I have persuaded DH that we can go away at Easter and the summer next year. We are more than likely going to be going to Ireland for a couple of weeks in the Summer.

I have come up with the idea of maybe going to DLP at Easter. He doesn't know this yet. Before I suggest the idea, I want ideas of price and how long people go for.

How long do you need for a thorough visit of DLP?
How much is it likely to cost? (kids aged 12 and 9).
Do you do other stuff too, like visit Eiffel Tower etc?

Hi Zoe
If you fly with Easyjet and book quite a bit in advance you can get good prices( less than £50 pp). If you want to budget further then stay in an offsite hotel with a shuttle bus eg the Holiday Inn where we are staying is only £70 per night for a room for 4. You could probably do everything at a relaxed pace in 3 days minimum (2 for Disneyland, 1 for the Studios). If you plan to return within the year an annual pass isn't much more expensive than a 3 day hopper. Getting into Paris is easy on the RER system and it takes about half an hour. You can then buy either a day pass on the metro or the Batobus (goes up and down to the major sites along the Seine) and see most of the important sites that way.

We've actually been a few times and driven over - staying off site in a 3star hotel, and tunnel crossing is really cheap. We used leisure direction last time and found them really reasonable. I agree though and think you need 3 full days to do the parks and the shopping!
Hope this is helpful.
