Consider a visit to Disney Springs for dining, shopping, and entertainment. Alternatively, a brief visit to Magic Kingdom for a few hours and the evening fireworks offers a taste of the magic.

Day 1: Magic Kingdom. Remain for the evening fireworks. Day 2: Epcot. Explore World Showcase and savor the evening fireworks over the lagoon.
Visit Hollywood Studios, concentrating on Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge and other thrill rides for an exciting conclusion.
Allocate one day per major theme park, plus time for a water park or Disney Springs.
Day 5: Water Park (Typhoon Lagoon or Blizzard Beach) OR Disney Springs for shopping and dining. Day 6: A Public garden Hopper day. Day 7: Resort pool day or departure.
