One Day At Magic Kingdom: Full Itinerary



Cinderella Castle

Disney World is a vacation destination that keeps families quite busy! With 4 parks, 2 waterparks, and Disney Springs, most guests find that they need several days to fully enjoy their vacation and all Disney has to offer. Magic Kingdom, EPCOT, Hollywood Studios, and Animal Kingdom are the 4 theme parks that make up Disney World. Each of these parks deserves their own day dedicated to enjoying them and their attractions. Magic Kingdom is an intricate park with so much to see and do. If you have an upcoming trip planned and want to make the most of your day at Magic Kingdom then check out this full itinerary for a day.

Coffee and Breakfast Options

Starting your day off with some food is a great way to fuel up yourself and your family. Main Street Bakery is a full-service Starbucks that will serve all of your favorite specialty drinks alongside pastries and treats that you can’t find anywhere else. Joffrey’s Coffee is also delicious, and has several stands throughout the park. One of our favorite places to grab breakfast at Magic Kingdom is Friar’s Nook which serves a sausage, egg, and cheddar sandwich on a bagel as well as loaded potato barrels.

Explore Adventureland

People tend to gravitate towards the right when they enter Magic Kingdom. Because of this, we recommend going left toward Adventureland. Here you’ll be able to experience great rides like The Magic Carpets of Aladdin, Jungle Cruise, and Pirates of the Caribbean.

Explore Fantasyland

As you make your way through the park, be sure to dedicate a lot of time for Fantasyland. There is so much to see and do in this area of the park and it gives you that classic Disney magical feeling. Here you can ride Prince Charming Regal Carousel, The Seven Dwarfs Mine Train, Dumbo the Flying Elephant, “it’s a small world”, The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh, and so much more.

Explore Liberty Square and Frontierland

This area of the park is currently undergoing some refurbishments, but it is still full of fun things to see and do. Liberty Square is where you’ll find the iconic Haunted Mansion attraction, as well as Hall of Presidents. In Frontierland you can enjoy the newly updated Country Bear Jamboree, as well as Tiana’s Bayou Adventure and Big Thunder Mountain Railroad.

Don’t leave the park without exploring and soaking up Main Street U.S.A. Here you can enjoy the sights and sounds of the park, relax on the castle hub grass, shop, and listen to the Casey’s Corner pianist.
