Creating The Best Disney Itinerary

By Katina Brady


Who doesn't adore Disney in all its forms? Children and adults alike. The brand is the epitome of fun, laughter and magic. When you are on holiday even if you don't have kids you can add a little Disney itinerary magic to your trip. Continue reading to find out what is available.

The first place to stop is obviously Disneyland, situated some 32 kilometres east of Paris. Unsurprisingly this is the most visited amusement park in Europe. It was opened to the public in 1992 and was aptly named Euro-Disney but this was changed. The park is easily accessible on Eurostar and there are lots of package options for transportation, hotel and resort tickets.

The resort has horse-drawn carriages, Thunder Mountain, you can visit Alice in Wonderland, see Buzz Lightyear and Dumbo, go on some rather hair-raising rides AND meet all your favourite characters as they wander through the park. All topped off by parades and fireworks. In fact, the organisation is the second largest purchaser of explosives; coming second to the US military. What more could you possibly want from a resort?

A winter visit to the UK, USA, or Europe will inevitably tie in with the spectacular which is Disney on Ice. This themed show has characters from popular Disney animation taking to the ice surrounded by colour, music and magic. Every year there is a new theme, with this year's theme being Frozen. A chance to join Elsa, Ana, and cute little Olav dancing to Let it Go and Do you Wanna Build a Snowman. Remember you are in an ice-rink you wear warm clothes until you are warmed by the love and magic surrounding you.

After a day of touring and singing catchy tunes, you will want to sit down for a cup of tea and where better than the Disney Cafe, Harrods? Set on the fourth floor of this exclusive store, you can have tea and cakes, knickerbocker glories or the obligatory Mickey shaped toasties. Even the chairs have Mickey ears on the back. Obviously as it is Harrods it is not cheap but very cute and just right for a treat.

Whilst in London, the next stop is the Disney Store; although they exist all over Europe, the biggest and therefore best in Europe can be found on Oxford Street. Everything you could think of can be found here; DVDs, princess costumes, cuddly plushies, collectable watches and ornaments; in fact if you can brand it then it probably has. You will be served by enthusiastic cast members and entertained by a background of catchy music. Another expensive trip (potentially) but that seems to be part of the magic.

The ideal way of ending a busy themed weekend is to watch the latest animated movie, Hero 6. This is the heart-warming tale of Hiro and a large balloon-like robot, Baymax. They join a group of chums to be crime-fighting heroes.

It is a story of a young boy, Hiro and an over-size inflatable robot, Baymax. Hiro and his friends join Baymax to form a group of super heroes. An enchanting good versus evil movie, with some beautiful scenery and amusing interaction between Baymax and Hiro. What a wonderful end to a magical weekend in Europe!
