Theme park resort featuring two parks, hotels, dining, and shopping.
"About 35 minutes from the city by car or RER A, the park goes all‑in from Nov. 8 to Jan. 6 with Mickey, Minnie, and friends in festive costumes, a 78‑foot‑tall Christmas tree for photos, Mickey’s Dazzling Christmas Parade and a sing‑along show to amp the spirit, plus the nightly Disney Stars on Parade with extra seasonal sparkle." - Sophie Dodd Sophie Dodd Sophie Dodd is a writer at Travel + Leisure, where she relies on her 10 years of experience as a journalist and frequent flyer to test and review luggage, apparel, and accessories to help you travel better.

"As night falls, I wouldn’t leave before catching this brand‑new nighttime spectacular that celebrates the journey of becoming a hero. Fireworks, drones, water effects, and generous pyrotechnics fill the sky and the lake, and its 360‑degree design means every vantage point feels like a prime seat." - Stacey Leasca Stacey Leasca Stacey Leasca is an award-winning journalist and co-founder of Be a Travel Writer, an online course for the next generation of travel journalists.

"A visually striking Disney park that infuses Mickey’s magic with a distinct French twist—visitors can sip champagne on Main Street and sample local treats like croque monsieur—while classic attractions such as Big Thunder Mountain and a uniquely reimagined Haunted Mansion known as Phantom Manor remain central; the park is attached to a recently reimagined Disneyland Hotel for a complete resort stay." - Carly Caramanna Carly Caramanna Carly Caramanna is a theme park and travel journalist who has spent her professional career in New York City, Nashville, and Los Angeles.

"A large, full-service resort made up of two theme parks, seven hotels, and a dining-and-shopping district that has evolved into a multi-day vacation destination since opening in 1992; recent highlights include a 30th-anniversary refresh, the addition of Avengers Campus, and the reimagining of the flagship hotel, with a major redevelopment planned to transform one park into a new Adventure World. It draws international crowds year-round—especially during school breaks, holidays, summer, and special events like Halloween and Christmas—yet remains an easy day trip from Paris and is best enjoyed over multiple days to experience both parks, seasonal events, and hotel offerings." - Elizabeth Rhodes Elizabeth Rhodes Elizabeth Rhodes is a senior editor at Travel + Leisure, covering everything from luxury hotels to theme parks to must-pack travel products.
