In this episode, The Travel Genies discuss their recent trip to Disneyland. We were struck by many of the differences between Disney World (Orlando, Florida) and Disneyland (Anaheim, California).

Some of the differences include property size, number of parks, and resort hotel options. Considerations for deciding whether to visit Disneyland vs Walt Disney World were size, types of attractions, number of rides, characters, fireworks. The Travel Genie (TheTravelGenieShow.com) answer the question of how many days to spend at Disneyland and whether you should get park hopper tickets.

Being a Travel Professional specializing in Disney allows me to share with others some of my life’s greatest passions: planning, helping people, finding happiness, and of course, Disney. Having been to Walt Disney World many times as well as to Disneyland, Aulani, and Vero Beach, being a member of Disney’s Vacation Club, and moderating the largest Disney group on Facebook don’t hurt either! My clients feel and appreciate both my joy and my knowledge; their trips and entire experiences benefit from the whole package I can offer.
