Step-by-Step Disneyland Prep is our essential guide to planning a Disneyland Resort visit. We take you through each step of the planning process with guides to tickets, hotels and time saving tricks. Find links to all of the helpful information on this site and take the stress out of planning.
Multiple or single day? Park hopping or single park? Lightning Lane service? Buying tickets for Disneyland means making a series of (possibly overwhelming) decisions. Check-out our guide to ticket types with decision flow-chart.
Want to spend more time experiencing attractions and less time in line? Lightning Lane Multi Pass, Lightning Lane Single Pass and Lightning Lane Premier Pass are paid services that offer just that, but the different options can be confusing. Take a look through our guide for an explanation of these different services and how to use them.
Disneyland’s new rides and popular shows sometimes offer virtual queues: a free attraction reservation service. Sometimes this is the only way to experience the latest ride, so it helps to know how to use them! Read our guide for joining a virtual queue.
Warm churros with the click of a button? Ordering food with the Disneyland app can be very convenient if you understand the steps. Read through our guide, and take advantage of the mobile ordering service at Disneyland Resort.
Are you the kind of planner who finds direct comparisons and charts helpful? Are you curious about the difference between Disneyland Hotel and Pixar Place Hotel? Click here for information on the three official hotels of the Disneyland Resort in chart form.
Where’s the Hub and will it take you to Tomorrowland and an E-Ticket ride? Why is the person helping you called a Cast Member? If you are confused by Disney lingo, search our glossary of Disneyland words and phrases explained in under 101 words.
