Shanghai Disney land tips

Let’s start this in a chronological order haha. Firstly to save on the tickets, (PROTIP 1) consider buying the tickets early (10 days in advance) so you can get your hands on early bird tickets, which saves you about 10SGD (quite abit in my opinion) Once you gotten your ticket, you’ll most probably ask if you should get the premier access ticket and that really depends on you! For myself, I went alone as a solo traveller so quite flexible and my goal was to take only the key rides. So I only bought the premier tickets on the Disney resort app for the Seven dwarf and soaring (not worth it), cost about 180Yuan for each ride. (PROTIP 2) If you plan your time right and go early (0830-0900) you definitely don’t need any premier access tickets. But if you’re travelling with family, can consider the combo deals on the app and premier tickets if you wanna skip the queues. Key rides with long waiting times: - Soaring Over the Horizon (family friendly, not a thrill ride btw!, 6/10) - Roaring Rapids (wet ride, bring poncho!, 9/10) - pirates of the Caribbean battle for the sunken treasure (cinematic ride with AR and 4D effects, 10/10 recommend to try) - seven dwarf mine train (roller coaster, not really thrilling, but not bad, 8/10) - Tron Lightcycle Ride (thrilling ride, 15/10) Either ways, (PROTIP 3) do download the Shang hai Disney report app on AppStore, and plan your routes, to conquer all rides you wanna go for. The app shows you a map that helped you navigate along with key attractions waiting time and showtimes for parades and meet and greets. So now you have gotten your tickets and you are a day away from your trip. Here are some things you might consider packing to make your trip more enjoyable. (I went during summer in July, which is also when China have their summer breaks, 暑假, so there are alot of people with super long queues) PROTIP 4: packing list *****passport you use to book your tickets 1. Sunscreen (protect your skin!) 2. Umbrella/ Poncho (umbrella helps to shade yourself, in case it rains as well and poncho u can wear for wet rides) 3. Shades/ bucket hat/shades (explanatory, ☀️🥵) 4. Water proof bag/ drawstring bag (big enough to carry your stuff) 5. Water bottle (there are water coolers around the park!) 6. Snacks (food in the park is quite exonerate so if you’re unwilling to pay for them, bring your own to snack on during long queues) 7. Portable charger 8. Ziplock bags for your passport, valuables during wet rides. PROTIP 5: Gentle reminder to wear comfortably and dress light because you will sweat alot. (Like alot 🥹) So you’re now ready for Disney land, to get there you can go for the metro. Take the Shang hai metro line 11, till the last stop. (About 10-15 mins walk to the park) PROTIP 6 Download Baidu maps for easy navigation! Final tip: There are two shows for the finale fireworks (at 8pm and 9pm, if you can, go for the 9pm one cause it has way lesser people and the feels and vibes of the show is way better!
