Our services are free to you because we earn a commission directly from Disney after you travel. This means you get our expert planning assistance at no extra cost to you! You pay the same price for your Disney vacation as you would if booking directly, but you gain our personalized support and expertise.

We continuously monitor Disney's promotions and discounts. If a new offer becomes available that could apply to your existing reservation, we will do our best to have it applied, potentially saving you money! Please note that the applicability of promotions is subject to Disney's terms and conditions.

Absolutely! Securing those coveted Advance Dining Reservations can be a crucial part of your Disney experience. We will work with you to understand your dining preferences and will be up early on your booking window to try and secure those must-do meals for your family.

Typically, our complimentary services are for new bookings made through Travel Planner Plus. Managing existing reservations booked directly with Disney can be complex and may not always be possible. However, please reach out to us with the details of your situation, and we'll be happy to discuss if we can offer any assistance.

Yes, we absolutely do! We are happy to assist guests from all over the world in planning their magical Disney vacations in the United States.

To provide you with the most accurate and personalized quote, we typically ask for information such as:

• Your desired travel dates (even a range is helpful)
• The number of adults and children in your party (and the ages of any children at the time of travel)
• Which Disney destination(s) you are interested in
• Your preferred resort type or specific resorts you're considering
• Any specific interests or must-do activities (e.g., specific parks, dining experiences, special events)
• Your approximate budget (this helps us tailor recommendations)

The more information you can provide, the better we can craft a quote that meets your needs.

That's entirely up to you! We can be as involved as you'd like. Some clients prefer to hand over all the details and let us create a comprehensive plan, while others like to be very involved in each decision. We'll work closely with you to ensure you feel comfortable and informed every step of the way. Your preferences are our priority.

We understand that plans can sometimes change. We will assist you with any modifications you need to make to your reservation, such as adjusting dates, adding or removing guests, or changing resort accommodations. Please note that changes may be subject to booking policies and availability, and in some cases, may incur fees. We will always keep you informed of any potential costs or limitations.

We can provide information about accessible rooms, transportation options, and park services. Please let us know about any specific needs you may have so we can help ensure a comfortable and enjoyable experience for everyone in your party.

Our focus is on creating comprehensive and magical vacation experiences, which typically involves booking a package with resort accommodations and park tickets. However, we are happy to discuss your specific needs and see if we can assist with individual components like tickets or dining reservations on a case-by-case basis, depending on the circumstances and availability.

Generally, Disneyland Resort hotel rooms and vacation packages can be booked up to approximately 500 days in advance. Similar to Walt Disney World, airline availability within packages may have a different booking window. We recommend reaching out to us as soon as you have your travel dates in mind to secure the best options, especially during peak seasons.

Absolutely! Park Hopper tickets allow you to visit both Disneyland Park and Disney California Adventure Park on the same day, offering maximum flexibility. We can certainly help you select the best ticket option for your needs, including Park Hopper if you'd like to experience both parks each day.

Disneyland Resort also offers the Disney Genie+ service, which allows you to make Lightning Lane selections for many attractions via the Disneyland app. While the core concept is similar to Walt Disney World, the specific attractions included and the overall strategy for using it can differ. We can provide you with up-to-date guidance and tips for maximizing Genie+ at Disneyland to minimize your wait times. Individual Lightning Lane selections for highly popular rides are also available for separate purchase.

Both Disneyland Park and Disney California Adventure Park offer unique experiences:

• Disneyland Park: The original Disney park, featuring classic and beloved attractions, iconic lands like Fantasyland and Adventureland, and the magic of Main Street, U.S.A. It's often considered a must-do for first-time visitors and those seeking the traditional Disney experience.
• Disney California Adventure Park: Celebrates the spirit and stories of California, with thrilling rides, Pixar Pier, Cars Land, and unique dining and entertainment options. It offers a different, often more adult-oriented, vibe alongside family-friendly fun.

We'll help you determine how to best allocate your time between the two parks based on your family's interests and the length of your visit.

Are there any unique attractions or experiences specific to Disneyland that I should know about?

Disneyland boasts several unique and iconic attractions that you won't find at Walt Disney World, such as:

• Sleeping Beauty Castle Walkthrough: Explore the classic fairy tale within the park's centerpiece.
• Mr. Toad's Wild Ride: A whimsical and unpredictable dark ride.
• Snow White's Enchanted Wish: Another beloved Fantasyland dark ride.

We can highlight these unique experiences and help you incorporate them into your itinerary.

One of the great advantages of Disneyland Resort is the close proximity of the two parks. They are located directly across from each other at the end of Main Street, U.S.A. and Buena Vista Street, respectively. It's a very short and easy walk between the park entrances.

Disneyland has its own set of fantastic seasonal events and celebrations, such as:

• Halloween Time at Disneyland: Featuring special fireworks, parades, and ride overlays.

Universal offers a variety of ticket options, which can sometimes be a bit complex. These can include:

• Single-park tickets: Access to one park per day.
• Park-to-Park tickets: Allow you to visit multiple parks on the same day (essential for riding the Hogwarts Express in Orlando).
• Multi-day tickets: For visiting the parks over several days.
• Express Pass: A separate add-on that allows you to bypass the regular lines at many popular attractions.

We can help you navigate these options and determine the best ticket type for your travel style and budget.

Universal Express Pass is an add-on to your park ticket that allows you to access shorter lines at participating attractions. Whether it's "worth it" depends on several factors, including:

• Time of year: During peak seasons, Express Pass can save you significant time.
• Your budget: It's an additional cost per person.
• Your tolerance for waiting in line: If you prefer to maximize your ride time, it's a valuable investment.

We can discuss your travel dates and preferences to help you decide if Universal Express Pass is a good option for your trip.

Similar to Disney, it's generally a good idea to book your Universal Studios vacation as early as possible, especially if you have specific resort preferences or are traveling during peak season. You can typically book hotel and ticket packages several months in advance, often up to approximately 12-18 months.

• Early Park Admission: Staying at an on-site Universal Orlando Resort hotel grants you early access to The Wizarding World.
• Hogwarts Express (Orlando only): A unique train ride connecting Hogsmeade (Islands of Adventure) and Diagon Alley (Universal Studios Florida), requiring a Park-to-Park ticket.
