Magic Kingdom is definitely the better park when it comes to food, attractions, character meet and greets and entertainment over Hollywood Studios. Hollywood Studios has become more a half day park, unless you are a major Star Wars fan and want to spend plenty of extra time doing galactic activities.

A Magic Kingdom itinerary is simply a must if your family only has one day at Disney World. The main reason being the Magic Kingdom Park is by far the most-visited theme park in the world.
Originally opened in 1995, Blizzard Beach is by far the most under-the-radar park in Disney World, which is understandable considering its focus as a water-specific park. And let's fact it: water parks aren't everyone's cup of tea.
Epcot is arguably the best Disney theme park for adults as far as attractions, dining, drinking, shopping, and shows go. The 11 culturally enriching pavilions of World Showcase are usually a top priority for adults, and the restaurants are some of the best in all of Disney World. Epcot also wins out on events.
That's not to say one is just for kids or just for adults. There is plenty of fun stuff for kids to do at Epcot! And adults can definitely enjoy Magic Kingdom too! But if you are looking for a more grown-up vibe, then you'll want to go to Epcot.
Epcot tops the list of best Disney parks for adults because of its large rides, frequent festivals and unique cultural experiences. Disney California Adventure hits high marks for big rides, and Disney's Hollywood Studios earns its spot thanks to must-do adventures from Star Wars.
I would say Hollywood studios and animal kingdom, but as others have said doing Epcot and Hollywood studios on the same day make sense because they are so close together. The only problem with starting at Hollywood and ending at Epcot is it would preclude you from attempting to ride Guardians of the Galaxy.
Magic KingdomWithout question, Magic Kingdom is Walt Disney World Resort's best theme park. It opened in 1972 as Disney World's original theme park. Today, Magic Kingdom remains Disney's crown jewel and the single most popular theme park in the world.
If You're with Young KidsSkip Epcot. Now, Epcot is a favorite for a lot of Disney guests because it's super nostalgic and has some very creative themes. However, it's definitely skip-able right now for a few reasons. First off, if you're traveling with kids, Epcot can be a challenge.
Here's What Makes Animal Kingdom Great for AdultsAnimal Kingdom is a great “chill” park. While it has some fantastic rides (Flight of Passage and Expedition Everest are two of the best rides at Disney World) the bulk of the enjoyment of the park comes in between the rides.
The fast pass version isn't as good as the regular version. Be sure to try both. So yes, it's entirely possible to visit four Disney parks in one day, even with kids in tow.
Most people advise focusing on just one park—usually the classic Disneyland. This isn't a bad idea as there's so much to see (especially now Star Wars land has opened), but we decided to squeeze them both in. We discovered that yes, it is possible to visit both Disneyland and California Adventure in one day.
NO. I think if you really want to relax and enjoy your visit to Disney World, plan for at least 3 or 4 days. Then you can kind of do 1-2 parks a day and add in time to visit the water parks, Disney Springs, and enjoy your resort. But that's not why you're here.
A trip at this time of year also has the added bonus of cooler temperatures — or, to superfans, Spirit Jersey weather. Disney World's least busy month, though, is almost always September.
EPCOT. EPCOT is Disney World's theme park at which you will do the most walking! For example, it is roughly 0.85 miles from the front entrance of EPCOT to the rear of the park.
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.
Some Guests feel that Disney's Animal Kingdom park is a half-day park. But you and I know that those naysayers are incorrect! With so much to do and see throughout the park, my family and I always plan to spend an entire day at Disney's Animal Kingdom. It also happens to be our favorite of the four Theme Parks.
Walt Disney World Epcot – Best for Ages 8 to 14It's a great theme park for intellectually curious kids (and adults) but not the best for little kids under the age of 8. Older kids will enjoy some of the major thrill rides (like Test Track and Mission: SPACE) and may really enjoy World Showcase.
Movie Magic or Amazing AnimalsAnimal Kingdom has animal-inspired shows, food, rides, and attractions. If your little ones will be thrilled seeing a live Gorilla or a giraffe on Kilimanjaro Safaris, this Park is a must-see. Hollywood Studios is all about tapping into the glamour and glitz of the movie industry.
You can absolutely purchase a single-day park ticket to visit both Disney's Hollywood Studios and EPCOT. You'll need to add the Park Hopper Option to your ticket in order to visit both parks in one day.
