Things that you could do in Disneyland Paris (that you never thought you could)

OK. So we all know that you can get a selfie outside of Sleeping Beauty Castle or ride Big Thunder Mountain but what about those little things that you had 0 idea? Well this is where this little guide comes in.

1. Have a VIP Tour of Disneyland Park.

Do you have a special occasion coming up? Do you have a little bit more money in your bank? Are you are the ultimate Disney fan and really want to make the most of your holiday? If you answered yes, then a VIP tour is for you. 

The VIP tour currently costs 274 euros per person (including park tickets and taxes) if you are part of a group of 10 going in low season (you can see what is a low/high season here). This is for 5 hours and includes a personalised visit according to your group's needs, priority access to your favourite rides and attractions and a reserved VIP area for all shows, parades and night-time spectaculars. 

You can book this experience via Disney Special Activities  which also offers in room celebrations for rooms at the Disneyland Hotel, Compass Club rooms at Newport Bay and Empire State rooms at Hotel New-York. 

Speaking of Disney Special Activities...

2. You can propose to your love one.

Getting married is now a VERY big deal, which is understandable because most people only want to do it once (no offence to any divorcees or my polygamous readers). Disneyland Paris knows this and now offers magical packages to help you tell the love of your life that you like it and want to put a ring on it. Passport has a really good entry talking about their experience which sounds absolutely fantastic. 

Now I just need to find myself a husband or wife and then I start planning my proposal...


3. Learn to dance at Disney Village

Every Tuesday, Wednesday and Sunday, you can visit Billy Bob's Country and Western Saloon and learn how to dance. Depending on the day, you can learn salsa, rock or line-dancing and could potentially have dinner afterwards (since the buffet is on the meal plan). You can find out what time the lessons take place here

4. Ride a pony (tiddlywinks only. Sorry adults).

Yes, you read that correctly. You can ride a pony at Disneyland Paris. In order to do this, you need to head to Hotel Cheyenne. This hotel can be accessed by catching the specialist shuttle next to the train station or walking 20 minutes going via Disney Village. 

This activity is seasonal so don't make the trek if you are staying in the middle of January. In addition, there is a small fee so budget 20-30 euro per rider if your tiddlywink really wants to ride a pony.

5. Celebrate Pride

If you identify as LGBTQ+ or are a proud ally, then this event is for you. On the 1st June, Disneyland Paris has an exclusive party from 8pm-2am taking place at Walt Disney Studio to celebrate the start of Pride Month. This party features exclusive parades, quieter wait times for some of the rides, music and more. 

Price wise, you can do a whole package at Davy Crockett Ranch for £426 per person for a group of 6. This includes accommodation from the 31st May-3rd June, a full board meal plan at Standard level, park tickets and entry to Magical Pride. 

So gather your party people and put down your deposit now.

The Lucky Nugget Saloon

Fact-File Location: Disneyland Park/ Frontierland  Type of restaurant: Currently table service (I'll explain the currently in this review).  Cost: 23 euro for an adult combo meal, 13 euro for a children's meal and 8 euro for an afternoon treat. Option to reserve a table : No. Character Dining : Yes (signature experience only), Menus for anywhere change. This allows a fresh experience for the diners and thus allows more business for the restaurant. However, changing the type of restaurant you are is a completely different beast. During the last 5-10 years, The Lucky Nugget Saloon  has been a character dining buffet, a Tex-Mex buffet, a counter service eatery and now a table service restaurant that offers afternoon tea with the Disney characters.  This means that for the first time, I can't truly give you a 100% accurate review when it comes to the food because what I have personally experienced here, isn't recent enough to be justified with these new...
