Description
Disney California Adventure Park ('California Adventure') is a theme park located right next to its sister park Disneyland in Anaheim, California (near L.A.). It has expanded over the years since its opening in 2011 and now includes 8 themed areas: Buena Vista Street, Hollywood Land, Pixar Pier, the new Avengers Campus, Cars Land, Grizzly Peak, Paradise Gardens and Pacific Wharf. Some of the best rides include 'Guardians of the Galaxy – Mission: BREAKOUT', Incredicoaster, Grizzly River Run and Radiator Springs Racers.
Access & Transport
The park is in Anaheim is 50km from downtown LA, just off the I-5 (exit 110B) and 150km from San Diego (I-5 exit 110). Bus 460 goes there from Downtown LA and Anaheim Resort Transit (ART) Route 10 from the Greyhound bus station at 100 W Winston Rd Info on getting there: https://disneyland.disney.go.com/guest-services/getting-here/ Accessibility info: https://disneyland.disney.go.com/faq/guests-with-disabilities/
Instructions & Recommendations
*** At the time of this review update, to enter a park, both a theme park reservation and valid ticket admission ticket for the same park on the same date are required for Guests ages 3 and older ***
Environmental & Social
Disney has ambitious environmental goals for 2030 at the group level such as net zero emissions and 100%zero carbon electricity. The park itself has various sustainability initiatives (water conservation use of biodiesel, etc.) but the attractions themselves remain very energy intensive. On the social & community front, Disney Resort is a major employer locally with diversity and inclusion policies.
Conclusion
Just like Disneyland Park, do not expect guests to be the priority - the park's objective is to make money. With that in mind, and armed with patience, there are some excellent rides, theming and shows. This park probably caters more to teenagers and Disneyland to children.
Key positive
Different vibe and themes from the 'standard' Disneyland
A wide range of rides for different ages
Key negative
Very expensive tickets
Long waiting lines
Limited healthy food options and F&B is egregiously priced
Suitability
All ages welcome but best for families. Visitors with disabilities (mobility, visual, hearing) have access to special services but cannot enjoy all rides.
