Hi there

We go to Disneyland Paris once ever year.

Here are my tips for saving money and still enjoying yourselves:

Travel by Car if you can, via Eurotunnel.
Then pay for your Eurotunnel tickets with Tesco Vouchers.

Load your boot of your car up with drinks, snacks, crisps etc... Then take a lightweight rucksack with bits in to the Park each day. Buying stuff like this inside the Parks is a real rip-off, and you know the kids always want something!

If staying at a Disney Hotel, stay at Cheyenne or Santa Fe (Cheyenne is slightly better)
No point in paying extra for better rated Hotel that has more facilities like swimming pools etc... if you are going to be at the Parks all day long.
Cheyenne is just a very pleasant 15min walk to the Parks, or 2min free bus ride.

For lunch, grab some baguettes from the Marne la Valee Station on your way past it to the Parks. Very nice and much cheaper than the rubbish in the Parks. Stick them in your handy rucksack until lunchtime!

For Dinner, if you must eat in the Restaurants in Disney Village, they are all very expensive, but go for Mickey Cafe everytime. Its the same high prices as RainForest Cafe and Planet Hollywood, but the kids get the added bonus of the Characters coming to the table for autographs and photos. Plus a free drinks cup to take home.

Hope these help

I read in 3 brochures and on the official DLP site about the pool closure, but the lady who took my booking said she had been assured by the DLP call centre that it would be open. I told her I wasn't risking it so we are staying at the Newport.

Everything sorted now, just waiting for kid's renewed passports to arrive!

I'm thinking of booking to see Buffalo Bill as a apecial treat on our last night, can anyone tell me if it is worth the expense and what the food/drink provided is like?

Cheers,

DW

up to u at end of the day, but it seemed mind-blowingly expensive to me, for what it is.

hi
oh yes sure there are a few other good character restaurants, but i was just meaning the ones in the Disney Village, for evening meals once the Park has closed.

basically, what i mean is, if you are going to pay extorniate prices for tiny french portions, you might as well have a few characters thrown in for the fun of it !!

in the park, the lucky nuggett is good for character lunches, but expensive.
