    We have a reservation for the keys to the kingdom tour on 3/9/24 at 8AM. Magic Kingdom is open 9am that day with 8:30 early entry. We will be staying off property. How early does the parking lot open? When should we arrive to not miss the tour?

    Hi Mackenzie!

    The Keys to the Kingdom Tour is such an amazing experience. Getting to see Magic Kingdom behind the scenes and see the famous "Utilidor" tunnels is completely magical! You will also take home so many tidbits of information you can use to impress your family and friends on your next visit. Be sure to bring an appetite and great walking shoes because the lunch is delicious and you will do a lot of walking!

    The Ticket and Transportation Center parking lot will open 60 minutes before Early Theme Park Entry at Magic Kingdom. As you mentioned, for the day you are arriving, early entry will be at 8:30 so you should plan to arrive at the parking lot right at 7:30. This will give you 30 minutes to get on the monorail and travel directly to the gates of Magic Kindom where you will see a check-in for early reservations or tours. They will allow you to go ahead and enter for your tour. Don't forget to get the coveted picture in front of Cinderella Castle before anyone else is in the theme parks!

    I recommend making some dinner reservations for that evening. After we finished the tour, I really enjoyed taking it easy and having a relaxing evening at Magic Kingdom. My favorite restaurant is Jungle Navigation Co. LTD Skipper Canteen. The Mess Hall Fried Rice and Jungle Greens Salad is my go-to meal.

    Happy Planning
