Take a Virtual Tour of Magic Kingdom With a Disney Imagineer and Uncover the Theme Park's Design Secrets

Join a Disney Imagineer for a magical tour of this iconic theme park.

Elizabeth Rhodes is a special projects editor at Travel + Leisure , covering everything from luxury hotels to theme parks to must-pack travel products. Originally from South Carolina, Elizabeth moved to New York City from London, where she started her career as a travel blogger and writer.

In the latest video of our Walk With Travel + Leisure series , you can tour Disney World's Magic Kingdom with an Imagineer and uncover all the design secrets and details you might have missed during your last visit.

Join Gary Landrum from Walt Disney Imagineering as he explores this iconic park's theme — magic made real — in its immersive lands, beloved attractions, and unique restaurants. The tour starts in Town Square with a history lesson on the Disney brothers (Walt and Roy) and their inspiration for the theme parks, before heading down Main Street, U.S.A. toward Cinderella Castle . The next stop is the "Partners" statue, where Landrum offers two statements that Disney legend Blaine Gibson imagined Walt saying to Mickey in the moment captured in the structure: "Look at all that we've accomplished" and "Look at all the happy people."

Next up on the tour is Tomorrowland, which is dedicated to our shared aspirations for the future, according to Landrum. He stops at the Carousel of Progress and Space Mountain, before heading into Fantasyland. Landrum shares the intricate design secrets of the Beauty and the Beast -themed Be Our Guest Restaurant. Even if you've visited the magical eatery in the past, you're guaranteed to learn something new about this restaurant's story. Then, it's off to Liberty Square and Adventureland. Did you know that Adventureland is divided into four realms? British colonial Africa, a desert oasis, Polynesia, and the southern isles are all represented in the land's attractions and theming.

The last stop is Cinderella's Castle for a tour of the exclusive Cinderella Castle Suite and all of its magical touches. From the stained-glass windows and mosaics to the antique furniture and bathroom sink, you won't believe all the elaborate details found in this one-of-a-kind room.

Share All sharing options for: A virtual visit to the Magic Kingdom at Disney World

Walt Disney World’s doors are closed until July, but if you’re feeling a little squicky about venturing to the Magic Kingdom so soon, there’s good news: If a Disney attraction exists (or existed in the time of YouTube), then chances are a high-definition video ride-through, walk-through, or POV of the attraction exists, ready to be experienced from home.

Disney parks have a lax policy when it comes to bringing cameras on rides to film the experience. As long as filming doesn’t pose a safety hazard (which it would on Hollywood Studios’ Rock ‘N Roller coaster, which goes upside down) or involve using flash on dark rides like Haunted Mansion, cast members permit visitors to use recording devices on most rides. While Disney specifically prohibits selfie sticks at the parks, GoPros, iPhones, and DSLR cameras are all allowed. (Which explains how one mad genius covertly directed an entire black-and-white thriller inside the parks.)

Ride-through and walk-through videos are a big part of theme park culture, showcasing many attractions and interactive areas of the park. The videos are so common that we were able to build an entire virtual ride through and walkthrough of the iconic landmarks at California’s Disneyland . The next logical step was Florida’s Disney World.

Like Walt himself, we never stop dreaming and building. So behold, a virtual exploration of the Magic Kingdom — the bigger, evolved version of Disneyland — broken down by land order. Yes, there is an order in which to “do” Magic Kingdom. Sorry, Dole Whip is not included (but here’s the official Dole DIY recipe if you’d like to complete the Walt Disney World experience).

Main Street U.S.A

Main street.

In Magic Kingdom, the Main Street area — designed to evoke Walt Disney’s hometown of Marceline, Missouri — is less about the attractions and more about the feel. It’s a quintessential part of the Magic Kingdom experience.

Disney Railroad

The railroad technically goes around the whole park, but it starts in Main Street so it goes here. Walt loved trains!

Adventureland

Jungle cruise.

The Emily Blunt Dwayne Johnson movie version of the iconic ride got pushed to 2021, but you can experience the full Disney World ride — bad jokes and puns included — through the magic of YouTube. The Florida version of this ride features carefully chosen plants designed to thrive in central Florida’s humid summers and surprisingly cool winters.

The Magic Carpets of Aladdin

The Aladdin-themed ride is basically the Dumbo elephant fixture of Fantasyland, but with magic carpets instead. In Magic Kingdom, this space is used for Aladdin character meet-and-greets.

Pirates of the Caribbean

The facade of this version of Pirates of the Caribbean is inspired by Castillo de San Felipe del Morro in the Old San Juan in Puerto Rico. The ride existed before the movie series was even a thing, though recent refurbishments have added some uncanny Jack Sparrow animatronics and rethinking of a scene where women were being auctioned off.

Swiss Family Treehouse

It’s not a ride, but it is a dope treehouse. Take a breather in the middle of your Disney day to explore some trees.

Enchanted Tiki Room

Talking birds, catchy songs — what more could you want? One of the immersive show experiences at Walt Disney World, the Enchanted Tiki room is full of parrots serenading guests.

Frontierland

Big thunder mountain.

The runaway railroad ride is a staple of Frontierland across Disney parks worldwide. With sharp twists and turns, it’s one of the more thrilling rides at Disney Word. The Florida version is slightly bigger than the California one.

Country Bear Jamboree

Do you remember the Country Bears movie? Well, it exists, and so does this video of the Disney World show.

Frontierland Shootin’ Arcade

Check out some rootin’, tootin’, shootin’ action.

Splash Mountain

The benefits to enjoying Splash Mountain in the comfort of your home: no risk of ruining your custom-made Disney vacation T-shirt with Splash Mountain water! Because, of course you’ll be wearing your Disney vacation T-shirt whilst embarking on this virtual adventure.

Tom Sawyer Island

Like its Disneyland equivalent, the island is Tom Sawyer-themed. The kids still love Tom Sawyer, right?

Liberty Square

The hall of presidents.

Come for the American history lessons, stay for the life-like wax figurines. Here’s the pre-2016 version , by the way, for no particular reason.

Haunted Mansion

Happy haunts await you! Each Haunted Mansion across Disney parks is themed to the area. In this case, the mansion evokes the Gothic Revival architecture of the mid-1700s, perfectly fitting in with the Revolutionary War-themed Liberty Square.

Liberty Square Riverboat

It wouldn’t be a Disney park without a riverboat. Unlike the Disneyland version, the Magic Kingdom isn’t tied to American author Mark Twain, but instead a more generic riverboat experience.

Fantasyland

The barnstormer.

A mild roller coaster tailored for kids, the Barnstormer got a revamp in 2011 after the Toontown area of Magic Kingdom closed down and turned into an expanded area of Fantasyland. Instead of being themed to take place at Goofy’s farm, it now fits more in line with the circus theme of the area (full name: The Great Goofini’s Barnstormer).

Casey Jr. Splash N’ Soak Station

Brush off your portable misting fan in order to fully recreate this experience.

Cinderella’s Castle

Cinderella’s Castle is over 100 feet taller than the Sleeping Beauty Castle in Disneyland Anaheim. The castle is an iconic symbol of not just the Magic Kingdom, but Disney parks worldwide. Walking through the Cinderella Castle leads you right to Fantasyland.

Dumbo the Flying Elephant

One of the hallmarks of every Disney World vacation commercial, the Dumbo ride takes (virtual) visitors to the skies.

Enchanted Tales with Belle

Added to the 2011 expansion of Fantasyland, this interactive experience is part show, part house tour. Walk through Belle’s cottage and recreate the events of the movie with Belle and her friends. The line is always long, but the attraction is really cute, and now you can skip the line and view it via video! Unfortunately, this means no audience participation, but we must all make sacrifices.

It’s A Small World

Will this song get stuck in your head after watching this video? Probably! But it’s a wholesome song, so really, it could be a lot worse.

Mad Tea Party

Take a spin on the teacups! The Mad Tea Party and the Dumbo ride are the quintessential Fantasyland attractions, and they both involve spinning. What does it mean?

The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh

While the ride itself has remained relatively unchanged since its opening in 1999 (where it replaced Mr. Toad’s Wild Ride), the waiting area got retooled during the 2011 expansion to have a play area for restless little children.

Mickey’s PhilharMagic

The 4D show explores some iconic moments in Disney music, with Donald Duck commandeering a magical orchestra.

Peter Pan’s Flight

To this day, Peter Pan’s Flight is one of the most popular attractions in the Magic Kingdom, a testament to the power of good Imagineering, the legacy of J.M. Barrie’s timeless tale, and the fact that edgy tweens entering their Hot Topic phase are really into it.

Prince Charming Regal Carrousel

Every Fantasyland has a carousel. This one just happens to be themed to Prince Charming and Cinderella. There is an unverified rumor that one of the horses, specifically one with a golden bow, is “Cinderella’s horse.” The ride was originally called Cinderella’s Carousel, but was re-themed to the less exciting Charming and given a backstory , because why not.

Seven Dwarfs Mine Train

One of the new attractions to open up in the Fantasyland refurbishment (and also the one ride in Fantasyland I have yet to ride on because the line is always three-hours long), the Seven Dwarfs Mine Train debuted in the second phase of 2014. It’s a fast-paced ride, similar to both Splash Mountain and Big Thunder Mountain in how its path winds both inside and outside. The ride reuses some animatronics from the now-defunct Snow White’s Scary Adventure.

Under the Sea: Journey of the Little Mermaid

A dark ride that takes guests through Ariel’s adventure, Under the Sea opened up in 2012 following a similar ride’s debut in California Adventure. While the California one’s exterior is stylized like an aquarium (which is, uh, kinda weird but okay), the Magic Kingdom version fits in with the rest of Fantasyland and is stylized like Eric’s castle.

Tomorrowland

Astro orbiter.

If the Magic Carpets of Aladdin is Adventureland’s version of the Dumbo ride, then the Astro Orbiter is Tomorrowland’s. Soar high above the retro-futuristic land in a wee little rocket.

Buzz Lightyear’s Space Ranger Spin

Unfortunately, a YouTube ride through can’t capture the sheer satisfaction of blasting moving targets, but the video does capture the neon arcade-style decor pretty well. Called “Astro Blasters” in Disneyland, this version of the attraction features less dialogue than its California counterpart.

Carousel of Progress

Naysayers may say that the Carousel of Progress is a boring 20-minute show, but they’re really missing out on a few big things. One, Daddy Progress , the fan name for the father figure in the show. Two, a nice, quiet dark space to sit amidst the Florida heat and rest your Disney trekking feet for 25 minutes. And three, a delightful experience taking guests through four distinct eras of technological progress, full of iconic lines (“Whew, boy, hottest Fourth of July we’ve had in years!”) and an incredibly catchy song. We stan the Carousel of Progress in this house.

Monsters, Inc. Laugh Floor

More of a show than a ride, the Monsters, Inc. Laugh Floor is a unique experience each time you visit, since Mike and the other monsters call out different audience members.

Space Mountain

Space Mountain, a roller coaster which hurdles guests almost entirely in the dark, doesn’t seem like it’d make for a fun ride-through video (since it, you know, takes place in the darkness of space), but you can’t have the full Tomorrowland experience without a ride on Space Mountain.

Stitch’s Great Escape!

Ever wonder how Stitch escaped after being taken into custody in the beginning of the movie? Be part of his adventure! Unfortunately, the video doesn’t capture the 4D effects, but given that one of the effects was a gross belch smell, maybe some attractions are better in video form.

Tomorrowland Speedway

Race some cars at Magic Kingdom’s race track. Lots of other Disney parks have a similar attraction under different names, but it’s all about going fast.

Tomorrowland Transit Authority PeopleMover

It’s just a track, one might say. But do not underestimate the sure love Disney fans have for the People Mover, which takes guests behind-the-scenes in certain Tomorrowland attractions. One of the staples of the park, the Tomorrowland Transit Authority PeopleMover has been through a few name changes — the most recent one being the readdition of “PeopleMover” to the Tomorrowland Transit Authority in 2010.

Inside Out 2 ruins one of Inside Out’s best gags — and it’s no big deal

Inside out 2 revives the old pixar magic, the first donald duck short in 60 years shouldn’t be the last.

Virtual Visit to Walt Disney World’s Magic Kingdom

In need of a little Disney magic? If you can’t get to the Most Magical Place on Earth, you can visit Walt Disney World virtually through YouTube ride and attraction videos.

We’ve rounded up a great video for each and every ride, attraction, and show that you can currently find at the Magic Kingdom. It’s the next best thing to being there!

Virtual Walt Disney World Series

Our virtual Walt Disney World series is just a fun way to explore and enjoy the parks when you can’t be there. Because the majority of these videos are from the guest’s point of view (POV), they can be even more fun viewed through VR headsets for your phone , or by projecting it on a wall or viewing on a big screen tv.

You can even get creative and make ride vehicles to sit in and add your own special effects. Have fun with it!!

And because it’s all virtual, you can hop from park to park as much as you want. Here are the links to the other parks:

• Virtual Epcot
• Virtual Disney’s Hollywood Studios
• Virtual Disney’s Animal Kingdom

Virtual Magic Kingdom

Walt Disney World’s Magic Kingdom is such a fun place to visit. The first of the four Disney theme parks to be built in Florida, it also has the most to see and do. It’s almost impossible to see it all in one day.

Express Monorail to the Magic Kingdom

“Por favor mantengense alejado de las puertas!” Please stand clear of the doors and enjoy your express monorail from the Transportation and Ticket Center to the Magic Kingdom. Stay on, and you’ll continue your journey all the way around the Seven Seas Lagoon and back to where you started.

Take the Ferry Across Seven Seas Lagoon

On a beautiful day, the more relaxing way to get to the Magic Kingdom is the Ferry Boat. You can choose to sit inside in the shade or stand outside on deck to feel the breeze as you cross the waters to the shores of the Magic Kingdom.

Let the Magic Begin

The “welcome show” for the Magic Kingdom used to be held outside the entrance. But a few years ago they relocated it to the castle stage. So once you arrive, you can enter the park and look around on Main Street, U.S.A. as you make your way to the Cinderella Castle stage to see the show.

Once the show is over, the other lands of the park will open and everyone can make their way (in an orderly fashion) to their first attraction!

Full Walk Around the Magic Kingdom

This is a well-shot, smooth walk around the entire Magic Kingdom. You can sit back and enjoy it all at once, or stop wherever you like and scroll ahead the next time to pick up where you left off.

Walt Disney World Railroad Full Loop

All aboard! The Walt Disney World Railroad has been closed for a while due to construction on the new Tron attraction. But thanks to this ride video, you can ride it any time you want! This version starts and ends at the Main Street train station.

Main Street USA

The “heart of America”, Main Street U.S.A. is such a great place to take your time and enjoy all the little details. As a Cast Member on my Keys to the Kingdom tour put it, Main Street, U.S.A. is like the opening credits to the show you are about to see in the rest of the park.

Take a Ride on Main Street Vehicles

The main street vehicles do not run all day long. So if you see one, be sure to catch a ride as it is a unique experience!

Meet the Citizens of Main Street, U.S.A.

Be sure to say hello to the citizens of Main Street, U.S.A. when you see them!

The Dapper Dans Barbershop Quartet

The Dapper Dans are a Magic Kingdom delight! They’ve been known to drop in and serenade guests getting haircuts at the Harmony Barbershop. But they also love to entertain the crowds right along Main Street, U.S.A.!

The Main Street Trolley Show

There’s nothing like a little singin’ and dancin’ to get you going in the morning. And the Main Street Trolley Show might just be pulling up to supply that for you as you walk up Main Street, U.S.A.! So be sure to stop and enjoy it!

The Casey’s Corner Pianist

Casey’s Corner is my favorite lunch spot in the Magic Kingdom. Aside from the baseball theming and great hot dogs, you can grab a seat with a great view of Cinderella Castle and listen to the soundtrack or, if you’re lucky, enjoy a live piano performance!

Cinderella Castle Hub

The castle hub is the center of the park. From here you can choose to go to any of the other themed lands. But it’s also a great place to hang out and enjoy the scenery. And it’s an especially good spot to watch the Festival of Fantasy parade.

Mickey’s Royal Friendship Faire

Festival of fantasy parade.

The Festival of Fantasy Parade is a gorgeous, colorful parade with lots of huge floats and many of your favorite characters. The highlight is the fire-breathing dragon version of Maleficent. And while you can see the parade in Frontierland, Liberty Square, or on Main Street, U.S.A., nothing beats this view with Cinderella Castle in the background.

The Main Street Philharmonic

What do you get when you take a marching band and give them a Disney playlist? you get the Main Street Philharmonic!! Enjoy!

Move It! Shake It! MousekeDance It! Street Party

It’s like a parade that you get to be a part of! Join Mickey, Minnie, Donald, Daisy, Goofy and Clarabelle as they make their way to Cinderella Castle for a dance party!

Tomorrowland

Tomorrowland was my favorite land as a kid. Something about the future really gets the imagination going thinking about all that is possible. Thrill seekers can enjoy Astro Orbiter and Space Mountain. And the whole family will enjoy Buzz Lightyear’s Space Ranger Spin.

Astro Orbiter

The Astro Orbiter offers some of the best views of any attraction in the Magic Kingdom. But the ride moves fast and is over before you know it, so make sure to keep your eyes open!

We found two options for you. The first is a standard view. The second is a 360-degree view where you can control which way you are looking.

Here’s the other Astro Orbiter video with a 360-degree view:

Buzz Lightyear’s Space Ranger Spin

Do you have what it takes to stop the evil Emporer Zurg from completing his galactic conquest? Join Buzz Lightyear and his space rangers in the ultimate battle!

Monster’s Inc. Laugh Floor

Enjoy this hilarious comedy show where the guests are sometimes part of the action.

Space Mountain

Zoom through the darkness of space aboard your rocket ship. While it’s extremely dark inside Space Mountain, this video turned out pretty good.

Tomorrowland Speedway

As a kid, I loved getting to drive my own race car around the Tomorrowland Speedway. This video puts you back in the driver’s seat, and if you want to keep watching it, it will do another lap in different lane.

Tomorrowland Transit Authority PeopleMover

“Paging Mr. Morrow… Mr. Tom Morrow.” Take a relaxing ride around Tomorrowland on the Tomorrowland Transit Authority Peoplemover.

Walt Disney’s Carousel of Progress

Walt Disney’s Carousel of Progress is one of those classic Disney attractions that people of all ages can enjoy.

Fantasyland

If you have little kids, you might find yourself heading straight for Fantasyland and spending a lot of time here. So many favorites and great new attractions since the expansion. Seven Dwarfs Mine Train is the most sought-after FastPass+ in the park, but you can ride it over and over here with no wait!

The Barnstormer

The perfect first roller coaster for little kids, the Barnstormer is a fun ride.

Casey Jr. Splash ‘N’ Soak Station

While not a ride, the Casey Jr. Splash ‘N’ Soak Station is a great place to cool off on a hot Florida day at the Magic Kingdom. And since we’re walking through this virtually, we don’t have to worry about our clothes getting wet!

Dumbo the Flying Elephant

Take a ride in your very own flying elephant! Since relocating Dumbo the Flying Elephant to its new home in the Storybook Circus area, the wait times have been drastically reduced. And here, you don’t have to wait at all!

Enchanted Tales With Belle

Be part of the “tale as old as time” when you visit Belle in Fantasyland. Enter her house and be magically transported to the Beast’s castle!

it’s a small world

Take a ride on the happiest cruise that ever sailed on “it’s a small world”.

Mad Tea Party

The family always makes me promise that we won’t spin the teacup too fast. But that goes right out the window as soon as we get going on the Mad Tea Party!

The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh

A family favorite, the Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh is a great ride for everyone. I love how the vehicle’s motion changes from scene to scene.

Mickey’s Philharmagic

Follow Donald on a magical journey as he borrows Mickey’s sorcerer hat and finds himself part of several classic Disney animation scenes. Mickey’s Philharmagic is a 3D film, which is why it’s a little blurry in this video.

Peter Pan’s Flight

Get pixie-dusted and fly above London and go off to Neverland with Peter, Wendy, Michael and John to battle the sinister Captain Hook. You can scroll back to see some of the queue elements.

Prince Charming Regal Carousel

Carousels are so much fun. And the Prince Charming Regal Carousel is no exception, with its beautiful horses and Disney music.

Seven Dwarfs Mine Train

Since its debut, Seven Dwarfs Mine Train has become the most popular attraction at the Magic Kingdom. And it’s easy to see why, as it combines a family-friendly coaster with some really impressive modern animatronic characters.

Under the Sea ~ Journey of the Little Mermaid

Hop inside a clamshell and go under the sea to see the story of Ariel as you have never seen it before.

Liberty Square

Liberty Square is such a wonderfully detailed land. That more than makes up for it being the smallest. It also features my favorite Walt Disney World attraction of all-time: The Haunted Mansion.

Hall of Presidents

Enjoy this telling of our nation’s history by all 44 U.S. Presidents.

The Haunted Mansion

My absolute favorite Disney attraction. The Haunted Mansion artfully blends humor, story, and special effects to create an experience you can enjoy again and again.

Liberty Square Riverboat

Take a cruise on the Rivers of America aboard an authentic paddle-wheel ship.

Frontierland

As you move from Liberty Square to the end of Frontierland, you are heading further west while also going forward in time through the pioneer days. It’s much like how America expanded in real life. And when you get there, you find not one, but two thrilling mountain attractions!

Big Thunder Mountain Railroad

Take a ride on the wildest ride in the wilderness: Big Thunder Mountain Railroad!

Country Bear Jamboree

Sit back and enjoy this country-western musical revue of singing bears.

Frontierland Shootin’ Arcade

As a kid, I always loved the Frontierland Shootin’ Arcade. There are so many great effects that happen when you hit the targets. In this video, you’re more of an onlooker than a shooter, but it’s still fun.

Splash Mountain

Everybody has a laughing place. Sometimes you have to plummet through the briar patch to get there.

Tom Sawyer Island

Tom Sawyer Island doesn’t get a lot of love, probably because it isn’t easy to get to. But you can explore the island on this walk-through.

Adventureland

The spirit of Adventure is something shared by all of us, and in Adventureland, you can be an adventurer and explore the world. The world famous Jungle Cruise will either have you rolling on the floor, or rolling your eyes, as you travel the rivers and jungles of the world.

Jungle Cruise

The world famous Jungle Cruise takes you on a tour of the rivers of the world. But will you survive the jokes?

The Magic Carpets of Aladdin

The Magic Carpets of Aladdin is like Dumbo, but on flying carpets. Just watch out for those camels. They spit!

Pirates of the Caribbean

Arrrrrgh! Journey through a town as it is being overrun by pirates on Pirates of the Caribbean! and remember… Dead men tell no tales!

Swiss Family Treehouse

The Swiss Family Robinson was one of my favorite movies growing up. So the Swiss Family Treehouse has a lot of nostalgia for me. I would love to have a treehouse like this one!

Walt Disney’s Enchanted Tiki Room

Another classic Walt Disney attraction, the tiki room is a great place to get out of the heat and enjoy a good show. You can scroll back if you want to see the pre-show.

Nighttime Spectaculars

Every day at the Magic Kingdom is capped off by some great fireworks and light shows. In these videos, you have the best seat in the park for each.

Happily Ever After

Happily Ever After is the Magic Kingdom’s newest fireworks show that also includes projections on to the castle. While the fireworks can be seen from all over the park, the projection portion is best viewed from in front of Cinderella Castle.

Once Upon a Time

Join Mrs. Potts as she entertains Chip with a bedtime story that includes classic Disney tales projected on Cinderella Castle.

Electrical Water Pageant

Recently, we learned that the Electrical Water Pageant was only meant to be a one-time show as a thank you for corporate sponsors when the Magic Kingdom opened. But it is still running today!

We hope you enjoyed this virtual tour of the Magic Kingdom at Walt Disney World. Be sure to bookmark this page if you want to visit again.

Then, we’ll dive into the meat and potatoes of this post – the touring plans. You can use them as is or, just use them as a basis to customize a trip that is perfect for you and your traveling companions.

Note: This list only includes characters who offer Genie+. Please refer to our Complete Guide to Characters at Magic Kingdom for the full list of available character meet-and-greet opportunities.

Before we get too far into it, make sure you check out our guide on the Best Rides at Magic Kingdom for information on every attraction and show at Magic Kingdom.

Genie+ basics

If you are already familiar with Genie+ feel free to skip down to the next section. Otherwise, keep reading and we’ll go over a brief overview. If all of this is new to you, though, we recommend you check out some of our other Genie+ resources to help get you all caught up on how this service works.

Disney Genie+ is the new FastPass+ system at Walt Disney World . Like the old FastPass+ system, Genie+ lets you cut the waits at the most popular attractions by allowing you to enter through a special line called a Lightning Lane (bypassing the longer Standby Line).

But, unlike the old FastPass+ system that was free, Genie+ costs extra; it uses a date-based pricing system, with busier times of the year being more expensive.

Currently, Genie+ starts at $15 per ticket , per day (plus tax) but the price has gone all the way up to $39 per ticket . Unfortunately, there isn’t a way to know ahead of time how much Genie+ will cost on the day of your visit. Instead, you will see the price when you go to purchase it inside the My Disney Experience app.

Why we recommend you use Genie+ at Magic Kingdom

The sheer volume of rides and attractions that offer Genie+ at Magic Kingdom makes it an easy park to recommend you purchase Genie+.

Yes, you can tour Magic Kingdom without Genie+. However, if you only have 1 day in the park or if you want to increase the number of rides and attractions you can see or do, we highly recommend you add Genie+ on to your Magic Kingdom day.

Consider also purchasing an Individual Lightning Lane selection

Magic Kingdom currently has 2 Individual Lightning Lane attractions:

• TRON Lightcycle / Run:  $20
• Seven Dwarfs Mine Train:  $10-$12

If it is in the budget, purchasing an Individual Lightning Lane for both TRON and Seven Dwarfs can make touring a lot easier.

But, if you are looking to save some money, you can opt to try for a spot in the TRON virtual queue (which is free) and ride Seven Dwarfs Mine Train via the Standby Line.

Best Times to Ride Graphic To Save to Your Phone

We have a handy graphic that can help you see the recommended times to visit the attractions at Magic Kingdom.

We suggest you save this image to your phone, so you can reference it on your trip:

How touring works with Genie+:

If you are purchasing Genie+, you’ll often hear people talking about “stacking” and “churning”.

The reality is that on most days – no matter how busy it is – you’ll find yourself doing both .

You’ll see what that looks like in the touring plans we have provided below , but keep reading to learn what stacking and churning actually mean .

Stacking simply means prioritizing the grouping of Genie+ reservations together for later in the day when the standby lines are the longest.

Some people like to stack for late morning or early afternoon, but you can also stack reservations for the evening. Stacking works well if you are planning to spend all day in 1 park, but it is also a popular technique to use if you are planning a late start or if you are hopping to a different park.

Stacking Genie+ reservations works best during less busy times of the year, when Genie+ reservations at most attractions last the longest.

This includes anytime Genie+ can be purchased for less than about $25 per person, per day.

Here’s how stacking Genie+ reservations works:

• At 7 a.m., book an attraction that runs out of Genie+ reservations the fastest, regardless of what that return time is. You can see what we recommend in the graphic above.
• Use Early Entry to ride at least 1 of the available popular attractions (onsite guests only)
• Plan to ride several things in the first couple of hours without Genie+, unless, of course, your first Genie+ return time is during those first 2 hours. If it is, ride it as soon as possible, and then select your next G+ for an attraction that has the return time already pushed into the time of day you are trying to stack for. (Early afternoon until evening works best.) The goal is to stack your Genie+ reservations back-to-back. They can overlap, just make sure you allow enough time to get from one attraction to the next.
• As the standby lines build, ride some of the “anytime” attractions listed in the graphic above or meet characters and continue selecting Genie+ reservations with return times as close to your already stacked Genie+ reservations as possible.
• When the time comes, start using your stacked Genie+ reservations, keeping in mind that it may be possible to fill any gaps by churning attractions with Genie+ reservations remaining.

Churning simply means focusing on snagging Genie+ reservations as close together as possible. You should still prioritize the most popular attractions, but your primary focus is selecting rides with return times as close as possible to the current time, vs. stacking them up for later in the day.

Churning Genie+ reservations works best during the busiest times of the year, when Genie+ reservations run out at all attractions faster and when the lines for even the least popular rides are long.

This includes all major holidays and anytime Genie+ prices creep up over $25-$30 per person, per day.

Here’s how churning works:

• At 7 a.m., book an attraction with a return time as close to park opening as possible
• Use Early Entry to ride at least 1 of the recommended attractions (onsite guests only)
• Continue selecting Genie+ reservations with return times as close to the current time as possible, filling in gaps by riding “anytime” attractions or meeting characters
• Eventually, you may find that all return times are pushed several hours out. Make sure to prioritize your must-dos and begin stacking return times for later in the day.
• Keep an eye on the wait times for popular attractions you were unable to get a Genie+ reservation for, and jump in those lines once they drop to an acceptable level.

IMPORTANT : We’ve included example return times for G+ reservations in the touring plans below, but, keep in mind that you can NOT select your return times for Genie+ . Depending on the time you make your selections and the overall crowd levels, your return times may be earlier or later.

For that reason, you’ll need to stay flexible when you get to the parks and be ready to pivot or adjust your touring plan on the fly.

Early Entry at Magic Kingdom (Arrive before park opening)

Early Entry at Magic Kingdom can be a bit chaotic, especially when compared to the other 3 parks, where things tend to be more organized.

But, even though Early Entry at Magic Kingdom can be incredibly stressful, it is still a must-do if you want to maximize your day.

At Magic Kingdom, there are 3 attractions we recommend you head towards if planning to attend Early Entry:

• Seven Dwarfs Mine Train
• Peter Pan’s Flight
• Space Mountain

Which one you should choose will ultimately depend upon how you plan to spend the rest of your day touring. Make sure to review the information below for our thoughts on that, and definitely check out our Complete Guide to Early Entry and Rope Drop at Magic Kingdom for more tips and strategy.

How to get to Magic Kingdom for Early Entry

Here’s our advice on what time you should be heading to the parks based upon how you plan to get there. If your goal is to be at the very, very front, we recommend you err on the side of following the earlier times listed:

While we used to recommend arriving at the bus stop 60 to 75 minutes before Early Entry begins, after testing the timing out many times, we now recommend 90 minutes. That 90-minute window is especially important if you:

• want to be on the first bus (which we recommend), or
• if you are staying at a large resort like Art of Animation, Pop Century, or the All-Stars, or
• if you are staying at a resort with multiple internal stops, like Caribbean Beach or Coronado Springs.

Expect the first bus of the day to arrive between 1 hour to 75 minutes before Early Theme Park Entry starts . The goal is to be on the first bus of the day, and the lines for the buses will get very long, very fast. Arriving 90 minutes before Early Theme Park Entry will get you to the front of the pack, and likely on that first bus.

Plan to get to your monorail stop about 60-75 minutes before Early Theme Park Entry. For reference, the Resort Monorail Loop goes:

• Transportation and Ticket Center
• Polynesian Resort
• Grand Floridian Resort
• Magic Kingdom
• Contemporary Resort

When traveling by car, plan to arrive at the parking lot entrance about 70 minutes before Early Theme Park Entry. If the parking lot booths are not open at that time, you should be able to just wait for them to officially open up. But, don’t show up too early because they may not let you wait for the booths to open and instead will force you to turn around and come back closer to opening.

• Read more about Parking at Disney World

Important note: The Magic Kingdom parking lot will often open up a bit earlier, sometimes closer to 90 minutes before Early Entry begins.

If traveling by boat, 60-75 minutes before Early Theme Park Entry is probably good.

Walking? You’ll have it the easiest!

Guests that walk are typically allowed to line up at the tapstiles around 60 minutes before the park opens for Early Theme Park Entry. If you want to be at the front of the pack of the walkers, plan to arrive ahead of that. (If you arrive before they begin allowing people to line up at the tapstiles, you’ll be held back by security.)

Important things to know about touring Magic Kingdom

• Magic Kingdom has the most attractions of any park. You can see and do a lot in 1 day, but for an even  more   relaxed experience, 2 days will be better.
• This is also a great park for Genie+, and if it is in your budget, we definitely recommend you purchase it.
• Magic Kingdom Genie+ Priorities (book these first!)

• Remember that if you plan to drive to Magic Kingdom, you’ll need to allow extra time to make your way over from the Transportation and Ticket Center to the front of the park.
• Some attractions at Magic Kingdom have height requirements . If you are traveling with little ones, make sure you take advantage of Rider Switch .

Magic Kingdom touring plans

Plan to spend more than 1 day at Magic Kingdom.

If time allows, you will probably want to spend 2 days at Magic Kingdom theme park (maybe even 2.5 days).

We like to organize touring plans by hour because minute-by-minute touring plans can make you feel like you’re running from place to place without any flexibility, but grouping them by hour can at least give you some sense of timing as you plan.

Remember, though:

These plans are just examples of how to put together your day. Because of the uncertainty of return times with Genie+, you may find your day going a little bit differently – and that is okay!

Here are some example Magic Kingdom touring plans.

7:00 a.m. Genie+ and Individual Lightning Lane recommendations:

• 1st Genie+ Reservation: Jungle Cruise
• Optional Individual Lightning Lane Pass: Seven Dwarfs Mine Train (aim for late morning)

Good Genie+ Options for Later in the Day

Depending on your return times for your first 3 Genie+ reservations, you may have time later in the day to book some additional passes. These Genie+ passes are often available until later in the afternoon or evening, and are all good options if you have time or room in your day to use them.

Main Street, U.S.A.

1. walt disney world railroad.

• Ride Type : Slow Ride; Scenic Train
• Height Requirement : Any
• Duration : Varies
• Suitable For : All ages. Ideal for families looking for a restful break.

Begin your magical adventure with a nostalgic journey aboard an authentic steam-powered train. The Walt Disney World Railroad offers a full-circle tour of Magic Kingdom, providing unique views of the park’s lands and a chance to rest your feet while still soaking up the enchanting atmosphere. My kids love waving at the guests as we chug along, and they always insist on riding in the very last car for the best views. It’s a great way to get off your feet but still feel like you’re doing something — or maybe even sneak in naptime for the little ones. The ride is flexible, offering the option to take a full-circle tour or to hop on and off at Main Street U.S.A., Frontierland, or Fantasyland’s Storybook Circus.

2. Main Street Vehicles

• Ride Type : Slow Ride; Trolley Car
• Duration : 5 minutes
• Suitable For : All ages. Nostalgia lovers and those preferring a slow-paced start.

Cruise down the charming thoroughfare of Main Street, U.S.A., in one of several vintage vehicles, including a fire engine, horse-drawn carriage, or omnibus. These early 20th-century modes of transportation add to the land’s nostalgic ambiance and provide a delightful way to soak up the sights and sounds of this bustling area. Wave to the friendly cast members and other guests as you make your way toward Cinderella Castle, the icon of Magic Kingdom.

Adventureland

3. jungle cruise.

• Ride Type : Slow Ride; Boat Ride
• Duration : 10 minutes
• Suitable For : All ages. Fans of humor. Might be less engaging for very young kids.

Embark on a pun-filled expedition through exotic rivers across Asia, Africa, and South America, guided by your trusty skipper. As you navigate the lush landscapes, you’ll encounter a variety of Audio-Animatronic animals, from mischievous monkeys to majestic elephants, and even a few fearsome natives. Your skipper’s witty commentary and groan-worthy jokes add to the lighthearted atmosphere, making this a fun experience for the whole family. Visiting in December ? You might be treated to a Jingle Cruise, complete with holiday -themed decor and jokes.

4. The Magic Carpets Of Aladdin

• Ride Type : Slow Ride; Spinning; Aerial Carousel
• Duration : 1 minute 30 seconds
• Suitable For : All ages. Young dreamers. Watchful for those with height fears.

Soar high above Adventureland on a magic carpet, controlling your flight’s height and pitch. This Dumbo-style ride offers a unique view of the land and provides a gentle thrill for all ages. My daughter loves pretending to be Princess Jasmine as we fly together.

5. Pirates of the Caribbean

• Ride Type : Slow Ride; Dark Ride; Boat Ride
• Duration : 8 minutes
• Suitable For: All ages. Adventure seekers. Cautionary for children scared by dark settings.

Yo ho, yo ho, a pirate’s life for me! Embark on a swashbuckling voyage through the Golden Age of Piracy on this classic Disney dark ride. As you float through the winding waterways, you’ll encounter Audio-Animatronic figures of Captain Jack Sparrow and a colorful cast of scallywags, witness daring duels, and even descend a thrilling waterfall. My son always looks forward to the cannon battle scene, where he pretends to fire back at the pirate ship. Despite its age, I still consider it one of the best rides in Magic Kingdom .

6. Swiss Family Treehouse

• Ride Type : Walk-Through Attraction
• Duration : Self-paced
• Suitable For : All ages. Explorers and climbers. Less suited for those with mobility issues.

Explore the immersive world of the Swiss Family Robinson as you climb through their iconic treehouse. Discover the ingenious inventions and breathtaking views that make this walk-through attraction a classic. My kids enjoy pointing out the clever contraptions and imagining life in the treehouse. One important note for Guests with disabilities: this is the least-accessible attraction in all of Disney World. Guests must be able to walk, as the treehouse has more than 100 stairs and no elevator.

7. Walt Disney’s Enchanted Tiki Room

• Ride Type : Audio-Animatronic Show
• Duration : 15 minutes
• Suitable For : All ages. Fans of classic Disney charm. May not capture the youngest guests’ attention for long.

Prepare to be serenaded by a tropical chorus of Audio-Animatronic birds, flowers, and Tiki statues in this classic Disney attraction. As you take a seat in this enchanted Polynesian paradise, the room comes alive with the sounds of the islands, led by the crooning of José, Michael, Pierre, and Fritz – four lovable macaws with distinct personalities. My daughter always giggles at the Tiki gods’ silly expressions and the way they make it “rain” inside the theater.

• Duration : 3 minutes
• Suitable For : Kids, teens, and adults. Thrill enthusiasts. Not recommended for those who dislike sudden movements.

Hold onto your hats and glasses because this runaway mine train is about to take you on the wildest ride in the wilderness! Big Thunder Mountain Railroad is a thrilling roller coaster that winds through the stunning landscape of red-rock buttes and mysterious caverns, offering breathtaking views of Frontierland. As you embark on this high-speed journey, you’ll experience sharp turns, sudden drops, and even a trip under a waterfall.

9. Country Bear Musical Jamboree (Reopens July 17, 2024)

• Suitable For : All ages. Fans of country music and kitsch. May not appeal to those preferring high-tech entertainment.

Clap along with a hilarious cast of singing bears in this classic Audio-Animatronic show. With a mix of country charm and silly humor, the original Country Bear Jamboree was a nostalgic favorite for many Magic Kingdom visitors. 2024’s re-imagining of this classic attraction focuses on infusing Disney songs as opposed to the traditional country, western, and folk fare. But purists will be happy to hear that, while the bears may be singing a new tune, the Disney-themed songs will be performed in a bluegrass, rockabilly, Americana, or similar style.

10. Frontierland Shootin’ Arcade (Limited Time Remaining)

• Ride Type : Interactive Shooting Gallery
• Suitable For : All ages. Those with a keen eye and a love for friendly competition.

Test your marksmanship skills at this classic carnival-style shooting gallery in Frontierland. Using infrared light-equipped rifles (no actual projectiles), guests can aim at a variety of targets, including spinning tombstones, cacti, saloons, and other Old West-themed objects.

Sadly, the days of this nostalgic attraction are numbered; Disney has announced that the attraction’s last day of operation will be June 23, 2024 . It will eventually be replaced by a lounge space for Disney Vacation Club members.

11. Tiana’s Bayou Adventure (Opening June 28, 2024)

• Ride Type : Dark Ride, Boat Ride, Log Flume
• Height Requirement : 40 inches (102cm)
• Duration : 11 minutes
• Suitable For : Kids, teens, and adults. Followers of “The Princess and the Frog.” Might not suit those looking for high-speed thrills. Not suitable for those who do not want to get wet.

Get ready for a magical journey through the bayous of New Orleans with Tiana’s Bayou Adventure! This enchanting attraction replaces Splash Mountain and brings the beloved story of “The Princess and the Frog” to life. Join Tiana, Naveen, and their friends on a musical adventure as you float through the lush, colorful world of New Orleans and the Louisiana bayou. With stunning Audio-Animatronics, immersive storytelling, and a catchy soundtrack, Tiana’s Bayou Adventure promises to be a must-do for guests of all ages (who meet Disney’s height requirements ). You will likely get wet on this ride and might get soaked during the big drop at the end.

12. Tom Sawyer Island

• Ride Type : Exploration Area
• Suitable For: All ages. Imaginative adventurers. Less interesting for those seeking passive entertainment.

Step into the world of Mark Twain’s classic stories and let your imagination run wild on Tom Sawyer Island. This rustic play area invites you to explore winding trails, mysterious caves, and rickety bridges, all while immersing yourself in the nostalgic charm of the American frontier. My kids love playing hide-and-seek in the cave and pretending to be explorers discovering hidden treasures.

Liberty Square

13. hall of presidents.

• Duration : 25 minutes
• Suitable For : All ages. History buffs. May bore young children or those with short attention spans.

Journey through the history of the American presidency in this stirring Audio-Animatronic stage show. Every U.S. president is brought to life with remarkable realism, sharing the stage in a celebration of the nation’s democratic legacy. The show combines film footage, narration, and patriotic music to create an educational and inspiring experience. As a history buff, I always find myself marveling at the incredible attention to detail in each president’s likeness.

14. Haunted Mansion

• Ride Type : Slow Ride; Dark Ride
• Duration : 7 minutes
• Suitable For : All ages. Lovers of mild thrills and spooky themes. Potentially unsettling for very young kids.

Step into the foyer of this eerie manor and prepare to be delightfully spooked by 999 happy haunts! The Haunted Mansion is a classic Disney dark ride that combines clever special effects, otherworldly music, and ghostly gags to create a chillingly fun experience. As you board your “Doom Buggy,” you’ll glide through a series of supernatural scenes, from the interactive queue featuring a musical crypt to the grand ballroom where translucent spirits waltz.

15. Liberty Square Riverboat

• Duration : 17 minutes
• Suitable For : All ages. Guests seeking tranquility. Might be too slow-paced for thrill-seekers.

Step aboard the Liberty Belle, an authentic steam-powered paddlewheel riverboat, for a scenic journey around the Rivers of America. As you cruise along the waterway, you’ll enjoy stunning views of Liberty Square, Frontierland, and Tom Sawyer Island. The Liberty Square Riverboat offers a relaxing respite from the hustle and bustle of the park, allowing you to soak in the nostalgic atmosphere and appreciate the incredible attention to detail in the surrounding landscapes. Keep an eye out for unique vantage points of attractions like Big Thunder Mountain Railroad and the Haunted Mansion.

Fantasyland

16. barnstormer.

• Ride Type : Small Drops; Roller Coaster
• Height Requirement : 35 inches (89 cm)
• Duration : 1 minute
• Suitable For : Preschoolers and kids. Young first-time coaster riders. Too tame for thrill-seeking adults.

Join Goofy on a daring flight aboard his homemade stunt plane on this junior roller coaster. Perfect for younger thrill-seekers, the Barnstormer offers gentle drops and turns that will have your little ones grinning from ear to ear. It was my son’s first “big kid” coaster, and he couldn’t stop talking about it all day! The ride is  extremely short (about one minute) so it’s a good use of Genie+. After all, who wants to wait 30-60 minutes for a one-minute ride?

17. Dumbo The Flying Elephant

• Ride Type : Slow Rides; Spinning; Aerial Carousel
• Suitable For : All ages. Young families. Simplistic for those seeking advanced thrills.

Take flight on this classic Fantasyland attraction, soaring high above the park in your very own flying elephant. Control your elephant’s height as you enjoy a gentle spin, making this ride perfect for even the youngest Disney fans. It’s a timeless experience that always brings a smile to my face. And my kids love playing at the indoor, air-conditioned playground while they wait to ride.

18. Enchanted Tales With Belle

• Ride Type : Interactive Character Experience
• Duration : 20 minutes
• Suitable For : All ages. “Beauty and the Beast” fans. Less engaging for those not interested in participatory experiences.

Step into the enchanted world of Beauty and the Beast and join Belle for an interactive storytelling experience. Guests of all ages will delight in this unique attraction that brings the beloved fairy tale to life.

Tips and Tricks for Enjoying Magic Kingdom Rides

• Arrive early : Arriving at the park gates before official opening gives you a head start on popular rides like Seven Dwarfs Mine Train and Space Mountain. If you’re staying at a Disney Resort hotel, take advantage of the Early Theme Park Entry perk.
• Prioritize your must-do rides : Make a list of your top attractions and head to those first thing in the morning. Disney World crowds tend to build as the day goes on, so tackling your priorities early can save you time and frustration.
• Utilize Disney Genie+ and Individual Lightning Lanes : These digital tools allow you to skip the standby lines for select attractions, helping you maximize your time in the park. Consider purchasing the Genie+ add-on for your tickets and making Lightning Lane ride reservations as soon as you enter the park.
• Take a midday break : When crowds and temperatures peak, consider heading back to your hotel for a swim, nap, or lunch. You’ll return refreshed and ready to tackle the evening hours, which often bring cooler weather and shorter lines .
• Be flexible and have fun : While planning is essential, don’t let a rigid schedule keep you from enjoying spontaneous moments of magic. Sometimes the best memories come from unexpected detours and impromptu character encounters.
