WS or FW first at Epcot?

[ThinkTink721]

When you visit Epcot, do you see the WS or FW first?
Do you split the two areas into 2 days or maybe see both in one day?
:veryconfu :wave:

Epcot is at least a 4 day park for me during my upcoming trip! I have to see and do everything including swim in the Living Seas.

We only had one day to visit during our trip last summer (missed the WS - last seen in 1994).
We are allotting 2 1/2 days in Sept.
I hope we can see it all this time!
:wave:

Well, if you get to the park when it opens, doing WS first is somewhat out of the question since it doesnt open until later in the morning.

Well I try to get to each park before opening so at Epcot my only choice would be Future world as WS does not open until 11:00AM

2 1/2 days should be perfect! I take 4 cause I have my tour that takes up a 1/2 day, and I really want to move slow and take in everything! Plus one day I will be drinking around the world!

I can honestly say we go to Epcot at least 4-5 times a trip (mostly because of ADR). We can go in and out 2-3x a trip hitting 1 or less attractions. It's almost like a downtonw Disney area for people that have a non restricting pass. We used to have 2-3 day hoppers for a week, but now that we have the length of stay passes, we eat and snack and shop at Epcot and rarely go to DTD anymore. It's kinda nice. We can cruise at our own speed.

If you can -- try going right at 11 to WS though. It starts getting busy as the lunch hour goes along. Enjoy the quieter walks before you can't get through after everybody eats. Then have a late lunch (4pm) and enjoy the cheaper meal prices. We were one of 3 tables that had people at it for a 4pm lunch at Mexico last year. We couldn't get Dinner because they were booked. Sure enough after lunch/dinner -- we rode Rio 4x in a row without getting off and the restaurant was PACKED when we got off. Late lunch is great at WS. What was the topic of the thread again? Early morning is good at FW too. Any time after that -- it's pretty much busy for the day.

We've done it in one day. We get there at opening and do future world first, then go over to WS. If you want to see EVERYTHING, then 2 days is great. We're usually only at WDW for 2 days total (gram lives in sarasota, most of our time is spent there on a 1 week vacation). :wave:

Since it opens later, we usually do the WS in the afternoon and FW in the morning.

Same here...we try to hit as many attractions as possible in FW and fast pass what we can until we are hungry and then head off to WS to eat and visit the attractions over there.
