Hi Isa, that's a great question! A guy named SoCalDisneyDad has a great youtube video on this exact subject for more info. I think the biggest difference is size. Walt disney world is huge compared to Disneyland. I can walk (roll actually) between the two parks in about 3 minutes. I can access rides and shows and restaurants seamlessly between disney and DCA. Anaheim has ART, which is a very good transportation system for the area. In orlando you are likely to be inside the disney complex using their transportation-also very good but I think it's slower. Another difference is the weather. Both are hot and have high UV indexes-sunscreen and protection is a must!! But california is dry and florida is very humid. I prefer the dry weather, less rain and most importantly NO disease bearing mosquitos. When I do go to Florida I am extremely cautious about this due to the increasing health hazards. Both places have other parks you can enjoy such as universal, and Knotts berry farm is very close to Disneyland. I think EPCOT is the one thing that is better in florida. If I was to compare disney world to disneyland, I like the rides better at Disneyland. They have some of the OG 1955 rides that Walt designed himself. Disneyland is very disability friendly-the friendliest place I've ever been for a wheelchair customer, but the DAS pass service is available at both parks. I hope this helps. If you want more specific details or answers please don't hesitate to ask. I'm kind of into Disney!! aloha, take care and have so much fun!!

Park passes are extra.

Buy in advance as they make you reserve the park you wish to enter in the morning and then you’re allowed to hop only in the afternoon.

please consult with Disneyland Park's online service, but if i remember correctly, both the Park entrance and Parking reservation are valid one year

Yes you can rent adult scooters or wheelchairs. These may need to be booked in advance.

You can do both parks in two days. I was surprised how close the parks were to each other and downtown Disney compared to Disneyworld in Florida. We loved incredicoaster!!

Hello, We went on Friday and Monday and we stayed close enough to see the fireworks. They only have the fireworks every second day and the light show at California adventure on the other nights you might want to see if there is a schedule as it seems to change.

Make sure you phone Disneyland itself to get the answer for this. I don't know their policies. I've heard people have had their tickets honoured if it was while the parks were closed (but you still have to reserve which day) but only Disneyland will give you a definitive answer and you'll have all your correspondence on paper.
