How many days to see DL and DCA?

HOW MANY DAYS DOES IT TAKE TO SEE BOTH PARKS? hOW DOES IT COMPARE TO WDW?

To see everything you need at least 3 days more is actually better.


There are some rides the same, some rides that are different. The 2 parks are really close together. Just walk out of one and into another. No transit needed. Just your own 2 feet.

3 is the magic number.... 2 for DL and 1 for DCA

Disneyland: 3 days (2 for Disneyland, 1 for Calfornia Adventure)

Walt Disney World: 7 days (2 for Magic Kingdom, 2 for Studios, 2 for Epcot, 1 for AK - not including water parks and Downtown Disney. You might get away a day less on the Studios, but with Fantasmic and the day parade, it can be tight.

Disneyland Paris: 3 days (2 for Disneyland, 1 for the Studios).

I agree that three days is the minimum. Four is better.

I agree.

& i would add that one should consider park hopping everyday. So basically it's 1/3 of the day in DCA..... & 2/3'rds in DL.....every day.....(for 3 1/2 to 5 days).

We like to do DL in the morning, CA in the afternoons, then back to DL again. Even at 3 days there are things we didn't get to. Part of the problem was we had to ride the Matterhorn at least 10 times but still 4 days would have been better.

When it was just the two of us, 3 was perfect (we were bored with any more!). But with a little one, 3 days hasn't been enough to get everything done since we don't stay super late and we frequently go back for an afternoon nap. There are more rides (and repeated rides) DS wants to go on and more characters we have to stalk.

So I guess it depends on your age(s).
