I'm an admitted Disney-lover, and I never run out of things I want to check out or just simply experience again. There's enough to do at Disneyland and California Adventure to keep people busy for days, but you can have a fabulous visit in just a couple of days if you use a few of our secrets.

Ready to Go? Use our Disneyland Getaway Planner and you'll be ready in no time.

Disneyland is Popular For: Family outings and a hit with kids of all ages

How Far? Check the map at the beginning of this gallery to see which getaways are closest to your starting point. Most weekend-trippers limit their adventures to about three hours' travel time and most drive there. If you're going by car, Disneyland is Within 200 Miles of Bakersfield, Los Angeles, Orange County, San Bernardino and San Diego.

If you don't mind flying, you can expand your range. Compare airfare prices at Kayak.com. Try Orange County Airport (SNA) which is much closer to the park and less hassle-fraught.
