About Disney World — why count down to it.
Walt Disney World Resort in Orlando, Florida, is the world's most visited theme park resort — and nothing builds anticipation for a family trip quite like a Disney World countdown. Whether you're going for the first time or the tenth, the magic never fades.
With four theme parks (Magic Kingdom, EPCOT, Hollywood Studios, and Animal Kingdom), two water parks, Disney Springs, and dozens of resort hotels, planning your Disney vacation takes weeks — and a countdown keeps the whole family engaged from the moment you book.
