Creator's Key Takeaways

Blime me. This is very modern compared to all the ones we've been on before.

We've got a Disneyland Paris annual passes bronze. We've got 3 days reservations and um you can't visit at weekends.

We've never had a back one really, have that I can think of, ever. Um, so definitely worth it.

Book ferry in advance to secure better prices.

YouTube Video Description

Join us on our travel day as we head to Disneyland Paris in our motorhome, Elvis the Elddis Autoquest 155, navigating a busy summer crossing from Dover to Calais. We share the full experience of finding a last-minute ferry, parking overnight in Dover for free, and how we saved money using the Caravan and Motorhome Club discounts. After a smooth early morning crossing, we hit the road through France toward Disneyland Paris, discussing annual passes, parking options, toll costs, and tips for travelling with a Motorhome. Once we arrive, we settle into the motorhome parking and get ready to explore the parks for a hot few days ahead, with temperatures hitting 30 degrees. Inside the parks, we share our first impressions, talk about the current renovations, food options, and how it feels to visit Disneyland Paris during the summer compared to previous trips. We even check out the brand new Star Wars Lounge Light Speed in Discoveryland and visit Billy Bob’s Tex-Mex buffet in Disney Village for the first time. If you’re thinking about travelling to Disneyland Paris by motorhome or want to see what it’s really like to cross the Channel with a camper and spend a few days in the parks, this vlog has loads of tips and honest opinions.
