This is still the primary must-see attraction for families with children. Located in Anaheim, the park has greatly expanded since its launch in 1954. Divided into themed sections, it can fill days of fun-filled exploration. Tomorrowland offers some of the most popular spots, including Star Tours, the Haunted Mansion and the Space Mountain roller coaster. Other favorites are the Indiana Jones Adventure, Matterhorn Bobsleds, the Finding Nemo Submarine Voyage and Pirates of the Caribbean.
The Fastpass system cuts waiting time for popular rides. If there's a long line, you can scan your admission ticket into a machine that issues you a time-stamped pass for the next available turn. This allows you to visit other attractions and then return at your designated ride time. The Package Check Service lets you check your purchases at various locations so your hands can be free for fun. Park hours can vary week to week, so call ahead. One-day pass US$66 ages 10 and up, US$56 children ages 3-9, free for children younger than 3. Parking US$12.
