5. Arrive Before Rope Drop

The very best time to be in Magic Kingdom is the first hour after opening. During this time, crowds are low and lines are short. For this reason, it is important that you arrive 30–45 minutes before rope drop and utilize the time right after rope drop well. This is the perfect time to hop on a high-priority ride that you couldn't snag a FastPass for.
