Perfect timing!! We have been a Disneyworld family since my youngest was 6 but this year she is 25 and we are having a mum and daughter only trip to Disneyland Paris! I am so excited but also know it will be so different to what we are used to. Thanks for the tips ☺️
That sounds like a wonderful trip. I’m sure you’ll create some amazing memories together. ❤️ We hope the tips help a little. Thank you for watching x
Great tips for first timers, we are heading to Disney Paris for the first time in may and really looking forward to it.
Thank you so much 😊 we hope you have the most wonderful time. 🙌 x
About tip 1, certainly book for 2 days for both parks(when staying not in the bubble). This makes it possible to alternate between the two parks when the one park is busy or you did already everything you could do. :)
Thank you for watching and adding your tips 😀 x
Brilliant run through of the must dos and don'ts. I used to take my two young daughters to Disney World in Florida and then regularly to Disneyland Paris always at the Sequoia Lodge as they got older. We're now planning a return visit in May next year to celebrate my 70th birthday with my two adult daughters, my two pre-school grandchildren, two sons-in-law and my daughters' mum (my ex wife). Should be a lot of fun and we're choosing term time and avoiding UK/French public holidays. Your tips and tricks are invaluable in helping us to plan it all. Thank you!
Thank you for your kind message. We’re so thrilled we have been able to help a little. ❤️ x
Good evening, I love watching anything on DLP even though it will be my 6th time in 19 sleeps! One of the things I love doing is getting a drink and a snack and just sit for 20 mins or so, taking in the atmosphere or even just a walk down main St, listening to all the sounds and the smells are so yummy!
Have the most magical time on your next trip 😀 I love that idea. I was actually transported there in my mind whilst I was reading your comment. Thank you so much for watching x
Great tips, thank you!! Will hopefully be going in September 🤞 Love the gallery wall 😍😍😍
Thank you so much for watching 😃 Glad you like the new background. We're thrilled with our gallery wall. We finally managed to finish it 😂 x
Thanks for the Tips even though I have been multiple times we are taking my Aunt and Cousin there so now I’m sharing this with my Aunt. Thanks a lot for the tips!
Thank you so much for watching 😊 glad that the video could help a little. Have a magical time! X
Just what I needed!! We are heading to DLP in June 🎉 We are Orlando locals and are so excited to see a different park 😍
Amazing! We absolute love Orlando and Paris. If you need any more help we’ve got some vlogs up on the channel from Disneyland Paris from last year. We hope you have a fantastic time 😊 x
Thank you so much for sharing xx
Thank you for watching 😊 x
Thank you 🎉 I’m a pass holder here in the US, so I’m really excited to experience the Paris park !
So exciting! Hope you enjoy your visit ❤️
Thanks for another great video! We are actually driving to Woking from Cornwall today and then continuing onto Ashford for a nights stay. Then we are driving to Disneyland Paris tomorrow for 3 nights and 4 days. It will be our Son's first ever visit to Disneyland 😁 Honestly can't wait. X
We’re so excited for you. Have the most magical time. It’ll be wonderful to experience it through their eyes. ❤️ Thank you for watching x
Thanks for this! Going for my first ever visit in May and I can’t wait!!!
Yay!!! We’re so excited for you Jenny! You’ll be in the fun planning stage. 😊 We hope you have a fantastic time. X
@@sohelenaandmartyn thank you!! I can’t wait to go now! So overwhelming at the thought of having to pack everything and what to bring with me!
Your man's smile kept me smiling the entire video. Great stuff guys
Aw thank you! Glad you enjoyed it! ☺️
Really helpful… thankyou
Thank you so much for watching 😀 x
I’m going in 18 days I’m so excited
Hope you have an amazing time! 😊 thank you for watching x
This was such a great video 😊
Thank you so much 😊 x
Very handy tips! One I found was MagiPark and you can pick 8 attractions and add it to your Lock Screen and it updates on real time. I used premier access and it was super handy for the Spider-Man web ride!
Yes! That’s a great app for the wait times. Did not know about adding to your Lock Screen. That’s a great bit of advice. Thank you so much for watching 😊 x
Your picture wall looks fantastic! Taking a refillable water bottle is an excellent tip, we found that out the hard way first trip! And unfortunately the new shoes one too 🤦♀️
Thanks so much for sharing ❤
Thank you so much for watching 😊 oh no! We feel your pain, we had it too once. uncomfortable shoes and blistered feet in a disney park is not good 😂 x
Thank you for the tip about the dlp tips website. I have watched tons of vlogs ahead of our first trip in june but didn't know about that one and ride info on there!
Hi Emma, so glad we were able to help out a little bit. Hope you have a magical time. Thank you for watching 😊 x
Just in time for me 😊 My first visit is in February ❤
Have a wonderful time, hope the video helps a little 😊 thank you for watching x
Thans for the video! I’m ging for me first time begin januari, so Sith the Christmaseiland event :) I’m gong to buy a fastpass because it’s busy then..
Have the most magical time! Thank you for watching 😊 x
Guys, thanks for the video, can you please do a video where you break down costs, length of time it take to travel by taxi, train... how much to stay for 1 adult amd 2 kids... per night and their ranges.... this sort of stuff
Hiya 😀 Thank you so much for watching. I'm afraid as this is quite a specific request for a trip I think we'd recommend the Disneyland Paris and Magic Breaks website to help you with the price calculations. Hope that helps a little. x
Hello Helena and Martyn, if you enjoy Disneyland Paris I highly recommend visiting Efteling sometime. ✨🍄
Hiya 😊 thank you so much for the recommendation. It’s definitely on our list of places to visit. It looks amazing! X
Thank you for your tips! Very helpful. We will be visiting in December for my daughter's second birthday 🎉 any tips on where to stay? And must see/do for age 2?
Ah that’s so exciting! We love Hotel Cheyenne but all the disney hotels are great. Offsite we like hipark by adagio, it’s basic but near to the parks 😊 fantasyland is great for young children and a good way to meet lots of characters without queuing is the character breakfast at plaza gardens. Disney junior dream factory is a great show for little ones too! Xxx
Good example of holidays: Spain has bank holiday on dece,beer 6th and 8th. The 8th of December is also bank holiday in Italy, Portugal and parts of Germany. In 2022, the 6th and 8th was a Tuesday and Thursday, and all schools in Spain closed either the 5th or the 9th. Either was, it’s a wasted week, especially for smaller children that still aren’t preparing for big, end of term exams. We went that week and, apparently, so did 1/2 of Spain. Every show or queue we were in, we heard people speaking in Spanish. Of course, I don’t ow why I thought I was going to be the only Spaniard there. I even bumped into some of my old neighbors that I hadn’t seen in years….and some old co-workers that I haven’t worked with in over a decade. I think our entire flight was filled with families going to DLP.
Yes, vlogs really help. Especially to see food options as seeing is better than reading the menu.
I learned from you the MagiPark app.I feel it is better than the official app, especially with its latest update. Also,if you are a little crazy (or like preplanning like me), I set the notifications on a daily basis for a good week or 2 before my trip. It’s not necessary now as the MagiPark keeps the analytics of the ride wait times but it’s still helpful to see if there is a pattern in peak times for rides. It’s a shame the app is not a apilable for android. I am an iPhone user but all my friends have android and I always tell them to download the app but they never find it (if anyone has android and they are able to download the app, pls let me know).
Unfortunately mobile order in DLP don’t allow you to make modifications like they do in the US parks. So if you want to remove an ingredient (like onions or a sauce), then I don’t recommend mobile ordering. I hope they change this soon.
Thank you so much for all of the information. This is really beneficial for others to read and to pick up on things. We appreciate you taking the time out to pass on your experiences. ❤️ we’re glad that our videos were able to help you a little with your trip. You just imparted some things that we didn’t know so thank you. 😊 Thank you too for watching x
You make great vlogs ! What I wouldn't do in Disney is the Disney Parade because there is such few interaction with the characters and the public. It's to big.
We tend to sit at the end of the parade. Means we usually end up at the front and we can see the floats close and get a few interactions that way. Thank you so much for your kind comment on the vlogs. We love hearing everyone’s different opinions. It means so much to us 😊 x
With your water bottle tip, bring the concentrated squash aswell, or we brought multipacks or fizzy drinks aswell to take in with us! Obviously easier if your driving haha
Oooh definitely some good tips here. Yeah, driving opens up some great possibilities in terms of food and drink. Thank you so much for watching 😊 x
@@sohelenaandmartyn we only drove the first time because we saw you guys had done it haha. Looked so easy, and the comfort of being in your own car and can get there at your own pace just seemed the best option.
we are going in may for our 30th wedding anniversary this year,so excited,any recomendations for resturants?
Congratulations! 😊 that will be a very special trip. In terms of sit down restaurants, would recommend Captain Jacks in disneyland park. Yacht Club in Newport Bay hotel, Manhattan restaurant in hotel new York the art of marvel and our favourite restaurant would be bistro chez Remy in Walt disney studios. You can find their menus on the disneyland paris app. Thank you so much for watching 😊 x
Nice video. Do you know what time is the firework and the last train that leaves from Disney to the city of Paris?
The time of the fireworks depends on the time of the year and the closing time for Disneyland Paris park. So for example the park closes at 11 today and so the fireworks are at 11 with the Disney d light show ten minutes before. I’m afraid we’re not able to tell you about the train as we haven’t used it. Thank you for watching 😊 x
Thanks for your tips! Considering a trip to DLP with our Paris trip. Would you reco 2 nights in a hotel/air bnb closer to airport by train so we can tag on DLP at end of our trip?
Yes would definitely recommend a trip to DLP, two days would be great as you can explore both parks 😊
Where's your Hundred Acre Print from?! Its great!
Aw thank you! We love that one. It’s from Etsy. Here’s the link 😊 www.etsy.com/uk/listing/1146649126/hundred-acre-woods-winnie-the-pooh?ref=yr_purchases x
Sorry if this has been asked already but can you explain the photopass? Is it one price and you can get pics taken? Love your videos, such a lovely couple. So warm and friendly. Heading to DLP for 3 days in October xx
Hi Kristen 😊 thank you so much for your kind comment. We’re glad you enjoy the videos. As far as our experience of the photopass, we had it included in our infinity annual pass. We went to the emporium on disneyland park to collect it. The photopass in dlp is an actual card. On rides that take a photo you check the photo screen after the ride and remember your number. Then at the desk the cast member scans it and it gets saved to your online photopass account. Our photopass is for a full year so we have a year to download them. There’s also magic shots and some character photos too. I included a link which has some more info. www.disneylandparis.com/en-gb/guest-services/photopass-service/ x
Do you recommend this hotel? Adagio Aparthotel Serris Val d'Europe.
Very handy tips. Thank you. One question. Are selfie sticks and gimbals permitted in the park?
Hiya 😊 thank you so much for watching. I’m afraid there’s an announcement as you walk in saying that selfie sticks are not permitted. I’m not sure about gimbals. Thank you for watching x
If I book 3 nights 4 days package will I be able to get into the parks for all the days so land at dinner and use park straight away then on the day we leave use the park in the morning?
Hiya 😀 yeah, if you’re booking a Disney hotel with tickets you’ll get all the days of your stay. If we get to the hotel before check in we normally get the magic cards from reception and head straight to the park. X
Hi, i have already booked a 1 day 2 parks ticket before watching your video. Can you advise on the best way to visit both parks in a day. Thanks
Thank you for watching 😊 I would say make a plan of what you definitely want to try and get done. It’ll be best to try and get to the parks as they open. Crushers coaster will have a long line most of the day so that’s a possible one to rope drop if doing studios first. Peter pans flight is a good one if starting at Disneyland park. I found this article which may help. www.wandermustfamily.com/disneyland-paris-1-day-2-parks-itinerary/
Yesterday it pretty sad day that Walt Disney World splash mountain closed for good
Bit of disney parks history there. It’ll be interesting to see how it is adapted. 😊 thank you for watching x
Could you use a travel agent like MagicBreaks if we are traveling to Paris from the United States?
I’m not sure, I don’t see why not. They have a great online chat on their website you can ask any questions too 😊
Great video thanks. What's your opinion on the best sit down restaurant for young children? We are DLP veterans, but my sister and her family are going with us for the first time and they have two younger children.
Hey! I would definitely recommend character dining at plaza gardens for children as they can meet all the characters 😊 also the rainforest cafe in Disney village, it’s quite loud as they have a ‘tropical storm’ and also all the animatronic animals but great for children if they don’t mind noise! Hope that helps x
Thanks so much.
@@sohelenaandmartyn i think the rainforest cafe is closed right now they do a lot of New stuff at Disney Village they will open a pub so you will have a little bit of home with you next Time you visit Disneyland paris
On hyperspace and flight force is there somewhere to store your rucksack?
Hi Mairi, they let you take your rucksack on both rides. You can place them under your legs. 😊 hope this helps. Thank you for watching x
In terms od the weeks inbetween the changes that shows are not on would you say they would not be on from the 27th March 2024 do they do Easter theme or something? The main brochure dates state from 30th of March 23 to 27th March 24 does that mean then there will be a few days without shows? 🙈
Thanks for your message! I think those dates are just the dates that the brochure runs from. So there will be a new brochure from 27th March 2024 onwards and they haven't announced what is being offered from then. The parade and fireworks will definitely be on and I'm sure they will do something for Easter and spring. It may be worth emailing Disneyland Paris as they may be able to share more information with you. xx
What time are the parades and fireworks ? How would I find that info out
Hiya 😊 the fireworks at the castle are normally at the closing time of the park. You should be able to find the times on the official disneyland paris app. Hope that helps. Times can vary depending on time of the year. Thank you for watching.
Do you need a physical ticket to enter the park or can you use the app ?
Hiya 😊 we’re not sure if anything has changed and we can’t speak of different operators but when we stayed onsite we had to go to the hotel first to pick up our physical magic passes. I do see people with printed tickets too that they use to get into the park. But not sure on the digital aspect. Thank you for watching 😊 x
Thanks so much for such a helpful video! Also I checked out your channel profile and it made me smile so much to see your pronouns next to your name :) just wanted to share how appreciated that it. You seem like a lovely couple! Xx
We’re super glad that our videos have been helpful. 😀 aw thank you. We appreciate you so much for checking out our channel and watching our videos. ❤️ x
Have you got any trips booked?xx
Hi Olivia, hope you’re well. At the moment we don’t have anything in the diary. Fingers crossed some time this year. Thank you for watching 😊 x
I have to ask do you still require proof of COVID vaccine to enter the park? Would be nice to know a head of time! Some places still do!
Hiya 😊 you don’t need proof of the vaccine at the moment to enter Disneyland Paris. Thank you for watching x
Thank you, have a great day 💗
Do they accept bank cards for purchases as going feb 2024
Hiya 😊 yeah, we use card all the time at DLP. We use a travel money card. We hope that helps. Thank you for watching. X
I’m disabled so I’m lucky that I get the pass 😂
Thank you for watching 😊 x
@@sohelenaandmartyn Your Welcome!
💯 agree about the steps!!!🫠😮💨
😂 certainly get lots of steps in when at Disney. Comfy shoes are a must. Thank you for watching x
Where hiking shoes and hiking socks
Good tip! Definitely want to make sure there’s no blisters on the feet. Lots of walking to do. Thank you for watching x
I recommend HOKA One One shoes personally and any kind of blended sock such as a balega, feetures, Bomas, etc. Definitely not cotton.
I was kinda hoping he did speak this way lol
Thank you for watching x
I was looking for a video on tips and strolled onto this one and was disappointed to see that there was less tips and lots more talking. Kinda got bored, from a very bad attention span and decided to find another video and scroll on from this. Just a friendly tip to not talk as much or maybe make a different video with a more upbeat pace and just get tips done with a small amount of talk. Obviously as I was stating, i am actually REALLY trying not to be hateful as much as poss and to keep this short but kinda got distracted so sorry about that...
Hi Amber, thank you for the message and the honesty. We like to make our videos a bit more chatty and personal instead of just information. Kind of like popping round someone’s house for a cup of tea and a natter. No worries at all if you’re after more information based videos on other channels. Like you say there are lots of them out there. We even check them out too. Thanks for watching. 😊 x
For what it’s worth, I really liked the conversational style on the sofa - great work folks! 😊👍 It’s a bit like a podcast and was perfect for listening to whilst getting stuff done around the house - certainly brightened up the chores!
@@Mark_Gibson Thank you so much 😀❤ x
Going to dl paris for the first time very soon from the USA! Thank you for the tips!
Been watching your vlogs and Just subscribed!
My twin sister and I also have yt channel we do lots of travel and disney (wdw, dcl, dl)
Yt channel: travelwiththetwins kimiandkari
Also love the stars hollow poster!!!!
Hiya 😊 thank you so much for taking time to watch our videos ❤️ we love Gilmore Girls so it was perfect for our gallery wall. Unfortunately I don’t think they sell them anymore. 😭 x
Thank you for all the information I sent you a message on Insta wondering if you would be able to help 🙈
Thank you so much for watching 😊 we’re glad it helped a little x
Is Lineslberty still a thing? Or is there something else now? 🖤❤️💛🤍
Hi Rachael, Lineberty isn’t in use anymore. For the superhero meet and greets there are virtual queues which can be organised on the app. Other than that I believe it’s just case of waiting in line. Hope that helps a little 😊 x
