    Hi,

    Looking at going to DisneyLand Paris just after my daughter 3rd birthday. Was looking at the 15th April 2008 to the 18th (dates flexibles but has to beafter the 10th when it's her bday) both my husband, me and my daughter.

    Departure from London (would rather take the Eurostar as I'd rather avoid traveling for ages with an excited 3 year old!)

    Was quoted £576 by Expedia for 2 night at the Dream Castle hotel + Eurostar (looking at any hotels on the resort)

    Also entrance to the park for 2 days could be included.

    Thanks

    We're a bit undecided on where and when to go, so I've got two quotes and am looking for someone to beat them. Each is for two persons sharing.

    The Quote itself: £270pp
    Who the quote is from: Broker
    Is there a booking fee: no
    The Tour Operator/Airline/Hotel: British Airways,
    The departure Airport/Post: Gatwick
    The Holiday Dates: 03/09/07 - 07/09/07 (these are the cheapest dates we could find, but four nights between 01/09/07 and 08/09/07 is what we're after, as cheap as possible)
    The number of people travelling (inc kids ages): 2 Adults
    The Hotel (or * if it’s allocate on arrival): Castle House and Embassy Luxury Apartments - Studio 1 bed (But we'd take any nice 3* in central Reykjavik)
    The Board (self catering/half board etc): Quote for was self catering, but wouldn't mind something else if it's a hotel
    Any specific requirements: The quote didn't include any tours, but if the Golden Circle tour could be thrown in, it would be great. ;)
    Is an in-flight meal included: ?

    Second Quote:

    The number of people travelling (inc kids ages): 2 Adults
    The Hotel (or * if it’s allocate on arrival): Aston on the green (but any central 3* would do)
    The Board (self catering/half board etc): B&B
