Do I need 2 days at Magic Kingdom?

Magic Kingdom has the most attractions of any park. You can see and do a lot in 1 day, but for an even more relaxed experience, 2 days will be better. This is also a great park for Genie+, and if it is in your budget, we definitely recommend you purchase it.

There's too much in the park to easily do in a single day. It's probably more of a one-and-a-half or two-day park. That said, this is a one day itinerary post, and there are a few approaches you can take to have one very good nearly perfect day at Magic Kingdom.

You can absolutely do this, but you won't get to go on most of the good rides. Animal kingdom is only a half day park anyway, so start there and then do Magic Kingdom after. For the next day I'd start early in HS and then take the sky ride thing over to EPCOT.

When we would go to Disney World for Nationals, we'd only have about 6-8 hours free to go to the parks, so I have been groomed to enjoy the fast pace of going to all four parks in one day. Nowadays, I've slowed down and visit the 4 parks in 2 days lol. There is no right or wrong way to do Disney.

Go Early If you want to avoid long lines there's no simpler way than to wake up early and get to the park before it opens. Whether you have access to early entry or not, being at the park entrance before it opens will save you lots of time. Usually, you can get in 2-3 rides during the first hour of park operation.
