Hillary's Travel Tips for Anaheim

What are the best places to eat and drink in Anaheim?

I have several food allergies and also kids that don't want more than an allergy friendly menu. We were pleasantly surprised at how many options the Anaheim Packing District had. My toddler could get French Fries (Georgia's Kitchen) , my preschooler loved a specialty popsicle (Popbar). my husband loved his fish and chips (The Chippy Fish & Grill) and I found several allergy friendly options at Healthy Junk at the House. For a family with different preferences, this worked really well for us.

What are the best things to do in Anaheim?

We traveled mostly for Disneyland, but also went tot the Anaheim Packing District. We loved our dining experience and all the offerings at the Anaheim Packing District. Disneyland was a hit for our family. Our preschooler had been counting down the days until our visit for months. We all were able to do so much. Even at 8 months pregnant I could safely ride several rides as could my two year old.

What is the best tip for travelling with kids to Anaheim?

If you're going for a Disney trip, expect to do less than you expect. Our preschooler and toddler spent time dancing and popping bubbles. We didn't rush these moments. We knew we had so much to fit in, but moments where they could just be happy dancing weren't worth rushing. We also suggest going early. Do as much as you can before the park gets busy. We did 90 percent of the rides by 2pm just by using Genie Plus and going in with a touring strategy for what we knew our kids would enjoy most. We were then able to go back to the resort for naps and pool time.

What is your best overall travel tip for Anaheim?

Take advantage of the FASTPASS system. It was simple to book rides using the Disneyland app, and doing so saved us a lot of time and allowed to accomplish a lot each day.

What is your best overall travel tip for Anaheim?

The Disneyland Resort is a top attraction in Anaheim, but there it is exhausting. We followed 3 days at Disneyland with 3 days on the beach and it was the perfect combination of activity and relaxation.

Michelle's Travel Tips for Anaheim

What is your best overall travel tip for Anaheim?

We have too many but a tip from our photographer, Alvin, that we're now passing on to everyone else: eat at Mama D's in Newport Beach (and get the famous homemade ravioli with pink sauce). Authentic Italian comfort food that tastes like it's straight from nonna's kitchen with the friendliest service around.

Corey's Travel Tips for Anaheim

What is your best overall travel tip for Anaheim?

Carthay Circle in Disney California Adventure is completely worth the money! It was by the far one of the best meals we have ever had. For a cheaper eat in the park, I recommend Jolly Holiday Bakery's tomato soup and grilled cheese combo. Also, always get to the park early and use the fastpasses to your advantage!
