50 Secrets and Tips For Disney World’s EPCOT 

Co-sign this!

Yes it is I love it

Animal kingdom would like to know your location

I like Hollywood Studios best.

It's #2 for me, AK is my #1. MK comes in third.

We played the kim possible game!

What a boring park, not worth the money you spend to go there.

@@DawnEdwards6267I honestly like epcot much more than animal kingdom and magic kingdom I can’t really decide between Hollywood and epcot but with rocken roller coaster being closed at the moment epcots my favorite park.

Yeah

Yes! I loved that!

Wish we had a weekday to go

Disagree with the crocs. Those were one of the best shoes to take!

On the topic of shoes, don’t wear brand-new ones. Wear comfortable, supportive shoes that your feet are used to and aren’t getting worn out. And good socks - hiking socks are good, and bring an extra pair. You might want to change mid-day. Also, get into a daily walking routine before you leave home. You’ll walk around 25,000 to 30,000 steps a day, so acclimate your legs and feet ahead of time.

Get a couple of insoles too, they help

yknow i wish i could wear comfortable shoes but i get really self conscious. i love to dress up and wear extravagant clothing and if i dont look like that at all times, even on vacation, i feel horribly under dressed. i always hate looking like a bum/tourist lol. there have been times where ive stomped around disney world in 6 inch platform boots. did it hurt? yes. was it a dumb decision? yes. did i feel like the hottest person in the park though? yep and thats worth it.

Ugh

Well if it's supposed to come out this year, it would sure be disappointing if they meant December...

Its supposed to open this fall so I hope you'll be able to see it!

It depends on what you want to see. The fact is, there is no dining site that gives you a very good place to see the Fireworks show. The best place to be for that show is at the end of the FRONT of the Park - across the water from the American Adventure.These areas fill in rapidly and early but there are places for Handicapped guests if you qualify. Then dining depends on what you want to eat although The Canadian Pavilion Steak House is really really good stuff - though expensive. Need more information - WHen are you going - and how are you going there? (By car or air). Will you have a rental car or your own or not? Where are you planning to stay as well. You CAN put together a less expensive option by staying in the Dolphin or Swan and they are sort of within walking distance to Epcot if you are mobile enough. YOu could also stay at one of the "good neighbor" hotels at Lake Buena Vista to save even more - and from there they are close to outside Food options that are much less expensive than Disney as well as offering Buses to Disney Attractions. Generally I plan to eat only a couple special meals at Disney Restaurants during a trip and eat the rest at less expensive venues either at Disney Springs - in the Hotels themselves - or off Property. Believe me you will be more than Satisfied with the Dolphin or Swan as well - they are really a good value.

@@Thommadura thank you so much for your help. We are planning on going the 23 to magic kingdom and 29 to Epcot. We only have one day and a crusie is in between them. Flying in from CA land of the crazy’s but we love Disney. Don’t know if I need Genie or Genie plus there either. Want to see as much as we can of course. So when she AJ mentioned places to watch the show thru a paid dinning show she said there were from 36-95 so I was wondering there there is a good middle ground to watch the show and save time not waiting for the good spots. We are both short so it doesn’t take much to take away our view. I also have no ide if any festivales are going on. Kinda of a last minute trip my wife wanted to do but we have been traveling so much we are trying to watch what we spend on this one. I will say not knowing the park is exciting but also frustrating since we are clueless. Ever go to Disney I got your back 😀

@@CUTravel1st Right Now I do not know if Disney Plus is worthwhile in Epcot center because of the plethora of closures and construction but If you have only one day - and are good at using smartphones (Make sure you have one no matter what) - then at least you will have a chance to see the best things. Do not go to the Spaceship earth first since that line comes way down later in the afternoon. I assume you are staying at Disney so outside options are off the table. The best restaurant to see the fireworks is the Rose and Crown but it is a separate terrace only for diners but not usually from your Table.

As long as you have an EPCOT reservation you can use the back entrance! My husband and I park hopped from Animal Kingdom to EPCOT, but we took the bus to Boardwalk because it was empty, then walked over to EPCOT's back entrance. That way we were able to go immediately to a pavilion for dinner and then fireworks viewing.

Yeah, it's really not cheating though. You can also use it to park hop from Hollywood Studios to Epcot and from Epcot to Hollywood Studios. But in terms of resturants, I do recommend Trattoria al Forno for breakfast. The Boardwalk is also pretty fun to just walk around or people watch.

@@Spicypotatos ok thanks I was hoping to check out the boardwalk too anyway
