Disneyland

Advantages: Just about everything! Kid friendly and unforgettable
Disadvantages: cost of food

...Disneyland is situated in the countryside, about a one hour drive from Charles De Gaux airport. If driving from the airport to the resort, it can be a little tricky to find, with many winding roads and few landmarks. If travelling on the Eurostar, the shuttle actually takes you to within three minutes walking distance of the park entrance and closest hotels. The whole of Disneyland is breatakingly dreamy, a true fairytale land for all ages. Before you arrive at the actual park and huge pink trademark castle, there is a long road filled with a variety of helpful little shops. As well as the expected sweet and toy shop, there is a handy little camera shop, who will copy your memory card onto a disc for about ?5 if you need to free up some space. The park itself is divided into seperate themed areas, which makes it all incredibly...

Review of Disneyland Paris

Disneyland Paris

Advantages: Excellent park and great staff
Disadvantages: No shuttle bus between Davy Crockett ranch and Disneyland Park, and food

...Disneyland Paris was an extrememly good holiday for me and my family. There were five of us, including one disabled and the facilties were generally very good. For my sister, who is disabled, it was relatievly easy to find suitable rides and not have to wait in the long queues for a while, unlike everyone else. This was good, as it is hard for her to stay still in enclosed spaces for too long (such as the queues), and a 'blue' card, which can be enquired about at information enabled four people to go to the front, or nearer the front of queues rather than wait, which made life for us a lot easier. The card could be used on every ride and if you are travelling with a disabled person, you should definitely ask about one at an information point as soon as you get there. Unfortunately for us, we did not know about this until queueing lots...

Review of Disneyland Paris

Disneyland Paris

Advantages: Fun for all ages, excellent atmospere
Disadvantages: Very expensive, not alot of toilet/baby changing facilities

...I have just recently came back from Disneyland Paris Resort. Well what can I say WOW. What a fab time was had by all the family. This was a family trip which included a range of ages from 18 months to a grand old age 60 year old. And I am pleased to say that there was something for all the ages concerned. I would say that the 2 very young ones did come a litle restless from waiting in ques. And yes some of these ques were a fair wait. Ranging from 30mins to 70mins. But the 6yr old throughly enjoyed every minute even the new Hollywood Hotel Terror ride. This is not a cheap holiday places I would advise if you are to go take more than enough cash, as things are very expensive. But never the less its is worth while going. The resturants in the parks themselves mainly consist of fast food which is alot more expensive than usual...

disneyland 2007

Advantages: kids will never stop dreaming about the magic here
Disadvantages: can get busy at certain times in the day

...hi there we have just come back from a fantastic 2night,3 day visit to disneyland paris and i wanted to share our fantastic experience with you all. Firstly if you are going to visit then go between now and march 2008 as kids under 7 go free including hotel stay and the 15th anniversary parades are magical. GETTING THERE We decided to drive so booked with P&O and did the dover to calais crossing and then it was very much straight forward,u just follow the signs to paris which are clearly visable from the moment you get out of the calais terminal,you then hit a motorway which until we hit it we did not realise it was a toll road(it cost 19 euros from calais to paris)which is around £13-£14 pound which may sound pricey but it was so quiet and straight forward it was worth it.Once you get near to paris you pick up the disneyland signs...

Review of Disneyland Paris

Disneyland Paris fun for all the family

Advantages: Great close alternative to US theme parks
Disadvantages: Not as 'Disney' as US counterparts, ot cheap!

...Disneyland Paris opened in 1992 and was the first Disney Park in Europe. I was lucky enough to visit the park in 1992 and have returned several times since. Since you could write a whole book about Disneyland Paris I have just picked out some of my favourite bits and top tips from over the years that I have been there. The Disneyland resort hotel is divided into two theme parks (the Disneyland Park/Magic Kingdom and the New Disney Studios, which opened last year). The resort features six hotels: The Disneyland Paris Hotel, Hotel New York, Newport Bay Club, Sequoia Lodge, Hotel Cheyenne, and Hotel Santa Fe and the Camp Davey Crockett Campsite. The hotels cater to a range of budgets, from the Santa Fe (from £105 per adult for three nights, including park pass, accommodation, and breakfast) up to the Disneyland Paris Hotel (from...

Review of Disneyland Paris

Disneyland Dreams in California

Advantages: Fastpass system really helps with queues
Disadvantages: Small park so gets cramped very quickly

...Disneyland California the first ever Disney park I visited and also the first ever Disney Theme Park opened on July 17th 1955. Located in Anaheim, California, Disneyland California consists of 2 theme parks, Disneyland Park and Disney's California Adventure Park, 3 resort hotels, Disneyland Hotel, Disney's Grand Californian and Disney's Paradise Pier and Downtown Disney for all your shopping, dining and entertainment needs. *~*Tickets*~* I always would recommend purchasing your tickets before you leave the UK as you tend to get better value. You can purchase 2,3,4 and 5 day hopper tickets allowing you access to both parks starting from £65 per adult and at least you don't have to queue up to purchase tickets when you arrive. *~*Disneyland Park*~* As with all Disney Parks there are themed areas, at the entrance you will...

Review of Disneyland (California)

Visit Disneyland Paris on a Budget

Advantages: Low price for area, free shuttle service, adequate rooms
Disadvantages: No children's facilities or pool, inflated food and drink prices

...This is an "all you need to know guide" to staying at the Kyriad Hotel near Disneyland Paris for those who are looking to stay there. There are large chunks of this review that will be irrelevant to some but invaluable to others so I apologise in advance if the length puts anyone off reading it! Sections are labelled clearly so you can skip directly to the parts that interest you personally. ★ Booking my Trip ★ I stayed at the Disneyland Hotel Kyriad from Monday 11 February 2008 for three nights with my 2yr old son so we could visit the nearby Disneyland Paris. As with all Disney hotels, you can expect to pay drastically varying prices to stay here. If I'd have booked my stay directly through the Disneyland brochure or website, I'd have paid double what I did through the Eurostar website! Booking...

Review of Kyriad Disneyland Resort Paris, Marne-la-Vallee

Disneyland Paris

Advantages: Something for everyone
Disadvantages: Very tiring for little ones

...I've been to Disneyland Paris three times now and myself and family (husband and two girls 4 and 7) love it. We've been once for the Summer season and twice for the Christmas season. The last time we went was late November 2002. As there are some really good reports about the parks I thought I'd just add some tips which might help anyone going or thinking of going. Eurostar We travelled direct from Ashford to Marne Le Vallee which took just under 3 hours (slightly longer than normal because of the fire strike). Eurostar food is notoriously expensive and very bad value-for-money. The queues are bad and not too be recommended with hungry kids in tow. We took a packed lunch and it made life so much easier (and cheaper!!). Although our bags were checked (and I was frisked) at Ashford noone seemed to mind. The other good thing...

My Tokyo experience

Advantages: Very nice trip, worth going back again
Disadvantages: No

...Japan is always one of my favourite country to visit in Asia. Let me share with you my itinery in my last trip. This tour took place when I last visited my parents in Hong Kong. Day 1: Got up at 6 to get to the airport for the flight at 9am. After 3 and a half hours, finally arrived at Tokyo. Went to the toilet straight after, there are still two types of toilet(the Western and Japanese styles), like the way it was when i came a few years ago. Weather was not too bad, a bit cloudy but not too hot. Arrived at hotel at around 6 and started my Tokyo adventure after a brief break. Last time I stayed in the Ginza area which is quite commercial. This time, I stayed in Shinjuku, which is like the Soho of Tokyo. much more exciting, with lots of department stores and restaurant. One of the places that I would definitely go when...

Review of Tokyo (Japan)

"THE WONDERS OF DISNEYLAND" ???!!!!!!

Advantages: Kids love it
Disadvantages: Price, queing for everything

...Thought I would share with you all our horrendous experience of `Disney'. Hope you have a bit of time, it goes on a bit. Friends persuaded myself, husband, 5 year old daughter and 2 year old son to come along as they are regular Disneylanders'!. The journey there was pretty pain free and arrived at our hotel "The Cheyenne" all in good spirits. We dropped off all our suitcases and went straight back into the resort. As soon as we walked, sorry queued to get in I could see that it was going to be a nightmare keeping tags on our 5 year, old and friends 6 year old, so we told them that if we get separated for any reason, meed at the Castle, as it was a place we knew that they could see from most places in the park. Within 2 hours, the worst happened, we turned around after getting off of one of the rides, and they were both...
