Just a head's up on park hopping - you can enter either park after 11 am if you haven't entered either park yet regardless of which park you made your reservation. From the Disneyland website: After 11:00 AM, if you have not entered any park yet, you may enter either park (despite what you designated for your first park on your park reservation). 🙂

I was going to say that as well. It seems to be a common misconception. I assume it was that way at WDW, but not so at Disneyland. In fact, if you “tag in” at one park if you try to enter the other less than 1/2 hour (maybe more, can’t say exactly how long” later they will stop you at the entrance gate and need to get supervisor approval before they let you in. This is apparently an anti-fraud thing.

Does that mean if I scheduled Disney for that day, I can go into CA after 11 even if I didn't pick it for that day? I may be wording this weird as i haven't been to Disneyland in 20 something years. I'm planning to go for my 10 year wedding anniversary in December!

Swinging gondolas are ten scariest ride in the parks! So agreed.

I also recommend flying into LGB or Long Beach. Super small airport but still A LOT closer than LAX and has some good flight deals!

Honestly, LGB AKA Long Beach is way better to fly into than SNA AKA John Wayne. John Wayne has crazy noise ordinance restrictions and if flights get canceled during the day and push back, many flights just end up getting canceled all together because they are not allowed to leave after a certain time without the airlines receiving massive fines from the city/county. My cousin is a pilot and flies to SNA often and he highly discourages his friends and family from flying there. That said, it's still better than LAX.

Late night events is worth the cost, even in my case where I could not go during day hours (was at a nearby conference), so late night was my only decent choice. Rather than spend time hunting down their food specials and photo opportunities, I went for the rides. Many with no wait, and the longest was 20 minutes for Space Mountain. I got to experience everything I wanted, except Rise of the Resistance that I learned too late that they shut down early.

Strangely, some of the hotels on Harbor Blvd. are actually closer to the entrances of the parks than the Disneyland Hotel or Pixar Hotel. (And a lot cheaper.)

42:54 my mom has a really funny story where she accidentally mistook the swinging gondola line for the normal ones. and she took me and my little sister with her (we must have been 1 to 3 years old at the time). she didn’t even notice until the ride started and the gondola kept sliding.

Some of the Main Street vehicles do run at night….I was surprised as well! Those Good Neighbor Hotels and motels are great, but when you call for that reservation, and if you are driving in, ask about the over night parking fees. The chicken at the Plaza Inn is amazing. The pieces are big and so full of flavor. Shhhh….the ticket purchases for Oogie Boogie begin sometime mid June. They sell out super fast. I am a former cast member. I have also been visiting Disneyland since I was 4, which was 61 3/4 years ago. I know the park like the back of my hand (what does that even mean)? Thank you so much for, AJ.

Main st vehicles resume later at night, also if you’re arriving after 11am you can scan into either park if you have park hopper. No need to scan into reserved park first. My tip, AVOID going to the parks on Mondays!!

There’s another airport! Don’t forget to look at Long Beach (LGB) Have found it’s often much less expensive to fly into LGB and pay for a maybe 10 or 15 minute longer Lyft, and still save $. Also it’s an even smaller & easier airport than SNA. Worth a look anyway.

Thank you so much for pointing out that there are many off-property locations that are within walking distance of the parks! When I go to Walt Disney World, I always stay on property. When I go to Disneyland, I stay on property when I can (we're staying at the Grand Californian in June and September!) but if I can't, I happily stay at the Best Western Park Place Inn and Mini Suites or the Howard Johnson Anaheim because of the short walk to the parks.

Great locations -- such an easy walk to the parks!

Disneyland Genie plus isn't all or nothing. You can choose to purchase it only one day of your trip but it's the same as passholders, you just buy it the day after you're in the park.

I go in a couple weeks SO EXCITED this came perfectly timed!

I agree with these comments! Timestamps and more videos!! Your voice is perfect! The main thing for me is you are to the point. I lose concentration easily so I don’t like when people talk about anything other than what the video is about. I’m excited to watch all of your videos!

My biggest tip, if you have 3 or more days... Do 1/2 of Disneyland a day. We always go to Adventureland, Frontierland, NOS & Critter Country on day 1, DCA on day 2 and Fantasyland, Tomorrowland & ToonTown on day 3. You Can split however you want (we do it our way because Wednesday is a less busy day for the busiest lands). This alleviates SO MUCH stress as you're only thinking about a smaller amount of rides & a little bit of a longer wait time isn't as horrible a thought. You also save a toooooon of energy racing from one attraction to another on the other side of the park and then back again chasing possible shorter wait times. We always go 5 days, so we get a second DCA day that usually includes a sleep in day and pop out to Trader Sams for dinner & drinks day. We haven't gotten to go since 2018 thanks to "The Bug" & work/life events & won't be going till next Feb (Can't miss the HM), so we will be spending 1/2 of the last day in Batuu. I'm not sure how much time anyone else would need, but it would easily tack on to either one of the Disneyland days. Also... RE: Inside Sleeping Beauty Castle... If you happen to be one of the two ladies in there alone with another lady (that being me) and, as you passed my husband at the bottom of the steps on the way out... yes, that man was mine, we had a great laugh at you passing the blame on to me for having been the one passing the copious amount of wind. Our lips are sealed & you shall forever be protected. 🤐🤣🤣🤣

Are there Gluten Free Beignets in Disneyland like there are at Scat Cat's at DisneyWorld?

You forgot to mention one of the BEST PERKS of Genie+ at Disneyland is it includes ALL PhotoPass Photos, not just the rides. Even if you just buy 1 @ $30 a day, its way cheaper than Disney World's Memory Maker. Then you add the fact it includes multiple rides, it's a great value! I was super disappointed Disney World's Genie+ didn't include that and they wanted $75 a day for cast member taken photos. I get they'll yake them for free with your phone, but you don't get any special photos when using your phone.

28:48 - You can also consider flying into Long Beach (LGB). Even smaller/easier than SNA and similar distance to the Disney properties. Primarily Southwest Airlines but also Delta (via Salt Lake City) and Hawaiian.

Burbank and Ontario are other options. I go with SNA, though.

Also Tip for ya, Long Beach is a great airport too, to fly into. Sometimes, well for me anyways, its cheaper then John Wayne, SNA. One other big tip you left out is, if you purchase Genie Plus, you get your pics. Not just your ride, pictures but all the pictures taken by a cast members. So for me getting all bound up, dressing up, its worth it getting it one day just for the pictures.

What was the green drink with the bubbles flying around in it called!? Lol and what about Halloween times?

Tried to get the 3 Perfect Days at Disneyland guide both through the website and the QR code. It said the page was not found and that I had signed up for the Newsletter, which was not my intent.

Thanks AJ. Great video. DLR is by far my favorite Disney destination. You had so many great tips... I could add a bunch more but will just throw out two. I like to rent the cheapest econo-box I can get at Orange County airport (SNA) just so we have the freedom of going to the beach or somewhere else. Yes it can be pricey, but we just like the added convenience. And Trader Sam's has Dole Whip, which you can get after the park closes. :) -

The day I have my Blue Bayou dinner reservation, I go by at lunchtime to ask about the possibility of a dinner table by the water. I think it’s worked most times, but I haven’t tried it post-2020 (they changed the menu around so it’s less appealing for my family now).

51. Don't get sucked into any extras like walking tours or location events (Any Walt/Mainstreet tours or Tomorrowland Terrace viewing). They're not worth the money, they end earlier than you expect based on the brochure, and also do not offer everything the brochure implies. Stay away from these extras! Just enjoy your time at Disneyland.
