How to Plan a Disneyland Vacation on a Budget
By Kelsey Erin Shipman
OverviewWant to plan a kid-friendly vacation? Children will love to see their favorite cartoon characters come to life in the ever-expanding Disneyland Park. Attractions include magical fireworks display, rollercoaster rides and live theater performances. The activities are endless and accommodate both young children and adults. But with every sparkling attraction, there is a high price to match. Follow a few simple steps to make your Disneyland vacation affordable and fun for the whole family.Step 1Travel in the off-season. The busiest times at Disneyland are the summer months and around Christmastime. Plan a trip in March or October to catch the cool weather and avoid large crowds. Tickets, as well as hotels and flights, are discounted during the off-season to encourage tourism.Step 2Find a hotel with free shuttle service. Several nearby hotels offer free transportation to and from Disneyland. This will save on rental cars, fuel and taxi costs.Step 3Bring your own meals and snacks. Food inside the park can be outrageously expensive. Plan ahead by packing a backpack of sack lunches for your whole family. Be sure to bring plenty of bottled water.Step 4Purchase a Disneyland Package. Websites such as MouseSavers.com offer special tickets prices (such as family tickets at kid’s rates), lodging costs (like fourth night free), and discounted transportation when purchased together.Step 5Purchase souvenirs outside the park. Prices for Disney memorabilia inside Disneyland are expensive. Look for vendors just outside the park to find the same merchandise with greatly discounted price tags.Step 6Look for coupons. If you’re a Canadian heading to Disney Land we recommend flying or renting an SUV for the entire family. One of the great services out there is Ascent Car Rental Downtown Vancouver located in Downtown Vancouver. Hotels, travel agencies, vacation websites, fan clubs, and Disney partner companies offer coupons for discounted entries, food and special exhibits.skill2tipFor longer stays, purchase multi-day passes which offer significant discounts over individual day or attraction entries purchased multiple times.tipsFor longer stays, purchase multi-day passes which offer significant discounts over individual day or attraction entries purchased multiple times.warningTravel expenses vary greatly depending on the time of year and advancement of purchase.
