Travel Reference
In-Depth Information
The key for us was to brief our children on what they were likely to see in each
attraction and then tie it back to something they could relate to in their everyday lives.
During the tour of the greenhouse in Living with the Land, for example, we made a
game of finding foods they like. (They have cocoa beans—chocolate—so we think
that covers almost everyone.) While riding Test Track, we asked the kids to figure out
which parent's driving was most like the ride's. Epcot's Future World attractions can
be a lot more palatable to young children if they're engaged and prepared going in.
It's all about presentation.
The different touring plans are described on the following page. The descriptions
will tell you for whom or for what situation the plans are designed. The
actual touring
plans
are located. Each plan includes a numbered map of the park to help you find
your way around.
In response to Disney introducing FastPass+, we've listed the approximate return
times for which you should attempt to make reservations for specific attractions. (The
touring plan should work with anything close to the times shown.) Check
