going to DLP at Easter!! never been before

[bettina]

Never been to ANY disneyland resort. Looking for lots of advise.
We will be staying off site not very far away.
Do you buy tickets to get in when you get there? or is it better to buy in advance? if so where from?

I have 3 boys twin 8 year old adn an 11 year old. So they're after the rides, 1.4 and 1.2 heights.
They're also really really into Top gear and cars etc. so would like to go to the show thingy where they have cars and bikes racing around, is that a seperate price or all in? do you have to book in advance?

We thought we might do the 'hopper' is it called? and go for 2 days - we're in France for a week but want to do other things like Paris etc.

Any help would be gratefully received we don't want to waste time.
last question, is it worth avoiding the queues and buying the fast track tickets?

many thanks bettina - very excited :yay:

Hello Bettina and welcome to DISboards. :wave:
In work so can't post too much, you can buy tickets in advance from DLRP direct via their website or from a Disney Store or online tickets sales, I'm sure someone will be able to advise you on the best place/prices, or you can buy them on the gate.

The Stuntshow is in Walt Disney Stduios Park, with a hopper ticket you can go back and for between the 2 parks as many times as you want, they're right next door to each other and entry to it is included in your park ticket, all the shows and attractions inside the parks are at no extra cost:goodvibes .

It is worthwhile checking disney's website if you know what days you are going they sometimes have special offers on.
The boys will love the stunt car show and no it is not extra it is all in the price of your ticket.

You will be able to use your tickets to obtain fastpasses.

The stunt show I first saw at DLRP and saw it in WDW last year and it gets better everytime. Your boys will love the show, my OH cant wait to see it again. You dont have to buy tickets in advance, there will be times of the day it will be on and you just turn up about 30 mins before it starts (may vary depending on how busy it is) and grabs some seats.

You can buy 2 day hoppers on the disney site, but I always find you can get tickets fairly cheaply on ebay.

Have a wonderful trip. :dance3:

I had an email about this offer a while ago, seems like it's still running and you don't have to book a holiday with Leger to qualify for the reduced price tickets, because another DISer phoned and got them, when I posted it last time :thumbsup2

Yeah Jill that was me. However these tickets are only valid until 3rd April and the OP is going at easter so dont think they will be valid then.

Thanks again for telling me about the tickets though. :thumbsup2
