Disneyland Resort Paris for early birds!
Are you planning a trip to Disneyland Resort Paris? Then here is a tip from me to start the day before the rest of the park guests.
Get an Annual Dream Pass, it is worth getting the pass from the moment you stay 3 days or more. Not only will you have unlimited access for a year but also get a 20% Discount voucher for 1 meal and a 20% discount voucher good for a whole day of shopping. But the one thing so many forget about is the early entry option.
Show your Annual Dream Pass and enter the park one hour before the other guests. You will be able to walk onto Mainstreet on your own and have most of Fantasyland to yourself. The only other guests in the land are the once having breakfast in the park. You will have 1 hour to enjoy Fantasyland and all its beauty on your own.
Remember, there is more then rides alone when visiting the park and when using the option to enter the park 1 hour before the general public this is what should play a major role in your decision to go to the park early as the rides will not be open. Only 2 rides will open about 30 minutes before the rope drop. Still, once inside you can take many pictures of all the beauty before entering the empty queue of the rides that will open.
One of these rides is always Peter Pan. With a general queue of 1 hour and more during normal operation hours and with Fastpass gone by the early afternoon this is a real winner for the early birds. Not only can you enjoy the ride 30 minutes before the other guest, you will also have the option to do it again, and again, and again…
Check your watch and decide what ride to do once regular park hours begin and you would make it out there together with the first guests that entered after rope drop. (I have maid it to Big Thunder Mountain as the first person once using this trick) Going to “Pirates of the Caribbean” is also a good idea to visit as a first attraction during the start of the regular opening hours. While most people didn’t make it into the park that far yet you’ll be right next to it after finishing Peter Pan. With a little bit of luck you’ll have a boat to yourself and with even a little more luck you could be staying on for a second ride…
The only downside to this; you’ll have to be able to get out your warm and comfortable bed… ![]()

The much easyer way to get this is just: Get your Breakfeast in the park.
And to be true - its nice for the “just as much rides just as most often just as fast enough” - but it isn’t disney-feeling.
