Wow! If I only had to pick two. MK definitely. But as for the other. It depends on what you like. If you like more educational things go with Epcot. If you like animals go with AK. If you like movies and just plain fun go to MGM. I think I personally would pick MK and MGM. But that is just me.

Of course, one day almost has to be the Magic Kingdom. It's a classic, and it has the most things to do.
For the other day, you should decide between MGM or Epcot. Between the two, MGM is more fun (Rock N Roller Coaster, Tower of Terror), but Epcot has significantly more things to do, while having thrills (Test Track, Mission Space). If you like exploring and discovery and don't mind walking a bit, then Epcot should be your choice. Also, Epcot is the friendliest WDW park in the rain. Even when it rains, almost everything still runs smoothly.

I would go to the Magic Kingdom, definetely (BEST PARK IN THE WORLD!!!:sohappy: ).
The other day I would split into Epcot and MGM. Maybe epcot in the morning, do the best attractions (SE, HISTA, Test Track, Mission Space - this one must be wonderful, I would give anything to ride it...). Then, I would go to MGM, for Rock'n'roller Coaster, Tower of Terror, Fantasmic and the Osborne Lights, if it has already begun this year.
Don't miss PHILHARMAGIC!!!! Then tell me how it is...
Have a nice trip!

My personal favorites are EPCOT and Magic Kingdom (a lot of it is nostalgia), but MGM is also excellent. However, since it's holiday time (and MGM does NOT have Osbourne lights this year), MK and EPCOT are the best for the spirit.
Do NOT miss the Candelight Processional at EPCOT!

MK is a no brainer. If I only had one other park to choose...AK is out so that leaves EPCOT and DS. Tough Choice. The food at EPCOT is wonderful but the Studios is a fun day. Guess I would have to pick Disney Studios as my second park.
18 Days, 20 hours, 21 minutes and 18 seconds:sohappy:

Hello GMAN! :wave:
Don't be a slave to time constraints! You didn't mention in your post WHEN you are going, but it's totally possible to get to all 4 parks in 2 days, depending on your pace and the crowds.
With a Park Hopper pass (which you should get, if only to have an excuseto go back in the future!), you will be able to go from park to park as often as you like!
It's not so much as spending an entire day per park, as it is doing the things you want to in each place!
With that said, and guessing you will have a Park Hopper, you should be sure to see the evening shows in the Magic Kingdom (WISHES), Ecot (ILLUMINATIONS), and MGM (FANTASMIC!).
Most improtantly....HAVE FUN!!! and let us know what you decided when you get back!
:sohappy: :xmas: :sohappy: :xmas: :sohappy:

Purely on that statement I’d say Epcot and Animal Kingdom. However – If you have not been to Disney then one day HAS to be Magic Kingdom, where it all started.
My personal favourite park is Animal Kingdom. But as you only have a couple of days you may get more out of Epcot as it will be open longer.
If there is a chance you may return in the future, then get a hopper so you can jump from Animal Kingdom to Epcot.

It is possible, but without a park hopper it is expensive.
If it were just me, I'd do MK and Studios ending the days with Wishes and Fantasmic.
It sounds like your preference would be MK/EPCOT ending with Wishes and Illuminations. Animal Kingdom still isn't a full day experience, so unless you are staying on property with a UPH, or you can find someone with two unused days on a PH to buy, I wouldn't consider it. I like AK, but I transfer to EPCOT right after the Jammin Jungle Parade.

OK we are going Commando!!!!!
Dec 5th Get a ticket for the Mickey's Very Merry Christmas Party & that will definitely cover the MK.
Dec 6th Do the AK from opening (9 am to about noon) and then park hop over to either EPCOT or MGM for the rest of the day. I would suggest MGM as it is a touch smaller than EPCOT. Catch Fantasmic!
Dec 7th Do EPCOT and catch the Candlelight Processional. I recommend the dinner package for that. See Illuminations after the Candlelight processional.
Dec 8th Rest!!!
Hope this helps!!! Have a great time!!! Belle

Of course the MK, and Epcot, or MGM. Get a parkhopper, if that's the case..

G Man I would tell you to simply buy a 4 day park hopper and not gamble with partially used passes as there is no way to tell if there are any remaining days left on the pass or how many. You can also check with our our Kingdom Konsultant. She has a contact that does sell passes slightly cheaper than Disney does, but you may need to drive to pick them up.
As far as transferring or "Parkhopping" when you buy a park hopper pass it enables yo to visit any or all of the parks on a single day as opposed to buying a ticket per park which is what you would have to do should you not purchase a hopper pass. If you buy a hopper you simply insert it in the entrance styles at the front of any park and enjoy yourself. On your way out of the first park, stop and get your hand stamped ( Insist on this) and take a bus, monorail etc to the next park you want to visit. Hope this helps! Belle
