This trip was wonderful, it was as if we actually visited all the countries featured at Epcot! It was a great way to teach kids about other cultures and countries.

Tips for Families

EPCOT Navigation Tips

Flag review

EPCOT is a very large theme park! When you are planning your visit, it might help to keep a few things in mind. FUTURE WORLD When you think about Future World, imagine the human brain. The left side of EPCOT is like the left side of your brain - analytical, hard edges, physical science themed. Here you will find attractions such as MISSION: Space, Test Track and the Universe of Energy. Going to the right, you'll find the artistic and creative themes like the right of your brain. Even the landscaping in this area is curved and sloped. You'll find The Seas, The Land and Imagination pavilions in this area. WORLD SHOWCASE When it's time to travel the world, keep these hints in mind. The American Adventure is the halfway point. The walkway itself is 1.2 miles from start to finish so it's nice to know when you've made it halfway! Also, the border countries of World Showcase are the same as America's. If you travel clockwise, you'll start at Mexico. Counter-clockwise takes you to Canada. Enjoy these little tips to help you navigate EPCOT a little easier!

Tips for Families

Never wait in a line for Spaceship Earth. Check back throughout the day and walk right on!

This is the park with the world and the big ball (as my sister calls it). They have an interesting mash of things to do here. You can meet characters, dine in different countries, fly a space ship, go hang gliding, talk to Crush the turtle. You can even go on a ride inside the epcot ball. This is where we incountered a problem. The ride broke when we were on it. We were stuck on the ride as it was going up hill. Anyone can ride this ride so my baby was with us. She took it like a trooper though and didnt fuss to much. You can see how things may be in the future.

Great place for adults

Flag review

This is a great park for the adults, but there isn't very much for small children to do. It isn't a very enjoyable experience for the little ones.

Tips for Families

Go to one of the other properties with small children.
