Magic Kingdom is one of the most popular lands in the park, so this is where most guests head when they arrive.

However, data shows that this makes Monday the busiest day to visit the land as families want to make it their first visit when they arrive for the week.

Disney experts the Mouslets said they investigated the hack themselves.

They said on TikTok: “The hack says to avoid Magic Kingdom on Mondays because it’s the busiest day.

“The reason being many people are starting their trip off and they wanna start at Magic Kingdom.

“So we took a look at a lot of historical data and it’s true.”

Using data from Thrill-Data.com, it found that the ride wait time at Magic Kingdom was the longest on Mondays, with an average of 37 minutes.

The shortest average wait times were on Thursday, Friday and Sunday, all around 32 minutes.

People on social media agree – one woman wrote: “We went on a Tuesday and rode all of our fave rides before lunch.”

Someone else wrote: “I went to Magic Kingdom on Sunday in December last year on my birthday and it was basically like empty.”

So instead, try visiting Magic Kingdom later in the week instead.

Another Disney expert revealed other days to avoid certain parks when they are busiest.

Travel agent Jill Beignet said: “Epcot is busiest on Fridays and weekends because that’s when school groups and Florida locals come out for the festivals.”

In the comments section, she advised guests to visit Magic Kingdom and Animal Kingdom at the weekend, Epcot early in the week, and Hollywood Studios mid-week.

Here are some of the secret freebies you can get at Disney theme parks.

And a mum-of-two has revealed how to save as much as £7k on a Disney holiday.
