Why Going To The Disney Parks Solo Can Be The Most Fun

One thing that I never saw myself doing, but have come to quite enjoy, is going to the Disney parks solo.

Another solo park day

In fact, if you had told me three years ago that I would love going to the parks by myself, I would have laughed in your face.  BUT I have changed my tune and here is why.

Rides

When FastPass+ is available, it’s much easier to snag one for one rider.  AND you can utilize the Single Rider lines at Test Track, Rock ’n’ Roller Coaster, and Expedition Everest.  

You can utilize the single rider lines when you hit the parks solo

You can save some precious park time by hopping in the shorter line for solo riders!

Or use the time to hone your Toy Story Midway Mania skills without the heat of competition!

Use solo trips to practice Midway Mania skills

I’m not above getting in a little extra practice while I’m at Hollywood Studios by myself!

So you want to ride Haunted Mansion twice in a row?  Go for it! Live your dreams! 

Ride any ride you want when you are solo

You won’t even have to worry about your friends (or your HUSBAND) sabotaging your photos.  

Food and Drink

When hitting the parks by yourself, you are free to eat whenever and wherever you want without having to satisfy all palates.  

Heading to the parks solo means eating what you want, when you want

Stop by any EPCOT festival booth that you want to grab a bite to eat.

Or sample the beverage of your choice on a whim!

Solo park trips mean grabbing the beverage of YOUR choice

No need for a consensus or compromise.  Indulge in whichever treats you’d like!

Shopping

You can buy any souvenirs you want without any unwelcome voices of reason or Debbie Downers.

A super sweet PhotoPass photographer may even ask to take your photo! 

At Disney's Animal Kingsdom, by myself, with my new goodies!

(How could I say no to that?! I’m not a monster!)

And don’t worry about looking out of place!  Believe me when I tell you that you will see lots of people solo parking it! And loving it! (Including me!)
