Hello everyone!
I'm in the very beginning stages of planning for our February 2018 trip and my brain is spinning after reading the disney tourist blog and disboards forums. I've got a few questions and am hoping you DISers can help us
A little background: DH and I are traveling to Europe for work and are extending our stay to celebrate our one year wedding anniversary in Paris. This is our first trip to Paris and will have one week to explore - No kids, just DH and I. We travel 4-5 times a month for work, so we're pretty good with navigating new cities and cultures. We've been fortunate enough to visit WDW 5x, DCL 3x, DHK, Tokyo Disney and are in SoCal and frequent DCA several times a year. DLP is a bucket list trip and we don't plan on coming back anytime soon after this trip.
Our questions:
- we originally planned to stay onsite for only 2 nights/3 days but there's a deal offering 2 free nights so we can get 4 nights/5 days for the same price as 2 nights - would you do it? -- My concern: we would still want to explore the rest of Paris. We would split stay and stay the rest of our trip in the city. Is 4 nights at DLP and 3 nights in the city enough time to complete most of Paris' main attractions? Is 4 nights/5 days at DLP overkill?
- I've logged into a European DLP site as recommended in past posts, the price difference between Newport and Sequioa are $145. Would you make the jump to stay in Newport? Or save the money?
- half board? Full board? Or no board? - should we add on a meal plan or are we better off paying per meal?
- crowd levels in February- will it be a busy time?
Thank you in advance for your help!
