Disneyland Paris/EuroDisney - Questions & Answers

We booked 4 night in the Davy Crocketts ranch, with 5 days worth of passes.

Disneylands own website quoted us £600.

Travel Agents quoted us £1000 (for the EXACT same package).

I would never book anything with a travel agents without checking every other option first as they tend to whack a huge amount of commission on everything.

This was for this year by the way (a month ago, wish we were still there, lol!).

Hi gilly24 and welcome, try booking direct with Disney themselves www.disneylandparis.co.uk also whereabouts in Scotland would you be travelling from because as from this month Easyjet are starting to fly from Glasgow and Edinburgh www.easyjet.co.uk :j They fly into Charles De Gaulle airport and you get the Disneyland bus outside the terminal direct to Disneyland, I think it costs about 13 Euros each way per person (you pay the driver). We (my daughter and I)are going in November this will be our 15th time and we always stay at the Hotel Cheyenne which is next to the Santa Fe, we always book direct with Disney but we usually fly with Ryanair but they fly from Prestwick and we live nearer Glasgow.
We are going for 4 nights/5 days including breakfast and unlimited entry to the parks £370 + flights from Glasgow £66 in total £436 I think that is a great price as that is during the Christmas season. And thats for 2 Adults as my daughter is 23.:xmassmile :xmastree:
I hope this maybe of some help to you.

Just to add, check the price of your flights with the Disneyland website - when we added the Eurostar it took it right up to the same price as the TA - £750 for the same train we had paid £242 for!! Just check around and book everything at the same time to ensure seats etc... are available. I booked the train direct and the hotel (with the passes included) direct and then I called Disney gave them my hotel booking and added the Disney Express on for £14 each.

Hi All,

Wondering if any of you can share your disney experience?

Looking to go for 3 nights at the end of Nov this year, 2 adults, 2 x 6 year olds, all disney eurostar services direct to disney are booked one way or the other, so is eurostar to paris an option (handy because of the tesco vouchers?) How easy would the transfer be?

I've tried googling it and cant find much information. Have any of you done this? And how easy/stressful was it?

Also, would you recommend a disney hotel with passes or one just outside disney and buy passes seperately?

Finally, we're thinking of maybe spending an afternoon in Paris before we go home, does anyone know if there's anyway in the eurostar terminal that you can leave your baggage?

Thanks in advance

Hi Lizzie,

Ah, we are going on 19th November, this is the cheapest time we found and have the same group size. The tickets for the eurostar via Tesco are pretty limited and you can only get certain times and dates and prices and then you have to get to the park as well. We decided to pay for it ourselvesin the end as it is quicker (direct service) and you can choose the family section if booking it yourself on line. I am not sure of the age of your children but mine won't sit still for more than 5 minutes. Book direct on the disneyland website www.disneylandparis.co.uk for your accomodation as you can get 3 nights for the price of 2 and kids stay and play free - check the dates though, they make it really easy for you and the yellow boxed dates are cheaper, light blue more expenive and dark blue really expensive. We also booked the Disneyland Express after we had made out hotel booking for £14 Per adult so we don't have to lug our cases around, you get checked in on the train and they take your cases to and from your hotel and you get your tickets so you check in later that day. Book your tickets direct on the Eurostar website and you can play around with the dates and times as well but it goes right to the gates.

If you want to go to Paris you can do this via your hotel that will run a trip. The hotel has breakfast and passes included, we paid 3 nights/4 days for £352 in Sequoia Lodge and we have our own insurance so uncheck the Insurance box as you'll get it cheaper elsewhere.

As far as I know you can only leave your luggage at the disney Express but someone will correct me if I am wrong I am sure but if you do this and get the direct service home you'll get the entire day in the park, the hotel takes your cases and you collect them arund 6/7pm ready to get the train home. This is why I suggested you go into Paris on a different day.

It is really easy to book, please PM if you want to ask anything else but it's late and I have to go to bed. Have fun, we love it but sadly tesco not ding it anymore and this really was the best way for us as you don;t have any other hidden costs apart from lunch, dinner and pressies/treats. No taxi's, trains, transfers just right to the door, drop off your luggage, go to the parks and then check in at the end of the day and then vice versa on the way back.

You can leave your cases sat the train station just outside the main park entrance it costs very little. It is much easier to go on the direct train though. Last time we went with Tesco vouchers but said next time we'd rather pay the fare and go direct. Staying in the hotels is also best if you can afford it.

There is left luggage facility in the South-West corner of Gare du Nord, near the Eurostar platforms.
