How many days do you usually stay when visiting DLRP?

[Njut]

I`m curious on how many nights/days you guys usually stay at Disneyland then first visiting the park?
Do you think it`s enough time to do everyting you want to do?

 

[thelittlemermaid83]

I usually stay for 5 days, which means i get everything done usually twice.

The first time we stayed for 2 nights/3days and didn't do loads of things - and that was before they added so much to the Studios.

For a few years we did 3 nights/4 days and got most things done - but only by making the most of EMH and staying until the last possible moment. In the last year we have had 2 trips that were 4 nights/5 days and one that was 5 nights/6 days and then definitely got everything in that we wanted and time for leisurely looks around the Park as well. Bear in mind my family like to do every ride - there is no ride they don't enjoy/are too short to go on - then you can see that is plenty of time to do the lot.

Usually 2 nights/3 days but have also stayed 3 nights/4 days

First time it was 3 days 2 nights and as it was the busy weekend before Easter we found it too little time.
5 days 4 nights is good and you can fit in it a trip to Paris too, 4 days 3 nights for me is ideal if you just want to enjoy the Parks

We just stayed for 4 nights/5 days but our first day was lost due to our flight times - bit rubbish. We didn't arrive until around 19.15 on the first 'day' and then left at 14.00 on the last day so again lost a bit of the day

I would like to do better flight times next time to make more use of the time but I guess you are limited on the times they offer

I did find there were things we didn't have time to do but then we have a 3.5 year old and a 5 month old so although we did try to cram loads in we were a bit limited...

We are not the norm Our visits are between 7 - 14 days
Because it is in the height of summer we don't have to queue since we just come back again later

We stayed for 5 nights last year which was great, fairly relaxed. We remembered thinking at the time that 4 nights would be fine in future.

I guess it comes down to budget though and what time of year you're there. You can fit in more during 2 nights off-peak then 2 nights right before christmas because of the queues.

 

[marcus.ka]

We do 3 nights (at a Disney hotel) and 4 days at the parks. And then we spent after the last day one night near the resort so that allows us to be 4 full days in the parks. With 3 nights and 4 days at the resort we can do everything we want at least twice and we get the right I-am-feeling-like-at-home feeling. If you know what I mean.

In july we did 3nights/4days (on site) it was SUPER busy so EMH really helped us with fantasyland!

We got everything done (except stitch live and animagique) mainly because we had days starting at 8 and going on until midnight. Even with mega queues (20 minutes for the labyrinth!!

By our last dya we were lagging a bit, so were planning on 2 nights/3 days for january but we got a free night!! Hopefully it will be a lot calmer and more relaxing.

 

[wideeyes]

I have done 3 nights x1, 4 nights x 2 and 5 nights x 1. 4 nights is plenty of time to get everything done.

 

[mummyal]

First time we stayed 3 nights, and 2nd time we stayed 4 nights (but we did spend one day in Paris). Next trip, we'll be staying 3 nights. I think 3 nights is just right for us.

 

[plutosbabe]

We`ve been twice,and both times we went for 4 nights/5 days.
We found this was plenty time.
Although a handy hint...both times we got an early flight for the first day and a late evening flight home,which gave us 5 full days in the parks.

 

[jillrobinson]

We've done trips from 2 to 6 full days.
2 days is far too short IMHO, I suppose in all honesty we could do everything in 3 days, but the 6 days was my favourite.

Provisionally planning next trip as a 5 or 6 days one, allowing for the fact that our Cardiff flight won't arrive until 6.20 pm in the evening.

 

[Dianetigger]

The least we have done is 5 nights/6 days and the most was this summer 9 nights/10 days. Much prefered the 9 nights/10 days, it was very busy and meant we could take our time and we managed to do everything we wanted and not at a crazy pace. We went into Paris for the day and spent another day at Val D'Europe and the outlet village without thinking we were missing out on park time (we went into the parks early evening on those days).
Hoping to do the same amount of time next year but it is (at the moment) dependent on a few things.

 

[Ware Bears]

We've done 5 nights/5 days (couldn't call it 6 days as we didn't arrive at the hotel until gone 10pm), 5 nights/6 days twice, 8 nights/9 days and 9 nights/10 days.

To be honest, I think we don't do any more in the longer holidays than we did in the shorter ones, except get to eat in more restaurants and repeat rides obviously but it's nicer to go for longer and not have to rush around. Like our last trip ~ we went to Val d'Europe one morning, there is no way I would give up precious park time if I was on a short trip but on a longer one it's different ........

We also went to Paris one day and Provins another and spent time swimming.

 

[MinnieMouse73]

First 3 trips were 3 nights/4 days, in the summer it was 6 nights but we drove so travelling took longer and we only had a couple of hours in the park the day we arrived. We're doing 5 nights at Christmas although plan to have crossed the channel the night before that at be at DLP by lunchtime on the first day.

Disneyland Paris is much smaller than Disneyworld and we easily see it all with a 3 night stay then transfer to a hotel in Paris for as many days as you can afford.
