There are a few assumptions with this guide, such as you visiting on a moderately crowded day, reasonable use of Standby Pass (get them whenever you can, not just when mentioned in the plan), and arriving at park opening and staying to close. Efficiency is important, but Disneyland Paris is the most ornate and detailed Disneyland-style park in the world, and it is imperative that you stop and smell the proverbial roses if you really want to really appreciate all this Disney park has to offer.
Getting a lot done is important, but this itinerary balances quantity with quality. Note that this isn’t a “commando style” touring plan or strategy guide for racing from attraction to attraction to do as many as possible at the expense of everything else.
