Walt Disney World can be a fun thing to look forward to, but the crowds turn some people off, and it’s understood, since so many people go there year, after year.  I’m going to give you a few tips that you can use in order to avoid those big crowds.

Always get there early - The earlier you wake up, the better it is for you.  Since so many people are there for vacation, you’re going to see that many of them lounge around, and stroll in around noon.  This is when you can really take advantage.  If you get there right when the gates open, you’ll find that there’s going to be next to no waits.  Once the park gets busy again, you’ll want to either some lunch, or do some sightseeing.  Once the evening rolls around, you’ll find that the park will die down again.

Take advantage of the perks – I’ve been to Disney World a few times, and did you know that they have a program where you can stay after hours?  It’s true!  All you need to do is stay at the Disney Resort, and they will offer you a program called “Extra Magic Hours”.  You can get in one hour before the park opens, as well as stay after.  This is great for beating those big crowds as well.

Just pick a slow time - Like anywhere in life, you’re going to find that some places are slow.  For instance, Arizona is going to be slow in summer, and Disney also has it’s slow times as well.  A great time to visit Disney would be anytime after the kids start school, or during the fall, or early winter time.

Disney crowds will always be there, but if you follow a few of these tips, you can avoid them in a way.  If you go during the peak times, there’s going to be no magic to get around them.  Try a few of these ideas, and see if they can work out for you.
