One of my top tips: go on Jungle Cruise at night! It's a completely different experience. And if you go on it during the fireworks, the skipper will stop and let everyone watch for a little bit.
We're retired locals and go to Disneyland once or twice a week. Since we go so often, we don't do fast passes, rather we really keep it low stress. Your recommendation to get there when the park opens is the BEST advice. At rope drop, we ride Big Thunder Mountain, then Pirates, then Haunted Mansion. I grab a coffee while my husband does Splash Mountain. We're usually done with all four rides by 9:00 a.m. Then we wander the park, catch any ride with a short wait time and just take in all the magic. Our favorite in-park restaurant is the Plaza Inn. And yes, Mickey's Magical Map is so, so fun, a must see. Great video Max!! Jane
Thanks Jane! i love that you get 4 rides down by 9am!! That's the way to do it!
ShesInLosAngeles my husband and I are in our 30s, and I just said to him this morning that we should retire at Disneyland ❤
Since you live there time is not a matter! 99.9% of people that go are tourists and time like myself is money!
You don't fly and take vacation time and pay for hotels. You probably have a season pass I bet. If you don't go on all the rides in one day not a big deal one back the next day or the next day or the next day etc. Not a good tip on my opinion.
Fastpass = low stress
where do you get your coffee?
This is a fun fact! I was one of the first 100 people to ride California screaming when it opened! The first day me and my uncle and 2 cousins where walking around the park and they where handing out a special ticket. There where only 100 of them. So me and my family where the first ones to ride the ride 1 hour before it opened! I toke forever to get the ride started, because they where taking soo many pictures of the first 100 people to ride it! I got to ride it twice because one of my cousins was too small for the ride so she gave me her ticket and I went on again! I wish I could find the pictures!
There we are!!!! @9:38
YAY! Hope you all had a magical first visit!!!
Jasmine Otovo COOL!
You're are so lucky!
Splash Mountain early morning and after dark is practically walk on. If you sit in seats 4,5 or 6, you wont get that wet. Its such a great ride. Thrill, water and darkride all in one!
For some reason whenever my boyfriend and I go to Disneyland, we always head toward the churro stand near small world and Matterhorn. Usually there's no line and they just taste amazing. We both think that's the best churro stand and we don't know why! Either way, a churro at Disneyland or California Adventure is such a good treat! :)
Maral Harirchi have you had them from Costco I tried them at Disney and not only was it $5 but it didn't taste good the ones at Costco are really good and there only $1
a tip a have is that you will be walking most of the day and that you wanna wear shoes that you feel comfortable walking in basically all day
Your so good at vloging and he's not even shy to do it in public 😫
Everyone should always have a churro to point with!!
Bring hand sanitizer or hand wipes so that you can snack while you're in line and then wash your hands!
Shariah Michelle bring hand sanitizer anyway, who knows what people have touched before touching that railing you just touched.
And now there’s covid-19
Clam chowder bread bowl and a mint julep 😛 Take full advantage of the single rider lines. Line up quickly for meeting characters before the line gets cut off and the characters leave. Have your camera ready. Bring or buy an autograph book and a pen for characters to sign. They also sign items of clothing. Minnie signed my hat. Bring a sharpie pen for that. If you are a long distance traveler don't over pack. Leave room for your Disney shopping items or post them home if you can. Buy small items. Pressed pennies are great to collect all over the parks. Ask for a guide and buy a folder. Bring change..pennies and quarters. Buy your first pair of Disney ears or hat. Finally spend as much time here as possible so you get to do everything. I recommend a week. A minimum of 3 to 4 days although that is difficult to achieve. Have a happy magical time 💫
These are all great tips!!!
mrcheezypop Thanks Max. I don't get to go very much because I'm from Sydney. I learned so much in just 3 visits. Wish I could go as often as you do.
You can also get 1st timer/birthday buttons at restaurants if you ask. Don't underestimate the fun of entertainment other than the big attractions. Disney has a deal with Coke, no Pepsi products ANYWHERE. They let you bring in your own though. Super8 has Gatorade vending machine outside with Pepsi products. If you can't get in early, stay until closing, many people leave after fireworks ~9pm, but there are 2nd parade showings ~10:30. Websites can tell you days parks are less busy..also choose days with more hours of open time. U can buy dining packages which also give u a premium spot to watch parade/fireworks/World of Color. Put Fastpass in your wallet, u might lose it. Don't forget your ticket in Fastpass machine. If u ask, photographers will use your own camera/phone, no pressure to buy PhotoPass. Use official Disneyland app. Nearly anything in a gift shop u can also find in World of Disney store in Downtown Disney/Springs or online. Bring little portable USB battery + cable for ur phone. Apple sells a 1/2 length Lightning cable. Good for this + car use. Parkhopper is overpriced. Disney California Adventure is more suited to adults, Disneyland is more suited to kids/Star Wars fans. Space Mountain + Matterhorn slam your body around. Big Thunder Mtn RR has tracks that bank, more pleasant, just as fun. Path of Jedi is a waste of time..no new footage. Check out Jedi Training: Trials of Temple instead, live actors. U can access basically anything in any Disney hotel without paying for a room..A good way to get unique food/entertainment. arestravel dot c*m has discount tickets.
Ariel is so cute!
I've never been able to go to Disneyland. I'll make sure to come back to this video when I go to Disneyland.
Trenton Bless Seriously go. It will be the best thing you ever did and be warned you will want to come back.
Lucia FP It's been on my list for years. I have to do it!
Trenton Bless be prepared to spend between $1,000.00 up depending on how long you stay and what hotel I suggest a good neighbor hotel you get perks for staying in these but if you choose to get a room in a Disney hotel they are $300+ a night depending on hotel.
I stayed at Motel 6 on Disney way Anaheim. Has a pool. Nice rooms. Up the road from the park. Bus service to the park. Book early ☺
+Lucia FP I booked Hi Fullerton and purchase online Membership 65 $ 2 Nights plus 8 $ Transportation plus under 10 $ Online Membership. Think beside Couchsurfing you can't go cheaper. It's 9 km from Disney - 13 min walking, 6:02 Bus 43 from End Station - arrives Disney 6:26 - (also goes each half hour later)
I'm going to Disneyland for the very first time tomorrow, so this is probably the most timely video I could have hoped for!
I get so happy for people going for the first time. Have so so much fun. Are you doing both parks?
Yes! Really excited for both DCA and DLR!
eez2008 If you get a fast pass in Disneyland you can still get a fast pass in Disney California Adventure at the same time(: or vice versa of course
How was it!? :)))
Did you have a good time?
I started watching at 9 its now 4 in the morning and idk how this happened
The lady at 10:40 😂
Dizyland s
I've never been to a Disney park, I'm too poor for that. I hope I can visit at least Disneyland some day. Your videos always cheer me up!!
Getting there early IS key. But if you're only there for one day, willing to spend the time (til close) and you're not a whiny impatient adult, or just a normal child, you can hit nearly every ride and get to see a few shows as well, IF you don't do any stupid ride/park hoping. That means no fast passes. Do one "land, get on their rides and move on to the next neighboring land and so on! We stuck to this plan and on Labor Day weekend of all dates and it turned out to be one of the best times we had at the park. 2 and 3 day passes are great if you can do them and that will allow you to do a more leisurely tour of the park.
Taking my son for his First visit... im so excited... I've been to Disney world but never Disney land!!!
You should probably spend more time in Disney California Adventure then. Disneyland is pretty similar to the Magic Kingdom + Hollywood studios at Disney World.
disneyland is magic kingdom
its a tiny tip but as far as water fountains go, the one right near soarin around the world is the BEST one. clearest water quality, actually enough water pressure to fill a water bottle, AND the coldest one too.
also definitely use the matterhorn single line out of any of them. sometimes ill go and the regular line is an hour wait but no one is in single for some reason so i can just walk right on. and the left side is usually a faster line too.
i don’t know if anybody said this yet but one time me and my mom went to disneyland together by ourselves and the line for splash mountain was 105 minutes long. me and my mom saw that there was single rider and we were like oh well we really want to go on this so let’s go single rider. so we went... of course. and in about 3 minutes the worker was like, “are you guys 2 people?” and we said yes so we went on the ride TOGETHER!!! it was awesome but I felt bad because we waited for 3 minutes to get on together and some people are waiting 105 minutes. so yeah, if your planning on going to disneyland soon, go to single rider! ALSOOO, get max passes and churros!!!!!!!!!
Crazy Cupcakes do single rider on every ride
you gotta try the corndogs on Main Street!
im going to DL tomorrow and i havent been there in 3 years. I binged-watched your videos and now IM SUPER EXCITED
The french fries at Cafe Orleans ARE LIFE
Eek! I didn't even know they had fries there so now I have to go try them.
Make sure you order the ones with parmesan and garlic!!! Lol. Not the regular ones.
YES!
mrcheezypop SWEET. I'm going next week and adding these to my list of must eat foods!
JonasAlmostFamous YESSS
Finally get to take my daughters this year! They are 14 and 9! My husband is from Ark and this will also be his first visit! I went my first time as an infant and don't even remember! Lol been at least 10 times up until age 13. I miss California! Thank you for this video!
All your tips are spot on! I agree with everything you said, only thing I would suggest is to watch tiki show while eating dole whip, and to use apps that let you know wait times and where characters are. Great video as always.
"Tourists in shorts" haha but Max, people coming from New York or Canada or other cold places are gonna be fine in shorts when it's 5-10°C!
TheGingerHermione I'm from Utah, we've been there in March/April, perfect t-shirt and short weather for us! We got a kick out of the locals who were dressed like they were going skiing in our mountains.
TheGingerHermione weather hardly ever goes below the 50s
Weather rarely drops below 50s so yes we may be bundled up but I’ve also seen native Californians out in the rain in flip flops and shorts just enjoying the coolness
I just moved and started working in downtown Disney...what people are calling chilly is still like 55 60 degrees
Winter+spring morning are cool, but afternoons are HOT! 🥵 Nights can be cool as well, but not always.
I'm going to Disneyland for the first time in 2 days! So excited.
Shark Daddy how was it?
You are SO adorable! The chicken bbq sauce baked potato looked amazing , and I will defiantly also try the Bacon mac and Cheese cone when I come to Disneyland in September!
I crave the hand dipped corn dogs from the little red wagon on Main Street EVERY DAY!
Life is Peaches never knew Disney had corn dogs I'll have to look for them tommorrow
Oh my gosh, I wanna go!! My son watched this with me and he blew kisses and waved at everyone who popped in frame. I can't wait until he's a little bigger so I can take him to Disney.
I just came across your channel today, and I have to say this now is definitely one of my favorite Disneyland tips/tricks video. You are so full of personality and thats what makes your channel and videos fun! Keep up the awesome work with the videos!
Thanks for the tips! I'm flying from Florida to visit Disneyland for my 16th birthday!
Dude I was just watching your videos and listening to your voice thinking “why does he sound like he’d be An amazing voice actor?” And then bam- I read your description and I was right! 😆
thankyou for the tips we might be going in July
Perfect topic! We are east coasters (in DC...glad you had a nice time here not too long ago) who has family now out in CA, and a trip to visit them and obviously plan to hit up Disneyland for a few days!
Super helpful video! Haven't been to Disneyland since I was a child and I don't really remember it so my next visit will feel like my first
I love the food at Disney, so the Mickey Beignets are an absolute must for me, but also I would really really suggest first timers watch the fireworks show. Even though it changes up, it is always amazing. And when Fantasmic comes back, that's definitely one to watch!
First time watching your vids... love your personality! I LOVE Disneyland!! I know it's not my first time and this is a first time vid but I wanted to see if there were any tips. :) Thank you for the great video! Off to watch the rest. ;)
MrCheezyPop you for got to mention the dinner and vip show packages. the best way to eat and have your place saved for shows. and you only have to show up 30 minutes before the parade.
ok this made me smile 😄 thank u!! we are planning our trip to Disneyland and we haven't been for about six years so this really helped!
Thank you for sharing these tips!
Dude, you are a one man show! So entertaining!
I have a few tips.
1. Buy food and bring it to the park with you. The Disney food can get pretty spendy especially is you are with a large group. I would suggest PB&J.
2. Get the app. Get a Disney app so you can see the ride wait times, maps and more.
3. Bring extra cloths Incase you get hot, cold, or wet.
4. There is also a secret menu. My favorite from the secret menu is the Mac and cheese bread bowl! It is amazing!
The tip on the tikki room was soooo handy we went not long ago and we walked straight up to the bar and got our dole whip it was amazing we came all the way from new Zealand to have dole whip lol
I really liked your review, very clear and straight to the point where it matters most.
This is honestly my favorite video in the world because you just give off such magical energy on the most magical place on earth and it’s too much!!!!
Thanks for this video. My family and I are going tomorrow I’m very excited ❤️✨.
This is SUCH a valuable vlog, thank you so much!!
Is that an Oswald the Lucky Rabbit hoodie I see?? I love it soooo much, I need it!!
I’ll be travelling from Australia and visiting Disneyland for the very first time this July, and just found your channel for first timers! Thank you for all the expert advice, making me more excited! 😍
I'm going to Disneyland for the first time in June this year (June 2018) well the USA for that matter and google for some info on Disneyland this video you made has been such a big help I have typed out a whole lot of notes in my phone & will need at least 2 days instead of the 1 day I was going to try and do but I will not even tempt to do it in one day as I want to see both parks so thank you mate
AussieZach88 how was it
I love watching these videos because it's almost like I'm there with you. always makes me happy :) I live in Australia so I definitely don't get to Disney as much as I'd like. love your videos!
Thanks so much for this video! I'm going to Disneyland for the first time this summer with my sister and this is super helpful! :D
Great video 👍 thanks for sharing! We're going in May and are so excited. But we only have 2 or 3 days for the parks so these tips are super helpful.
Churro pointing should totally become a thing. LoL 😅
I remember on my last visit when Disneyland was opening,they were playing Zippidy Doo Da and people were running to rides and,It was so MAGICAL! So I would definitely recommend going in the morning because you just get that sense of Disney magic♥️♥️
The chili bread bowl from the Golden Horseshoe is amazing and The Mickey shaped beignets are also amazing
I've been to Disneyland a few times but I've only been on their small world once since the line is normally sooooooo long. But the one time I did go on it was with my Mom after a showing of Fantasmic on a day the park was open pretty late. Let's just say that it's a small world near midnight, when it's so dead that they only have one boat in a room/area at a time, and with only two of you in the boat is. so. creepy. ...Especially if you've read the first Kingdom Keeper's book. Nooooooooope.
Elizabeth R dude I went on Small World as my last ride super late and I was thinking all sorts of KK references. I was also thinking it was beautiful.
I also thought of that scene (of course) when I went to Disney world this past summer
Really useful video!! Thank you!!
Awesome video! I'm visiting for the first time at the end of August, and excitement levels are HIGH! Thanks for the helpful tips!!! :)
Greet video man! I will be using your tips on my first visit.
Such a good video, thanks!
I am from Scotland and went to Disneyland in April. My aunt who lives in California said it'd get chilly. She was talking about temperatures in the high forties/low fifties (or around ten degrees Celsius). That's T-shirt weather. I think you've been living in SoCal too long, Max. Those people you mentioned were probably from a place where you go out in a sundress every time it's over fridge temperature.
Great tips! I had my first visit last year and I used a lot I learnt from your videos to plan. My favourite was mickey beignets. Never would've tried them without seeing your videos about them!
Great video and great tips! I will be doing my 3rd trip to Disney from Hawaii, this November. I'll be going with friends rather than family. They all have either not been there before, or haven't been since they were really younger. Looking forward to using a few of these tips!
I'm going to Disney for the first time next month and I didn't know about the 1st time buttons!!!! Thanks x
The last time I visited Disneyland was with my then girlfriend in 2010. Life has had its ups and downs for me in the next stretch of time. Now, November 2019, I am going this friday with some friends to celebrate my 50th birthday. I am both nervous and excited, and looking forward to Galaxies Edge, among other things. I do tire easily. I am high energy in the morning and usually more low energy in the evenings, and hope to experience as much as possible. I enjoyed your presentation, and think it will help me better plan my day/evening. Thank you for posting this video.
I go a lot too! My tips: Always bring a backpack! Put extra waters and snacks in it. Bring your own lunch and sodas. One soda can costs more than $3.50. I always take a cooler and leave it in my trunk. So I will go back to my car and eat and come back to the park. If you don't want to go back to your car pack lunches that don't need to bed cold all the time like pbj sandwiches. If you stay at night in the park you are more likely to be able to ride the same ride more than once. I rode splash mountain 6 times in a row. I never got off the ride because there was really nobody in the line. The reason why is less people in the park at night. That starts about 7pm. If you park in the handicapped area of mickey and friends you would have a great view of the fireworks. If you are handicapped or any member of your party is you can use the special handicapped line which is in the exit of almost all rides! I did this one time on Matterhorn. I couldn't find the handicapped line so I asked a crew member and They put me right on the ride by passing a few hundred people in line.
to save wait times for buttons....go to one of the disneyland hotels...they have all of them at the front desk
thanks for the videos! such great tips!
I'm going for my first time in mid-August!!! I can't wait!!
Don't ask for signatures unless you absolutely are dying for one. It's easier for Mickey to take a picture because his big ol gloves :) he'll thank you for it lol
This was great for first time disney goers! thank you!!
Great tips! The best thing is to watch videos like yours!
Subbed! Best video in my long search for Disneyland tips. Thanks! 😆
After many trials I finally got my reservation at a good discount from Globalworldhack on IG..
I really liked this video! You are so personable! I agree with everything you said and appreciate you taking the time to give such good tips.
Disneyland has multiple buttons so if it's a special occasion like your birthday, anniversary, engagement, or you're just celebrating something awesome that has just happened in your life, they have buttons for that! :) Also, The Hungry Bear (in Critter Country near Splash Mt. and Pizza Port (in Tomorrow Land, very hard to miss) are great places to eat and are more reasonably priced. If you are allergic to gluten, Pizza Port can make gluten free pizza for you. (Disney in general is very accommodating for people with allergies.) My best friend just told me if you go on the story book canal ride in Fantasy Land right before the fireworks start, you'll get an awesome view. The cast member operating the boat actually asked if everyone would like to just stop and watch the fire works or just try and get through the ride and everyone agreed they wanted to stop for the fireworks and she said it was so cool.
Thank you for this video, I grew up going to disneyworld but I'm going to disney land in like 3 weeks and this video has helped me tons!
Thanks for the tips! Great video.
I’m so happy that they let you bring water with you!! We both have to drink a lot of water since it effects our health. My mom and I will be going to Disneyland in June and I’m doing some research and I’m happy your video came up first to watch! Thanks dude!
Nice vid! GREAT idea to do one for first timers. But folks if I might add something here: (this vid did ONE ride before lunch)...YES get that Space Mtn (or Indy) fastness FIRST but then go over to PIRATES in the morning. NO wait, but mid day is a long wait, and a ride that is NOT to be missed:) Stuff of that nature: KNOCK OUT RIDES BEFORE LUNCH!!
I've had a terrible couple of days and this video made me happy! I love your videos and personality, you made me smile thank you (:
so helpful! My family and I are going to disney this Thursday ! It's not my first time but it is theirs and this is so helpful thanks!
I'll be there Thursday vlogging the Lunar New Year celebration. Have fun and take a bunch of pictures.
This was great timing then! :) Have a magical time!
I'm going to disneyland for the first time this summer, thank you!
i've been to disney too many times i've lost count and i still found this entertaining good job!!'
Courtney Lopez hi! I have a question, I’m actually planning on doing a trip to Disney for April 20-22th this year (surprising my mom since it’s her dream to go there) Do you think it’ll be really crowded those days?
Thank you so much for this! We are headed to Disneyland for the first time next month with our 4 year old. Do you have any tips for parents of toddlers and/or special needs kids? I read they have some amenities but I’d love to see what they are.
Going there today after 9 years 💜
Oh my I am watching this on Jan 16; 2018! Planning a visit in June 2018 with family
Thank you so much this video was very useful! It’s our first visit this year in August xx
First time viewer of your vlog/channel 👍🏼 Just subscribed!
I've been a Dinseyland goer for over 15 years and my friends and family have all worked/work for the parks. This was a great guide! Great job! Of course there's more to learn but for first timers good job!
Thank you so much!!!
Just wanted to say, I love your videos! Im from the Philippines and in June of 2015, my best friend and I saved up enough money to fly to Anaheim and visit Disneyland. It was my third time, and her first; and we managed to ride everything within three days! I wish Id known about your channel back then, I could have said hi if we'd seen you😊
This was very informative. My family and I are going in April. It is our first time and I think I'm more excited then the kids are LOL. We are also celebrating our daughter's 7th birthday down there. Very excited for that.
Thanks for the tips even though I’m not going anytime soon because of Covid-19 but ur actually one of the only channels that gives actual tips and I like how u give them while ur in Disney rlly gives the atmosphere!
Thanks for the tips, it will be my first time in summer!😁😁
Greetings from Mexico
we are taking our kids for the first time this week Thursday-Saturday thanks for the tips I have not been in over 15 years!!!! Ii cant wait i think i am more excited then hey are lol
love your video you gave great information
Your videos are awesome Max!!!
If I go in autumn or spring, I always take a pair of shorts and a pair of jeans and keep them in a locket with the jacket. I switch between the two, depending on what the weather is like!
I’m going to Disneyland soon thanks you for helping me plan a fun time at Disney!
Would love to see you do some more land tours!!!!! They're my favorite
