Why we love it

A real highlight is Topolino’s Terrace – a stylish rooftop restaurant offering delightful character dining by day, and by night, breathtaking views where you can catch fireworks from up to three Disney parks. It’s the perfect blend of luxury, charm, and classic Disney magic!

Love this park. We visited during the flower festival and the topiaries are amazing. The theming throughout the park is excellent. Staff helpful and organised regarding long queues . Unexpected long waits for some older rides, but waits made easier by staff friendliness.

Deborah Rees reviewed Epcot 27 May, 2026
5 stars:

The park had reopened on the day I visited, so there were some teething problems. Staff in the food areas were very polite but slow to serve and a little disorganised which is very unusual. 2 rides not running, but this didn’t spoil our day. Very low attendance numbers, due to reopening day, but that worked in our favour as we didn’t have to wait at all. Park was clean and all sandy areas tidy. More shady areas would be beneficial but I understand that it isn’t always achievable.

5 stars:

Unexpected long lines for older rides, no express pass purchased as I believe the tickets are fairly priced without adding more to the budget. Disappointed that Disney continue to capitalise from the clients in this way.
