If like me you are a Disneyland fresher, you are probably familiar with this dilemma. Which attraction is better, Disneyland Paris or Disneyland in America?
Maybe it isnt a question of which is better, but which is more viable for you to go to? Is money a concern? Do you have a huge family? Do you want to turn the experience into a holiday? All these considerations will shape your final decision.
So what are the pros and cons of each attraction?
Disneyland Paris – Pros
- Practically identical to its American sister
- Only a quick car drive or ferry ride from the UK
- Located in Paris, it is close to other sights and attractions
- Transport to the theme park is quite cheap
Disneyland Paris – Cons
- Whilst it is similar to its counterpart, it is considerably smaller
- The Themepark, like Paris, is reasonably expensive
- The atmosphere maybe isnt captured like it is stateside
Disneyland – Pros
- The original themepark
- It is absolutely huge – there is little chance of boredom
- The home of Disney and all the Disney characters
- The experience – people often return more than once
Disneyland – Cons
- It can cost a pretty penny to get there in the first place. Flights arent that cheap, especially not for a family.
- Some people can find the experience daunting
So how do you make up your mind?
The real question is this; what do you really want out of the experience? Visiting Disneyland Paris might be the easiest option, but will it be the most rewarding? For a truly magical time, Disneyland in the US is likely to offer you much more, but does this justify the extra cost?
If youre going simply for the theme park and nothing else, choose Disneyland Paris. If the park attraction is only part of your adventure, choose Disneyland in the US for that little extra something.
