Overall, January has some of the lowest crowd numbers and the best weather. (Except for the first week in January, it will still be crowded due to new years, the marathon, and some schools start back in the second week on the month.) If you want to get exact crowd and wait time stats, check out my friends at Touringplans.com and their “Disney Crowd Calendar “
I always go to Disney in late January because if feels like the perfect time to go with cooler weather and shorter lines. Have a magical day!
