Disneyland Paris
We surprised the kids with our destination at Dublin Airport! We were off to Disneyland Paris to meet their favourite characters; Darth Vader and Elsa! Air France took care of our checked luggage, we experienced FastTrack and didn’t have to wait too long to board. The take-off, flight and landing were very smooth. We were greeted by our transfer in arrivals, and it took us approximately 40 minutes to reach our accommodation at Villages Nature Paris.
Location
Disneyland Paris is a magical holiday destination with two
Parks filled with endless attractions, restaurants, and shops for Guests of all
ages. Villages Nature Paris is served by a bus to/from Disneyland Paris for a
very small fare and only 6km from the resort.
What I Loved
Witnessing the pure joy on our children's faces as they
encountered their beloved Disney characters was a priceless moment during our
trip. Meeting Darth Vader in person and experiencing the Star Wars simulator
added an extra layer of excitement and wonder. The Storybook Land Canal Boats
allowed us to embark on a enchanting journey through miniature landscapes,
creating cherished memories.
Activities & Places to See
Disney Illuminations is a breath-taking night-time
spectacular that transforms Sleeping Beauty Castle into a dazzling canvas of
light, colour, and enchanting projections. The show takes place in front of the
iconic castle, creating a magical backdrop.
Take an intergalactic journey on Hyperspace Mountain, a Star
Wars-themed roller coaster that propels you into the heart of a space battle.
The exhilarating ride is a must for fans of the galaxy far, far away.
The Main Street Parade at Disneyland Paris is a magical
procession that brings beloved Disney characters to life on enchanting floats.
The parade takes place along Main Street, U.S.A., creating a wonderful vibrant
atmosphere.
Keep an eye out for scheduled meet-and-greet sessions where
you can interact with characters, take photos, and collect autographs.
Shopping
You can shop your heart out at Disneyland with a variety of
stores to explore. Start at Main Street Emporium and World of Disney for all
things Disney, from clothes to souvenirs. Check out themed spots like Agrabah
Bazaar for unique souvenirs and The Disney Gallery for artsy Disney things.
Whether you're into Star Wars or Pixar, there's a store for you, making
shopping at Disneyland a fun experience for everyone.
Food & Bars
With 8 dining options available at Villages Nature Paris (Center Parcs) and the onsite supermarket, there's plenty of choice. As our holiday revolved around Disneyland, we opted for a self-catering apartment which allowed us use the on-site supermarket for breakfast and dinner, and afforded us the option to make our own lunches/snacks/drinks to take to Disneyland. Disneyland Paris offers a plethora of dining choices, including themed restaurants, Agrabah souks, street vendors, cowboy saloons, and well-known establishments like Planet Hollywood. The diverse culinary options cater to a variety of tastes and preferences.
