Disneyland - 2 Days Enough?

[jackrabbit000]

We're going to LA for a week and I'm wondering if 2 days is enough for Disneyland. Taking 2 kids 16 and 13 with us. Thanks in advance.

Yes, i think 2 days is enough for Disneyland. I wish your happy traveling. :)

Just curious if you have any suggestions for where to get a good deal on tickets to Disneyland. We would be interested in visiting for one day only and this would be in mid-September. Thanks.

Yes, 2 days is long enough. If you get there early and make the most of your Fast Passes, you'll do fine.

`Yes, two day is long enough. Will be long day though.

Are you doing the Adventure park?

If yes, it is about a half day.

Get a park hopper for one day, then just a disney pass the next. Will be a little cheaper that way.

Thanks for the replies. Looks like we're just going to do 2 days at Disneyland, didn't plan on going to DCA this time. Universal Studios I bought the second day free pass but will probably only go for one day. We're in LA for 5 days and then off to San Diego for 5. Don't really want to spend all of our time in amusement parks.

2 days should definitely be enough then.

1 day no, 2 day maybe, 3 enough but you'll be overwelmed tho so 2 is a good amount (that's what i did last time)
it's a small world after all :)

We found two days was enough to go through the whole thing (Disneyland + California Adventure). I seem to recall our passes gave us early access one day which really helped with the lines. Using this and your fast-pass will work well. I didn't find Universal was a two day activity, one day was more than enough.


I'd highly recommend staying at a hotel right near the park. We stayed at one just outside the park gates and we were back within a minute or two of leaving the park. Nothing is worse than having a long bus/shuttle ride after a long day in the park.

Well, we just did our first day at Disney. Long day from 8:00am to 10:00pm. Man was it hot, around 38C today and not a cloud in the sky. I don't know how these guys down here can stand the heat and humidity. But definitely, 2 days would be enough for Disneyland. But if you plan on going to California Adventure you might need a 3rd day but can be done in 2 but you will be rushing it. Fast Pass is the way to go at the park. We're staying at the Red Lion Hotel, rooms are nice, really clean and the staff is awesome. There's a small fridge, microwave, and a Keurig coffee maker. 42" flat screen TV on Direct TV satellite and free wireless wifi and wired hi speed Internet. Hot buffet breakfast is free for 2 adults and $9.95 for children over 10 yrs old. Hotel is a 10-15 minute walk to the main gate. Hotel costs $144/night and the only drawback is the $16/night for parking but most hotels charge for parking here anyways. But, I think I getting a bit too old for Space Mountain. LOL
