the BEST castle show at any Disney Parks, it's a emotional ride.

[@CryptidColors]

Disney hasn't made me emotional in a longtime, but that drone show 😭😭😭 . Im so glad you and your family got to experience it in person!!!

Just so happy for you! I can feel sheer magic radiate through you. I don’t think anyone could have enjoyed or appreciated this park more . Dreams really do come true !

[@toxaris01]

So much fun to see DLP through your eyes. Things we don't even see anymore or take for granted, caught your attention. When you guys went trough the maze, memories for us as we got engaged in there. My wife worked in DLP during her internship and you even saw things she never noticed. You do walk from one site to the other and back. That is so much extra walking, we tent to plan (when the kids were small from bathroom break to bathroom break which I have to say, always clean and a lot of them) and, if we are tired, take the train for a full ride + to the next station and start again from there. Do have to say the food in the parks is not that great. In the sit down restaurants it's better but expensive. We love your enthusiastic approach, it really makes us want to go again!

I was lucky enough to experience the original Space Mountain in 1999 and it was and for me still is one of the best overall Roller-Coaster experiences ever!

[@rockstarlolbit2272]

Paris stayed true to keeping the storytelling in the parks

[@charlesg4640]

I did a solo trip here two years ago having never been to Cali or FL Disney parks. I’m 47 and loved it!! The rides are mostly fat-friendly and so much fun. The night show on the castle was incredible and the drones made designs in celebration of 30 year anniversary. The worst part was leaving at closing to get to the last train back to Paris. The crowds! I was afraid I wasn’t going to make the train back! Your video makes me want to go back asap! Great job as usual!

[@zoeindisneyland]

I live in the UK and I'm lucky to have visited Disneyland Paris many times over the past 10 years since my first ever first to a Disney park as a 27 year old! I've been hooked ever since. Disneyland Paris is beautiful, Walt Disney World is awesome and Disneyland is so special 💖 I've just got to get to Asia next! I really enjoyed your vlog, I love seeing people's thoughts on Disneyland Paris, especially those from the States who are familiar with the parks over there. I'm glad you enjoyed your trip! Looking forward to watching more of your videos 😊

[@amyexcell7903]

I have only been watching for 5 minutes and I’m already loving this latest vlog. Adrian, your enthusiasm is contagious and so refreshing! THANK YOU for always keeping it real, being grateful, and working so hard to bring us the magic. 🏰✨

[@MalakiaLaGattaNera]

Awesome to see an American appreciate the uniqueness of DLP! DLP is my home park and I've been going there since I was a kid but also I worked at WDW for 1 year so I am also pretty familiar with that resort. Obviously, DLP doesn’t compare to WDW when it comes to sheer size but I always found it a lot more charming. Its different, but in a good way! And very cozy ❤

[@midlightlabs]

You highlighted the dragon SO well! The lighting down there is SO dark and it’s so hard to see! For what it’s worth, there isn’t a shop at the upper level of the castle, but you can go out on the balcony and even see the snails holding the castle! And the stained glass! Definitely a must do for your next trip!! Also, as incredible as the sky parade is from the video, it can’t compare to seeing it live! It was absolutely awe inspiring watching all the floats turn and rotate! And it was so good to see the Gardens of Magic still up! Those mobile style statues were our motivation for going for the 30th!!

[@leehamilton8344]

That was a gazebo when you entered. So happy for you. This was amazing to see Disneyland Paris.

Paris! What an incredible adventure to share with us. The dragon under the castle and the drones blew my mind! Thanks for sharing! - Tammy

[@Mr17051963]

We love Disneyland Paris since the first time we visited it!!!!! 😍 But the first version of their Space Mountain (From Earth to Moon) was so much better than the Star Wars version. The cannon outside the building was part of the first theme ride.

I am happy that you enjoyed DLP. It is a beautiful park!, but you didn't go up in the castle? 😱😱 it is not a shop but there is an attraction/tour with beautiful tapestries, figures and amazing stained glass telling the sleeping beauty tale...very worth visiting...I guess you show it in another video 🙂

As soon as you said phantom manor is your most anticipated ride, I knew I was gonna love your vlogs 😊😊 I love watching people visit my home park for the first time and you have such great energy! 💖

[@subashnigovender807]

Went there in July '24. Was the most emotional trip I've ever done!

[@catski23]

Wow! Love your first video of Disneyland “Paris;” Adrian. I’ve always know that they had the coolest & most beautiful castle; and that their Discovery Land is so much much more creative than Disneyland’s Tomorrow Land; but had absolutely no idea how magnificent their nighttime Drone & Fireworks show was going to be! My family is closest to Disneyland in California; and their fireworks are canceled quite often, due to windy conditions. Definitely can’t wait for you to return to the Paris Parks; so that Koda can witness the Magic; in person 🥰❤️🙏🏻

[@nightowlnzab]

DLP deserves a lot more love, it's really a "love letter" to the original park, the imagineers cranked everything up (detail, beauty, improved versions of many rides) - but sadly they just haven't had the investment in new attractions. Studios is obviously getting Frozen and a bit of a renovation, but there's hope some announcements will come for the main park. The drones do sometimes get cancelled if it's too windy, and DLP is a bit restricted in their nightly show to these "low level" fireworks, due to noise issues, but several times a year they are allowed to do much bigger shows, one should be coming up soon for Bastille Day, which in the last couple of years has been an amazing combined drone+fireworks show, well worth looking up a video of that...

[@philippeplouchart8156]

Electric show. Thanks. Happy traveling.

[@Ivaana3110]

It's beautiful to see how you appreciate our European Disneyland 🥰🩷 Btw Love your energy 😊

[@laurakrauss6638]

Paris! Glad you had fun! Went there in April and am honestly kicking myself in the butt after now watching the fireworks! They looked amazing in your video! Space mountain and the avengers roller coasters were both very intense!

[@SophieKean17]

As a Brit, dlp is my home park. Loved watching this! The drone show is INCREDIBLE!! Its a shame that the one at springs doesnt quite live up to this from what ive seen!

[@LunaLikes23]

For America, springs is a great drone show. We [America] is late to the drone game for some reason. Paris blows Springs out of the water!

[@The7QueenJ]

You so deserve this trip and so much more! Thank you for always taking us with you!!!!!!!!!! Now I got a new destination on my bucket list!!

[@disabledisney]

I ADORE YOUR ENERGY AND EXCITEMENT!!! Thank you for loving our park, it gets so much hate, especially from USians! Everyone likes to focus on the bad, it's a nice breath of fresh air to see someone focus on the good, and just mention some of the not so great things (like the Small World facade; which- it was closed FOREVER, and for some reason the paint in this park just doesn't mesh with the weather!) without it ruining the good stuff! A Million Splashes of Color is so fun! For us in Paris seeing Moana is rare, and this is actually the first time we got to see Mirabel! The only reason why it's not as 'loved' (with this I mean you can get a good spot pretty late) is because it came right after Dream and Shine Brighter, which was absolutely out of this world. It was the first show after COVID, the 30th anniversary, so it will forever be dear to people if only for that. But the MUSIC! I still know the entire choreography xD If you haven't seen that yet, I'd recommend looking it up! That dragon used to terrify me as a kid xD Nothing will ever beat the Efteling's Villa Volta for me as best ride music, but the music from Phantom Manor is a VERY close second! DLP is so fat friendly. I watched the WDS video first and I know you said you were sure you wouldn't fit Crush, but I wouldn't be so sure! And RC Racer has two bigger seats! I always watch the drone show form midway down Main Street so you can see the drones go properly over the castle, but now I got to see the images on the castle, hah! Thankyou for that! (Paris!)

[@diamantboub3472]

I love your videos! Welcome to Disneyland Paris ^^ For Discoveryland, the land was built on the theme of inventors: Jules Vernes, which is why there are lots of references to the world of inventors. There was initially Space Mountain: From the Earth to the Moon and you also have the submarine from "20 feets under the sea" and the inflatable balloon (Hyperion) from the book: "around the world in 80 days". If one day you come back to Disneyland Paris, I will be delighted to accompany you ^^ Have a nice day and Bonjour de Paris.

You're lucky you got to see electrical sky parade. Its supposed to stay till 6 January i hope they will lengthen it. Most amazing thing ive seen in my life

[@timsamanthony]

Fun fact: The Old Mill restaurant used to be a ride where you sat in like big buckets like a ferris wheel Also I went in April this year for my birthday, we have been a few times before that though, and as always, it was awesome, the music for Small World stopped near the end so people just ended up singing it and the cast members didn't know until we got off the boat and told them. I am also so glad they brought back Illuminations as it was Disney Dreams when we went and I personally though the Disney Dreams firework show wasn't as good

[@nightowlnzab]

DLP is detailed and beautiful, and has some of the best versions of rides in other parks, but I'm sure they'd have loved some of the new attractions that've come to the US parks. While Studios in Paris is getting some work done, that's really just fixing mistakes of the past with that weak park. Meanwhile the "castle" park hasn't had a new attraction in many, many years... 😔

[@nadineschulze8914]

[@kathleenyoshida8170]

I spent my early teen years and on at Disneyland. My Aunt and Uncle worked on the "E" ticket rides and would collect lunch bags full of those hard to come by "E" tickets to give to me. They could each sign in 4 people so my group of friends and I would be dropped off at the park several days a week during summer, the Aunt and Uncle would sign us in and we were off to enjoy everything the park had to offer because we could use those "E" tickets on every single ride. All we had to spend money on was food and souvenirs if we wanted something. Long introduction to my point lol! One of the things we enjoyed was Main Street USA where you could interact with the town folk. They always had costumed people hanging around and interacting with the guests. In fact one time they had a couple of old men sitting on a porch and they scared some of my friends since they though they were fake and freaked out when they started talking to them lol.

[@raphaelfriquet2618]

In the origins of Disneyland Paris, back in 1992 (when it was still called Euro Disney), Discoveryland was inspired by the SteamPunk movement, and Jules Vernes of course. Thus the Hyperion Cafe style and the Space Mountain outdoor facades. I have had the chance to ride this one (in 1996 I think) with the original interior settings and it was so much better than now, with Jules Vernes scenery and the Georges Méliès' moon! Much more effects than now. Some rumors say the ride will abandon the Star Wars theme and bring back the original one, which I really hope for ;)
