I have DLP booked with Breakaway for this coming June. I booked it for 4 nights. We have 4 days passes into the park but we will be there 5 full days so on our last day since our flight home is at 9.40pm and we have to be out of our room early I thought we'd head into Paris for the day and then go to the airport later on that evening. However this would mean dragging our cases around with us everywhere we go. I see now Breakaway have Paris day trips that you can book going from DLP to Paris on a tour bus with tours around all the important sights and then they let you out for the afternoon to do some shopping, then meet up and go back to DLP. It works out at €120 for myself and the 2 kids. I'm thinking it would be better to book that for a day mid holiday and then use our last park passes on our last day there iykwim.

I'm going to ring Breakaway today but do you think they'll add it to my booking at this stage? I also had to specify when booking what days I was using the park passes so one of these will have to change to our last day too.

Has anyone had to deal with changing a Breakaway booking? Any problems?

We looked at doing this too. It is a seperate booking that you can make when you get to disney if you like. It isn't a tour that is run by Breakaway or Disney as far as i know it is run by an independant company.

Enjoy your trip :D

There is no hassle about adding a booking at this stage - but your hotel will have a luggage room where you can leave your bags for the day. You might be better off getting the train in and doing your own thing.

Alternatively book your bus trip when you get there. If you book any of these extras before you go you end up paying VAT, it will be cheaper when you get there

Disney do a full day and a night trip. leaves from the NYH. Details on website.
Train stations have luggage storage, you could get a mobils which is 14.20 per adult and will take you fron disney to paris and all day access to the metro.
I booked the eiffel tower last night, to avoid delays. Lift booked for 6pm st patricks day. 36.10 for 5 of us. 2 under 4. NO Q'S

I booked direct with disney, but had dealings with breakaway. I actually used them for most of my questions, then booked direct :blush: (sorry breakaway). AT one stage he said if "they" can do it, so can we.. Might cost though.
