Last time I was here was in 1994 (14 years old) - back then I never felt the so called 'magic' and found it quite boring. Last year we tried it again just to see if my opnion changed, we stayed in this park for approximately four hours. Rides were very poor, pirates of the carribean is some peoples favourite ride. I have no idea why! You just sit in a slow moving boat, looking at robotic moving puppets moving back n forward / arms up n down. Looking at parades and general extra happy theming, didn't do it for me.

For families and young kids I would highly recommend it though, it's a great place to be. But if your not in dreamland and fancy something better then you cannot go wrong with Universal and Islands of Adventure.

Anyone that says anything different needs sectioning!! Magic Kingdom is the most magical and fun place imaginable. Everything about it is so well done, the rides are excellent, even when you have to queue there is so much to look at to keep you entertained. The park is immaculately clean and tidy, the cast members (staff) are so polite and helpful and all enter into the spirit of the venue, even at the very end of the day. Our 6 year old and us (we're 32) have never enjoyed anywhere so much. It really is the best!!!!!!!!!

Last time I was here was sixteen years ago and it hasnt really change much. The rides are pretty much the same as they were then. The star wars rides is over 20 years old as is the muppet 3d show which they actually say in the film its the new technology. Peter pan, its a small world, winnie the pooh and many other rides consist of sitting in a moving car around a track looking at plastic figures with robotic movements with a song plating in the background. We were there one night really late and done five rides in less than one hour as they are only 2-3 minutes each. My boys are 8 and 9 and they thought it was terrrible. Disney now charge $12 dollars for parking whichj they never did before and the food was only junk food and not even edible and it was very expensive.

The space mountain, thunder mountain and splash mountain are still going but there are better parks if you want these types of rides. The magic has gone I am afraid it is very fake and a big ripoff. Merchandise is extremely expensive, photos taken whilst on rides are now $24.95 for a printed photo.

I went to MK and had a great time. Tomorrowland is my favorite section in the park. I didn't get to go to the Hall Of Presidents because it was closed, though. You should get the Fastpass whenever possible. Have fun!

This is a beautiful, magical park, my favorite of the 4 parks. It is everything and more that I dreamed about as a child. That beng said, do your research before deciding upon coming to Disney in the summer. It will be very hot. It will be very crowded. There will be long lines. We are Florida residents, and I have a annual pass so we have free parking, and the rest of my family seasonal passes, and we stay away in Summer. We love the Haunted Mansion, Pirates of the Carribean, the thunder mountain roller coaster, and splash mountain. The Peter Pan Ride is great. If summer is your only option, pick the rides that most appeal to you, read up on the park ahead of time, and chart out what you want to see and the location, and either get there early or later afternoon. There are so many guide books out there, and web sites, that you can decide what you want to do, before you get there, and what to expect, which will make your visit to the Magic Kingdom much more pleasant.
