Really enjoyed Magic Kingdom Seeing our 4 year old granddaughter's face see the castle for the first time & meeting princesses was incredible. Also seeing her sister (our other granddaughter), aged 10 enjoy the parade, the rides & meeting princesses was brilliant too, even though she'd been lucky enough to go 7 years ago. Together they both enjoyed rides, meeting princesses & lots more !!

Star wars land is epic. Slinky dog dash is worth the wait in line and the Tron ride was.....very short. We found that Lightning line passes were a waste of time for our party. The queues were not bad at all and if you tried to grab a Lightning lane pass, even well in advance like we did, the only ones on off were later on in the evening. Even though the parks were quite quiet 🤔🤔🤔🤔.. it didnt ruin our time here though...just wouldn't necessarily buy the Lightning lane passes again

Great park with great rides. Decided not to buy Lightning lane passes for this park and glad we didnt. Longest we queued was for flight of passage and that was 60 mins (and that was the second time on it that day) Wish disney would go back to the old fast pass system which was free and was alot less hassle

Guardians of the galaxy ride is amazing. Looks like they have had some investment since our last visit. Soarin was a nice touch for the USA 250 anniversary. Epcot still needs a few more great rides. But that is my own personal opinion
