(This IS the short version!)
A day in the parks can be magical, or it can be brutal. Sometimes it’s both at the same time. These are our best tips to having a great time in the Disney parks.

1. Attend To All Creature Comforts
Caffeine, pain killers, sunglasses, hat, water bottle, snacks, sunscreen, comfy shoes, etc. Nothing’s fun if you have blisters or a headache. If you forget something, buy it, even if it’s ridiculous to pay $4.75 for a bottle of water, $20 for a little thing of sunscreen, or you have to shell out $40 for plastic sunglasses with rhinestone Mickeys all over. You’re not paying for that. You’re paying to save your Disney day. It’s worth the time and the money.
2. Be There Before It Opens
Be there before it opens. This is called ‘making rope drop.’ I know this kinda flies in the face of the first tip for those who like to sleep in, but the first few hours at the park are awesome. It’s not hot or crowded, and the lines are much shorter. It’s totally worth it.
The last hour or two of the night can be awesome too, especially at Disneyland since it’s generally open later than California Adventure. If you have little kids, that only works if everyone took great naps during the afternoon break. See the next tip.
3. Take A Break In The Afternoon
The mid-day break may be the best Disney tip of all time, and I learned it from my aunt and uncle on our very first trip. After lunch we head to the hotel for swimming and naps and general down-time. We sometimes eat dinner before returning to the parks. The part of the day you will miss is hot and crowded. Who needs that? As you head back into the park you’ll see hot, cranky people who have pushed themselves too far leaving the parks just as it’s about to get pleasant again. If you’re only doing one day in the parks or the hours are short that day, do an in-park break. 30 minutes of comfy seating, air conditioning, and iced drinks can really perk you up. We usually figure that we’ve gotten our money’s worth if we’ve had a fun day together, not if we’ve crammed every activity possible into the day.
4. Understand Genie+ and Lightning Lane
You need to understand how the Genie+ and Lightning Lane systems work. Important to know: Genie is free to use. Genie+ is a paid service that works a lot like the old FASTPASS sevice, and Lightning Lane is a pay per use service that has Disney fans gaping at the company’s shameless cash-grabbing.
5. Adult Beverages
California Adventure Park serves alcohol in multiple locations while Disneyland only does in a few places. Just sayin’. I refer you to the whole afternoon break scenario.
6. Get The App!
Download the Disneyland app that tells you the current wait times for rides. Don’t shlep all the way over to Space Mountain only to find it’s got a two hours wait or, worse, it’s closed.
7. Don’t Try To Do Everything
Don’t plan to do everything, because you probably won’t, no matter how long you’re there. Figure out what actually matters to your group, and do that. It might be some unexpected things like meeting Lightning McQueen or riding on the top of the double decker bus.
8. Find Some Elbow Room
California Adventure usually feels less crowded than Disneyland because they made all the walkways wider. If you feel the walls closing in at Disneyland, head over there if you got a park hopper ticket. I usually feel like there’s more of a breeze at CA too, which can be good or bad.
9. Allow Time To Park
If you are going to drive and park, it takes way longer than you think. The parking areas are off-site, and then you take a shuttle, and then you walk. Allow more time than seems reasonable.
10. Don’t Forget Security
Getting through security can take a ridiculously long time or almost no time at all. During some busy times, there will be a line for people who have no bags with them, and this can be a considerable time-saver. Unfortunately, going bagless is not an option for many people, and there often isn’t a dedicated line for them anyway.
