Euro Disney?

Question

Im going to Euro Disney next week for a few days, staying in the Explorers Hotel and was wondering does anyone have any warning or must do's while there.

Answer 1

prob going to get 2 million thumbs down but i think the parades are s**+te. you dont say if you are bringing kids but anyway, the main thing is to get fastpasses to the rides that have the facility. the queues are brutal. when you are checking in, ask if you can get breakfast in the park. its free if you are staying in the disney hotels but i dont know about the explorers and kyriad etc. you are in the park an hour earlier if you do this and you get to meet the characters aswell, cos they go around the tables. the drinks and sweets and sandwiches are cheaper in the train station than in the park. you cant miss the station. get an autograph book as soon as you can so you can keep them all together. thats all i can remember at the minute.

Answer 2

Do as much as you can and have fun.....it's a great place!, dont miss the daytime and evening parades they are worth watching!

Answer 3

beware the autograph hunters!!  unbeliveably you will get grown ups push you/your kids aside if they dont want to miss autographs from certain characters. very annoying.

apart from that a fantastic place. would recommend booking a character meal if you can afford it. great chance to meet/get autographs with out any pushing or shovin. if you cant afford to book an actual character meal book well in advance to go to cafe' mickey in the disney village. we booked 3 days ahead and although it wasn't classed as a character meal tons of the characters are walking around and come to your table while you eat!! great fun. be prepared to pay a lot for any meals!!  don't miss the buzz lightyear ride,great for all ages.check out parade times and get there very early.most of all have a great time. x

Answer 4

take warm clothing as it can be chilly this time of year and be prepared to queue and get there early for the rides but you will love it

Answer 5

Don't miss the parades as the others have said, they are great!!!  Also I planned our trip when we went there, as my son was only 4 I made sure we went to the areas more suitable for him first and then if we had time had a look around the others on the last day.  Be warned the food is expensive and not great be prepared to not eat particulary heathly while there, a meal in Mickey's Cafe is worth it as thats where lots of caracters hand out, my son had his 4th birthday meal in there and all the characters sang Happy Birthday to him I got really emotional, sad I know !!  Have fun its a magical place xx

Answer 6

I have taken my daughter to Disney Land in Paris twice and we loved it. You don’t mention the ages of your group that are going with you but if you have children under 12 I would suggest you go on all the rides in Fantasy Land  especially the Peter Pan Ride.

In frontier Land, the Thunder Mountain ride is good and you must visit the Haunted Mansion. To be honest all the rides are first class and worth going on.

The food is very expensive in the park but for a snack, I would recommend Casey’s Corner they serve typical snack foods but their Giant Hotdogs are the best I have ever tasted. It is all typical junk food unless you pay more to go in the eateries. I used to pack myself up for the day from the Hotel breakfast selection. and have a meal in the evening.

Make sure you stand near the curbs etc really early before any parade starts as it does get extremely busy and believe me the adults don’t move out of the way for the children to see better. My daughter would of missed seeing the parade if it hadn’t of been for a German woman literally moving some adults out of the way for me. The daytime and night time parade is not to be missed. If you also stay in the park until midnight, the fire work display is fantastic.

My advice wear comfy shoes and take warm clothing expect queuing but use your fast pass if you get one. Don’t exspect to see everything so make a sort of plan for what you want to see etc every day. Hope you have a brilliant time as we did.

Answer 7

You should pre-book your evening meals when you get to the hotel becuase you won't necessarily get a table just cos you're a guest a the hotel and you don't want to be queuing at the burger places.  Also if you're going to the parades get a good place on the kerb/pavement in plenty of time because it fills up.  Have a good time - it is a brilliant place!!!
