Hi there, Jeanette!
Thanks for visiting planDisney, and thanks for your question about theme parks, attractions, and pricing. Planning for a Walt Disney World Resort vacation can be so much fun, especially as you begin to imagine playing in the theme parks and immersing yourself in adventure, exploration, thrills, fantasy, dining delights, and all the magic that awaits you. The great news is that all of the helpful information you need to personalize your own plan for a Walt Disney World Resort vacation is easily available online.
Let's start with the theme parks and attractions, as that's what you asked about first. Each of the theme parks provides its guide map online, and these are easy-to-view, easy-to-print versions of the same pocket-sized printed maps that most Guests pick up when they enter the theme park. Simply follow these links to grab your own version of the theme park guide maps:
Magic Kingdom Guide Map,
EPCOT Guide Map,
Disney's Hollywood Studios Guide Map, and
Disney's Animal Kingdom Guide Map. These guide maps will showcase the attractions, dining, and entertainment featured in the theme parks, and they will also highlight useful information you'll want to know to make the most of your magical days. Oh, and they're simply so fun to look at!
You also asked theme park ticket pricing. The very helpful
Tickets & Visits Guide will give you details on purchasing theme park tickets and ticket options. There are a few quick tips I can share around theme park tickets. First, it's helpful to know that Walt Disney World Resort uses a date-based ticketing system, which means that theme park admission tickets can vary in price depending on the day and month you want to visit. The Tickets & Visits Guide will display a calendar for you to easily see various ticket prices so you can personalize your planning.
It's also helpful and important to know that you'll need to make a theme park reservation in addition to purchasing your theme park admission ticket. You can visit the
Theme Park Reservation Availability calendar to see which theme parks have reservations available for the days you want to visit. You can then use the
Disney Park Pass system to make your theme park reservations.
You might also enjoy watching
planning videos hosted by my fellow planDisney Panelists. Watching the videos is a fun way to get tips and ideas to make the most of your Walt Disney World Resort vacation.
