Welcome to planDisney, Mollie! Thanks for reaching out to us with your question...now let's get
hoppin' and answer it!
Prices for theme park tickets to the
Walt Disney World Resort fluctuate. As such, to discover how much a theme park ticket with the Park Hopper Option would be, simply
navigate to the ticketing page, click the blue "Continue" button next to "Theme Park Ticket," click 1 underneath "Select the Number of Days," and use the calendar to select the date you're looking to visit. Next, scroll down and click "Park Hopper Option." Then, select how many tickets you'd like and you'll see your subtotal at the bottom of the page. You can click the blue "Continue" button and follow the prompts to purchase your ticket (if you're ready).
With the
Park Hopper Option, you can start your day at one theme park and then hop on over to another later on in the day. You can technically hop over to all three of the theme parks if you'd like! I have a couple of hot tips for you to take into consideration when determining when and how you should park hop!
- It is easiest to hop between Disney's Hollywood Studios and EPCOT because of the Disney Skyliner and between EPCOT and Magic Kingdom Park because of the Walt Disney World Monorail.
- If you're looking to get the most value with your ticket and spend the most time at the parks, I would recommend starting at Disney's Animal Kingdom Theme Park because it typically opens and closes the earliest. I recommend ending your night at Magic Kingdom Park, as it is the park that usually closes the latest. Of course, you'll want to check the calendar or the My Disney Experience mobile app to confirm this!
- If you're driving and parking at the theme parks, you currently only have to pay for parking at one park for the day. It will then transfer to the other three for the rest of that day. Just hold onto that receipt!
- If you're hopping between parks that aren't connected by the Disney Skyliner or the Walt Disney World Monorail, there will be buses available to you. Just make sure to allot some extra time for hopping as the buses tend to be not as quick as the other modes of transportation. But keep in mind that you should always account for some extra travel time, even if you are using a typically quicker mode of transportation.
Mollie, I hope you have a wonderful time hopping around the resort. If you have any other questions,
I'm happy to answer them!
Our fate lives within us; you only have to be brave enough to see it,
