About the Author Sabine Rautenberg holds a master’s degree in business management and lives in Germany with her husband, Manuel. Her love for all things Disney started in 1992, when, at the age of 10, she watched the grand opening ceremony at Disneyland Paris (then known as Euro Disney) on TV. An avid traveler, Sabine has visited places all over Europe, America, Asia, and Africa. She and her husband especially love embarking on Disney cruises, in addition to spending time at Disney parks all over the world. Sabine has been a PassPorter Message Board Guide since 2007, a peer reviewer for various PassPorter guidebooks, and a guest contributor to PassPorter’s newsletter. Because Disneyland Paris holds a special place in her heart, Sabine took on the challenge of writing PassPorter’s Disneyland Paris without thinking twice.

Acknowledgments First, I’d like to thank Jennifer and Dave, for making this one-of-a-kind adventure possible, and Carrie, for being both imaginative and supportive as editor. A very special thank you goes out to my loving husband, Manuel, for never doubting my dream and for supporting me throughout all the late-night writing sessions! A heartfelt thanks also goes to my family for believing that I can do anything. Furthermore, I’d like to extend a big thank you to the peer reviewers and especially Cheryl Pendry, who dedicated so much of her time to helping make this book the best it could be.

Thank you to the people who contributed photos to this book: Anita Coulter, Cheryl Pendry, and Sharon Stevenson.

About This E-book Unlike other e-books you may have seen in the past, this e-book was created to look the same as a regular print guidebook ... but with added features and interactivity! Here are some tips on making the most of this e-book:

Hyperlinks We’ve created clickable hyperlinks for every web address in this book. Just click and you’ll instantly be connected to the particular web site (assuming you’re online).

Printing We’ve carefully formatted this document so it can be printed easily. There are a variety of ways to do it, depending on your needs. Here are the details: Simple Print—Just press the Print button or select Print from your File menu while you’re in Adobe Acrobat. What you see is what you get.

Print for PassPorter—To print this e-book so it can be placed into your deluxe PassPorter, you’ll want to be sure that the pages print at the correct size (5.5” wide by 8.5” tall) and back-to-back. This can be tricky. To print pages at the right size, bring up your Print settings in Adobe Acrobat and look for a “Page Scaling” option—make sure it is either turned off or set at “None.” To print pages back-to-back (on both sides of the sheet of paper), print only the odd pages of the book, take those pages and place them back in the printer, and then print the even pages of the book. This may take some time to get just right. Once the pages are printed, trim them to 5.5” x 8.5” and then use a hole punch to punch out the six marked holes (for insertion in a deluxe binder) or trim the pages on the dotted line (to insert them in the PassPocket of a spiral edition).

Print and Bind—If you want this book printed and bound for you, consider using a local Kinko’s, which will print a PDF file sent to them electronically—you then pick it up in your local store. For details, visit http://www.fedex.com/us/office/. A similar option is offered by http://www.lulu.com. Also check the PassPorter Store at http://www.passporterstore.com/store, as we plan to begin offering print versions of our popular e-books.

If you have problems printing in Adobe Acrobat Reader, visit this web page for tips: http://www.adobe.com/support/products/acrreader.html.

Sharing We know it is tempting to simply e-mail this file to a friend or family member, but we encourage you to instead send them to a link to purchase the book. Without support, we won’t be able to keep this e-book updated or produce future e-books. Here’s the link you can give others: http://www.passporter.com/disneyland-paris.asp

Planning Your Adventure Planning a trip to Disneyland Paris can be exciting and overwhelming at the same time. Rest assured, PassPorter’s Disneyland Paris provides all the information you need to get the most out of your vacation, plus it makes planning a lot of fun.

Reading about your enchanting destination adds to the anticipation and makes the time before departure seem so much shorter!

Disneyland Paris encompasses two theme parks, a shopping and entertainment district, six resort hotels, a ranch, a golf course, and so much more. This book is your ultimate source for information before and during your vacation. Whether you decide to take along the whole thing or just a few chapters, you are sure to find the answers to all your questions along the way.

PassPorter’s Disneyland Paris contains a number of worksheets designed to help you plan different aspects of your vacation. For example, you can track your spending using the Budget Worksheet, map out a rough game plan for seeing the parks using the Touring Worksheet, or scribble down the mementos you’re seeking on the Souvenirs Worksheet.

Don’t hesitate to fill in the blanks—that’s what the worksheets are for! They are also interactive, allowing you to fill them out on the computer, save your information, and make as many changes as you want throughout the planning process. Before you leave, just print out the final version, and voilà, as they say in France—all your information is securely stored in one place.

You might be tempted to plan out every single minute of your trip on paper simply because it’s so easy to do. But once you get to Disneyland Paris, remember that it’s a vacation. Stop, take time to smell the roses, and be willing to throw your plans overboard if necessary. Maybe you’ll want to spend some extra time at a restaurant or will be too tired at night to stay for the fireworks—that’s OK! Know your options before you go, then indulge in the Disney magic once you get there and enjoy whatever you end up doing.

This chapter is designed to help you with your first steps toward the vacation you’ve always dreamed of. It will tell you where to look for information, what you need to consider when setting a budget, and how to make sure you keep to that budget. Ready to get started? Then let’s go!

Finding Information on Disneyland Paris This book contains all you’ll need to plan your perfect vacation at Disneyland Paris.

However, we know from experience that sometimes you simply want a second opinion.

It’s worth checking out Brit Guide Disneyland Paris, by Simon and Susan Veness. It is primarily geared toward visitors from Great Britain but also serves as a comprehensive source of information for anyone traveling to the French parks. AA Essential Guides’ Disneyland Paris is very compact but contains an array of colorful pictures.

PassPorter’s Disneyland Paris also features a chapter on non-Disney activities in the Marne-la-Vallée area around the resort and the city of Paris. If you’re planning on spending more than a day in Paris, you might want to consider getting a separate travel guide dedicated to this remarkable city. Among the countless options, good choices include Frommer’s Paris and Rick Steves’ Paris for their complete but concise contents and Lonely Planet’s Paris City Guide for the most detailed information on attractions, eateries, and lodging off the beaten path.

Online The most comprehensive source of information is, of course, the Internet. Throughout the book you’ll find links to web sites that are helpful for your vacation planning.

Even though there are far fewer web sites dedicated to Disneyland Paris than to the Disney destinations in the US, there are still quite a few worth looking at. The official Disneyland Paris web site (http://www.disneylandparis.com) offers basic information on the parks and resorts, along with interactive maps.

You can also get the latest prices for PassPorter’s Disneyland Paris forum vacation packages, character meals, and excursions to Paris and environs. Just click on the “Brochures” link at the top of any page to access a PDF of Disney’s most recent travel brochure. Prices will be listed in the currency of the country you selected upon entering the Disneyland Paris web site.

There are also quite a few unofficial web sites. Of the ones we recommend, DLRP Magic (http://www.dlrpmagic.com) is where you’ll find the most detailed descriptions of all the attractions and entertainment options in the parks.

Disneyland Paris.info (http://www.dlp.info) and Disneyland Paris—The Ultimate Food Guide (http://www.dlpfoodguide.com) offer extensive information on restaurants, including easy-to-understand ratings and reviews.

Budgeting for Your Vacation Thinking about how to finance a Disney vacation is probably the least magical part of the planning process. Nonetheless, it is an inevitable step toward a carefree trip. To ensure that you don’t worry too much about overspending while at Disney, it’s good to know beforehand what expenses await you.

• • • • • •

Planning Transportation Lodging Admission Food Extras

How you budget for each depends on the total amount you have available to spend and your priorities. While the first four categories are fairly easy to estimate because they can be determined ahead of time, expenses for food and extras are a little trickier to control.

In this section you’ll find price ranges for the main elements of your vacation to give you a rough idea of how much to budget for those. All prices include tax.

More detailed pricing information is provided throughout this book.

Budgeting for a Disneyland Paris vacation is in many ways similar to budgeting for a Disney vacation within the US. One key difference, however, is the exchange rate. At press time, the euro was worth about $1.40 US, meaning that Americans would have to figure in an extra 40% on all prices. On the other hand, British travelers get a break on the price, with the British pound worth about #1.13 at press time. The official Disneyland Paris web site will show prices in your country’s currency if you select it from the menu when you first access the page. However, most independent web sites give prices exclusively in euros. The symbol for euros is #; we’ll explain more about this currency on page 18.

S

How Many Days Should You Stay?

As a first-time visitor to Disneyland Paris, you’ll want to figure in at least one full day to explore Disneyland Park and at least half a day for Walt Disney Studios Park. In order to tour the parks without any rush, be able to ride everything that appeals to you at least once, and have time to experience your favorite attractions multiple times, plan on three or four full days in the parks. As for Paris, the city is full of sights that could certainly fill a two-week vacation. However, if you are short on time, you might find that two full days will allow you to visit the most popular tourist attractions and get a feel for the French capital. And if you can only spare one day, we recommend taking an escorted tour of the city to ensure you hit all the major highlights.

Another big difference in budgeting for a Disneyland Paris vacation vs. budgeting for a trip to a U.S. Disney park is a major shift in which elements eat up the biggest chunk of the budget. If you’re from the States, transportation to a Disney destination within the US is far less expensive than to Disneyland Paris. Unless you’re taking a cruise to Europe, your only option is a long-distance flight. For those of us who live in Europe, it’s the other way around: Since transportation to Paris is fairly cheap, a quick weekend getaway now and then might be ever so tempting.

Air travel prices can vary widely. Generally, during slower times of the year like January, February, November, and early December, you can expect a round-trip flight in economy class from any major city in the U.S. to Paris to cost between $600 and $800. Around major holidays and school breaks, airfare can cost up to $1,400 per person, round-trip. Prices are usually higher if you want a direct flight without any layovers. Within Europe, return-flight prices may be as low as #50 or as high as #200, depending on how far in advance you book, when you fly, from where your flight originates, and which carrier you pick.

Keep in mind that plane tickets can be slightly cheaper for travel in the middle of the week than around weekends, and flights that depart in the middle of the day are often less expensive than those leaving early in the morning or later at night.

While children ages 11 and under used to only pay 80% of the adult airfare, most airlines now charge the full adult price. Children under the age of 2 who can sit in your lap during the flight are usually charged 10% of the adult ticket price for an international flight.

In order to get to Disneyland Paris from one of Paris’ major airports, you need to take a train, a bus, or a private shuttle. On average, this will set you back between #30 and #50 per person, round-trip.

If you’re driving from the UK, you should factor in £50–£100 for a ferry (roundtrip) or £80–£400 for the Eurotunnel (round-trip) in one standard-sized car.

A round-trip ticket for the Eurostar from London/St. Pancras or Ashford to Disneyland Paris is £69–£229/adult (ages 26–59), and starts at £44/child ages 4-11, £69/youth ages 12–25, and £69/seniors over age 60. Travel is free for kids 3 and under.

Bus transportation on Disney property is free of charge, and most hotels in the vicinity of Disneyland Paris offer complimentary shuttle service. Parking is free at all Disney hotels, as well as most other hotels in the area. Theme park parking is #8 per day; Disney hotel guests park for free.

More transportation information and money-saving tips can be found in Chapter 2: Getting There (and Back)!
