Tips for Optimizing Your Day

To avoid long queues, download the Park Trips mobile app to check live wait times. Consider arriving early and heading straight for the most popular attractions as soon as the park opens. If you're willing to pay the price, Fast Lane or Fast Lane Plus allows you to skip the lines, which is a valuable asset, especially during summer weekends. Don't forget to bring sunscreen and comfortable shoes, as the walking distances are considerable!
