When to Go Itineraries for the Rest of the Year Basic December Itinerary
Summary To-Do List Sat Sun Mon Tues Weds Thurs Fri Sat Sun
You will begin your visit to Disney’s Hollywood Studios today, completing it later this week.
You will be finished at the park by 3:30, and have the rest of the day off.
Your goal at the Studios is to see a couple of very popular rides first thing while the crowds are lighter, and then to see in as many of the popular shows as you can until the 3:00 parade, fitting in more rides between shows.
You will see the rest of the Studios later this week.
FIRST THINGS
- Get up early and have breakfast in your room
- Be at your hotels’ bus stop by 7:20 am, and catch the bus to Disney’s Hollywood Studios
AT THE PARK
- Arrive at the park by 8am
- Get in line and await the opening
At opening, pick up a guide map and “Times Guide” (a show schedule), head to Sunset Boulevard, turn right, go to its end, find the Tower of Terror fastpass machine, and get fastpasses for it. Click the thumbnail to see where the fastpass machine is- Ride Rock N’ Roller Coaster
- Review the times guide, and pick out times before 2 pm to see Indiana Jones Stunt Spectacular, Beauty and the Beast Live on Stage, and Lights Motors Action Extreme Stunt show (if conflicting times won’t let you see all of these today, you can see the ones you miss on later this week)
- See these shows, returning for your Tower of Terror ride when your fastpass directs, and seeing nearby rides and attractions in between the shows
- See the American Idol Experience
- Have lunch at the Backlot Express (counter credit) when you are ready—try to go before 11 or after 1
- At around 2:30, find a spot to watch the parade near Mickey’s Sorcerer’s hat (the parade route is on your guide map)
- Watch the parade
- Head back to your hotel the way you came
Note: Bring The Comprehensive Guide to Rides and Rides that Might be Skipped in case your day gets to be too intense!
YOUR EVENING
You are free the rest of the afternoon and evening. Dinner is at your hotel counter service (counter credit)
