  • Your trip dates are low season so i,d expect better rates for park tickets to come out. have you had a look at fnac or ticketnet.fr?

    So if I book though ticketnet 1day 2 parks 37 euros for my dates = 148 for 2 days do ticket net send tickets or vouchers ?.

    Hi,


    I am trawling through this thread and getting a little confused!

    We will be visiting Disneyland Paris on the 25th August and my family consists of:-

    2 x adults,
    4 x kids (15,8,5,2)

    I can buy tickets as extras from Eurocamp for £50.00/per adult (15yo is an adult?) and 2 kids at £45.00 each (under 3 is free?)

    I have seen mention of various French sites with tickets at 39 euros which would be a massive saving. I am very wary of anything that is so much cheaper.

    Are these sites genuine and reliable?
    Are the tickets printable or will they post to the uk?
    Do I have to specify the date?

    This is a once in a lifetime visit for the kids and I really dont want to mess it up!!!

    Any advice would be appreciated.

    I'm not sure - if you do a dummy booking it should tell you which version of a park ticket you get. Its not a problem either way - if its a print-at-home eticket you don't have to get that changed at the gates of DLP, it'll have a barcode on it which is scanned to get you through the turnstiles and use the fastpass machines etc.

    If its a voucher, you just change it at guest services right outside the park turnstiles when you arrive, before entering the parks.

    all of the following sites are reputable legitimate sites to buy tickets from -
    cemultiavantages
    promoparcs
    ticketnet.fr
    fnac

    The first 2 send tickets through the post to your UK address, and for both of them you need to pay for postage and to join their affiliation, so you'd need to add on around 26 euros to the price you are seeing on either of those 2 sites, for the extra fees.

    Ticketnet.fr and fnac do, I believe, have the option of print-at-home or e-tickets, if you do a dummy booking you'll see the options available to you.

    how old is your child? If they are aged under 12 when you go to DLP, the best places at the moment are cemultiavantages or promoparcs - cost would be 159 euros for your Dream AP, 35 euros for your child's Dream AP, and affiliation/postage fees to the UK of around 26 euros.

    My daughter is 9.

    You gave me a lot of advice a few months back which was very helpful. I'm about to book a 4 day stay at the Dream Castle Hotel for 3 nights in December (6/7/8) for £343 which for that time of year i think is quite reasonable. I booked the hotel at via trivago which sent me to hotelopia.com.

    Once i've booked it I will then book the annual passes and train tickets. :)

    I'd look around to see if you can beat that hotel price - for example I've just had a look on travelrepublic and the Dream Castle is only £238 total for your dates on there ;).

    I'm looking into taking Mr Mrs and the two kids in september. (Kids aged 3 years and the other 4 months.)

    Ive got the option to go the sunday to wednesday (15-18th) or Friday to Monday (20th-23rd).
    Any advice on which is the better option?

    Looking at the fantasy passes it looks like the weekend 21st-22nd is not included. similarly the 17th is not included so i'm guessing these passes would not be beneficially to me? is this correct?

    Is it going to be a cheaper option to book the disney davey crocket ranch and get tickets included or best to book something like the dream castle and book my own tickets?

    Apologies for all the questions!
