£9.50 Day Trips To Disneyland Paris for Family Of 4 Including Ferry!!!

17810121330

Comments

  • Just been looking into this and have worked out I can fly from Luton with Easyjet for £200 return. Much more tempting that driving all that way.

    I drove over about 4 years ago and crashed the car in torrential rain. It got bought back to the UK on a truck and we were stuck over there. Insurance paid for us to hire a car from CDG airport which I had to collect which meant I missed 1/2 day in the park!!

    Then took that car to Calais, went over as foot passengers on the ferry and hired another car to bring us back home the next day after spending a night in a hotel in Dover

    Didn't get the car back for 3 weeks - never again.
    We took on Mr T and we won:D

    Shame it had to end, will have to get free stuff from comps now :beer:

    the only thing that bugs me is that if you stay for 1 night you stay the night before you go to the park :( i'd rather get up early & go straight to the park & stay that night but it doesn't give you the option to do it that way

    doesn't the hotel upgrade include a park ticket for a day?

    I was assuming we could book the breakfast inside the park, like we did when we went in october 6 years ago.

    Just cos u cant go lol!
    i been florida its fab but too expensive so worth paris to see my sons face at everything again! :D


    what is just cos I cant go?

    I CAN go if I want to take unpaid leave and pay a mountain of petrol money! lmao. my point was - if you read it again, its a good deal if you are in a position to use it. but just check that the underlying costs do not take it away from being a good deal. remember that come january you will be able to get the 3 day breaks for about £200 or so via eurostar (we did last year!) which included hotel eurostar and 2 day park passes for 4 of us. it would cost us £200 or more in extras to use the sun deal, plus you are having to drive etc etc. bit of a pain in the bum! :cool:

    yes it includes tickets for the day after you've stayed the night if you book for one night

    Hi

    To those who are booking their hotel stay already - how do you know you will get the right dates as I thought you had to give a choice of 3 dates? Can you change the hotel booking if you don't get the date you want?

    Also can you get the ferry on two different days on the offer? The offer appears to be for return ferry travel on one day?
    when you book online you have to pay a deposit. mine was £80 for 2 adults & 2 kids & then i have to send the vouchers in within 14 days with my booking details & the remaining £58 :)
    as for the ferry if you are bookig to stay overnight the ferry will be booked for the time you are out there

    £200 for the 4 of you? That sounds good, was it right to the park entrance?

    My parents mentioned previous deals that come out after christmas, such as free evening meals.

    I'm going to collect the tokens to see what the coach offer is, but we may end up waiting until after christmas, or even saving to go in a year's time.

    My husband's got a bad back and the drive would be bad for him, and I can't drive. I looked at leger coach holidays and the feb half term was around 1k for 2 adults!

    The comment about it not being as good as the other parks.

    I've been to disneyland paris 3 times (in summer as a student, and twice at hallowee'en as a parent) and each time I thought it was amazing. My 5 year old has never been (well, I didn't know I was pregnant last time I was there lol) and he will love it I am sure.

    It's probably not as good as other parks abroad, but I've not been to those so I can't compare. My husband and eldest have been to lots of foreign parks in the 5 years since we last went to paris and they are not so bothered about going to paris again, I have to say.

    I am desperate to go though, I was like a little kid at chrismas when I saw this offer - and my 5 year old will be when we finally get there. I've never thought that parks outside europe were worth my dislike of long journeys, that's just me though.

    i think that i read somewhere on the booking info that it's £49 per person by coach & you cn book that now online if you are planning on staying overnight & it asked if you want to bool selfdrive or coach
