Speaking of meeting characters at random, my recent trip to Disneyland was unforgettable. I was in line for Indiana Jones and as I was walking, looking down on my phone, Indiana Jones appeared out of nowhere and stopped the woman in front of me. He said to her, "I like your shirt" then fist bumped her, and started walking away backwards smiling at her. I was in complete shock! As he was walking away I pointed at him with the biggest smile on my face and said, "INDY!" He turned to me, tipped his hat and said, "How you doin' pal?" I had to keep on walking as I was holding up the line but we exchanged smiles and waves and he went off. People around me were saying just how cool that was. That made my day as I'm a HUGE Indiana Jones fan. Absolutely magical. I'll never forget that.
That is absolutely awesome! I’m so glad you got experience some of that Disney magic.
We are normally Disney world goers, but planning a Disneyland trip for next September. You are turning into my favorite channel for Disneyland information, and I'm hoping that you can answer a question for me. My husband and I have two toddlers when we go one will just turn 4, and the other will be 2. Although we are both excited to ride with our girls, my question is can we combine the use of single Rider, and Rider swap? If we do decide to ride a taller height requirement ride for example the Incredibles coaster could we do single Rider, and then do Rider swap. I use that particular ride as an example, because I know neither one of the girls will be tall enough to ride it with us, so we would just be riding alone. Also how does that work with Genie Plus? Because if we decide to make the purchase would we also need to get it for our four-year-old, or would genie plus even be worth it for our family to buy?
@@sarahrussell7305 So Single Rider and Rider Swap are two separate features that can’t be combined. If you want the Fastpass that Rider Swap gives for the second rider, you’d have to go through the regular Standby line.
However, two rounds of Single Rider will almost undoubtedly be faster for those rides with single rider lines. The one exception being Incredicoaster. It always has a long Single Rider line because there are fewer instances where single riders are needed.
As to Genie+, yes, your 4 year old will need it as a ticketed guest. I think there are enough rides on Genie+ that she can do that it should still be worth it to get.
Your two year old, who doesn’t have a ticket, won’t need Genie+ but will still be allowed on those rides that she is tall enough for.
For genie+ rides they aren’t tall enough for, both adults can go through separately.
For genie+ rides only your 2 year old isn’t tall enough for, that’s where you’ll have a bit of a dilemma. You could ask when you enter the line. They might offer you a rider swap for your 4 year old so she can ride again with the adult who sat out with your 2 year old.
@@SoCalDisneyDad thank you so much for your response. I really appreciate you taking your time, definitely my favorite Disneyland channel..
I've been to both recently and I agree Disneyland is better. The hotel proximity, the two parks and hopping ability, and shorter lines due to more rides per park are something that I forgot about prior to our Florida trip. It didn't take long waiting for busses and standing in line for 40 minutes to get real old real quick. Plus downtown Disney being walkable as well is really nice.
Last time I went to WDW I stayed at All Star Sports (because it was the cheapest) and the buses worked decently well there.
We usually stay at Caribbean Beach for the skyliner, but when you want to go to a non-skyliner park, you might be waiting forever for a bus because it fills up at other stations and never even makes it to your stop.
Very annoying.
Disneyland is easy to get around. You can walk back to your hotel and drop off souvenirs, use the bathroom, take a quick rest, etc., and be back in the park super quick. The socal weather is awesome, you can be outside all day long from start to finish if you want. Rides they have Alice in wonderland, roger rabbit, Mr toad, Pooh bear ride complete with heffalumps and woozles dream sequence , etc. plus the food Disneyland has tigger tails and raspberry Coca Cola. Also the history, Walt built the park and was there (even had an apartment). The snack Doritos was invented at Disneyland (the predecessor to rancho del zocallo). So the history is there. I like the Disneyland castle too. I went on a tour, and I think they said the paint for the castle (some specialty paint for the 100th anniversary shield was like 2 grand a gallon-it does some sort of aurora borealis effect when light hits it
It does! It’s magnificent!!!! Magical doesn’t even begin to describe it!! 😮🥰
As a California native who has lived in Oregon for 15 years, my inner SoCal girl is getting a little ego and beaming with pride. 😂 Their castle may be bigger, but ours was first! Lol Thanks for the fun video and giving me a little hometown pride. 😊
Agreed, same here. 😊
Seeing walking vids of the 2 parks on YT somewhat surprised me. I've long had a vague sense of newer & bigger (big-sized castle!) being a bit better than (or at least as good as) older & smaller. But a certain charm of the original park compared with newer ones comes through in vids. As for another Disney park, I recall a person from Tokyo telling me yrs ago that DL in Anaheim was more friendly (don't recall her exact words---but something like that). But since overall aspects of the MK in Tokyo is patterned after the MK in Orlando, I now sort of get what she meant.
@@gridleyDisneyland has an energy Disney world just never will, if you want quantity you go to Disney world but if you want quality you go to disneyland. In my opinion at least :)
I’ve been to all the Disney parks except for Shanghai and although each park has its claim-to-fame, Disneyland is still the one that is peak Disney magic.
Disneyland feels like the best version of a family-owned theme park where “everybody knows your name”. It’s due to the chill vibe of the park and its guests. The other parks, albeit very impressive and fun, just seem a little ‘corporate’ to me. Especially WDW.
They y feel corporate how I’m curious?
We’ve been eyeing up Tokyo Disney for our first international park. Who knows when we will do it, but that’s where we want to go first I think.
Hahahahaha loved how you didn’t say “I’m not gonna say that Disneyland is better because that’s where Walt walked,…” (but said it).
Had to. 😉
Unfortunately the monorail will be down for a while due to its proximity to construction in Downtown Disney. I love taking the monorail into the park, but I would highly recommend that anyone going for the first time to go through the front gate to get the reveal when going through the tunnel.
Agree! Just got back from Disneyland last week ( my third trip). I went to to Disney World 5 years ago. It takes so long to get anywhere there and the humidity. The only thing I prefer of Disney World is more affordable Disney property hotels and Pandora. But DCA has Cars Land. :)
I’ve often said the same thing. We need some value Disney hotels at Land. 😂 I’ve never stayed on property here because they’re basically all Deluxes and I’ve never stayed Deluxe.
I really enjoyed the comparison of both wdw and disneyland. I only went once to wdw, and the humidity and heat just killed it for my son. To this day, he refuses to go back. I love your impressions. My favorite is Mater, but I'm Loving Gollum!
Best time to go to WDW if the heat is an issue is November. It hasn’t gotten too cold yet, it’s Christmas time (at Disney), and it’s slightly off season (not that Disney has an off season now).
Never go to WDW during the summer! I live in Texas and am used to the heat and humidity but always go during Thanksgiving or Christmas break when the weather is perfect.
Christmas was great when I went
Love it! You’re an expert in both parks and I agree completely! One that you didn’t mention is that early entry in Disneyland is a huge benefit with zero lines and very few people so we get up to 4 rides before the park opens. That does not happen at Disneyworld because everyone gets early entry there so it’s not helpful.
I completely forgot about Disney World’s early entry. 😂 You’re absolutely right, nearly every guest is a resort guest, so half the day’s reservations show up for early entry.
I couldn’t agree more! I have been to both more times than I can count and you are absolutely correct. The Kali River Rapids ride at Animal Kingdom is a full minute shorter than Grizzly
I’ve read that most ride times in Florida are shorter. I read that from the team that publishes the Disney World planning guide.
The cast members are better at Disneyland.
nope
The cast members at Disneyland are just magical! They roam freely and interact with everyone in such a "real life" way. One vlogger (from WDW) said it's like the characters live at Disneyland but are visiting WDW.
I had a hard time finding cast members,when I visited. They were fine,
answered my questions.
Both coasts are fine
Some annoyed and pleasant.
@@Laura_G Thought you were talking about non characters
That's why after waiting for more than 40 years, we finally went to Disneyland Anaheim, Ca. We don't save for Disney World. While I resides in Asia, I don't even bother to go to Disney Tokyo, Shanghai, Hong Kong or even Paris. We want to go to the ORIGINAL Disneyland. Can't wait to meet you there, Trevor and family 🎉❤
Ps. But in 2022 we barely met any characters, perhaps because it's still COVID. We also contracted Covid after Disneyland 😂 but it's worth it😊. Definitely will go again in June 2024 ❤️
Last week at DCA we were walking past Guardians of the Galaxy ride and to my right Captain America starts walking side by side with us while talking to my kids in the strollers for like a whole minute before ducking into a side door. Insane!!! ❤
Addressing the guests at each park - Disneyland and DCA are mostly comprised of local guests who appreciate the fact they can visit weekly, whereas WDW is mostly tourists who feel they’ve paid a ton of money and will not return soon and there might be a sense of entitlement there. Plus, as you had mentioned, the weather is miserable (hot and humid through the night) in FL compared to CA.🤣 At least it cools down in CA in the evenings.
I imagine this is a big part of it. It’s like the guy who was arrested for ignoring temp checks at Disney Springs a few years ago. His justification for not getting arrested was “I spent $15,000 to be here”
@@SoCalDisneyDad yikes!😵💫
Coming from the Midwest where everyone assumes California is full of hmmmmmmm how do I say this, people who think and live differently to a point where we can’t relate. This is not true! We have absolutely loved our time in Orange County and at Disneyland! There is diversity but it’s beautiful! I feel like the evenings in the parks are better because the locals come in and we get to talk to people who really know the area and appreciate the happy and “magical” atmosphere of Disney. We’ve been here for 10 days. We’ve been to the parks, baseball games, tours, and just been out and about and the locals on So Cal are great! I’ve also been here for work a couple of times on my own the past few years. Don’t believe everything you read or see. Also, I recently spent time in another (which shall remain nameless) big city on the east coast. The only people who would talk to you or even make eye contact were those in the service industry hoping for a tip. I know every area has their struggles and strengths, but SoCal wins for hospitality in my book!
My good sir, The Matterhorn has the Abominable Snowman, Exepedition Everest has Yeti! 😉 (per the ride description on the Disneyland website). I love your videos! I have been sharing them with my family, as they are pros at WDW, but a lot of them have never been to Disneyland, and we have a big trip in September!
Thanks for pointing that out!
100 percent agree!!!! Disneyland is the original!!!
Just got back from our disney/dca trip yesterday. Never been to Disneyworld, but really I thin I don't have to. Disney Anaheim , incredible and always will be!!
It’s worth it if you’ve never been, just to experience their unique lands and attractions. But 90% of the time if both coasts share a ride, the Disneyland version is better.
Not always the case if you include the queue as part of the attraction because their queues are way better. But about the only ride I can think of where the actual ride is better is Dumbo, and that’s only because they have two of them so it moves the line faster.
EPCOT is well worth a visit if you're in the area.
@@FleshGolem420 Of course, as a big disney theme park fan, I know its a MUST for our family.
PSA the Disneyland monorail is closed for refurbishment until the end of August! So if you’re planning a summer trip, I wouldn’t count on having it as a transportation option
I hadn’t realized. Thanks for the heads up. It was literally just down for refurb like three months ago. That’s frustrating for guests.
Take that Florida! IMO magic kingdom to me just felt like a cheap carbon copy compared to Disneyland. Oh and no New Orleans square wtf!
Yeah. They have Liberty Square, which is about the only good thing it has is Sleepy Hollow.
Though technically I guess their Haunted Mansion is there too.
Disneyland truly is. 100 percent agree. W take.
I couldn’t agree more. There is something quite special about Disneyland. Bigger is not always better.
I never would have guessed it was better than WDW til I made my first trip to Disneyland this year. I agree 1000%
I concur 👍 aka agreed 👍 with you socal Disney dad.
thank you trevor ! i was so disappointed in Florida’s tower of terror , when it was over i was “is that it?” , i just love disneyland and California Adventure because they are packed with great attractions
Amy prefers the version in Florida, only because she doesn’t like the bobbing up and down Guardians does at the various scenes.
I much prefer guardians.
We got back from our Disneyland vacation a few days ago! We rode the Carousel with Peter Pan and Wendy!
I agree with everything you said, Traver. Something about Disneyland. It's special. And to be where it all began with an amazing man named Walt Disney who started it all.
WDW is special.
Yup Disneyland. The original. Not an oversized bloated imitation. Worlds castle may be bigger but ours is the original. The one Walt envisioned. 😎
Disneyland has more fairy dust with it being very connected to the magic maker himself, Walt.
The fact that Disneyland is smaller but has more attractions than Magic Kingdom: 56 vs 42
Was at both WDW and DL in the last 6 months and 100% agree! Most of DL’s versions of the classic / E ticket rides are just better, although I do like both ToT and GotG Mission Breakout for different reasons. I find DL to be more manageable and relaxing since it’s easier to take breaks and it’s not as crazy crowded, which likely contributes to people being more chill and positive. Only things I don’t prefer at DL v WDW is the $$$$$ Disney hotels, the stress around how to ride Peter Pan (unlike WDW where it has LL), and its lack of proper amphitheater seating for Fantasmic. WDW’s Disney Magic Express was great too. But I would easily skip all those for an overall better parks experience at DL!! Thx for a great video!
We are here at Disneyland this week for the first time ever. My kids (now young adults, 2/3 are here with me) and I have been to Disney World a total of five times and we had 10 day passes for each of those trips, so I feel like I’m a Disney World pro! I have to say I agree with every single one of your points. I have really enjoyed our three days so far and I love how close together everything is. It really is within walking distance. The only problem is I get confused in Disneyland because I think I know where I am, and then I realize this park may look the same but it’s not. :-) The only thing that I have found I think is better at Walt Disney World are the table service restaurant options. I agree with you on the quick service, though for sure! Love your videos, this trip would not have been the same without all of the planning you helped me do.
We agree with WDW having the advantage with table service meals too. And we sometimes get turned around in Magic Kingdom because it’s similar but not quite the same as Disneyland.
I enjoyed Disneyland more than DisneyWorld/the Magic Kingdom
Disneyland IS better than Walt Disney World. the parks are closer together, they have more attractions, it's Walt's original, feels less rushed and is still very much a family park, istead of a MASSIVE themepark factory. that being said, I love both, Disneyland just more.
We were seated just to the right when you walked by Mickey’s PhilharMagic theater and saw you filming! Love the vids, we watched a few when getting ready for our trip.
That’s awesome. Hope you had a great trip!
Disneyland is by far my forever favorite! ❤❤
When we took our young daughter to MK in WDW we enjoyed many of the great queues (Winnie the Pooh, Peter Pan, Dumbo, Seven Dwarfs Mine Train, which she absolutely loved and kept her entertained/cooled off, but now that she is a little older-Disneyland/DCA was the better option for a recent trip we took to celebrate the 100 year anniversary of the company. We also took past trips to the other 3 parks in WDW and they all had features for little kids that our daughter loved (the Sea , Journey Into Imagination with Figment, Frozen Ever After, Toy Story Land, Festival of the Lion King show, the various play areas, live animals, sing along music shows, plenty of character meet and greets, etc. etc). We haven’t been back to WDW for a few years now, but want to plan another trip sometime in a year or two to be able to enjoy more of thrilling attractions that she missed out on. So we really like aspects of both Disneyland and WDW, but agree with every point you mentioned about Disneyland.
Another benefit to Disneyland is the ease of using Genie + and that it includes all your photo pass pictures. At Disneyland, you can get Lighting Lane Reservations back-to-back, so easily vs at WDW a lot of reservations are gone very quickly and/or pushed out so far out time wise. And since you mentioned that Disneyland has a moving yeti (poor Expedition Everest), they also have Mr. Toad’s Wild Ride and 2 Alice and Wonderland rides (not just the Tea Cups).
Many of the queues ARE better at WDW primarily because of space and learning from Disneyland. That is a major plus for them.
So true.
Overall it might not be better because it’s hard to beat 4 parks with 2 parks BUT, I definitely think Disneyland is better than Magic Kingdom, way better
Rides done better in Disneyland:
Space Mountain
Pirates of the Caribbean
Small world
Big Thunder
Unique rides:
Matterhorn
Indiana
More for less:
You get Star Wars inside Disneyland, instead of having to go to Hollywood Studios, and now also Mickey’s and Minnie’s runaway train
Disneyland has more rides so it’s a better value
And of course, it’s the original
Over at DCA, well it used to suck now it rocks. Cars is a millions times better than Test Track. I do prefer the classic Tower of Terror over Guardians though, but it’s not a million times worse than the original.
And yeah less wait times because Disneyland has so many rides
So Disneyland resort is better than Magic Kingdom + Hollywood Studios, definitely. It’s Animal Kingdom and Epcot that really beat out Disneyland resort.
Thank you
The other major benefit in your "More for less" category is that Fantasmic! is in Disneyland. So, you can watch the castle fireworks and then walk over to Tom Sawyer Island to see Fantasmic! 45 minutes later. Or, you can just watch the first Fantasmic! show and then stay for the duplicate water projection for the fireworks also. That isn't possible to do at Disney World.
I've just been to both DisneyWorld and Disneyland. In my opinion i enjoyed Disneyworld far more
I love Disneyland. I am a Magic Key holder. However, WDW is the size of a county. The immersion is insane. I LOVE Epcot, and walking between The Grand Floridian and the Polynesian at sunset is an experience. The Skyliner provides gorgeous views of Florida.
Because it's twice the size of Manhattan, it also takes longer to get from point A to B, and also costs more money to see everything
Love this!! 👏👏 😄 Thank you so much! 🤗
Makes sense that California would have the better of the parks.
The characters walking around “in the wild” is something I remember from my childhood (70s/80s) at WDW… I do miss that, and love to see it still happening at DL. I feel like maybe they went to roping characters off into queued meetings at WDW because that location gets such big crowds from all over the world, whereas DL is more intimate and more of a “locals park.” (And, as was mentioned in the video, there are unfortunately a lot more instances of rude or inappropriate guest behavior on a regular basis at WDW).
Awesome video, we recently went to Disneyland and we were so close to going to WDW, glad we didn’t! I CAN NOT WAIT until Disneyland Forward gets the green light to start!!!!!
I don't think it ever will. Disney doesn't have the money right now
I 100% prefer Disney World. The hotels are WAY cheaper and busses are free to go ANYWHERE in the entire Disney world property. Plus there is so much more to do in Disney World. When I go to Disney land, I can finish everything in maybe two days. When I go on vacation, I wanna go for a week. I would be absolutely bored out of my mind if I stayed at Disney land for more than two days 😂. On the other hand, I wouldn’t be able to do everything in Disney world even in 5 days, not including hotel hopping or Disney springs, which is 10x bigger with 10x more things to do than downtown Disney. Sorry, I’m gonna have to disagree.
Things you missed on why Disneyland is better:
Our Train goes through its a small world like as if its a model train like in Disney's vision
Our train has more to see including the Grand Canyon and Primeval world.
Our Tiana's Bayou Adventure will make more sesne because the movie takes place in New Orleans and next door is New Orleans Square
Additional Note: if Disneyland didn't exist, neither would Doritos
Absolutely spot on!
We went to Disney World last year and this year we will be in LA and were wondering if going to Disneyland was worthy after having gone to DW… this video gave me the little push I needed to buy the tickets 🤩
I hope you have an awesome time! Disney World is still my go-to vacation destination (out of all other possible vacations, though Hawaii this year [instead of WDW] was pretty awesome), but there’s just something special about Disneyland that makes me glad we live on this coast and not the other.
That's an ignorant question, of course DL is worthy. The original is usually the best.
I agree completely. WDW has less rides in four park than the Disneyland Resort has in two. I was so disappointed when I went to WDW and realized the ride times there were really long on the most popular rides at HS, AK and EPCOT because there are only around 10 rides each in those parks. And only a few of the rides in each of those parks are really great so everyone is in line for those three to five rides in those parks. Disneyland does a much better job dispersing people, and has shorter wait times because there are so many more options in each park. My friend told me once that if Disneyland had something like EPCOT she would never have to go to WDW. I agree. I love WDW, but Disneyland is just so much more accessible and way less work! I like Disneyland Paris more than WDW for the same reason and Hyperspace Mountain, and Big Thunder Mountain are far superior in that park than either American park, and their Tower of Terror is definitely the creepiest.
I can get to meet and hug Nick Wilde at Disneyland. Disneyland is automatically the best for that reason ❤️
The tiny castle always makes me laugh hahaha
I like to think of our little castle as the matriarch of all the Disney castles. It’s like the little mama castle (short in stature, but mighty) and all the other castles are her children that grew taller than her. 😂 But our little mama is still amazing and can stand up to any of the newer ones.
I agree with most but I liked A Small World without Disney characters. Great vid
DLs Small world is 15 minutes long, has more scenes, and has a grander exterior facade, versus WDWs un-updated 8 minute version.
I 100 percent agree with you! When I went to Disney World, I was like..I can get these rides at home without walking so much in the humid heat, dying as I was comparing the parks and thinking Disneyland's version of everything was so much more magical and better to me. But at Disney World the cast members do treat you like you are actually on vacation, they are super nice. Disneyland cast members are mostly wonderful but at times you can get rude or very indifferent service. I had this happen at Bengal BBQ and Mint Julep Bar, where I felt like a number instead of a valued guest. No thank you. Or your welcome, just get your food and go. The tone is different, the attitudes are different. But Disneyland also has the history and the presence of Walt. So I do agree Disneyland is the best to me.
I live in Vegas and love that Disneyland is right next door and yes it is better than Disney World for sure
Awesome!!!! I love it!
Columbialand is a great place to live.
Churro's way better on the Left Coast
Ain't that the truth! We do have way more authentic Mexican being so close to the border.
@@SoCalDisneyDadthis brings back some good memories 👍🏼
I'm going to Disneyland for the first time in one month. Your videos really helped me! Thanks for your amazing videos. Greets from a little city in Chile!
The first visit is always so special. Enjoy!
My kids have taken surprisingly long walks with the characters at DL. It's definitely a nice touch that's kind of hard to imagine anywhere else. That happens a lot more than it used to when I worked there back in the day.
Me And My Asian Soulmate (Maya-Minnie-Chu) Went To The Walt Disney Resort In Orlando, Florida In July 2018 And To The Disneyland Resort In Anaheim, California In June 2022.
So which was better
WDW is a bigger footprint but that does not mean value added. The compact footprint of Disneyland is immersive in such a magical way and much easier to navigate. Personally I think the planning of WDW was off. They started with a lot of space so everything was spread out. But paying to walk in the heat and humidity through a lot of landscaping (even though nicely designed) is just not the same level of enjoyment. WDW was clearly built to be "all inclusive" and handle huge numbers of people, but in doing so it lost charm as well as attention to detail (quality of rides, food, the characters free roaming etc.). A huge castle is just a bigger prop. Once Disneyland/DCA gets a Pandora experience - the only thing I miss - the west coast Disney package will be extra wonderful.
I'm curious to see what the Pandora thing really is. I have a feeling it's going to be a movie in one of the abandoned theaters and that's it. But if they manage to create a land somewhere, somehow, I will be much impressed.
I personally never been to Disney world but I looked at their map and it seems like they're all over the place. I got a headache just by looking at everything. lol!! I'll stick with Disneyland and in all reality Disneyland it's still really big.
I know right like why is there roads to get to the different parks😭 at first I thought it was a huge sidewalk or trail but roads are just outrageous 😭
❤❤❤❤😂😂😂
Alright but let’s compare your world showcase with the Epcot world showcase- oh… wait
😂Disneyland is still better than every other Disney park in Orlando
for anyone whose been here, are the fast passes worth it?
i've never been to disney world so i don't have first hand experience,but i have seen plenty of videos of the park (magic kingdom). the only 2 things i see better is they have the peoplemover and carousel of progress. two disneyland originals. other than that i love our little park in southern california! and yes i will mention,the only disney park built and enjoyed by the man himself.
off topic... 13:00 she's a mother of two? bravo!!
You can cherry pick any number of things to make your point. For example...16 Reasons Disney World is better than Disneyland: Guardians of the Galaxy. Expedition Everest, Kilimanjaro Safari, Carousel of Progress, Maharaja Jungle Trek, Gorilla Falls, Living with the Land, Spaceship Earth, World Showcase (10 countries), Test Track, Mission: Space, Indiana Jones Stunt Spectacular, Slinky Dog Dash, Pooh's Adventure, Seven Dwarfs Mine Train. And, 18 more hotel choices - all with transportation to any of the Disney World parks. Both locations have advantages and disadvantages. Oh, BTW, I was at Epcot last week and saw Alice in Wonderland take a young girl by the hand to show her the English gardens.
As a neutral party (not a California or Florida native) I have to agree 100%. The only real thing I can think of that Florida has over DL is that there are more affordable hotel options. Staying at a resort hotel really adds to the experience and the magic and it's a shame that California DL only has expensive, cost prohibitive options.
I completely agree! I have never stayed on-site at DL because of this.
For a close-to-magic experience, I recommend staying at the Anaheim Majestic Garden. It's one of two hotels that are grandfathered into being allowed to run their own shuttle busses instead of using the ART. Plus, the castle theming and the fact they have their own princess (granted, a cheap Disney knockoff) really contributes to the magical vibe of going to Disney.
Disney World was built for very large crowds, it was designed to maximize profits as much as possible. Disneyland was built to make people have a good time with their friends/family, or just by yourself. It's just much more cozier, things are closer together, so you don't need to walk that much. Disney World is bigger that makes you walk a lot, people get tired and then they get frustrated, and so on a so forth. Also, the heat. The heat in Florida raises anxiety levels, and lowers cognition(is my schools have air conditioning). That and being tired from walking a lot, makes people frustrated, unhappy and rude as you just mentioned. At Disneyland it's also cooler, temperature wise. This makes people a bit more relax. During Winter time, the cold makes Disneyland is more Magical.
I dont like floridas ToT compared to paris. I dont like that it moves forward it takes u out of it. We are in a lift we shouldn’t move forward lol just up and down. But paris changed the videos u see in between each drop and its less scary. 🙄
Im finally going to disneyland august 24th for the first time since 2017 and before that it was 2005 so i was 7 and remember almost nothing so i dont really count it
The dining at Disney World is far better. Disneyland could use 5-6 sit down places in the parks. I’d love a jungle cruise skipper canteen.
On number of options, I agree with you. On quality of food? I still feel like Disneyland has WDW beat. As far as IN PARK options go (excluding Signature restaurants). I know that’s a lot of qualifications. 😂
And our quick service is better no contest. IMO.
@@SoCalDisneyDad world showcase alone has better quick service. I also think the WDW has better CMs. At Disneyland I always see a bunch of kids working there playing on their phones- the staff at Disney World takes much more pride in their work.
Though it’ll be nice to be next to everything when we get back to DL in October. Disney World is just exhausting with how big it is.
I'll never forget our last trip. My daughter got made up at Bippity Boppity Boutique, she dressed up as Aurora. As she walked out, the REAL Aurora walk up, and grabbed her hand, and said "Let's go to the wishing well!" I choked up immediately, and it made our trip. ❤ I've always been a Disneyland kid, and haven't even had a slight desire to see WDW.
"We have the better version of the Tower of Terror" hahahahahaha what??? No dude. No You don't 😅
Having ridden both multiple times, I believe that yes, yes we do.
Oh and also WDW does have more rides than Disneyland and that's not even counting the 2 water parks.
@@victorlazo238 Magic Kingdom has 21 (that does not include shows. I’m not counting shows at Disneyland either), EPCOT has 11, Hollywood Studios has 9, and Animal Kingdom has 8. That’s a total of 49 rides.
Disneyland has 34 and DCA has 18. For a combined total of 52 rides.
@@SoCalDisneyDad I'm only giving points to Disneland because Joe Rohde was behind the retheming but nothing beats the eeriness and unsettling ambiance of the WDW Tower of Terror. I consider it a classic even after 20+ years. Let's see how the Guardians retheme pans out in 10 years.
I believe WDW has 53 rides not counting shows, which I consider attractions as well. And as I said, WDW count should include the 2 water parks. @@SoCalDisneyDad
So we recently went to Disneyland and DCA and we had two families together with a total of 10 people. It was very difficult trying to make everyone happy. Any advice you can give when traveling with a large number would be appreciated:)
Yes! I've done that plenty of times with extended family vacations. We had 13.
The key is being flexible. So for us, one family was always really late. The rest of us arrived for rope drop, and the third family said they would, but then were always a half an hour behind. So we just left them and went about our day and eventually we linked up around Noon. So I'd say let smaller units break off to do their favorite things in the morning and then link up for lunch and stay together after during the busier times of the day.
Additionally, having everyone create a priority list such as a top ride, a preferred dining location, etc and then do your best to make sure everyone's highest priority is met. That way everyone got to do the one thing they couldn't visit Disneyland without doing.
For dining reservations, you might need to break apart into smaller groups to get reservations, then when you check-in, just tell the cast members you're one big party and see if they can sit you all together. If they can't, then maybe they can keep your tables as close together as possible.
My advice is to NOT travel with a large group, but if you must, Slit up into smaller groups and go do your own thing, but maybe pick a time and a place to meet up for Dinner.
I just got back from Disneyland after having taken multiple trips in recent years to Disney World.
You can keep the Matterhorn. I think the Yeti is the only ok part of that attraction. The seats are hard to get into and out of and the jerky track caused multiple people in front of me to proclaim "my back!" Loudly.
However the food at Disneyland is so much better than Disney World so that gains you major points.
Disney world tickets for brits are £500 for 14 days so its not so bad but ur having to spend loads on hotels and food etc
I would tend to agree that Disneyworld has much more rude guests. It’s not just the guest, I thought the cast members was rude as well. My wife and I took our family of 5 and everyone agreed Disneyland still has magic.
Both disney parks are one star out of five. 1/5 rating. People just go after brand name 🙄 😒 . Not going back ever again. 👎
For those with the chance of getting the Disney Premier Visa with Chase
You get a few additional perks like access to exclusive character Meet and Greet.
I’ll be missing the haunted mansion overlay by days ffff😢
With all the woke bullshit disney is doing, anywhere is better than disneyland
I was burned out on Disney by 15. Our school system took yearly field trips to the park
Disney World was a disappointment to me after enjoying Disneyland. The rides seemed longer, the food was better, Hotels were superior for the cost and much more accessible, everything the video moderator had to say and more.
Also space mountain has overlays here absolutely love hyperspace mountain.
Oh my gosh your impressions make me laugh 😂
I’ve never been to World and we’d really like to someday just to see what it’s like. But Disneyland is special to me. It’s the park I visited when I was a kid, and I feel like you can feel Walt’s presence there. It’s just magical
I haven't been to Disneyland in 6 years. I've been thinking about visiting again to revisit some old memories, like the monsters ink ride was my favorite and my first ride
My friend in Australia calls the posters in between the two parks "shower curtains''
We rode the carousel with Peter Pan and Wendy and then Peter asked if we wanted to walk with them. They held hands with our children and walked them over to the wishing well to make wishes. It was an unforgettable experience
7:16 that emblem suspiciously looks like a Keyblade.
Not having to travel to get to each park or downtown is the best part. Just steps away. Insane
I haven’t even been to WDW and I already know ours is better. It’s the OG and it’s way cleaner to begin with.
I would agree, Disneyland & DCA plus the surrounding area is just such a good collection.
Disneyland is more of a laid back place and more of a local park
I hear no lies. But lest the rest of the world keep thinking bigger is better.
I like both people tell me why you hate
You should do more Universal Studios Hollywood content! It's one of my favorite places to go with my family to have a good time.
I have two new videos coming out soon.
It’s unfortunately too far away for anything more often than about once every 3 months.
Love this guy and his family
I'll find out in October. This was definitely interesting, and I learned some things. One of the good things about WDW, I'm a passholder and get merch discounts. There will be no discounts for us in DL. That's going to hurt a little. Lol.
So what's the verdict?
wdw takes wayyyyy more planning and saving up for if ur a brit like me
WDW takes more planning for anyone. 😂 But I know you all usually visit for a full two weeks or longer so understand your point.
What’s the difference between SeaWorld San Diego and SeaWorld in Orlando Florida
They are both crap
