on this page for a version of don_t miss rides and attractions at each park!!:

Have a great trip!

Yes, if you want to create stress, long lines, and exaustion. They are far away from each other and you will wait in lines all day. The only way to avoid the lines is to go very early in the morning or very late at night, and you can_t do all four at those times. Although I strongly discourage it, I would advise you to go in this order:

Magic Kingdom 9:00-12:00
EPCOT 12:30-2:00
Animal Kingdom 2:30-5:00
Hollywood Studios 5:30-10:00

Hope you have fun, though Disney is soooooooooooooo much better if you space it out!

Wow! Very ambitious! In my experience, you might as well account for at the bare minimum, 30 minutes to transfer between parks. One hour is more likely, especially if you are using Disney_s transport. You might be able to move more quickly if using your own car. But it takes always takes more time than you think that it will.

I really wouldn_t try this, personally. Like you said, you will only have time to do a VERY few things in each park. Epcot is absolutely huge just to walk around. If you went in and just rode say, Mission: Space, Soarin, and Test Track which are the 3 biggest rides there, they are very close together. But the wait time is huge. And you may not be able to take advantage of Fastpass to skip the line later, because you may be going to another park later. So you could probably expect to spend at least an hour for each of those attractions. That_s 3 hours of your day, plus an hour for transfer. See what I mean? And that_s being conservative on time estimates.

If you insist on trying more than one park, I would recommend dropping Epcot simply because of its size. Start out at Magic Kingdom WHEN IT OPENS and hit the big rides right away. Switch to Hollywood Studios at lunch or slightly after. Check the opening/closing times on Disney_s website. Studios is sometimes open later because of showing Fantasmic. If it is closing early, go there first instead and finish at Magic Kingdom. Be prepared to rush, rush, rush!

I think it_s very rush. You may need to queue up in long lines just to take a few popular rides/shows especially during summer. Perhaps buying the Express queue tickets can save more time.

I was there last summer, and I visited only two parks in a day - first day was Animal Kingdom and Epcot; second day was Hollywood studios and Magical Kingdom (don_t miss the fireworks), and we missed some popular rides due to lack of time. All parks can be reached by Disney buses taken from Disney terminal, quite close to one another. If you have only a day, no choice, go Epcot, followed by Hollywood Studios as they will have parade march in the afternoon, then finally to Magical Kingdom and catch the awesome firework.

Infortunately not, I was there for 3 days and still coudln_t fit it all in. I mean, anything is possible, you can maybe make it to all 3 parks. But as far as getting to them all and doing rides in each one, whether it be just a few, there is not time for all of it.

Since a one-day park hopper, which is necessary to do more than one park in a day, costs over $100 it wouldn_t be cost effective to do. Plus you need to give yourself an hour to get from park to park (Walt Disney World is twice the size of Manhattan), so you_ve now wasted 2 hours of your day. I_d bet you only see one or maybe two things at each park.

Yes, you can visit all 3 parks in one day, but if you have never been to one or thee other you will miss-out on a lot of attractions and shows as you will run out of time.

Of course, you just need the park-hopper pass. It is a great thing, you can just go to one park to eat and another to ride the attractions.

No way... my mom took my nephews to disney and she told me you cant even see 1 whole park in 1 day... and the lines are LONG.. then you have to travel to the other parks too, so no....

I think you would be exhausted if you tried to do all that in one day! I would not attempt more than 2 parks in one day.

Of course, but you will miss a lot and be exhausted at the end of it.

What are the main attractions in Oahu, Honolulu and how could can i plan for a 2 day tour program?|127555

We are a family of 4 with 2 kids touring Oahu, Honululu for 2 days. Could you please advise the cheap and best mode of transportation to those places?

I used to live there. Cheapest way would be a rental car. You can go where you want - when you want. Places to see... I would go to Diamond Head volcano (You can drive in via a tunnel), The Honolulu Zoo (right next to the volcano at the East end of Kalakaua Blvd.), Hanauma Bay (East of the volcano going towards Kailua/Kaneohe), Polynesian Cultural Center in Laie (Getting closer to the North Shore), Sunset Beach (be careful of the undertow and coral DO NOT let the kids in those waters!! It_s dangerous), Haleiwa and head South down H2 through the Dole Plantation and Fort Shafter toward Pearl Harbor. Once at Pearl Harbor you can visit the Arizona Memorial, The Battleship Missouri and the Pompanito submarine.
Check out this route against a map for better accuracy of the route. Start at Waikiki then head East around the Island.Once at the Northern part of the Island, you_ll be heading South toward Pearl Harbor.Have fun!! There_s more to do of course.

Well, if you are only gonna be on Oahu around Honolulu area for two days, I would suggest renting a vehicle. I was gonna say get a four day Discovery Thebus bus pass, but it is $20.00 pp.

You really should get a rental car (go to Costco.com) then to Alamo Car rental. the cheapest is not that bad, you don_t have much time. Go to Pearl Harbor_s Arizona memorial tour--free. Go to any beach on the east or south shore. Sea Life park for the dolphin show, a luau but don_t go cheap, go to Paradise cove. Walk on Waikiki beach, and look at Diamond Head. Go up to the Pali look out, take Nuuanu Pali Hywy. Ride/paddle a canoe for a life time memory at Waikiki Beach. The absolutely best entertainment but expensive is the Polynesian Cultural Center at Laie, North shore. Also, Waimea Bay, Pipeline for surfer watching.
If you want to go around the island, catch THEBUS. You can get off anywhere, and get back on on the half-hour for another fare.

Rent a Car is best when you travel with kids AND planning to travel far.

The rental car web-site should give some great value if travel at off peak season.

To travel in peak season, go for some travel agents web-sites. They might have contracted rate from the rental car companies. Thus, rates are less than the web-site.

The bus will cost you $2 one way per person for adult and children $1 one way. You can get a transfer (free with one purchase per person). But it takes a long time to trave from one place to another. And the schedule is less frequent during off-school hours.

Day 1:
Off to the beaches - Ala Moana Magic Island (in Ala Moana beach park) is an idea place, especially for younger kid. It is an enclosed swimming lagoon, just out-skirt of Waikiki. you probably can spend some hours there. Pack some water _ food for a great pinic there too.

Opposite of Ala Moana Beach park is Ala Moana Shopping Center. You can go there before or after the beach.

If you like hiking, you can either go to Diamond Head (famous tourist area) for a paved hike. Fee required. Car driving need.

For a free city view, go to Punchbowl Cemetery. It is a National Cemetery with a open area for GREAT city view. It is also a tourist area with war display on the wall. Driving required. It is like 10-15 min drive from Waikiki.

Or go to Tantalus Montain in the night for city night view. Driving require.

Day 2: (if this day is a Wed or Sat or Sun)
Go to Aloha Stadium in the morning for swap meat. Lots of stuff to buy. Bargain skill required for a cheaper rate!

Opposite is the famous Pearl Harbor/Arizona Memorial. Get a ticket and go to the 20 min documentary film. Follow by a free boat ride to the memorial. Walk around the displays of history in the visitor center after the boat ride back.

If you have more than 2 hours of wait time for the documentary, go to Pearlridge shopping Center (a 5 min drive away) for lunch or a quick shopping.

If you have more than 4 hours of wait time for the documentary, go to the Battleship (ticket _ trolley ride next door). Be sure to join their guide tour, very informative!

There are a lots of things to do. I think this is not so hectic for younger kids and for a 2 day tour. If you like, do a search for my full recommended 7 days tour in YahooAnswer, for more option on where to go.

Your going to take 4 people on a minimum 5 hour flight (from the West Coast) _ only stay 2 days ?

I would seriously recommend 4-5 days minimum. If you go to Oahu, there lots of action from Waikiki - each hotel has it_s activities desk _ can book you on pretty much any trip you_d like to try (circle Island tour is a standard rite of passage). If you book in Waikiki - try to avoid hotels that back onto the canal - it does tend to stink a bit.

If you_ve got the money, the Turtle Bay Hilton is great if you don_t want to put up with all the noise _ traffic in Waikiki.

MAUI - my favourite island. I end up on Kaanapali beach. First time I went I got a deal at the Royal Lahaina hotel - it llooked like the cheapest place. BUT, with a group, the ResortQuest Kaanapali Shores Resort could (surprisingly) work out cheaper. THey do have condos with fully equipped kitchens. There is a supermarket just across the road _ that saved me as much as $50 a day on food - and getting breakfast in the codno is so much less stressful, than eating out. WHen I went, the hotel gave me coupons for the hotel resaurant and I also got a free day, booking via Expedia.

NOTE : there are direct flights to Maui from places like my home town - Phoenix, as well as the more congested West coast airports like SFO _ LAX.

Hawaii always looks expensive. But there_s lots of competition, so deals can be found. And finally, I stayed in Tahiti last New Year _ that was even more expensive than Hawaii !

You should be able to get some sort of a state ID card. Ask your parents to help you with this.

Green Bay has a strong Hmong population. It is like most towns in the Midwest.
The outskirts are all farmland and woods.

What is the best state to travel to in the US?|176247

My boyfriend and I are gonna ge taking a road trip by the end of the month. What do you think is the most exciting state to go to? I want to do a lot of sight seeing. BTW we live in NJ.

My favourite is Vermont. If you travel Vermont, you can do side trips into several other New England States, at the same time.

My favorite state in which to travel is California. California has everything you could want all in one state. CA has mountains, deserts, big cities, small towns, beaches, the Pacific Ocean, snow, rain, sun, sunbathing, skiing, surfing, and so much more.

Some _must see_ places in CA are:

San Francisco. The Bay area (and Monterey) are my favorites. When in San Francisco, visit the crookedest street in the world, Lombard St. (drive down it because it_s plenty of fun), ride a cable car, Chinatown (visit the Fortune Cookie Factory), Alcatraz, Fisherman_s Wharf, Muir Woods (north of S.F. for nature), Coit Tower (head to the observation deck for a beautiful view of the city), San Francisco Zoo, Cable Car Museum, and Golden Gate Park (de Young Museum, Buffalo Paddock, and S.F. Botanical Gardens).

Monterey: Visit the Monterey Bay Aquarium (it_s one of the best in the country), also take the scenic 17-mile drive in nearby Pebble Beach (it_s spectacular).

San Simeon: Visit Hearst Castle. They have plenty of tours to choose from and they_re all excellent. It_s a lovely place and the scenery is outstanding (the drive from Monterey on Highway 1 is like heaven on earth).

Los Angeles: Hollywood is a very interesting place. Visit Mann_s Chinese Theatre, Hollywood Bowl, Hollywood Wax Museum, Walk of Fame, and Sunset Strip. You_ll get plenty of excitement in Hollywood. Also visit Griffith Park in L.A. in the evening for some star watching (the stars in the sky) at the observatory. You_ll get a beautiful view of L.A.

Catalina Island: Great place for a day trip out of Long Beach. Plenty of watersports (snorkling, parasailing), plus you can see free-roaming buffalo on the _Inland Island Tour_ and go on a _Glass Bottom Boat Tour._ Catalina island is plenty of fun.

Yosemite National Park: This is my favorite national park in the country. Yosemite is very scenic any time of year (I_ve been there all four seasons and the winter was great). You can see El Capitan, Bridalveil Falls, Half Dome, and so much more. They have free shuttle buses in the park that will take you wherever you want to go. They also have plenty of tours offered within the park which are worth taking. You_ll see and learn a great deal on these tours. The wildlife viewing is also excellent there.

Palm Springs: Take the Aerial Tram to the top and see the San Jacinto Mountains. It_s much colder at the top, so dress warm. You_ll see snow at the top this time of year. Palm Springs also has plenty of golf, casinos, and excellent nightlife. You_ll also want to visit Joshua Tree National Park and Indian Canyons. They are both very scenic. Indian Canyons have gigantic palm tress you must see.

Have fun in CA!

I live in Pittsburgh, there_s a lot to see in our corner of the country. You can see Washington DC, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania_s Amish Country, Wonderful Pittsburgh, Niagara Falls, New York_s Finger Lakes, New York City and back to Jersey. Everything I mentioned is less than 4 hours from the thing mentioned before it.

A lot depends on how far you can go, how much you can spend, and the types of things that interest you. Some of my favorite places that I_ve visited: Dry Tortugas National Park (FL), Mammoth Caves (KY), Cass Scenic Railroad (WV), Gettysburg (PA), Golden Spike NHS (UT), Yellowstone _ Grand Teton NP (WY), Seattle, Washington DC,.......

My oldest son and I are going to South Dakota for a long weekend in April and I can_t wait, cause I_ve never been there before! Anyplace new is exciting!

its all subjective. i like montana. someone else may like florida. another may like michigan. it all depends on what you are interested in doing.
