    Hello, if I have a park hopper ticket, and I reserved Hollywood Studios, can I actually start my day at Animal Kingdom first or do I have to start my day at the park I reserved?

    Hi there, Joshua, and welcome to planDisney! It's so exciting that you're here with this great question about your upcoming Walt Disney World Resort vacation! You'll be arriving in just a few short days - are your suitcases packed yet?

    Joshua, there are a few different types of admission for Walt Disney World Resort - you can check them out here and ensure yours requires a reservation.. Currently, a typical date-based ticket with the park hopper option does not require a theme park reservation. If you have an annual pass or other type of admission that requires a reservation, you'll need to tap in at the park where your reservation is before you can park hop. Read more about park reservations for Annual Passholders on this helpful website. You can always check the availability of reservations online to determine which reservations would be best for you to make.

    I love starting my day at Disney's Animal Kingdom Theme Park! I head straight over to Expedition Everest, then grab a snack, and then hop in the queue for Kilimanjaro Safaris. I've found that the animals seem most active in the morning, so a morning safari is always on my to-do list.

    Joshua, I hope this is helpful to you as you plan your vacation at the Most Magical Place on Earth! Please stop by planDisney with any other questions you have!

    See ya real soon!
