Why choose a personalized stay in Anaheim?
Anaheim invites you to live an authentic Californian adventure, far beyond its global reputation. This Orange County destination offers a clever mix between the magic of amusement parks and Californian authenticity, all just 45 kilometers from Los Angeles.
A destination with multiple facets
Located in the heart of the Anaheim Resort Area, this city of 350,000 residents is the perfect starting point for exploring the riches of Southern California. Your custom trip to Anaheim will allow you to discover varied experiences, from the thrills of Disney California Adventure to the authentic flavors of the historic downtown area.
The Anaheim Convention Center, one of the largest convention centers in the United States with its 180,000 square meters, testifies to the dynamism of this metropolis. But it is above all the exceptional proximity to legendary destinations that makes Anaheim a wise choice: West Hollywood at 50 kilometers, Beverly Hills at 55 kilometers, and the beaches of Santa Monica an hour's drive away.
Your personalized stay will give you access to this unique geographical diversity. In the morning, you can enjoy the attractions of California Adventure, and in the afternoon discover Venice Beach or relax on the golden stretches of Long Beach, just 30 kilometers away.
The expertise of our local Travel Planners
Our Travel Planners know Anaheim and its surroundings intimately. They understand that each traveler seeks a different experience: some favor total immersion in the Disney universe, others wish to combine theme parks and cultural discovery of Los Angeles, or even incorporate Anaheim into a broader road trip to San Francisco or Las Vegas.
This local expertise allows us to create customized itineraries that optimize your time. Rather than following a standardized program, your personalized trip adapts to your whims: avoiding crowds by visiting Knott's Berry Farm on a weekday, discovering hidden restaurants in downtown Anaheim, or organizing an excursion to Palm Springs for a relaxing day out.
What to discover during your custom trip to Anaheim?
Anaheim reveals its treasures to those who take the time to explore it beyond the beaten path. Your personalized stay opens the doors to authentic experiences in this emblematic region of Orange County.
The iconic amusement parks
Disneyland Resort remains obviously the major attraction of Anaheim, with its two theme parks spanning over 200 hectares. Disney California Adventure celebrates the Californian spirit through attractions inspired by the landscapes and local culture. Our Travel Planners advise you on the best visiting strategies according to the season: avoiding the summer weekends when attendance can reach 65,000 visitors per day, or favoring the months of January and February for a more intimate experience.
Knott's Berry Farm, located in Buena Park 10 minutes from Anaheim, offers an authentic alternative with its Wild West atmosphere and historical roller coasters. This 65-hectare park, older than Disneyland, provides a different atmosphere, perfect for diversifying your stay.
Your personalized trip can also include exclusive experiences: private dinners in park restaurants, guided backstage tours, or privileged access to new attractions. Our local partners negotiate these special services to enrich your discovery of Anaheim.
Explorations beyond the parks
Downtown Anaheim reveals an unknown facet of the destination. The Packing District, a former industrial area transformed into a trendy zone, houses craft breweries, farmers' markets, and contemporary art galleries. This urban renaissance offers a striking contrast to the world of amusement parks.
Your customized trip can integrate excursions to the surrounding destinations that enrich the region. Universal Studios Hollywood,LOCATION 45 minutes away, perfectly complements a discovery of the Anaheim parks. The Walk of Fame and the Hollywood hills add a cinematic dimension to your personalized trip.
Nature lovers will enjoy escapes to the beaches of Orange County: Huntington Beach and its 13 kilometers of fine sand, or Newport Beach and its elegant marina. These seaside destinations, accessible in 30 minutes from Anaheim, allow alternation between urban sensations and ocean relaxation.
For families, a family trip may include educational activities such as the Aquarium of the Pacific in Long Beach, one of the largest aquariums in the United States with its 11,000 marine animals, or the discovery of historical Californian missions.
