With the right people at the right place, a vacation can sometimes turn into a fairy tale. Vivek took his wife and three kids on an adventure to Disneyland, Hong Kong, with a sole motive of having the time of their lives. Their 4 night/5 day family trip to Hong Kong cost them a total of INR 4,63,500 which included their flights, accommodation, transfers, sightseeing, and breakfast.
After a hectic year, I took a few days off for my family around Christmas to spend some quality time with them on a vacation. Initially, I considered Macau or Thailand as an option for an international vacation. However, I gave it a second thought, and a trip to Disneyland, Hong Kong looked like an ideal place to visit with my family.
I found TravelTriangle while browsing for a family trip to Hong Kong on google. They offered customized itineraries to travelers which was a cool feature in their tour packages. I submitted a query on their page and was impressed with the prompt response. Vartika from TravelTriangle understood my requirements and directed me to various agents offering multiple quotes for the same. I selected the best package given to me by ‘Smiling Trips’ agency.

Our top picks from Disneyland
After checking into the Disney’s Hollywood Hotel, we ventured out exploring the massive amusement park. Although, we enjoyed our entire stay in Disneyland, I’d like to give the best picks from a huge wonderland spread across 123 acres which you shouldn’t miss out at any cost.
- Adventureland
The most popular theme section in Disneyland. It takes its visitors into the remote jungles of Asia and Africa. You can choose to relive the exploits of Indiana Jones or the adventures of Tarzan in this fun-filled land. - Tomorrowland
Tomorrowland is a glimpse into the world of futuristic ideas such as Star Wars and Iron Man made popular by comics and cult movies. This area is highly recommended as the biggest Iron Man experience attraction of the world is set to open in January 2017! - Fantasyland
A magical and charming retreat for your own daughter who’s always dreamt to be a princess. Enjoy the enchanting fairy tale world with Cinderella, Snow White, and Sleeping Beauty attractions.
No better way to wind up my thoughts than by saying that Disneyland is for all ages. A myth that I witnessed getting busted first hand. I must say, that an overnight stay inside Disneyland is recommended to enjoy the amusement park without any hurry or hassles.
