After we uploaded this video it got to our attention that Colonel Hathi’s Pizza Outpost in the Disneyland park was due for “reimagining”. It will be re-opening as a character dining location, due in Summer/Fall 2019!

Here are the timings from the video for everyone :)
1:07 saving money on hotels
5:44 saving money on food
8:30 saving on (entry) tickets
11:36 extra savings in DLP
Let's not forget the really low budget hotels in the area, like F1 or Etap, for about 30€ a night. At about 10 minutes away.
No matter how much I try, I always end up giving Disney parks all my money! When I save on one thing, I just spend it on another lol
Thank you guys SO much for these videos! They are fantastic advice - going next week for the first time and have learned so much from ye! :) I love how excited and enthusiastic you both are! Happy Many More trails to Main Street! :) x
The best trick of saving money is being invited by an annual pass holder to buy an annual pass. It works like this: there is a forum on which a lot of annual pass holders are a member. They mention the period they are in the park. You contact the member of the same period they say they are at the park. You make arrangements of meeting (inside the park). You go together to the desk (where you buy the annual passes) and say you all are friends (!). This way you get at least a 10% discount on the annual pass and the people of the forum will get point which they can use for extending their passes. The price of the tickets you needed for the initial entrance will be subtracted of the annual passes (for some reason except the parking ticket). But it saves a lot of money and it's a win-win!
Hi Heico, Indeed. that's a great way to save money. It was a tip we got from Troj TV and used it to get their annual passes. Thanks for sharing!
Love your videos! Hello Mikey cat! Thank you for the tips. I have annual pass to Disneyworld. Going to Disneyland Paris in February 2020. First trip to Europe and to DLP.
You guys are my favorite DLP vloggers!
My Mum & me when DLP in September & instead of buying their breakfast we just brought the 30p porridge pots and took them with us! Cast members aren’t likely to charge you for a cup of hot water so that was a great way for us to save money🙌🏼
Thanks for the tips!💗
We have booked at the B&B hotel! Hopefully it will be a nice stay! First time in Disneyland in a couple of days! Ik vind jullie filmpjes echt top!
thanks for the advice guys. I can't wait to visit disney in February 💓 hope to see you guys there xx
You're welcome! Nice to hear that our video's were helpful. Perhaps"We'll see you in Mainstreet!"
I loved all of the added effects in this video!
Thank you! We're getting in to a whole new level;-)
Yay thanks for the tips I’m going to dlp this May so these should come in handy! X
Hi Maisie Emily, Glad to hear the video's were helpful and have fun in DLP!
Thanks guys for the tips
Thank you so much for this video
Hi you have some great tips. I really enjoy watching you both explore the parks. I'm visiting again in February and staying in a golden forest room at Sequoia lodge and can't wait.
In the past I've stayed at the Cheyene and at the Disneyland hotel, but, I've always liked how the Sequoia looked and after watching one of your other videos I decided to book and try it out.
Another good tip for booking a stay is to phone the park direct and book, anytime I've done this I nearly always get better prices than through the website or through agents, the last time we saved enough over the five days to upgrade to half board premium meal plan from the the cheaper meal plan we had initially intended on booking and got to do all the character meals, it was fab.
Thank you both for keeping me in the Disney spirit
Hi Fiona, thanks for sharing your tip about calling directly to Disney. We also like Sequoia Lodge, especially in winter. so cozy!
Amazing vídeo Thanks guys
Hey, weer zeer een leuke filmpje en tips :-) hebben jullie ervaringen met de site DLP kaarten (NL). Zij bieden kortingen op tickets en jaarpassen. Veel plezier in het disneyland hotel!
you guys come across just so kind and lovely!
Hi Olivia, Thank you!
Love the sat down video style! Cute set up and editing ❤ hope you guys are fine xx
Hi Mariekhalife, thanks! Yes we are fine. Stay tuned for new adventures!
I found a very convenient and cheap hotel in Bussy-Saint-Georges. 700 yards from the station.
Also 3 Euro train ticket.
It's called B&B hotel Bussy-Saint-Georges. I hope I got it right ! It's also 24 hour check and pet friendly xD
Cowboy Cookout is our go to for food!! It's so cheap for the food you get x
great tips ^^ I try to go to DLP this year for the very first time (never been to any disney land before...) and I'll be travelling alone,so...yeah finding a cheap hotel is always a thing but now I have some to choose from ^^
Hello Honeytoast, First time Disney park! Glad to hear our video gave you some ideas. And there are many more hotels to choose from. Have you read the comment by Jiyu? Bussy Saint Georges. Does mean metro tickets, no shuttle. We haven't tried that. Have fun in DLP!!!
You both have a complete blueprint of DLP on everything, awesome and you both rock. With love from India .
धन्यवाद
Volgens mij is voor een grotere familie de Davy Crockett Ranch ook best een goedkoop alternatief! Leuke video in ieder geval :)
MrTjoeme ben je daar geweest? Hoe was je ervaring voor reizen erheen? Wat ik van de video uithaal is dat je beter kunt vermijden?
Hey guys! Thank you for this awesome video, it's great to hear advice from other people to be able to save your money for different things that you want to use the money for :)
In March, my friends and I are going to visit Disneyland Paris! It will be my third time there and I'm super excited for it!
I wanted to share how we were able to save some money every time we have been there since 2016. We always booked our hotel through the Disneyland Paris website and also stayed at a Disney hotel - The Davy Crockett Ranch. It's the cheapest of the Disney Hotels but still a very decent and nice acommodation either way. You do need to come by car, though, as there is not shuttle bus. But it's only a 15 minute car ride and it's fun to listen to your favorite songs in the morning while you're on your way to Disneyland!
We always booked our stay once we saw that there was an advertised discount of around 20-25% for stays in a certain timeframe and in a Disney Hotel. The cabins of the Davy Crockett Ranch can house up to 6 people, they come with two bathrooms and a small kitchen where you can easily prepare your meals for the day and don't have to spend extra money in the parks.
Also included in the booking is half-pension - meaning you get a free amazing breakfast (which you have to get by yourself in the mornings though) and coupons for either lunch or dinner in a restaurant in the park. We found that we barely bought any food in the parks and also brought our own. As the tickets for the parks are included when you're staying at a Disneyland hotel - as is the parking for each day - we only had to pay around 350-80 euros for a 5 day vacation in Disneyland - since we split the whole price through 4 people.
I would always recommend this method as you can experience the magic of a Disney hotel while also saving money in the process :) you also have the extra magic hours!
Hope that this will maybe help someone! :)
Hello Annie, thank you for your detailed comment. Elise also has stayed at the Davy Crockett Ranch once. Actually it was at her very first visit to DLP in 1993! Back then there was a shuttle bus available. We think that your reply certainly will help others plan their DLP vacation!
This is very very useful! THANK YOU!!
Hello Guksack, You're welcome!!
We stayed at high parc a few years ago.
It’s pretty good. And you can even walk to the parks.
That's good to know! Have fun this summer in Disney World. We hope to visit those parks soon as well.
Last September we went in an extreme cheapskate mode! We booked a little apartment around Val d´Europe (one station away from the park) via AirBnB. We would always have a big breakfast, make sure to have lots of snacks with us and since the apartment had a kitchen, we were also eating a lot for dinner after the day at the park. As a result, the only thing we ´ate´ at the park was a dole whip, shake at Victoria´s and an ice cream. To be honest I liked it so much more than wasting time waiting in the queues at counter service restaurants.
Hi there! Sounds like you've had a great time. Especially saving time on not waiting in line for the counter service restaurants. Which shake did you get at Victoria's?! Thanks for you comment!
My sister in law and I have just come back from a Weekend in Disney Paris :) we stayed at the b&b JUST outside of the park and for a 2 star hotel it was pretty good, free shuttle buses to and from the park every 20 mins :) rooms were very nice aswell :)
Hi Laura, did you see our B&B hotel video?! czcams.com/video/N__aO1LWz5c/video.html It is a good budget option indeed. Thanks for watching!
Thank you but love staying Disney hotels going twice this year
This video was really helpful. I changed my hotel reservation to one with a free shuttle service. Thank you.
Hi BH, glad to hear the video was helpful! May I ask which hotel you chose?
Yes, I chose the Kyriad Disneyland. Have you stayed there before?
oooooh maybe I can afford to go more than once! I just booked my first trip with a friend for november last week, not knowing these tips.. I envy you guys haha. Thalys is expensiveee. On the other hand, november is great! I actually booked my trip (unknowingly) starting on the day disney turns on the christmas lights, so that will definently be worth it!!
What day do they start Christmas lights?
Thanks for your tip about changing the language settings! Just changed into German and it saved me €125,-. :)
still waiting for best souvenir video.. love you guys..
When we are at Disneyland Paris, suddenly everything looks like the perfect souvenir ;-)
Great tips! I hope to see more vlogs from your 'studio' ;-)
You're welcome!
Hello Elise and Sven , I am really enjoying watching your vlogs on Disney land Paris!
My family and I have booked to stay at Les Villages Nature Paris while visiting Disney Land Paris in the summer. I was wondering if you have ever stayed their? As I would like some tips on taking the paying shuttle to Disney land Paris from Villages Nature and a review on this new Disney Disney addition.
Hope to here back from you 😊
Best wishes from
Melanie x
Hello Melanie, thank you for watching our videos :-) We haven't stayed at Village Natures yet, so unfortunately we can't give you any advice on this. We hope our other videos will be helpful nevertheless :-D
this video is for me 😄
Thank you for these tips. I also checked out the calendar, it is going to be 'occupied' when we go, so happy to see that it isn't the busiest time. That is the unlucky thing about kids, going during school holidays, haha.
I am wondering, do you have any tips on the dining plans in DLP? I am trying to figure out the best option for us when we go. Hmmm....
Hi Bobbi Jo!!!! About the Dining plans, we havent done a booking with dining plan in years. But have a look at the menu's and check which restaurant gets you the most for your dining plan vouchers.(www.discoverthemagic.nl/disneyland-paris/praktische-informatie-paris/restaurant-menus-paris) .Look for the dining plan logo on the menu and compare.
Have fun!!!!!
First! Love your vids
Thanks!
Hi do you have a calendar link that is english? Thank you for all the info, i suscribed to your channel because your videos are very helpful.
Hi Joe, thank you for subscribing to our channel :-D To find a calendar in English, simply type "low high season disneyland Paris" in Google and look at the images. You'll find some calendars pretty easy :-)
The cat 😻😻😻
When I went (dec27 2017- jan1 2018) I stayed at a hotel right next to Val d Europe shopping mall and it was an aparthotel. It was my parents, husband and daughter. We had a kitchen to prepare breakfast and sandwiches/snacks that we took into the parks. It was cheaper than the Disney hotels. It was great because the train station was across the street so we left our car at the hotel and took the train to Disney. It was 2 euros or less per person per trip and it was a 3 minute ride (only 1 stop). Trains ran frequently. I think per night we paid about 195 euros for a family suite (again, there were 5 of us)
Hi Karideplov, sounds really great! We heard of that hotel as well. Thank you for sharing your story.
Ik ben er ook weer bij 😁 heb de notificaties aanstaan Ofc
Top!
Another great video! I've stayed at the Etap before. I think it's one train stop away and very cheap. But it is way outside the Disney bubble, but still fun. Your tip about Mickey leaving presents in the room is a great one. My son (19) remembers every single one of those presents, and none of the ones we bought in the stores.
Yikes! :-0 hahaha! Thanks for your comment and nice to hear that your son has such fond memory's of the gifts he received !
Hey guys!I just have a question,whats the best way to go from paris to disneyland?
Hey guys, I love your videos, they are a great help to plan my next Disney trip :-) My money saving tip: try a foreign Disney website. For example if you are from the Netherlands check the Belgian / French / German website. A couple of years ago it saved me about €150 (for 2 adults) because there was a school holiday in my country and no holiday in the country I used to book my trip. (hotel & tickets)
Hello Petra, Glad to hear that our video's were of use! AND great tip from you as well! Think it's very useful for our other viewers! Cheers for sharing!!!
7:15 - The falafel you are talking about was not that good when I tried it (very dry), but it was very very crowded at the food oulet at this moment.. That might be have been the issue, since they make it hand made. :-)
Hi Boyd, sorry to hear that the falafel wasn't as tasty as you hoped it would be. busyness at some counter service restaurants can influence the quality :-(
Hi, great videos! Do you have any experience with the B&B Disneyland Hotel and/or with Picniq tickets for purchasing discounted park tickets? If so, would you recommend them?
Hi Realife, thank you for your comment! We do not have any experience with the B&B (yet). The hotel is on our radar for a visit/stay. When? We don't know. About the Picnic tickets; It's the first time that we hear about his option. Had a quick look and seems legit. Even has the seal of approval from Disney.... BUT as we didn't made use of this website we really cannot say if it's bad or good. Maybe one of the readers of this post can give an answer?
@@SeeYouInMainstreet Thank you so much for your reply! Would love to hear your future review of B&B
13:00 is it just me or should they have small shops in waiting queues? It would be sooooo handy! (Lol, this isn’t very comparing with the theme of this video haha)
We booked our stay early, so it was on offer. We got 25% off our room and we got a free half board package with it. We always wanted to go to the Disney Hotel, so we are finally doing it now. This offer made it possible for us to do. I know for sure we don't have to spend a lot of money on food when we are at the park, because our breakfast buffet and dinner will fill us all up. We don't have little kids with us, so everyone buys their own souvenirs.
If your kids really want something from the shops in dlp, give them a giftcard with a certain amount of money on there, rather than just the money. The giftcard already feels like a present and I know from a few friends that their kids find it easier to accept the amount they can spend when it's with a giftcard. They know their parents have more money in their wallets, so they will push a bit more if they find something that is over their budget.
Hi Denise, wow the Disney Hotel!!! That's wonderfull! And the tip about the giftcard is great1 Thanks for sharing!,
PS: The Disneyland Hotel is great. Stay tuned for a video about that ;-)
thanks for your videos
we are going to Disneyland París on june18 and 19 , one day the walt park the other day disney park ( 4 persons family) .I can see that there s cheaper to buy two separate orders of special mini tickets ( 51 euros per day so 102 euros per person 2 days) than the option of two days two park ( 169 euros 2 days per person)
Is it allowed to go to the Parks buying special mini tickets for two days separately, instead of multi days?
Hi there, We do not know. Sorry. It seems that you can not park hop.
Een hele video toegewijd aan dingen die veeeel disney bezoekers (vooral mensen die voor het eerst komen) over het hoofd zien. Dingen die echt alleen de hardcore Disneyland bezoekers ontdekt hebben (food, shops, secret menu, secret codes for extra service things, verscholen bezienswaardigheden, extra's in het hotel zoals een Starbucks, geheime gangen en attracties. ( dat Aladdin museum dingetje bijvoorbeeld. Ik vind het toch cute) Vanalles dat mensen misschien niet eens wisten over Disneyland. Ik kwam er bijvoorbeeld na meerdere jaren Disneyland bezoeken pas achter dat dat Casey Jr treintje en de Storybook attractie bestaan
I just spent 900 odd on flights, santa fe in disney and Park tickets and half board, photo package and character breakfast. I think I got a good deal I don't care if its a lot it's for me and my son so it's worth it
Don't showoff
Hey! Ik wilde graag weten wat jullie favoriete gedeelte is in het park? (Fantasyland, discoveryland etc.)
Hallo Maud, oei! da's een lastige! Voor Elise is het Adventureland. Voor mij .... Ik weet wel wat mijn minst favorite deel is: De parkeerplaats ;-)
When are the photographers by the castle/main street to take pictures, all day or just certain times?
Sometimes they’re there and sometimes there not ... 🤷🏼♀️ you just have to wait and see 🤨
Mum and I did have our eye on pizza outpost but we went for Bella Notte instead
Heey, Wanneer zijn jullie weer in Disneyland Paris? Ik ben er binnenkort ook weer 😃😃
Hoi Clarrissa, we zijn net terug! Elise is nu de nieuwe video aan het editen en ik beantwoord jullie reacties. dus stay tuned for new adventures!
Ok, Southern Californian checking in. I don’t know what that green stuff was that you called guacamole, but I can assure you that absolutely, under no circumstances, should be referred to as guacamole.
Hi Nikki, YOU ARE ABSOLUTELY CORRECT! But, what you've seen in the video is quite tasty. I guess Disney can't keep freshly made guacamole stay fresh long enough. Maybe they should call it 'the green stuff' ;-p.
by the way I'm always looking for good guacamole recipes. As you are from SoCal, maybe you want to share one? Thanks for your comment!
Best tip: buy a package deal from the disneyland site, and change the country of origin! Sometimes choosing a country where they don't have a vacation period save up to 40%.
Example: I booked from the German site once and in stead of paying 1250 for 5 days/4 nights with 2 adults and 2 kids, I only paid 750 (Hotel Cheyenne). That is 500 additional pocket money to spend of food and souvenirs.

Are disneyland creditcards available in hotels in paris as it is in Florida?
Hi Katherine, no unfortunately we don’t have these credit cards in Disneyland Paris.
Hey Guys, we did so and put a present every day in the morning on the bed of our kids, which we bought online and not in the park.
Hi Sarah, nice to hear that you already implemented that tip!
is the ticket applicable to all rides already or you have to pay per ride?
Hi Lhanz, the admission ticket to the park does includes all the rides.
Gewldig
Nederlanders en ook vegetariërs? Ik denk dat ik van jullie houd. :-)
P.S. I am a former Disneyland California cast member. So good to see others enjoying the Disney magic. :-D
Good day Colonel! Great to hear that you like our video's and yes we do love the Disney Magic!
Wait i once ate the falafel and thats the only food i ever thrown away in dlp ahha it was so bitter.... and i normally love falafel and hummus lol
Hi Lysanne, to bad the falafel wasn't any good. Did you went back and ask for a new one? By the way; best falafel I ever had was at King Falafel in Den Haag!
Hi Sven and Elise! I'm planning on taking my girlfriend to disney as a suprise.. I'm probably going to New Port Bay Club and maybe getting a Photopass+.. do you guys have any idea on a nice way to make it clear to her that we are going there? Thanks a lot for the amazing videos you make! Thanks to those videos I can't wait to leave! (Also: if you have any tips for students going to DLP, go ahead!)
Hi Ruben, what a lovely gesture! There are many ways to surprise your girlfriend with a Disney trip. Have looked on CZcams for inspiration? Type 'best disney reveals' and you'll get some ideas. Remember you don't have to go overboard with the presentation, the fact that you two are going to Disney is the most important. If your buget allows a Photopass+, go for it. Good luck and have a great time in Disneyland Paris!
@@SeeYouInMainstreet when I added the photopass+ to my booking, it says 74 euros or something, but I saw CZcamsrs with a photopass for a whole year and it was around 30 euros? Am I getting scammed?
I think not. The Photopass+ you purchased also valid for 1 year . the 39,99 photo pass is for the ride attractions only.
@@SeeYouInMainstreet thanks a lot for making this clear, there isn't much information available about the photopasses..
Do you know if there are any new snacks for 2019 xxxx
Hi Bingbrittain, Every season has it's own unique snacks. So it depends when you are visiting the parks. At the moment Legends of the Force has new snacks and are different than last years! So yes 2019 has NEW snacks!!
@@SeeYouInMainstreet perfect thanks so much xxxx
Don’t forget centerparcs I like to go for 5 working days at the time and have some chill time there
We've just been. It was interesting...
@@SeeYouInMainstreet interesting good or bad ? Was there 4 years ago for the last time. And plan to go in January again hoping for snow (snow and Disney have something megical)
And are you going to release a video of that ? 😃
Waar kan je de kalender vinden 😍
Sorry, was ik even vergeten.. Staat nu onderaan de video in de omschrijving :-D
Wanneer gaan jullie weer ik ga 28 januari heen en blijf dan t/m 10 feb
Hi Disney Fan, we zijn net terug! Maar, wow, so lang naar DLP!! Gaaf hoor!
@@SeeYouInMainstreet komt ook door me werk dus alle korter bezoeken die ik normaal zou doen allemaal bij elkaar. ik werk namelijk op de kermis en reis het hele land is ook leuk maar toch weinig tijd om dan tussen door naar disney te gaan.
What is the average price for mickey eats as I want to get th em by have 40 euros for souvenirs. I’m going in 9 days!
Hi! The average price is around 15 to 20 euro's :-) You can also make your own ears! ;-) Have fun in Disneyland Paris!!
Thank you!
Mijn ouders hebben een camper dus voordat ik een jaarpas neem vraag ik even of ik hem af en toe mag lenen, en hopen dat er was campingen in de buurt zijn 🙏🏻🙏🏻
Wist je dat je zelfs met je camper op de parkeerplaats van Disneyland mag staan? Daar hebben ze speciale plaatsen voor. Google maar eens 😉
@@SeeYouInMainstreet Ik zag het inderdaad! Maar helaas is daar geen elektriciteit dus ik zal wel af en toe ergens naartoe moeten om alles op te laden 😂 Maar het scheelt wel dat het niet duur is in combinatie met een jaarpas 🎉
Can we put food in our handbag?
Yes you can!
I think you missed something... I've heard Pizza Outpost is closed...
I guess you're right .... too bad!
Zijn jullie Nederlands?
just by the title i knew you were Dutch. Then i heard the accent as well..
👋🏻🙏🏻👍🏻👍🏻
I know just want kids to see their faces when they see what Mickey left them.
it could be me... but you 2 sound dutch? at least the woman does sound dutch, yet speaks it without any issue. its really weird but somehow I feel like I just know my fellow dutch people xD?
Wij gaan in April weer en verblijven op camping Le Soleil (www.campinglesoleil.com) ongeveer 10 minuten van het park en betalen +/- 340 euro voor 4 nachten in een Mobile Home. Echte aanrader!
What’s your favorite Disneyland Paris hotel?
Het Disneyland Hotel ;-P
Wait... 800 dollars for 2 nights at the Disney hotel?????????????? Omg I'm going to have to rethink my honeymoon plans... Ugh this sucks...
Is she quite a bit older than him? It looks like it. Cute couple though.
Noooo these falafel were terrible !!! And I love falafel 🤷🏻♀️
It is misleading not to mention that park tickets are included for both days of one night in Disney hotels and also not to compare a value Disney hotel like the Santa Fe.
Hi Douglas, Indeed, we forgot to mention that entry tickets are included with your hotel stay. Thank you for mentioning this. We are now so accustomed to our Annual passes that we look more towards the room only prices. The gesture of this video is to look beyond the the disney hotels them selfs and also to be vigilante to compare all hotels with there pro's and cons in the form of service and tickets in- or excluded. In other words do your homework to get the most our of your budget. Thanks again for your comment!
Dont think they were misleading at all very informative and likeable people
I smell Dutch
If I may suggest ... The word you keep using is negative .... If I were you I would say affordable instead of cheap
I am not a cheapskate I am on Disability so I don’t have as much money to play with
Why are you guys trying to use a English accent why you are clearly Dutch? Instead it sound more American btw….
