Everyone goes to Disney World to get great sleep, right?
An empty Magic Kingdom during After Hours
Okay, so maybe that’s not entirely true…but that still doesn’t mean folks can’t get a good nap in from time to time at the Disney Parks. While nap spots at the park are never truly permanent, there are some spots that are especially reliable for seriel nappers! In fact, we’re sharing some of our favorite spots with YOU!
Magic Kingdom is the most popular theme park in the world, and, as such, there are plenty of great spots for pro cat nappers!
Cinderella Castle
The Tomorrowland Transit Authority PeopleMover is a fan-favorite when it comes to taking a nap. This underrated attraction is incredible to experience when you’re wide awake, but we can’t blame anyone who wants to take a nap while this relaxing ride takes you on a calm journey around and through Tomorrowland.

Many people have strong opinions about The Hall of Presidents, but our strongest opinion is that it’s a top-notch spot to knock out for a bit. This attraction is indoor, air-conditioned, and not really packed with anything exciting enough to wake you up from a deep slumber. When it comes to resting, few places are better.

Another indoor show that’s air-conditioned and incredibly calm is Walt Disney’s Carousel of Progress in Tomorrowland. Sure, you do rotate between each scene and “There’s A Great Big Beautiful Tomorrow” is a catchy jingle that could wake you up due to a subconscious need to sing along, but there’s no denying that this peaceful and reassuring attraction is a great place to catch some Zs.

The Charging Station near Storybook Circus is not only a great way to save your phone’s battery, but also rest up while you wait for your phone to charge up! Provide your own charging cord, plug in, put your feet up, and relax!
Did you know this was in Magic Kingdom?
We’re finally leaving Magic Kingdom and heading over to EPCOT for our next pick! The American Adventure in World Showcase features 35 Audio-Animatronics figures, digital rear-projection images on a 72-foot screen, and patriotic songs. If history’s not your thing, this attraction is PERFECT, as you’ll get an opportunity to close your eyes and tune out the chaos of a theme park for a bit.

Over at Disney’s Hollywood Studios, Vacation Fun – An Original Animated Short with Mickey & Minnie is really cute and endearing. The show celebrates Mickey and Minnie’s favorite vacation memories and mixes in clips from fan-favorites like Panda-monium, Couples Sweaters, Potatoland, Croissant de Triomphe, Entombed, Dumb Luck, Al Rojo Vivo, Yodelburg, and Outback at Ya!. It’s also in an air-conditioned theater, making it a great place to snooze.
Vacation Fun
Finally, at Disney’s Animal Kingdom, Na’vi River Journey in Pandora is as peaceful as it gets. Not quite a thrill ride, this boat attraction takes you into the world of Avatar with vibrant colors, screen effects, and a really cool animatronic. There’s debate among Disney fans as to whether this ride is worth the wait or not, but if the goal is to get a great nap in, then the answer is a definitive YES!
