Hello there Steph! Welcome to planDisney, we're so glad you're here!
How exciting that you have a trip to the "Happiest Place on Earth" coming up so soon! If you are in need of a
Disneyland Resort Hotel Vacation Package or a
Good Neighbor Hotel Vacation Package, I do recommend connecting with a local travel agent who specializes in trips to the Disneyland Resort. We recommend International Guests work with a local travel agent to help book their magical holiday, they will be the best resource for ensuring a smooth trip over to the States!
For planning how you'll spend your days during your visit, I first recommend taking a look at the list of
attractions in both
Disneyland Park and
Disney California Adventure Park. You can browse the list of attractions by many different factors such as thrill type, interests, or height requirement. I love to make a list of my family's top 3 priority attractions in each theme park, and make sure we cross those off the list first!
You can also browse all of the wonderful
entertainment options you can enjoy whether that's fireworks shows or nighttime spectaculars such as
World of Color - ONE, parades, or meeting some of your favorite Disney pals and being able to give them a hug!
My final recommendation and my favorite thing to do while planning our trips is to figure out what you'll want to eat and snack on during your trip! There are so many wonderful
dining options whether you want to sit down and enjoy a table service meal, or grab a quick meal at one of the quick service dining locations. Our favorite quick service location is
Bengal Barbecue in Disneyland Park, we love to get a few beef skewers fresh off of the grill. Our favorite table service restaurant is
Lamplight Lounge in Disney California Adventure Park, you truly cannot beat the views of Pixar Pier, and we always are ordering the cheddar burger and lobster nachos!
I hope these tips get your planning off to a great start, Steph! I'm happy to help with any other questions for your trip, don't hesitate to
come back and ask me any other questions, you've got a friend in me!
Have a magical day,
Melissa
