Destination Magic Kingdom Reviews

Lots and lots of walking but so much fun. They've handled the CDC guidelines very well and I saw no guests without masks except when eating. I felt very comfortable. They do a temp check before you enter and staff is excellent in keeping the "happiest place on earth" clean. They stop rides every couple of hours to clean them and limestone pretty fast despite these changes. I recommend a visit you'll feel confident Disney is doing all they can to facilitate your days of fun!

My experience at Disney World Magic Kingdom was amazing! I was worried at first to travel during these times but Disney has gone to really great lengths to make the park a safe place. As a bigger guy, I had plenty of options of rides which was really nice.

The staff there was so friendly and went above and beyond! For example, as we were leaving the park we actually got quite lost and walked into the employee parking lot. Maria (a wonderful Disney employee from New Jersey) was so sweet to us and instead of just heading home after her shift, she helped us find our way to our car! We greatly appreciated her help! #Disney"CustomerService"Magic

Had a great time with the family. Disney needs to stop raising admission prices

Just wanted to chime in here and say they do an incredible job at Disney World to make you feel safe during COVID pandemic. We never felt worried about being close to anyone. Everyone kept masks on and gave space in the lines following the stickers on the ground. It wasn't crowded but still took 30 min on some rides because they only seat two families on an entire boat (front group + back group behind a couple empty rows). Was great!

Literally Orlando parks went from the happiest place on earth to a RE-EDUCATION CAMP, were happiness of visitors, guests and staff members was totally occluded by the prosecution if 3yr old children were wereing a mask correctly under the sofocating heat (UV) of Florida weather. Just to make sure you don't forget PA announcements every 30 seconds and guards (gestapo like offices) yelling and running behind people to comply with a NO SUPPORTED NO BACKED medical, scientific community, statistical or empirical data, absurd mandates.

It was great experience. I would love to go again and again. We went for my daughter's 3rd Birthday. They game a badge of happy Birthday with her name written on it. Everyone was wishing my daughter Happy Birthday. We did almost 90% rides with our 3yr old daughter. She enjoyed it a lot. It was Great memory for us. We went in Jan 2021. Social distancing was great. No chance of getting COVID 19 in Disney. Love

It was great. Would love to come visit again. The park prioritized social distancing. Having markers for people to wait on, so they'll be at least 6 inches a part from the other person. The staffs we're also great. They're very helpful at answering questions and guiding people.

I love Disney and I've been to all of the Disney Parks around the World. I must say I was very excited to visit the Magic Kingdom. I love my experience and day there. Of course lots of the rides are the same of the other parks in different countries, but still magic, especially if you go with kids. I had so much fun and the queues were okay. My favourite ride is Seven Dwarfs Mine Train.

Even at 30% Capacity, the lines were long. The only social distancing was in line for a ride or on the rides. Too many people to socially distance between rides.

The park was ok. I chose to go to Magic Kingdom for my oldest son birthday. There were plenty of rides open and we didn t have to wait long at all to get on them. The food was sub par and the fact that we had to wear the mask the entire time while in the park is why I gave 4 stars. I honestly wish we had just waited to visit. I wouldn t suggest going during the pandemic if you were thinking about it. There wasn t many characters around for us to engage with and the park was fairly empty. Some of the shows were cancelled so we made it to only one. They had sanitizing stations everywhere which is a plus. We made the best of it.

I don't know that there's anything I can add that hasn't been posted before. Fun park for families, especially those with smaller children. If you're going to visit in the summer stay hydrated, bring a poncho and live the saying that 'if you don't like the weather in Florida, wait a few minutes'.

The way this park seperates itself from the rest of the world is the very definition of escapism. While I don't find the park as a whole as interesting as I did when I was younger and am generally more enthusiastic about Epcot and Hollywood Studios nowadays, this park still offers nothing short of an amazing experience, and will be sure to make little ones never want to leave

I visited Magic Kingdom during the ongoing pandemic, Nov 2020 to be precise. It is mandatory that you wear a face mask and keep the 6 feet distance. I can't wait to visit again once the pandemic has been contained.

Went to Magic Kingdom in August 2020 during the pandemic after making reservations a few weeks in advance. The part was AMAZING! I felt safe and clean, Social distancing was in full effect. We were able to ride almost everything in the entire park within 7 hours. They have one float parades throughout the day that just have a single character as the focus which is really cute. Half the restaurants are closed unfortunately, but understandable. Overall It was a fantastic experience although i wouldn t recommend for someone s first visit! There are several missing elements (parades, shows, fireworks, dining experiences etc). But If you re a frequent park goer, this is perfect.

COVID protocols were pretty good. They put some thought into it and they have cast member floating around to ensure the patrons are adhering to the rules.

Social distance and hidden faces all the time, some areas of relaxation inside the park so we can eat and be without the mask. Hand sanitizer spread throughout the park and the characters are from afar !!

This is the first park we always go to on our trip. It just seems wrong to go anywhere but the castle as a first stop. Practically every ride here is inspired by a childhood favorite of mine, or my son. It's the very definition of magical. No matter how old you are, or what is going on in your life, you lose yourself in happiness when you enter, and forget about your troubles. The attention to detail at Disney is second to none. One of my favorite things to do is stay until the park closes for the castle's kiss goodnight. Often times it's much less busy at that time on Main Street, so you can really take in the sites and sounds.

We ALWAYS have fun here!
Have annual passes!
My son Kingston is always a fun ride partner!

Overall, I love all of the rides and characters. Of course, during to covid many things have changed, but Disney has found ways to prevent covid from spreading in their parks such as sanitation stations everywhere to a mask mandate everywhere in the park. They strictly enforce the mask policy and I've seen firsthand people being told to put their masks back on.

The hospitality at Disney has really went down. It makes me sad.

Magic kingdom is full of magic and fun! Despite not doing typical things, they had fun random parades we got to see. They have done great to make your experience magical and worth your while.

A money grab by Disney. Mostly stores to buy junk at absurd prices. Masks under the hot sun on 1.5 hour ride waits. An hour wait just to get your Florida resident ticket verified. 30 min waits for drinks 1 hour wait for food. The rides are 5 mins long but you have to wait over an hour just to get on. Why are we paying full price for half the experience?? 30% capacity but I couldn t even get a drink without dehydrating. Lines on top of lines. You re paying full price to wait uncomfortably in lines. I rather get all the money wasted and spend it on actual fun activities around Orlando. Seaworld was funner honestly. I spent one hour at Disney and spent 600. Never again.

Great park and procedures on COVID policy is very well in place i personally can say i felt more safe inside the parks than what i do in everyday life outside in the real world. would highly recommend a vacation trip to any of the 4 WDW parks

Great experience! Loved Space Mountain, Big Thunder Mountain, Haunted Mansion, 7 Dwarfs Mine Train, Pirates of the Caribbean, Mickey's Philharmagic, Space Ranger Spin, Be Our Guest, Cinderella's Royal Table and the waffle at Sleepy Hollow. Peter Pan's Flight is not worth the line.

MK during covid is wonderful.
Cleaning stations all over the park, bathrooms are exceptional. Everything was great

The water and ice isnt filtered. Don't recommend getting drinks with ice, tasted awful. Wish you guys had filtration system on your drinks! Something! It was bad, I was surprised.

Everyone needs to visit this park! The staff is AMAZING! The food is AMAZING! The magic... AMAZING!!

There is nothing like this park in the world, its just that simple. Now I will be honest, the experience versus what most people expect is like night and day but either way the atmosphere on most days is unmatched. I have done full tours of this park and I've ever worked as an intern here and I still enjoy it. Check out my Full tour of the park just search for Mrbucketlist and Magic Kingdom on youtube.

Everything was great!! We rode about 7 rides!! The kids really enjoyed themselves. Prices for food and beverages were better than I expected.

I took my daughter and it was her first time going to disney world, and she loved every min of it. Although some attractions, and shops were closed. We both enjoyed ourselves, and we will definitely be back. Hopefully those places that were closed will be open when we return

Like most we had an awesome time as usual. To make things better for those who do not go all the time would be to add measurement marks to the end of line sticks so people that are unsure of their child is tall enough can find out at the end of line sign vs walking back to the front to see. Or worse wait and then find out they are not tall enough. Just a process Improvement idea from an analytical person. Thanks as always Disney.

And amazing place, I am surprised it took me till the age of 26 to finally come to Disney World and Magic Kingdom. I was so amazed the first time I was here, I cried during the fireworks when I heard Go the Distance play, from my favorite Disney movie Hercules. It was really at that moment I thought if everyone had the privilege of going to Disney, there probably would be peace on earth.

Went during Christmas Eve of 2020.. The park is very strict on following social distancing... I love that fact more than anything... Guest were constantly informed about the mandatory face coverings and a park employee will let you know if you are wearing a mask the incorrect way. But of course people would rather listen then be escorted out of the park that was almost $200 per person (non annual pass holders price for Christmas). My 4 year old loved the park.. however it s something you need more than one day to fully experience... I went as a child and teenager several times.. and I m so happy that Disney is still able to give children that magical experience... I loved it here.

So much to see and to experience! Each area with it's own theme, parades down main street and just an overwhelming amount of Disney swag to be tempted by. The rides are fun and with fewer people in the park, I think the longest we waited was 75 minutes. My first time here and I'm having a blast! From the Jungle Safari to Big Thunder Mountain, to the quintessential Mad Hatter's Tea Party, the rides were worth the wait and just another part of the magic!

Just Magical, Great for Family with young Children!!

A magical time with 7 year old grand daughter. Wearing masks all day in the heat was not the best. Ordering food was a chore.
Downloading apps then waiting for text to pick up your order. Not pleasant.

It was a cold Christmas morning 12/25/20 but this fantasy world still warms my heart at 63! Great family time too!

Probably the best place on earth to go to. My kids love coming here every year, and it is worth the price of admission. Disney knows how to put on a show, and entertain all ages there. The rides are pretty fun, and they have some of the most beautiful sites your eyes will ever see.

Even with the pandemic it is still fun to go to. They keep social distancing in place, and keep things fun. The park is amazingly clean as well. If you have never been you need to go at least once in life to Magic Kingdom. The night shows are so wonderful to see in person.

If you have kids, and bring them here. You will be their hero, and a rockstar.

Super clean I went in January. My family and I had a magical time especially my niece & nephews. When you are there you absolutely forget about the real world

Magical place. Might get lucky to spot a favorite character so bring you autograph book & pen! Try your hand at the sword in the stone maybe youll be strong or worthy enough to pull it up.

Had a good time overall, I mean it is Disney, but the lines for food were a mess with the phone app ordering push. They usually only had one register open that was difficult to get to and the rest were online order pickup. The online ordering seemed to take too long. Also was disappointed that they don't have the light shows or fireworks yet. The lines for rides were all under an hour except for splash mountain.

Only go here if you want an amazing time and want to make great family memories. On a side note, our youngest lost his iPod on Big Thunder Mountain Railroad, A day later they were able to find it and are sending it back to us! Disney does it right!!!

We enjoyed our time here. It is definitely the busiest, but I enjoyed the rides and restaurants here the most. Try out Splash Mountain! Even my wife, who hates roller coasters, loved it.

Omg I loved it so many things and not enough time.it was awesome

How can you not love magic Kingdom? It's the heart of Disney, and it's where Cinderella's castle is!! The park is fantastic, I do not have a bad word to say about it. I love everything about it, but I think space mountain is my favourite ride. I was lucky enough to be there for 4th July celebrations and the party Disney throw is immense. I would definitely commend having breakfast with Cinderella and friends in her castle and also a character breakfast. Its just the most magical experience

Sit down restaurants were on point. Just hard to get reservations so advance booking recommended. Much better quality than the quick order stuff and only slightly more in price. $15 vs $23ish but more than double the quality.

Getting there early is key to avoid long lines on the rides. Leave at lunch to eat elsewhere and return after nap, pool etc at 4 and the lines will be relatively short again and you can avoid all that heat.

The happiest place on earth. Even with covid going around, we felt very safe.

Crowds are lower then usual, Disney is doing a pretty good job or making sure people are adhering to mask policy.

Quintessential Disney. Wonderful family experience with this park. Never get tired of going.

This was my first return to the parks since Covid . They did a great job with safety measures and I felt the same magic as always even with some changes to operations. Looking forward to our return visit

You can't get anymore magical than a visit to Magic Kingdom. While sitting down a cast member noticed a melted cone on the ground near my kids and they offered to replace the cone. It wasn't our cone though. Lol There's so much to see and do, I would suggest making it a 2 or even 3 day adventure to see and do everything.

Great place to see Mickey Mouse and other Disney characters. Rode Astro Orbiter and It s a small world. Had lunch at Pinocchio Village Haus and ate vanilla ice cream for dessert. Otherwise, a little crowded and will come back.

It was finally nice to be back home. The park was clean and not crowded at all. The only draw back was our waiter at The Liberty Tree tavern. He acted like he couldnt be bothered to take care of us as there was only 2 of us in my party. He spent more time and attention with bigger parties. I can only guess he assumed we were not big tippers. However he would be wrong, we always tip at 30 %. The food was good when he actually did bring us what we asked for. Not sure i will go back to The Liberty Tree tavern again. Rides were well maintained and appeared to be clean.

It's a very great place to visit with family or friends and see all different people from around the world.

Covid-19 hasn't changed much about this park. There is of course the mask wearing, social distancing markings, and sanitizer stations. Most attractions are open. They have closed some restaurants. They just need to figure out how to combat the lines. They've reduced the hours and other attractions so the lines are longer. We didn't get to ride all the rides and we were there all day. I don't think it's quite fair to charge over $100 and not get to experience all of the rides.

Amazing. I recommend following a touring plan guidance. If you google the order of rides you should follow, there is some great guidance out there that worked really well. It was extremely crowded on NYE and we got on 10 rides before lunch.

This is an amazing place! I have been coming here since my very early childhood with my grandparents in the 70s and still love coming today! Some of the rides just bring back wonderful memories and others bring new ones! The park is always kept so clean and is always beautifully landscaped! The cast members are always so helpful and friendly and make sure that your stay is amazing. The fireworks show that they have at night is by far the most amazing of all the parks here on the grounds and the best anywhere else! The music, movies on the castle, lasers, and fireworks are so perfectly choreographed to music! It is the most AMAZING show and so worth staying to see it! This park is for the kids and the kid at heart! The food, rides, shows, parades, shopping, exhibits are all so much fun. It is truly and wonderful experience. It may cost a lot of money, but it is really worth it!

It is a beautiful place but I did not see the magic of Disney even though it was my first time in the Kindom Magic Park, I understand that because of all the restrictions that there are due to the covid-19 pandemic. I only saw Mickey and Minnie at the end of the day saying goodbye from a high balcony.

The Magic is Alive!! Love..love..loved my first time EVER at the Magic Kingdom. Great job staff and everyone for making the experience memorable. Star Wars

Magic Kingdom Park is one of the theme parks at the Walt Disney Resort, Florida. Attracts more than 20 million visitors in 2018. It has been the most visited theme parks in the world since 2000.

No longer the happiest place on earth. Employees here are rude, disgruntled and mean. I have had multiple disney employees mistreat me. I no longer go to disney or support their parks. I exclusively go to Universal Studios Orlando now and even purchased an annual pass. My suggestion is you do the same.

If I could give zero start I would. They are minimizing overhead by closing many activities and maximizing admission. Thus parks are over saturated and lines are never ending. You spend 90% of your time in lines and waiting to get on a 2 minute rides.

Can't wait to take the kids back. Probably cheaper to take then overseas but they love this place

We were having difficulty assigning our park reservations to our tickets. We met with a few park employees that couldn't figure it out for us. Then we saw Mindi. Mindi was extremely helpful and helped us link our passes to our wristbands and quickly get us into the park. We had an amazing time and I thank Mindi for her assistance!! Paul was also very helpful with guest services while we were in the park. It was a magical time.

Fairly good, but miss the shows and end of evening fireworks.

Always the Happiest Place on Earth! Christmas time just makes it even MORE special. Thanks to all the cast members who make it GREAT!

Had a wonderful time with my sister's and 88 year old Mom. They were taking precautions to keep everyone safe.

It was ok. Kids liked it, but not like I remember as a kid. Likely covid related. Just no interaction between Disney characters aside from a couple floats.

What can you say, it is Disney World the happiest place on earth.

For the most part was Ada accessible the passes were great for the rides! Also was pretty covid friendly we felt safe with the cleaning they were doing.

We had a ball just wished we could have had meet and greets with characters but Covid did not allow that.

We came here with our adult kids and our seven-year-old granddaughter. She loves Disney movies and Disney princesses so she was excited. Unfortunately, we were not as impressed as everyone else seems to be. All of the parks at Disney are expensive. On top of that, they offer no family meal plans or deals on drinks. My granddaughter loved meeting the princesses and that was pretty much the highlight of Magic Kingdom for our family. I was glad that we went just to say that we went but we will never be back. Even our granddaughter was much more impressed with other parks we visited while we were in Florida. Hoping that the higher ups at Disney start thinking more about the families visiting the parks and how much they are already paying. At least give a refillable cup deal or something! Currently, the only people that get any kind of meal deals are those that stay in their overpriced hotels.

Everything to love, nothing to hate, you'll wish you had more time even if you had all the time in the world...for adults who like adult beverages, it's hard to come by, otherwise, perfect.

Had a great time, we miss Disney California was alot of fun things to do, test run for a trip with the grandbabies in the future

The rides and attractions were great once you got to experience them, however, 4 stars for the fact that the tram car was not working at all to take people from the parking lot to the park. The tickets should have been discounted at least $5 for the inconvenience considering the price of the tickets. Oh and $40 for a small cheese pizza is a bit overkill.

Goodbye reality as you walk under the tunnel onto Main Street you are transformed into the Magical World of Disney. There is no better feeling for your soul, your mind, and the child that still is inside of all of us that so badly needs to be brought out and not forgotten. Thank you Disney for your ATTENTION TO DETAIL AND YOUR CONTINUING EFFORTS to KEEP EVERYTHING SANITIZED, ENFORCING SOCIAL DISTANCING, Making MASKS MANDATORY AND LIMITING PARK ENTRY PERCENTAGES!!!!!! We LOVE YOU!!!

Had fun. But the mask spicy for our 3 year old was ridiculous. Wont be coming back until this pandemic is over. Not worth the hassel.

Loved it. Our first time to Disney World. We usually go to Disneyland.

Very dedicated to following social distance and mask guidelines. Don't postpone your trip. Always a fun time.

Always awesome! Parades are smaller and more often which I think is fantastic! Best restaurant is Liberty tree Tavern! And that castle is just breathtaking!

My family and I enjoyed visiting Magic Kingdom. If we visit again, we definitely reserve the fast passes at the beginning of our visit. It was never explained to us how to use the fast passes when we purchased the tickets.

I need three days to go though this place just on its own and I will never regret a second of it

Though we tried and gave it a good effort, we couldn't do this entire park in one day. Since we were not allowed to park hop, we hit the must-do rides, but wish we could've spent another day at the park. Though character interactions were limited, all the characters were in at least one parade to make an appearance. Shopping and dining were also reduced, but Disney tried to make it worth every dollar spent.

Felt safe. Pleasantly surprised that most shows and rides were open. Had gone to Hollywood studios and it was a major disappointment and not worth the admission price.

If you've never been then YOU MUST GO AT LEAST ONCE IN YOUR LIFE! Disney is amazing and not just for the kids. I do highly recommend the premier parking otherwise its a really long walk to go home.

Went here for the first time and it was good. Wearing masks is strictly enforced inside the park. Most of the rides and attractions are similar to the Disneyland in California but the park is way bigger. The weather was hot and humid so bring a lot of water and extra clothes or small towels.

Most Magical,
Still have to wear a mask EVERYWHERE,
unless reading WHILE stationary.
Lines are physically long so there is a cat member with a sign to mark but quick as everyone is good about keeping 2m/6ft apart.
W.Disney World now if you cannot adhere to the mask policy, YOU will be asked to leave.

Mad Hatter Tea Party is closed;
Tomorrowland Transit Authority closed, been closed for awhile, hmmm.
Oddly, Small World longer then Peter Pan, that's odd.

No FastPasses available but there is still FastPass line for handicap and special people who have FastPass from ages ago.

Everything is a 5-55min wait, not bad.
Not crowded either.
Downside, many restaurants closed. What is open is by reservation only or Mobile Order. No walk up service.

Going back next month.

We went on a Thurs in Jan. Myself, hubs, 3 young adults, and 1 kiddo. Let me say I was so nervous about visiting the Magic Kingdom during Covid! Some of the reviews were not great. We had THE BEST time!

Had a blast here!! Get there early and hit the big rides first, almost no wait time!! Also, don't let that mask slip even below your nose, someone will correct you real quick! I'm not complaining, only informing. Well worth it!!

the unhappiest place on earth with some rides. almost all of the rules cancel out eachother (for instance the monorails were closed but in order to get into magic kingdom you had to take the monorail) and for all the boat rides they had the More

Despite the expense this is an American icon. We brought our Mothers instead of the kids. Neither had been there before and both seemed to enjoy it. We did a few rides that they could not and plotted out an experience each would enjoy. We meal planned well and everyone had an excellent time. We brought the grandkids two years ago and it was a great time. Something for everyone and every kids favorite place at some point of their lives.

Disney is still magical especially now lines are not that long ...

No big parade, or fire works. Price for non floridians, me included, double the ticket price. Two parks 8 tickets over $1,000.
Roller coster rides, 3 small ones, for kids I guess would be ok. For teens, would get bored soon. Don't know if weather was a factor, or that it was Monday.
Best rides in my opinion: log ride at splash mountain.

Overpriced and aged. We did have fun. But I cannot see going back anytime soon. Lots of closed areas. And not very organized if compared to Universal. Multiple staff members mentioned being underpaid and short staffed. Which made them bitter. I had one staff member say to me maybe they would bring more back if people were smart enough to social distance. I think the culture of the staff for the most part do not enjoy working there and it shows.

Magical, rides are definitely fun and wait times were decent compared to expectations. Family loved it

It's not really quite the same with the pandemic crowds (low) but it sure makes it easier to navigate the streets. The most popular Rides(7 Dwarfs Mine Train Ride) are still busy and a few are down for maintenance or a reboot like Splash Mountain, one of my all-time favorites! And the same goes for food and treats...Casey's, LIberty Square, and many others are closed or only open on weekends. For me and my bride we can actually enjoy shopping more.

I'm so amazed at how Disney is handling covid measures. We've gone several times over the last month and it's felt really safe. There is hand sanitizer everywhere. I also bring wet wipes and we wipe down everything we touch and wipe our hands frequently.
