    Hello, I purchased three one day hopper tickets to Disney world, wondering how do i know what is the base park where we begin our day? Or do we pick what park we would like to go to first?

    Welcome to planDisney, Antoinette! Your party will arrive at the Most Magical Place on Earth soon, so I hope you're packed and ready for some fun. It sounds like you plan to fit a lot of theme park experiences into your day, so let's talk about how park hopping will work.

    Guests who add the Park Hopper Option to a date-based ticket do not need to make theme park reservations. If you opted for a one-day/one-park ticket, your price would vary depending on your selected date and park. But since you added the hopper option and specified the day you're coming, you can start at any theme park you like. 

    If you're unsure that your ticket is date-based, call the Existing Tickets line to confirm. They can review your account information and let you know if your admission requires a theme park reservation.

    Remember, you can come and go from all four theme parks as often as time (and your legs!) will allow. You'll only pay for parking at the first park, so hang on to your receipt. You can also use complimentary transportation to get from park to park seamlessly. For example, you can take the Disney Skyliner between Disney's Hollywood Studios and EPCOT. You can also hop aboard the monorail to go from Magic Kingdom Park to EPCOT, and there are park-to-park buses. You have many options to make hopping a breeze!

    My personal pick would be to begin the day at Magic Kingdom Park. There's nothing like seeing Cinderella Castle glimmering in the morning sunshine. You might also hit Disney's Animal Kingdom Theme Park earlier in the day since this park typically closes around sunset. Swing by Disney's Hollywood Studios for some bounty hunting in Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge, and end your night sampling delicacies from around the world at the EPCOT International Food & Wine Festival. That sounds like a practically perfect day to me!

    Antoinette, I'm wishing on a star that you'll have the most magical visit ever! Please stop by planDisney anytime.

    Magic awaits,
    Elaine
