2. Space for Everything

Large vans hold suitcases, strollers, shopping bags, and more.

 

3. Safety

Professional, licensed drivers with safe driving track records.

 

4. Door-to-Door Hotel Drop-off

Essential after a long day at Disneyland.

 

5. Return Trip Comfort

Kids often fall asleep and the chauffeur ensures smooth travel.

 

Tips for Visiting Disneyland Paris

Most attractions have shorter queues before 11 AM.

 

2. Download the Disneyland App

Track ride times, shows, parades, and restaurant bookings.

 

3. Book Premier Access Pass

Skip long queues for popular rides.

 

4. Bring Snacks & Water

Food inside the parks can get expensive.

There are too many attractions for one day.
