There are secrets that are waiting for us to find out. Things that might make us view our life, some event, or a place differently. And in the happiest place in the world, there are lots of secrets worth discovering. These are some things that might make our tour a lot better or will make us see something that we never knew existed.

Disneyland is a place often packed with people so most of the time, visitors tend to just fall in line or roam around the whole day for them to be able to savor every minute of their tour. And with that, they tend to miss out on some things or events in the park. But for frequent visitors and those who can visit the place several times and any time, they have a tendency to see things that other tourists can’t. And most of this people are the locals- those residing near the place and can walk around the park without worrying much about the passing minutes because they can go back when they want to. Well, the passes might be expensive for some, but the fact that they don’t need to travel far or spend too much on transportation gives them a step ahead.

Some of the locals and frequent visitors discovered several things around the park and tricks that might help you in your next visit. We have read several article about these things and compiled it in today’s list. So, here are 30 Disney secrets that only locals know.

1. Ride Lines Are Open Until Close

The statement might be weird but yet it’s true. The park closes at 10:00 PM but there are rides that have 30 minutes wait and you can still hop in line. One ride that sure has that as long as you fall in line by 9:50 PM is the California Screamin’. With this, you can go and try other rides first and make this last on your list.

 

2. Go Single-Rider

Well, most of us go to the park with friends and usually we want to ride with them. That’s the reason why the lines are usually long. But are you aware of the single rider line? If you are and you do not mind seating with a stranger as long as you can try as much ride as possible, then stand in that line.

 

3. You Can Hold FastPasses for Both Parks at Once

If you think you can handle trying out both parks in one day then you better get FastPasses for both parks. Yes, you can do that and that will let you save some of your time. You know how long those lines can get right?! With this passes, you can try rides in Disneyland and California Adventure in a day!

 

4. You Can Get New FastPasses Every Two Hours

https://tripswithtykes.com/10-differences-between-disney-world-and-disneyland-how-they-matter-for-your-vacation-planning/

Having a FastPass is a great opportunity that you wouldn’t want to miss. But, some thinks that the only FastPass you can have was the first one given. Yet, you can actually get FastPasses every two hours even if you still haven’t use the other. Like, if at noon you still have a FastPass that is not valid until 6:00pm, you can get nother FastPass at 2:00 pm. Prioritize FastPasses on your most favorite rides.

 

5. When A Line Splits, Go Left

This is not just good for lines inside the park but it can also be effective in concerts, malls, restaurants, etc. Why? Because it’s in our instinct to go right so lines on the left and shorter until people notices it. But, the line in Pirates of the Caribbean, where the actual pathway and line is longer on the left side.

 

6. Go to Fantasyland Right at Open or After Fireworks

https://www.dreamstime.com/stock-photography-tea-cup-ride-fantasyland-disneyland-ca-california-bright-sunny-day-image30416302

If you want to ride on almost everything inside the park, you must put the ride on Fantasyland first or schedule it after fireworks. Fantasyland don’t usually offer FastPasses so you really need to stand in line. The best time is right from opening because lines are just starting to build up. And run after the fireworks while other visitors are still mesmerized with what they saw.

 

7. Use the Bathrooms by the Enchanted Tiki Room

https://bunnynet.org/2014/11/

Everyone needs to go to the bathroom from time to time and in Disneyland lines in the bathroom might be as long as the lines for the rides. So, if you want to find a shorter line, then go to the Enchanted Tiki Room and look for their Bathroom. This has shorter line because it can really be hard to find.

 

8. If a Show or Parade Has Two Night Showings, Go to the Second

https://disneyland.disney.go.com/entertainment/disneyland/mickeys-soundsational-parade/

The first show are usually crowded. Not only because most of us wants to go first but also because people tend to be too excited on everything that is happening. With that, this will also be the best time for you to try some rides.

 

9. Bring Your Own Food

This is really not a secret but something that you can keep in mind. Food inside the park can be very attractive but it can also be too expensive. If you want to try some, feel free to do so but if you want to feel full without emptying your pocket, better bring your own.

 

10. Stores Are Open an Hour After Closing

If you are planning to buy some souvenirs, you do not have to hurry because the stores inside are open even an hour after closing. This can also help you choose what you will buy because there are fewer people buzzing around.

 

11. Buy Dole Whip In the Entrance to the Enchanted Tiki Room

https://www.pinterest.co.uk/pin/472666923367011038/

Dole Whip is one of the must try treat offered in Disneyland. While you’re walking around the park, you will see long lines of people who want to get this frozen treat. But, Tiki Room is really a helpful place because if you do not want to stand in long lines but you want to try this Dole Whip then go to this place. We are not really sure why but the lines in this area is almost half the size than the others.

 

12. Download Apps Before Getting to the Park

http://babesindisneylandblog.com/everything-parents-need-to-know-about-the-disneyland-app/

Did you know that there is such a thing as a Disneyland App? If you don’t then download it before your trip so that you can easily see the waiting time in each ride and where to find your favorite characters. This will let you know which ride is best to ride first.

 

13. The Best Spot to Meet Mickey Mouse is in Toontown

People usually buzz around Mickey Mouse once they saw him in the park. That’s why it is really hard to get a chance to have a picture with him. But, if you really want one, then you must wait for him in Toontown. The line is usually not too long and it’s air-conditioned so you will really feel comfortable.

 

14. The Best Castle Photo Op is to the Right Side of the Castle

We actually saw two tips in having a photo with the castle on the background. The first is choose the backside because there are fewer people but is equally as beautiful as the front. But, if you really want a photo of the front side of the castle, then go to the right and get a full castle in the shot, there are fewer distractions in the background, and most importantly, there are fewer people around.

 

15. Arrive 15 minutes before the park opens

https://www.mouseplanet.com/9571/The_Magic_Kingdoms_Most_Magical_Moments

If you want to see all the show in the park, then better go early so you can see the Train Station Welcome Show! This will be a great way to start your entire trip in the park plus the energy of the show will surely boost you up!

 

16. PhotoPass Cast Members will take free photos of your family with your camera or phone

Anywhere we go with our family, we usually want to have our photos taken especially a photo with everyone on it. But, that can be hard if you do not have a tripod and can be unsafe if you do because someone might bump into it. No worries, the PhotoPass Cast Members can take free photo of your family using your own camera. You will also be sure that they won’t run away with your phone or camera.

 

17. There is a special flag located in a window on Buena Vista Street.
