When we finally started our adventure.
In this lively travel vlog, the OTWD family—a full-time travel couple from the UK—tackles Shanghai Disneyland with the extended clan in tow, including the kids, sister, brother-in-law, and mum. The editor captures the magic from the moment they surprise the children with the trip, noting the jaw-dropping price difference: tickets at just £45 for kids and £58 for adults, a fraction of Florida's cost. They armed themselves with 70p Mickey ears ordered last-minute from a Chinese mini-app (Meituan) and caught a free hotel shuttle just ten minutes from the park. The queuing system, though an hour long at security, was efficient—passports double as tickets and facial recognition speeds entry. A GoPro stick got confiscated, a minor hiccup. The editor highlights two standout rides: Tron, a futuristic motorbike roller coaster with a unique back-brace safety system, which left one adult in tears of joy (and a desperate dash for the loo), and Pirates of the Caribbean, technically advanced with jaw-dropping screens and a splash finale. The castle, the largest in any Disney park worldwide, dazzled even the most cynical adults. Lone parent moments happen—the parents split up, with the editor's sister chasing thrill rides while the narrator explores the Marvel experience, a Cookie and Bakery Cafe with a rainbow cookie, and a food court where beef noodles and chicken rice hit the spot. Beer at just 25 RMB (about £2.50) scored points with the dads. The day ended with a spectacular fireworks show, cementing Shanghai Disneyland as a world-class, affordable alternative to the USA parks. The editor's verdict: it utterly exceeded expectations.
The world's cheapest Disneyland isn't in Florida or France—it's right here in Shanghai, China. Our editor breaks down a family's epic day at Shanghai Disneyland, where £45 tickets and 70p Mickey ears prove the magic doesn't have to break the bank. From the world's biggest castle to the heart-stopping Tron motorbike coaster (rated one of the best on the planet), this vlog delivers surprising comparisons to the USA parks, complete with a few sweaty queues and a turkey leg hunt.
