3 days/2 nights - We stayed on site at Santa Fe, perfect location as it’s a short walk. Park opens up an hour earlier for hotel guests which is a good time to get on the longer wait time rides. The app is great to help with this. Character meets in the park were amazing and the character breakfast was also great. To help kill time in queues we played games and had snacks. Photo pass is also a good idea you can get a temporary one if you’re unsure though. It’s a bit expensive but not ridiculously over priced. overall we had a wonderful experience.

A lovely Disney experience - We had two children with us Aged 6 and 3. Stayed at B&B hotel outside the park. First two shuttle buses on first morning into the park completely full. So we got a private taxis outside the hotel. €15 for family of 8. After this we just used taxis rather than the shuttle as it was always packed. The most we paid was €20 so it’s an option. Yes Disney is expensive but we had a wonderful time. Weather very wet but the children absolutely loved it. The food is silly money and fairly bland American food. We downloaded the Disney App which is brilliant. Went on some amazing rides. Ratatouille, Pirates of the Caribbean, Buzz Lightyear, Star Wars, Cars. Saw two brilliant shows, Lion King and the Mickey Magic show. Met some wonderful characters, Mickey and Minnie, Tigger, Goofey, Cinderella. Marvellous daytime parade and evening fireworks. On our last day we went into Disney village for lunch and, shopping. The Rainforest Cafe was a lovely experience.

Amazing!! If you’re thinking about going, do it!! - When we first got there it was amazing, we didn’t know where to start there was so much to look at. We went on thunder mountain and the line was quite annoying for my daughter with adhd but she said it was so worth it and had the best time and she didn’t think any ride was going to be better. We also went on the phantom manor, ratatouille, Alice’s labyrinth, dumbos flying elephants, nemos submarine and walked through the tale of Aladdin. My daughter loves ratatouille and was so excited to go on it and look at it all. The shops, they were great but very expensive for some things but overall there’s something there for all budgets. I don’t think people are being fair giving 1 star reviews because they simply must not have been bothered to dig deep into the parks.

Until next time DLP! - We have just spent 5 days in Disneyland Paris and loved every minute of it. The Main Park still has the magic and atmosphere that Disney is known for. The snacks are to die for (try as many as you can and put money/calories to the side!) The parades and shows are fantastic. It’s a shame Stars on Parade is still going (we’ve seen it dozens of times over the years), but the new Million Splashes of Colour was great. It’s worth standing in Central Plaza for the best view though. Loved the drones and the last ever Disney Dreams (I had always preferred this over Illuminations). The park requires planning to get the most out of it. We ride early morning and into the evening, never queuing more than 45 minutes for anything. Character meets can be arduous though, and we prefer to pay for character meals and not queue for the 2+ hours at the pavilion and Meet Mickey! See you again very soon Disneyland Paris!

Disappointing - relies on Disney notoriety - We came with 4 adults over 2 days. We were disappointed and dismayed by the number of attractions closed or broken. That there is a rather significant waiting time on the attractions is conceivable but on the same day we waited 1h45 (you already need patience 😬) in the queue for 2 attractions (train the mine and peter pan) to arrive a few minutes from the goal and we were asked to evacuate following a technical incident, without any commercial gesture like priority for a next passage, we found it very average to say the least unacceptable!!!! In the Disney studio, given the significant number of attractions under renovation, it is rather unusual to pay the high price and ultimately have very little access. So disappointing in terms of value for money

Good but need to sell foods that are as advertised and less ride closures at once - We have recently returned from a trip to DisneyLand pros (my first time since around 2010) and I was pleasantly surprised by it whilst also being slightly disappointed. Firstly the food How Disney can false advertise so many items they sell baffles me. The Beignets here in Laris are nasty, the image shows nice fresh looking beignets covered with sugar powder, yet what you get is a fat dry 1/4 filled donut. There is no sugar powder on them at all and the filling is nowhere near enough. I've stayed at French Quarters in Florida and they are known for the Beignets and rightfully so as they are out of this world, however in Paris they are far from acceptable and should be pulled from the menu... Then the box of mini crepes with Nutella, mmm yeah you get 12 as advertised but they are not in a box at all. We ordered them thinking they'd be easy to share out of a box, yet they came in a pathetic paper cone. Again false advertising and very disappointing, however these did taste great unlike the beignets. The Macarons bought in the store were ok, a few clearly old as they were stale and so not ideal and tbh a waste of money. The good foods, bought from near a small world are the strawberries covered in chocolate, we had both dark and milk chocolate and they were great, we didn't try the white chocolate but I'd be inclined to say they would be awesome. The crepes here with both sugar and Nutella were also lovely's. Then finally the Groot biscuits, we bought two and both ended up being chocolate and they are lovely. Now the rides It seems they are closing many down at once which is a shame, we missed out on two but as our trip came to an end more and more construction boards were erected which would be a shame for many new arrivals, incl boards around and covering Buzz at the entrance to the Toy Story area. Flight Force: Wow this is so well themed. I love the original Rock 'N' Rollercoaster and was a little concerned about the re-theme, however it works well, very well tbh and makes for an amazing ride. Crushes Coaster: A first for me this time and I was not disappointed, a very good all round coaster which is great fun for all, however I was disappointed to hear from my partner that none of the lighting within the main building of the coaster ride area was on as she's seen before. No one told us this and so I'm assuming that where it was all dark would actually have some lighting and theme which I hope to see next time. Hyperspace Mountain: I was very annoyed this closed the day I arrived, there was no warning of this as if I'd have known I'd have ridden it right away, yet the first full day I woke up to check the ride times and it was advertised as closed :( Indiana Jones and the the temple of peril: Superb, well themed, fun and exciting little coaster this one, a little clunky so to speak (similar to the Space Mountain in Florida) but a very good ride. Pirates of the Caribbean: Another classic and must ride imo and an awesome one, slightly diff to the Florida one and highly recommended. Tower of Terror: This was my first time riding this in Paris and Wow. It's so diff to the one in Florida. Firstly you don't swap buildings going into the 5th dimension like in Florida and on this one you also have stops between the ride experience (which again doesn't happen in Florida). So although they are both random sequences of drops, the same heights and speeds they feel very very different as in Florida it's non stop, whereas this one catches you out more with the stop starts broken down with the creepy child scenes etc. This imo is a must ride for anyone :-) Big Thunder Mountain: This is a massive improvement in the one in Florida, it's faster, longer, higher and much improved. I love how you go under the lake to its own island and back and the theming is much better and very well improved over the Florida version. Web Slinger: A great new Spiderman ride which is a great one for all the family. Now the Parks as a whole Magic Kingdom was lovely as always, an awesome castle which you can actually both go into and under to see the dragon, the layouts great with my only concern being the closures of rides not being advertised well. I love how you can get champagne in the park also here and the evening shows were good but not great. We don't get to see the drone display as they had technical difficulties and the fireworks imo be other Disney parks were not existent, it was more a light projection show. It was still a great experience but I think they need to work on their planning of maintenance and deff advertise foods how you get them (even if they look awful and won't sell as at least it's true and honest). Hollywood studios: Great park, great atmosphere and some great rides, however again too much maintenance and closed attractions and again foods advertised which are far from how they seem. Overall we had a great time but tbh we took a lot of our own food as we pre-checked things and knew we'd be disappointed with the food sold in the parks vs what we are used to in Americas equivalents which is disappointing for things like beignets which you'd expect to be great in France...

Money making machine with little value for your money - Pay pay pay and then pay some more. Your child will be considered adult for these payments once they turn 11, so be aware. You will need to book in advance just about everything. Doesn't matter how much you spend in your room in any of the hotels, want to eat breakfast, lunch or dinner? Have to pay. And book. And don't worry where you book, it's basically going to be crappie food but you will pay as if you were at a Michelin star restaurant. And you will queue, for everything, reservation or not, doesn't matter, you will queue. Got a fast pass? Spent 200 euros on it? Doesn't matter, you will only be able to use it once per attraction, not in all the attractions and only for the day. You know what you will be able to do? Shop. A lot. We got no less than 40 shops ready for you to buy every item of overpriced stuff that you can think of. Feel like a very small backpack for 90 euro? We got it. Need a sweatshirt that costs 5 euros to produce for 75? Sure thing, we got it for you. This is disneyland for you. Kids love the experience. Me? 300 euros for a buffet lousy dinner? 120 for a breakfast buffet for 3? Not so much. On the good part, the staff were absolutely friendly and helpful with our queries and they deal with a huge amount of people everyday with a smile. Big kuddos for them.

There's no Disney Magic here. - There's no Disney Magic here. Pure greed is what's wrong with Disneyland Paris they sell 3 times more tickets than the park can really accommodate, the queues are horrendous even for the small rides and shows, the magic hour is a joke, as very few rides are open for that hour, so everyone one heads to the ones that are after 15 to 30 minutes they are no better than the rest of the day. Which is all a ruse to get people to pay twice, to use the park by having to buy fast passes at up to 15 to 20 euros a ride or 180 euros a day. The parks and village are lacking investment and look tired and run down, large sections of MGM were screened off and inaccessible and rides were breaking down which wouldn't be a problem if you hadn't queued for 30 to 45 minutes or are closed, we lost nearly two hours on Big Thunder Mountain after it broke down twice, not to mention 40 euros for a set of plastic mouse ears and 80 euros for a sweat shirt. Don't waste your money go to Florida and don't be disappointed. 3 days of my life I won't be repeating. From the 28 to the 31 of June. Date of experience: 28 May 2024

Robbed and no help from the staff - This was me and my family’s 2nd time here. We had a relative good time, in spite of the long queue line and most outdated rides. What really turned me off was that we were robbed. I left my kids backpack on the stroller (we took our bags with documents and money with us) thinking nobody was going to take that. To our dismay, after riding blanche neige, something like 30 minutes someone stole his mickey mouse backpack. It was mostly sentimental, but we reported it, expecting at least a “we are going to check our cameras”. Nothing, they gave us a note acknowledging we report it and said if we wanted to check the cameras we should go to the police station and report the robbery and only if the police deemed it important they would someday check. It broke our hearts that his journal with all his drawings were lost. The lack of empathy was horrible. I will probably never go again.

Never to go back again - They bring in an unsustainable number for the park. Hours of queuing for everything. Queue skipper in the morning available first time in the evening (since it's full). The most complete queue skipper (if you want to say that) is 1 queue skipper for 9 attractions for the modest sum of 160 euros each. Pure madness. SHAME ON YOU. Mickey Mouse would turn back in his grave. Nothing but happy children.
