    I cant remember ever coming to the Royal Hall in my childhood trip to DIsney but seeing the little one get so excited to see the Princesses was priceless! Before heading inside we stood in line to meet the Princess Jasmine and Aladdin and took a family picture with them before going in line to see the who was at home in the Royal Hall. Inside we met Cinderlla, Princess Tiana who was my granddaughters favorite, and Snow White who all of my girls loved. Snow White told the little one to be sure to make a wish in her wishing well before we left the Castle and because of her promise to the Princess we made sure to check that off the list. Have your photopass ready for this one because you will want a family picture with your family's favorite Princess for sure.

    Fantasy Faire is a cute and quaint area off to the side of the castle, here you can see the beautiful Rapunzel Tower light up, have some yummy goodies at Maurice's Treat, catch a cute show at the Royal Theatre or fulfill your dreams and tap into your inner child (if you're not a child) by visiting the Princesses at the Royall Hall. Also if you're lucky you might catch Gaston roaming around! The Royal Hall, I can finally cross this off of my list!! All of the years I've been going to Disneyland and I've never stepped foot in here (partly because of the hour long line I always see ugh). I casually got there right when they opened and there was only a 5 min wait, I might have even wait 20 minutes to see my fav princess Ariel. Having never been here I wasn't sure what to expect, I thought you just take a picture with one Princess and that's all. Wrong! I was able to meet three Princesses, Elena of Avalor, Ariel and Snow White. I find this way better than lining up to take a pic with Mickey or Goofy because the Princesses are very personable, they interact with you and get to know you a little all while getting your pictures taken. As a child I don't recall experiencing this or taking pictures with my favorite Princess so it was definitely an experience and I would gladly go again to see different Princesses as they are different everyday. The Royal Theatre is currently showing a Beauty and the Beast themed show in honor of the upcoming release of the live action movie as well as the transformation in Fantasyland. Maurice's Treats is one of those food stands that is somewhat hidden and hardly ever has a line but they serve some yummy items. They are well known for their cheddar garlic bagel twists and boysen apple freeze. They have transformed the menu a bit to feature a "grey stuff" twist, strawberry rose twist, dipping sauces and a red rose lemonade freeze all in honor of the upcoming Beauty and The Beast. I would definitely check this little area out, it's cute and not too crazy and it has a lot to offer.

    Snow White, Cinderella, Aurora...Disney princesses everywhere. The Princess Fantasy Faire does a great job of putting some of the most sought after Disney characters all in one place at one time. If I remember right the princesses would randomly show up around the Castle and it was hard to find them when you really wanted a picture Save yourself tons of time waiting in line and make this one of the first things you do in your day...especially if you have little princess girls with you who want to meet their favorite princess. Most of the time Princess Fantasy Faire opens like a hour after the park opens so you can totally go straight there and be one of the first to get your pictures taken. Sure the line can be ridiculous at times but to those kids it is like waiting in line to see an A-List celebrity. After waiting your time in line you get to spend time walking down the royal walk...getting to stop every few feet and take pictures with random princesses. The only problem is that the princess you want to take pictures with may not necessarily be one of the princesses that is on the royal walk at the time you get there. It can be funny at times because you might have Ariel at the first spot and then say Snow White at the second stop and then Mulan or Pocahontas is at the third stop. You know the kids REALLY want to get their picture with Mulan...most of them do not even know who she is. I feel sorry for her sometimes. Oh well, whatever...she still is part of the Disney family...that is always magical. :0)

    I love being able to meet more than one princess in one place, the Royal Hall. This in a way saves you time but I do know that on busy days, the line here can be long and the wait can be crazy for kids. Lucky for me, I have no kids and just have to bare with everyone's craziness (which is fun to watch when you are somewhat buzzed from drinking double pear martinis at California Adventures). I like to kill time here just people watching and trying to guess how long it will take for some parents to loose their patience. I like to also think of stuff I might ask the princess to enhance my interaction with them. The few times I've met them, the wait has been totally worth it. I've taken my puppy brother to meet the girls here and they love him as much as he loves them. I've never really felt rushed and I like how personal it feels to be in the room with just them and the photographer taking your pictures (no crowds watching you). This is a great spot for photos and also for those that collect autographs. I've been able to meet Cinderella, Snow White and Belle. You can ask Cinderella how Gus and Jaq are doing or how it feels like to ride a pumpkin. I like to always remind Snow White to not eat apples from strangers and ask her to whistle for me (she's pretty darn good). As for Belle, I've asked her what her favorite book to read is (or a book recommendation), I've also like to ask her what she thinks of Gaston and how Philipe is doing) Sometimes you might see Merida outside and ask her for a quick archery lesson. You might be able to catch the Frozen show at the Royal Theater (go early, it gets super crowded). If you get hungry, you are able to get a quick snack from Maurice Treat Cart. They sell some twisted snacks that look sort of like churros or bread sticks. If you feel like shopping, there is also a small shop, The Fairy Tale Treasure Shop filled with crowns, clothes and all sort of princess things. TIp: -There is a bathroom as you exit/enter the place over by Rancho del Zocalo that usually isn't very busy. -You might want to use flash in your pictures, it is a bit dark in the Royal Hall.

    Step into an extension part of Fantasyland with the Fantasy Faire. Cross the bridge and come into a medieval village. As you walk into the village, you may immediately be drawn to the maypole in the Faire's square. The maypole is based on Rapunzel's tower from the movie "Tangled". To the left, you will find the Royal Theatre. Here, you can find two shows. One on Beauty and the Beast, the other on Rapunzel. These shows are in the style of how they would have presented them to the villagers in the 17th and 18th centuries. They are told with a narrator, the main characters, a piano player supplying the music, and themed stagehands. And there are no special effects as you might see in other theatre productions (like Aladdin: A Musical Spectacular) Just outside of the Royal Theatre is Maurice's Treats. Here, you'll find Strawberry Twists, Chocolate Twists, and Cheddar Garlic Bagel twists. For beverages, it appears to be Boysen Apple Freeze and water. To the right, near the side passage way to Fantasyland, is the Royal Hall where you can actually greet Aurora, Cinderella, and Ariel. The queue will take place in a covered area before you step inside. Once inside, there are three chambers, with a princess in each one of the three Several other items of interest here at the Faire are the animated Figaro on a windowsill. Every now and then the little bird in the cage will sing a song, waking Figaro up. But all Figaro wants to do is sleep. Another item is Clopin's Music Box. Turn the crank and hear "Topsy Turvey" as the "Festival of Fools" comes to life with animated painted flats For your Princesses shopping needs, Fairy Tale Treasures is the place to go. For trivia lovers, on the tallest steeple in the Faire, you'll find the crest with the letters CPG. Those are the initials of Carnation Plaza Gardens, the former occupant of the area before it was completely transformed into the Faire Once Disney took out the old Carnation Plaza Gardens restaurant, this area was so underutilized. So I think this area is much more appealing and deserving for the Disney Princesses instead of the old Fantasyland Theatre or the temporary Small World promenade. By transforming this area, it frees up the old Fantasy Faire by "it's a small world", which will be used once again as an amphitheater for "Mickey and the Magical Map"

    Every little girl (and some adults) will have the new Princess Fantasy Faire attraction at the top of her list. Featuring meeting/autograph opportunities with the princesses, and a theather with Tangled and Beauty & The Beast shows this is the latest hotspot for those in their princess phase. LOCATION: As you walk down Main Street, it's immediately to the left of Sleeping Beauty's Castle. It's accessible from Frontierland, Main Street, or Fantasyland. DESIGN: Stepping into the Fantasy Faire is like stepping right into one of the princess fairytales. It's like the opening scenes in the small town from Beauty & Beast have come to life. ROYAL HALL: This is the main reason for most kids to stop here. After waiting in line (partially covered with fans for those hot summer days), you wind through the hall and get to meet 3 princesses (Aurora, Ariel, and Cinderella on our visit). The cast members do a good job of giving each kid adequate time with the princesses, with the kids never feeling hurried. Each princess took time to really speak with the kids, ask them questions, sign autograph books, give them a hug, and pose for a photo. If you have a little girl (or boy) that loves princesses this is a must see. I'm sure during peak seasons the lines here are going to be absurd. ROYAL THEATRE: Featuring a live keyboard player, a comedy duo tells one of two stories - Tangled or Beauty & The Beast - with the requisite princesses and cohorts involved as well in a fast-paced, humorous show that will please both kids and parents. Make sure to get there early especially if your kid wants a seat on the rugs in the front of the theather. MAURICE'S TREATS: We didn't buy anything here but the smells of baked goods was intoxicating. The speciality drinks come in a souvenir mug (looks like a wooden mug that Maurice or Gaston would use). FAIRY TALE TREASURES: This is yet another place where you can buy dresses and accessories for your little princess. It's like Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutique-lite.

    I can't believe that after how many time I've been to Disney that I never knew about this location =/. I thought for us to meet the princesses, we have to just be lucky and happen to come across them when we walk around the park. So this castle is where you can meet 3 princesses at a time!!! It is a one on one interaction separated by different section but you don't have to wait in 3 different lines! They will post the name of the princesses in the front of the line, 2 disclosed and 1 surprises. We happened to know about this because we were waiting in line for Belle and overheard one of the parents talking about it. The line was only about 15 minutes. The experience was very magical for my 4 year old. She squealed every time she turned the corner and see another princess. A must visit for all that are a fan of the princesses.

    Pretty cool new addition, can't wait to meet my first princess (Amy would it noted that she is a princess)

    Disneyworld not that long ago updated their Fantasyland and I was happy to see that Disneyland made a great choice and added this new "faire" to the park. It is a fantastic addition to the park and for families with young "princesses" it is a can't miss attraction. I did find it a bit hilarious that there was a good size line to meet the Disney princesses, but there were "princes" just roaming around with no crowds at all. No mistake who wears the glass slippers here.

    The actress who played Tiana was AMAZING! We absolutely LOVED HER! Disney you need to give her a raise immediately.

One thing that surprised me was that the wait times for the rides weren't as bad as I expected, especially considering how busy the park can get. We were able to get on quite a few rides without spending the entire day standing in line, which made the visit much more enjoyable. There's a good mix of rides and attractions for both kids and adults, so everyone in the family was able to find something they enjoyed. We also loved walking around the park and taking in the atmosphere. Even with the heat, there were plenty of places to take a break and cool down. Overall, it was a fun family day and a great way to spend time together. The heat was probably the biggest challenge, but it didn't take away from the experience. We had a lot of fun and would definitely come back again!

    If I could give no stars I would. We (AIE Tours at Knotts…read moreand I) have been in contact several times in the last 6 months, as I had tried to schedule bringing my senior citizens to Independence Hall for a visit. Initially I was told that they needed to pay a $55 park entry to have guided tours. That seemed silly for 85+ year olds since they would not be entering the park, so I was then told that self-guided tours were available. This is where it gets wonky. And where I'm honestly super angry. I scheduled for two of our communities to bring 23 people to Independence Hall for a self-guided tour yesterday (Thursday, September 10th). I contacted the tour department by phone on Wednesday, stating that I was bringing said seniors to an unguided tour the following day and asked if there was a better place for us to unload. We had a long conversation about where we could unload the residents that was closer to Independence Hall (BTW there is nothing for them). Imagine my frustration when we get to the parking lot and the attendant tell us that Independence Hall is closed for renovations (which apparently is not true). Are you freaking kidding me? We drove 45 minutes and my sister community drove even longer from RPV to come to see Independence Hall. Do you not think it would have been wise for the representative to let us know that it was closed? I researched it while I was having lunch with the residents at the at the restaurant. (Imagine driving 45 minutes just to eat lunch...) I could be wrong but NO WHERE on your site does it say that Independence Hall is closed. I finally googled it when I got back to work and found out from a 3rd party that this began September 2 and that going forward it is only open Saturdays and Sundays 'for budget reasons'. I have been an activity director at this high end community for 21 years. in that time, we have gone all over SoCAL from San Diego to Simi Valley and everywhere in between. I have NEVER has such a massive fail. You guys have screwed all of this up more than I can understand. We will not be back, and you just lost a long time fan of Knotts. Sidenote: Mrs. Knotts Chicken restaurant was delish and the staff was amazing. Still not worth 90 minutes round trip.

    I haven't been to Disney California Adventure since it first opened in 2001, and a LOT has changed…read morein 25 years! I took a solo trip and had an excellent day despite a few hiccups along the way. The first thing I did was book it over to the Guardians of the Galaxy: Mission BREAKOUT ride. I got incredibly lucky. The Lightning Lane reservations were basically booked until almost 9 PM, and the standby wait was around 90 minutes. The Cast Member working customer service noticed I was by myself and worked a little Disney Magic to get me on. I really appreciated that! Easily one of the best rides in the park. I loved the reimagining of the old Tower of Terror and had an absolute blast. I tried to make it up front to meet Oswald, but his meet and greet suddenly disappeared from the app. I really wanted to meet him, but it's all good. I'll have to catch him on my next visit to California. The exact same thing happened with Black Panther. My top two character meet and greets canceled on me! That's probably my biggest complaint of the day, but let's be real, it's definitely a #FirstWorldProblem. Radiator Springs Racers had about a 70-minute wait, and you have to purchase an Individual Lightning Lane if you want to skip the regular line. Thankfully, the Single Rider line was only about 20 minutes, so I threw my Galaxy Buds in and thugged it out. Worth it! Cars Land itself is also incredibly immersive and beautifully designed. Walking around actually made me want to go back and watch the Cars movies again. Next, I kicked it over to Pixar Pier and rode the Incredicoaster. Easily one of my favorite rides between both Disneyland parks. It is so much fun from the moment you're strapped in and launched off to the sound of Dash's voice. 10/10. Loved it! Definitely grab a Lightning Lane because that line gets long FAST. Afterward, I saw Baymax was doing a meet and greet and hopped in line literally right before he went on a 15-minute break. After waiting, Baymax came back out with Hiro! I've never met Hiro at Disney before and honestly didn't even know he did meet and greets, so that was a really nice surprise. Then I went to ride Toy Story Midway Mania, but it broke down for the day after I had already waited about 20 minutes in line. Y'all, my luck was fluctuating UP and down all day. Haha. I wrapped up the day with Goofy's Sky School and WEB SLINGERS: A Spider-Man Adventure. Sky School broke down too, but thankfully it came back up pretty quickly. I had a Lightning Lane and was already near the front. That being said, I probably would not ride it again. It was way too rickety for me, and my head kept knocking against the back of the seat. WEB SLINGERS was basically the same experience I had at Disneyland Paris, except this time it was in English, so I could actually understand the backstory of the ride! If you like Marvel and/or video games, it's definitely a must ride. Come to think of it, this ride broke down for a little while too. The Disney mechanics were OFF that day! Thankfully, these days everybody has earbuds and smartphones, so the extended waits didn't bother me too much. I ended the day with seeing Goofy and Mickey and some souvenir shopping for family and friends. Something about a Disney visit isn't complete to me without seeing Mickey Mouse! He was as energetic and effervescent as ever. He loved my Oswald the Rabbitt shirt. :) All in all, I had a great day and would absolutely come back again. There are still rides I didn't get to experience, and hopefully next time I can finally catch the Oswald and Black Panther meet and greets I missed. California Adventure has seriously stepped its game up since I first visited as a kid in 2001. Twenty-five years later, it feels like an entirely different park, and I had a great time exploring it all over again.
