Disneyland is the ultimate vacation destination for families and kids of all ages. However, a trip to Disneyland and the Orange County area can be expensive, especially if you don’t plan some things ahead of time. And we want your trip to be magical, so we’ve been making some notes over the years and can offer some helpful tips on how to do Disneyland on a budget.

Save money on your Disneyland trip

Here are some tips on saving money on your Disneyland trip, including the essential money-saving tip of hiring a transportation service such as a car service from LAX to Disneyland. After all, traffic in the Anaheim area can be a doozy, and parking at Disneyland is $25 a day.

  1. Stay off-site – In most cases, we recommend that Disney travelers stay at a Disney property. Even though accommodations in a Disneyland Resort hotel can be expensive, it has benefits, such as early admission to the park and proximity to the attractions. But, if you are trying to visit Disneyland on a budget, it might be worth it to stay off-site. Consider staying at a hotel or Airbnb off-site to save money on accommodations.
  2. Plan your meals – Disneyland food can be pricey, and kids can be picky, so plan your meals ahead of time and bring your snacks and drinks to save money. Just make sure your snacks are packed in plastic bags or containers (no glass is allowed on the property), don’t require refrigeration, processing, or reheating, and don’t have a pungent odor.
  3. Buy your park passes in advancePurchasing tickets in advance can save you money and help you avoid long lines at the park.
  4. Use discount codes – Look for Disneyland discounts online or through your employer or membership organizations to save money on tickets and other park amenities.
  5. Buy souvenirs outside of the park – Disneyland souvenirs can be expensive, so consider bringing your own souvenirs, such as Disney-themed t-shirts or hats, to save money. You can also purchase Disney-themed souvenirs at several stores in and around the area.
  6. Use public transportation or hire a transportation service – Consider using public transportation or ride-sharing services to get to and from the park to save money on parking fees. If you don’t like the idea of public transportation or ride-sharing, hiring a transportation service such as a car service from LAX to Disneyland can be a cost-effective and convenient way to get to and from the park, especially if you’re traveling with a large group.
  7. Go during the off-peak season – Avoid peak season, such as summer and holidays, to save money on accommodations and park tickets. According to Disneyland’s website, the best time to visit Disney is mid-September through mid-November (before the Thanksgiving break). Mid-January through mid-March is also a good time when potentially lower crowds are expected (but be sure to see when the locals are on spring break first, as that might be a good week to avoid).
  8. Look for free entertainment – Disneyland offers plenty of free entertainment, such as parades and fireworks shows, that you can enjoy without spending extra money. Also, check out other Disneyland things you can get for free.
  9. Check for package deals – Disneyland offers package deals that include park tickets, hotel accommodations, and transportation, so be sure to check for deals that fit your budget.

Are you planning a family vacation to Disneyland? If you are, there’s no doubt you’ll enjoy all the magic Disney offers. But we know one thing that isn’t all that magical – Anaheim traffic. The unfortunate truth is that Anaheim and the surrounding areas are well known to have heavy traffic, particularly around popular tourist destinations such as Disneyland, the Anaheim Convention Center, and the Angel Stadium.

The traffic can be incredibly congested during peak travel times, such as holidays and weekends. Additionally, the city is located near major highways, including the I-5 and CA-91, which can also contribute to heavy traffic in the area. So for this vacation, why not keep it magical and take transportation worries off your plate?

3.   Time-saving

We can’t emphasize enough how much time you’ll save hiring a shuttle service. You won’t have to waste time looking for parking or navigating through traffic, which can be particularly time-consuming in a busy city like Anaheim. Instead, you can use the time to relax, plan your day at Disneyland, or unwind after a long and thrilling day navigating one of our favorite American theme parks.

4.   Cost-effective

Many vacationers worry that a Disneyland shuttle service with car seats will be expensive. But trust us, it is more cost-effective than you might realize. When you factor in the cost of parking, gas, and other expenses associated with driving yourself, hiring a car service can save you money (not to mention plenty of stress and headache). Additionally, we provide transparent pricing so you know what to expect, regardless of the type of service you select. We provide various options, including town cars, private SUVs, private vans, and a private Sprinter van.

When planning a family vacation, you don’t want to be limited to other schedules, nor do you want to try and coordinate arrival and departure times around LA traffic conditions. With a CA-based transportation service, you can choose when to leave, how long you want to stay, and when to return. This allows you to explore Disneyland at your own pace without feeling rushed.
