Before you leave for your trip to Euro Disney this year, intent on some downtime for yourself and your partner, and some fun times for the kids, make sure you have planned all you can and are well prepared for the trip.
Check out the parks website, and familiarise yourself with the various areas. Decide which attractions you want to see most, and leave lots of room for long queues, last minute changes of plan and extra activities. A holiday must be fun, so do not plan the spontaneity out of it. On the other hand you will need some structure or risk losing out on seeing some of the best sights or enjoying the best rides.
Buy the best value tickets you can some allow you to go to visit more than one park on any given day, saving you money on entry. Also keep an eye open for special deals. Out of season tickets may also cost less, and the park will be easier to navigate with fewer crowds.
Make sure you have great travel insurance policy and that the kids have packed properly. Insurance for the whole family can be arranged from a good travel insurance provider. Prepare for the flight and double check your hotel booking. Try to get a hotel close to Euro Disney, as this will eliminate a lot of wasted time spent in traffic.
Book certain events in advance to avoid disappointment and so that you can plan your days around these special events. Visit the park early in the morning to get a seat on the best rides, then a take a break and relax during the busiest parts of the day, before heading back in the cool of the evening for some more fun.
Ask your hotel for babysitting services or book your youngsters into a kids club for the evening so you can relax and spend some parents time alone. Last but not least: remember where you parked your car, as some of the parking areas are simply vast.
