Your Anaheim snapshot

Anaheim is best known as the home of Disneyland Resort, making it an ideal base when Disney is the centre of your California holiday. Stay near the resort for easy park days, then add a little Orange County food, sport or beach time if you want to see beyond the parks.

Experiences worth building around

Disneyland Park

Step into the original Disney theme park, with classic attractions, entertainment and lands that reward a full day—or more.

Disney California Adventure

Explore Pixar, Marvel and California-inspired experiences directly across from Disneyland Park.

Downtown Disney District

Add an easy evening of dining, shopping and Disney atmosphere without needing another full park day.

Orange County beaches

Make a day trip to the coast for a change of pace from the theme parks and resort area.

Anaheim Packing District

Try a relaxed collection of food and local flavours when you want an evening away from the resort.

Sport and entertainment

Check what is on at Angel Stadium or Honda Center if a baseball, hockey or live-event night suits your trip.

A first-time plan

Day 1

Arrive, settle into Anaheim and enjoy a relaxed evening around Downtown Disney or the resort area.

Days 2–3

Give Disneyland Park and Disney California Adventure a full day each, with extra park time if Disney is the main reason for your trip.

Day 4

Choose a slower Orange County day, visit the coast, catch a game or return to the parks for favourites you missed.

This is inspiration, not a fixed itinerary—we can shape it around your dates, interests and travelling party.

Good to know

  • Staying within walking distance of Disneyland Resort can make early starts, breaks and late finishes much easier.
  • Check the latest Disneyland ticket, park-entry and operating requirements before travel because arrangements can change.
  • If Anaheim is part of a wider Los Angeles trip, consider changing hotels rather than spending long periods crossing the region each day.
