This Pirates of the Caribbean is slightly different than the original…read more They kept a few things the parks in the states removed during their last renovations, but similar to Disneyland California Paris removed or never had a few things that were a bit on the saucier side. The ride itself is longer than the original and a little less realistic - I'd say the animatronics are weaker and a little more doll like, but it has some of the classic vibes and I personally thought the air quality was better than expected. It is a must do at Disneyland Paris? No. But we had Premier Access so there was no reason not to try it out and see what their version was like, so if you're in the same boat I'd definitely recommend trying it out. However all in all, if there's a wait time past 20 minutes and you've been on another version and don't have PA, I think this version could easily be skipped.

Of all the lands, Adventureland is generally my favorite because it tends to be Pin Trading central…read moreand Disneyland Paris was no different. I love how there's always one store which has amazing pins, but I did feel like there should have been a 'maker' shop Disneyland California and Tokyo Disney both have where you can make embroidered and personalized items with your name on them. It was also a bit of a bummer for me that Disneyland Paris had no Pooh ride, but Adventureland had the best Pooh merch of all the stores we stopped into, even though you would think Fantasyland would be the place to go. Finally, the pin trading at Disneyland Paris is not to be beat. The pins are amazing, high quality and large, and trading in Adventureland was one of the highlights of our visit. All in all, Adventureland is definitely an area not to be missed if you're visiting Disneyland Paris.

Not sure why they have done this, but I'm guessing that's it to making the line move quicker. Only problem is that you don't get to enjoy the show, and you get hurt in the process. Overall, slow down the speed and this would be a lot better.

We walked past it because we didn't wanna wait 30 minutes for this ride. We've been on this ride many times in the Unites States. So no need to do this one. The version in California is a big dark and spooky. I loved it! This one seemed to have the same level of scary. Probably not for really little kids. They might get too scared.

It's different enough that some sections are a surprise, but classic enough that it makes you smile while you ride it. I loved that this version had a Hollywood section and rather well flushed out United Kingdom section. I also thought it was nice that roughly half the ride is in English and half is in French and the transition is subtle enough you barely notice it. Overall, this is one of the rides I'd definitely recommend doing if you're from the states and visit France, as it doesn't feel like an echo, but it's own take on the classic.

This is, without question, the finest incarnation of the Haunted Mansion ever conceived by mortal…read morehands. With Vincent Price himself guiding you through its sinister tale, the attraction becomes far more than a mere amusement--it is a descent into a beautifully macabre world of restless spirits, dreadful secrets, and supernatural spectacle. The exterior alone is enough to place one deliciously on edge, but once you cross the threshold, the darkness only deepens. Every corridor groans with atmosphere. Every room contains some new horror. The effects and scenes are magnificent, and the entire experience feels like stepping into a beautifully haunted film from which escape may not be guaranteed. I rode it seven times during the slower season, when it was practically a walk-on. I strongly recommend experiencing it at night, when the manor becomes especially picturesque beneath the moonlit sky. Though I must warn you: the ghosts may not remain behind when you leave. One followed me home and appeared beside my bed, pale and translucent, with an expression of grave urgency. I assumed he had come to claim my soul. Instead, he asked me for two dollars and seventy-five cents for a chocolate bar. I paid him, naturally. One does not haggle with the dead--especially when they appear to know where you sleep.

Phantom Manor is essentially Haunted Mansion but different enough that it felt like they were…read moretrying to avoid copyright infringement. That's not actually the case. From what I read because they changed the music for French audiences and this version is in Frontierland they changed the scope of the ride and felt it needed a different name. In my opinion, Phantom Manor (like most of the rides we rode at Disneyland Paris) was weaker than the original at Disneyland. It does feel slightly longer but from the music to the decor to the doom buggies, everything is just a little less magical. The best parts are the echos of the original. With Premier Pass the ride was walk on (although up a few sets of stairs), so I definitely recommend riding it if you visit, but I would keep my expectations low.

Loved seeing the character play Maleficent. It really brought the castle to life!

My friend and I were able to experience just about everything we wanted in around 4-5 hours on a Sunday. If you want to optimize time you can definitely pair with Disneyland Park and do a 1 day trip. If you've been to Walt Disney World in Florida, this park feels very similar to Hollywood Studios in both layout and attractions. It has a familiar vibe, especially with the Tower of Terror, which was a childhood favorite of mine. During my mid-June visit, the crowds were surprisingly manageable. The wait times were relatively short all day, and the only ride I used Premier Access for was Tower of Terror, which cost about $12 and was well worth it. One of my favorite areas was Avengers Campus. The atmosphere is fantastic, but I was disappointed to learn that the superhero photo experiences can only be booked through the Disneyland Paris app on the day of your visit. By the time I arrived, every reservation was already gone. I really wish they offered more traditional character meet-and-greet lines or standby photo opportunities for guests who miss out on reservations. Overall, this isn't the best Disney park in the world, but it's still a solid experience that's absolutely worth visiting, especially if you're already making the trip all the way to Paris. Just go in knowing it's a smaller park, and you'll likely have a great time.

This park is pretty small, but is about to become a lot larger with the Frozen land opening next year. For now, you'll find Toy Story Land, Avengers Campus, and some favorites like Tower of Terror and Remy's Ratatouille Adventure. PLus, some unique rides, like Crush's Coaster (my fave in the park!!) I love the entrance, which is a large, inside area that makes you feel like you are under a starry night sky in Hollywood. This park is literally right next to the entrance of DLP, so it's easy to park hop. You'd probably get everything done in a day here easily, if not sooner. It's good for what it is, but nothing like its neighboring park. I can't wait to see it get even better next year, though!
