    We are trying to do all four parks in two days what parks would you recommend doing on the same day or about how long do it take to do each

    Hi there. Welcome to planDisney. 

    Oh boy! You have a lot of magic to experience in just two days, and you've come to the right place for advice. We are fellow Guests who visit often, and I'm happy to share my best tips with you.

    First, be sure you have a theme park ticket with the Park Hopper Option, and download the My Disney Experience app.

    I suggest starting your day at Animal Kingdom since it generally opens earlier than the other parks, which will help you maximize your time. Aim to spend about 3 to 4 hours here, focusing on the attractions at the top of your wish list. You'll definitely want to hop aboard Kilimanjaro Safaris to enjoy the animals and take plenty of time to explore all that Pandora — The World of Avatar has to offer. If you're a thrill-seeker, Expedition Everest is AMAZING. After Animal Kingdom, I recommend spending the rest of your day at Magic Kingdom. This iconic park is where you'll want to spend the most time. With classic rides like Haunted Mansion and Jungle Cruise, along with new attractions like TRON Lightcycle / Run and Tiana's Bayou Adventure, there's so much to experience. Plus, Magic Kingdom is the place to be at night, with the stunning fireworks show, Happily Ever After, and the new nighttime parade, Disney Starlight.

    For your second day, I recommend starting at EPCOT. Plan to spend about half the day there, enjoying attractions like Soarin' Around the World and the thrilling Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind. After your fun at EPCOT, make your way over to Hollywood Studios. Here, be sure to experience all that Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge has to offer, and take time to play in Toy Story Land. Disney Villains: Unfairly Ever After is a delightfully evil new show you'll want to check out, and don't forget to drop in for a visit at The Twilight Zone Tower of Terror! And you'll definitely want to be at Hollywood Studios in the evening to enjoy the mysteries and magic and visions fantastic of the nighttime show, Fantasmic! 

    I hope this helps you plan your epic two days in the parks! I have a few additional tips to maximize your time. I highly suggest purchasing Lightning Lane Multi Passes and Single Passes. Also, be sure to plan out your transportation before you arrive. I'll add the link HERE so you can look over Disney's complimentary transportation. If you prefer to drive your own car, I recommend driving to your second park. This will not only save you time but also ensure that your car is readily available at the end of the night at your second park. 

    If you have any other questions or need advice on how to maximize your Lightning Lanes or would like suggestions about where to eat while in the parks, please reach back out. We would be happy to sprinkle all the pixie-dusted advice we can to help you have the BEST DAYS EVER! 

    Happy planning, 
    Shonette
