Disneyland in Paris in the summer, features of summer holidays in the park

Of course, most tourists tend to bring children to the park, because this trip will give them positive emotions, joy and impressions for life. Summer time is one of the best for this choice of entertainment for a child. Children begin long summer holidays, the mood disposes to new impressions and discoveries, and the weather pleases sunny days.

The air temperature in Paris in June warms up to 20-25 degrees, in July the heat comes around 30 degrees, and in August again come to a comfortable level of 20-25 degrees. You can wear light clothes and sunbathe in the soft French sun.

By the way, even on hot days, the park strives to do everything for the comfort of its visitors - in many corners there are steam generator sets, which are stretched in the air hoses with holes spraying small drops of water. You stand for a few minutes under such a small shower and it gets good and fresh.

The park starts working from 10 hours daily, and closes at 23.00 in the summer.

Do not forget about the queues for attractions, the most popular can stand for 1-1.5 hours, for less popular - from 30 minutes. In the summer, the queues become larger than in any other period of the year. But the possibility of bypassing the queues is at the park itself, guides and hotels. We'll talk about that later.

The amusement park is a copy of the American park and is divided into two large zones - Disneyland Park (DLP) and Walt Disney Studios Park (WDSP), that is, directly Disneyland and Walt Disney Studio Park. There is also a Disney Village space with shops, restaurants, cafes and a golf area.

You can buy tickets to either of the two parks or both. Tickets to Disneyland Paris and Walt Disney Studio Park give you the opportunity to ride on absolutely all attractions. That is, you pay only the time (in days) of stay in the park, for which you can bypass at least all the attractions presented.

There are four types of passes: MINI, MAGIC, SUPER MAGIC and MAGIC FLEX. Their cost is affected by the restriction on days. Tickets can be calculated for 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 days. On 4-day tickets you can save up to 50% of the cost.

MINI is valid on the day after the day of purchase only on weekdays. Not valid June 5, all July, from 1 to 27 August, from 23 October to 3 November, from 25 December to 5 January. It's not a good option for summer.

Children under 3 years of age visit the park for free, but not all rides can pass.

Only one park:

Disneyland or Walt Disney Studios (if you’ve already visited Disneyland):

Entrance to both parks:

We do not recommend that you buy tickets to two parks at once, even with savings. Because of the queues, time for one park will take a lot, in one day to have time, most likely, in both parks will not work.

Where to buy tickets?

Tickets to enter Disneyland Paris can be purchased directly at the box office of the park, if you have a lot of time, you can use this method by standing in line.

Tickets can be purchased in advance. websiteOften there is information about discounts. After purchase, be sure to print the coupon, and at the entrance, attach a bar code to the scanner to get to the park, do not forget a passport for registered tickets.

If you come not only to Disneyland, but also decided to walk around Paris, go to the Champs-Elysees, many kiosks sell tickets and products of the park.

Tickets can be bought at Fnac stores, a network located throughout Paris or at the RER metro box office.

At Disneyland Paris, the queues are always large, but on entrance tickets you can buy Fast Pass, the so-called passes without queues for the most popular attractions. No extra charge is required. Fast Pass is issued by special machines located at the entrance to the attraction. You can come at the time indicated on the ticket within half an hour. The passage begins to act no earlier than 30 minutes after receipt.

Where to live with and without children

When choosing accommodation, it is best to focus on the purpose of the trip. If you plan to visit only Disneyland, then it makes sense to stay no further than two kilometers from the park. As a rule, it is not enough for tourists to visit all the interesting attractions, so it is better to stay at the hotel for at least two days and take a suitable ticket.

There are hotels on the territory, both thematic and ordinary. The cost of the room varies from 11 000 rubles per day and reaches 30 – 40 thousand rubles. By the way, staying in a hotel on the territory of the park gives the opportunity to go to the attractions not from 10 o’clock, like everyone, but from 8, that is, two hours earlier. Some sources write that attractions can be passed without a queue if you are a guest of such a hotel.

Hotels that are located in 1-1.5 km offer accommodation from 5000 rubles per day. 5-6 kilometers from Disneyland can be located from 3700 per room per day.

Choose a hotel remotely depending on what age your child is and how he carries the road. In general, it is not so difficult to get to the park, it is located right next to the metro station, to which the train goes from the very center of Paris.

Meals at Disneyland Park

When choosing a hotel, you should pay attention to whether meals are included in the price of the room, whether the hotel provides breakfast. This is especially true if you are traveling with your child to Disneyland. We recommend to stock up on sandwiches, fruits, drinks that will not spoil in the sun.

There is also a Disney Village area in the park, which you can visit between rides or while waiting for your Fast Pass. In the park there are also stalls with fast food and ice cream for snacks. However, many tourists who come without a guide say that there is simply not enough time for a full lunch due to queues.

How to get without a queue to Disneyland attractions in Paris

Since Disneyland is visited annually by 10-12 million people from all over the world, and there are only 65 attractions in the French park, it is impossible not to mention the large number of tourists and hour queues at almost every entertainment. This is confirmed by numerous stories of tourists who walk in the park on their own. In summer you can stand in line for popular attractions for 1.5-2 hours.

The cost of a room in the park hotel, accommodation in which helps to avoid queues, is several times higher than similar hotels a little further. A Fast Pass makes the guest of the park constantly monitor the time, creating certain inconveniences.
