    The opening music in this video sounds like if a malignant brain tumor could actually have diarrhea, straight into your mouth, which you then pooped out later and then that poop wrote music. Probably the worst thing humanity has ever created, and after the 20th century that’s saying something.

    • @ManpsOnTheMap
      @ManpsOnTheMap  Рік тому +1

      Hi! I guess it depends on how busy it is. I went at the end of the day and found it was quieter! The most popular ride in the park is Mario Kart, so I'd say either do the lower lot first when you get in the park to get on the ride or towards the end of the day. I was able to walk straight into Nintendo World when I went in the afternoon, having done the upper lot in the morning. Hope that helps 👍🏽

    A great guide but I do think some things unmentioned as I have gone there MULTIPLE times is that mario kart ,Forbidden journey ,and sometimes the mummy, jurrasic world and transformers save MASSIVE time and about a third of the time even staying together as a group when boarding. and the over exageration of express pass as it is quite easy to get all rides done in a day and the posted wait times can be five to 30 minutes over their posted times so you are not going to be spending as much time in line. also the simpsons ride is suuuper overrated.
