Hey guys, I've been reading through a lot of the DLP FAQ pages and finding some great info. I still have so many questions. My wife and I are visiting Europe for the first time from the US. It will be our 10th anniversary trip. We are doing the Italy Adventures by Disney and then hitting DLP for 3-3.5 days, 4 nights. We are very experienced WDW travelers and travel frequently in general (mostly withing the US but some internationally) but never to Europe.
Our travel dates for DLP are April 30-May 4.
So my first question is what is the best way to get to DLP from Venice? Obviously Flying would be quicker than taking the train, but is the train ride as picturesque as I would imagine. Anyone with any experience taking a train from northern Italy to DLP, I would love some insight.
We are leaning toward booking 4 nights at the Disneyland Hotel, We definitely want to take a day to go into Paris and see some sights, but we like the idea of only going through the check in/checkout process once. Are there any good day tour options from DLP, or would you guys suggest going it on our own?
Also, do you think we would be better off splitting out 4 nights into two in central Paris and 2 in DLP? We are hesitant to do this after 3 hotels in a week in Italy with ABD, but could be talked into it.
Any can't be missed dining reservations we should try to make in advance?
The "Half Board" thing really confused me at first, but basically its just a meal plan with one meal per day? Do you guys know if its lock in by day, or can we used Tuesday and Wednesday's voucher for 2 meals on Wednesday if we skip meals on Tuesday?
The reviews say yes on Buffalo Bill , does this compare at all to Hoop De Doo in WDW?
Any other general advice for travelers from America is appreciated.
Thanks in advance!
