Here’s something that’s hard to believe (but true): in less than three hours’ time, you could be at the gates of Disneyland Paris, looking up at the bright blue turrets of Sleeping Beauty Castle. The Eurostar zips directly from London to this magical park, and there are heaps of gorgeous on-site Disney hotels to stay in, which means that it’s perfect for a spur-of-the-moment holiday with your mates. You’re never too old to visit Disneyland Paris, and in fact, there’s one huge advantage of visiting as an adult: you don’t need to visit during school holidays.
Think about it, Disney devotees – by planning your holiday off-peak, it’s likely that there will be fewer people at the park, which means a more leisurely experience (and more rides!). Plus, off-peak prices are lower for park admission and accommodation, so you’ll have more cash to spend on other fun things like shopping in the Disney Village and dining at luxe restaurants with much-loved characters.
It’s enough to make you want to erupt into song and dance. But before you go, make sure you take note of the things you want to do the most. We’ll get you started with our hit-list of the five must-do activities at Disneyland Paris.
