One of our RadioTimes.com Digital Writers always wanted to go as a child, but unfortunately she must have been on Santa’s Naughty List.

Before we get on to the best Disneyland Paris deals and offers for this month, we have some general tips to help you save. Let’s check them out.

Planning ahead is key. The general advice is to book a holiday 180 days (around six months) in advance to ensure you’re getting the best early-bird price for your trip.

Next, avoid school holidays. If you’re taking little ones to Disneyland Paris, this can be easier said than done, however it will save you a fair chunk of money. For 2024, the school holidays are: Autumn holidays (28th October 2024 to 1st November 2024), and Christmas holidays (21st December 2024 to 3rd January 2025).

Is two days enough in Disneyland Paris?

The official UK Disneyland Paris website recommends three days at the theme park: two days for Disneyland Park to cover its five themed lands, and one day for Walt Disney Studios Park with its four zones. Plus, three days gives you plenty of time to see the various shows and parades.

What is the cheapest month to go to Disneyland Paris?

Overall, January is the quietest and cheapest month of the year (as it seems to be with everything, ever). Post-Christmas, your bank account is pretty dry, moods can be low, and the weather is predictably terrible, which is why January tends to be the cheapest month. That all being said, a trip to Disneyland Paris would be perfect to cheer you up!

Disneyland Paris takes advantage of the sparse crowds to carry out maintenance and refurbishment on its attractions, so it’s worth bearing in mind that not all attractions will be open.

What is the cheapest way to get from the UK to Disneyland Paris?

One of the cheapest and easiest ways to travel from the UK to Disneyland Paris is the Eurostar. The Eurostar departs from London St Pancras International station and gets in to Disneyland Paris (Marne-la-Vallée Chessy) or Paris, depending on which station you choose.

As always, it's important to book as far in advance as possible to secure the best possible pricing. Let's use this month as an example. At the time of writing (Thursday 3rd October), a Eurostar ticket for the next day (from London to Disneyland Paris) would set you back from £300.87, and the trip should take five hours fifteen minutes. However, if you were to pick a day at the end of the month (Thursday 31st October), tickets start from just £146.08.

Plus, children under the age of four can travel for free, as long as they sit on an adult’s lap for the entirety of the journey.
