Should I Park Hop or not? That is the question I ask myself each time I purchase our Disneyland Tickets.

The answer to this question depends on a lot of factors that can change from trip to trip.

What is a Disneyland Park Hopper Ticket?

A Disneyland Park Hopper Ticket is a ticket that gives you the ability to visit both Disneyland and Disney California Adventure in the same day.

You can “hop” back and forth between parks as many times as you want. You do not need to pay a separate entrance fee to visit each park in the same day.

For example, you can begin the day at Disneyland, head over to Disney California Adventure for lunch and back to Disneyland for the evening.

It is a really great way to see both parks.

Reasons to Purchase a Disneyland Park Hopper Ticket

With the Park Hopper option added to your Disneyland ticket, you get TWO parks to visit in one day.

That means double the attractions, double the shows, double the parades, double the characters, and double the dining options! So many choices, so little time. Right?

Another benefit to purchasing a Park Hopper ticket is the flexibility that it gives you.

If your family happens to be done with one park in less than a day, you can head over to the other park to spend the rest of your time.

 

Tips to Maximize a Disneyland Park Hopper Ticket

Here are a few things you can do to maximize your Disneyland Park Hopper ticket.

• The Disneyland Resort is really convenient for park hopping. The two park entrances are directly across from each other. You can literally walk from one park to the other in 2-3 minutes. It makes it really easy to “hop” back and forth. Use this convenience to your advantage and go between both parks.

• Purchase the new Disney Genie+ to reserve a spot in line for many attractions on the Disneyland app. For an extra $20/day per ticket, you can have the ability to book reservations for a Disney California Adventure attraction while you are at Disneyland and vice versa.

• Purchase a 3-day or more Disneyland Park Hopper ticket from Get Away Today for less than the gate price and get to the parks before rope drop!

• Purchasing the Park Hopper options gives you the ability to start out your Magic Morning day at Disneyland and head over to Disney California Adventure later in the day. Disney California Adventure almost always closes an hour or two before Disneyland so the Park Hopper ticket allows you to go back to Disneyland when DCA closes.

I hope these tips will help you decide if a Park Hopper ticket is right for your family. The number one reason that I purchase it for my family is because of the FLEXIBILITY that it offers.
