ewerk 34442 Posted November 21, 2023 Share Posted November 21, 2023 I had a look at Euro Disney and it wasn't ridiculously expensive but apparently the cost of everything if you're staying onsite is a joke. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wykikitoon 23971 Posted November 21, 2023 Share Posted November 21, 2023 Friends of our went to Disney Florida. Spent a good £15k, probably just to keep up with the Jonses. I know another couple go and they spent a fraction of that. They also went to Euro Disney and did it at a reasonable price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand Cheapest (and best) way we ever got there was booking a nice villa with a pool from one of the many sites that list them and then flying into Tampa and hiring a car. Dont budget to be at Disney every day as there’s loads of other stuff to do and going every day is far too tiring. last 2 weeks in October / first 2 weeks of April is best time weather wise. Always used to be loads of great deals on villas, all within 15 mins of Disney. Personally, purely for Disney stuff, I always preferred Paris as they seemed to cherry pick all the best bits from the many Disney parks when they made it.

Dr Gloom 24415 Posted November 21, 2023 Share Posted November 21, 2023 yeah, but on the other hand it's staffed with moody parisians on minimum wage. not exactly the magical kingdom when you're confronted with gallic shrugs, eye rolling a plenty and people smoking all over the shop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We can get accommodation from Mrs Fish's Aunt and Uncle. We were thinking about getting day tickets, but queueing at the gate doesn't fill me with anything but preternatural dread.

The review here paints the picture the hotel is a 5 star delapidated shit hole with dirty rooms and no running hot water. Plus you might meet Trump.
