Personally, I would put the Tiki Room on this list too. I feel like it’s really underrated and no one really ever mentions it in these videos. It’s been one of my favorites since I was a kid. Plus, there’s never a long wait, there’s lots of seating, and it’s air conditioned, so it’s a perfect respite on a hot day. Just my two cents though. 😁

Great tips! My family just went to Disneyland a few weeks ago and found all the attractions that you listed to be easy waits. We also ate at Rancho Del Zocalo and loved the food and large, covered seating area! I also love when you talk about what the lines look like compared to what you think the wait will be. Since I'm not a local and don't go to Disneyland all the time I have a hard time figuring out what lines I should and shouldn't get into. Thanks for your great, helpful videos!!

Back when the parks re-opened after the Covid closure, Genie+ wasn't a reality yet and they didn't have fastpass anymore so every ride was a regular stand by. It was fantastic. I know the crowds were lower since they were limiting reservations and people were still hesitant to go out into heavily crowded places, BUT the lines moved and were easy waits. Space mountain was super easy to get onto but as soon as lighting lane came along, we would rarely ride it since the standby is so painful to wait in. That last hallway before the standby and lightning lane lines merge is miserable. It's loud and stuffy and just a slog as you wait to see if your group will make the cut. I would love if they tried for just a month removing any and all lightning lanes. I think the results would be surprising, at least among passholders.

Helpful overall, as always! A comment and question to add! Comment: it IS important to be aware that the Plaza Inn will have little-to-NO outside available seating at SOME times of the day! Those times are usually tied to the "reserved" areas for those on paid tours &/or dining packages connected to parades &/or nighttime shows! I've got BOTH for my upcoming Sept. trip! Question/request: PLEASE consider a similar video &/or list/tips/conversation re: the attractions with "single rider" options! Though few, it would be VERY helpful to know which DO have SR options, especially if those SAME attractions have G+ */or LL's as well! THAT info is hard to find and overwhelming for the occasional visitor to flush out! TIA!

I’m so glad Disney took mobile order out of Rancho. I could never understand why the return window would be 30+ minutes out and then there was no one else picking up food when I get there. The worst part was the standby line would be all the way out the door. I think Disney needs to manually adjust the return window based on actual usage when this happens at other food locations (Hungry Bear).

You should have mentioned Indiana Jones. It may break down a lot but the lightning lane only goes until you enter the temple, which is nothing. And it is like runaway railway where the queue is very enjoyable once you are in the temple.

In our experience Peter Pan is only under 40-50 mins at the very end of the day, or super early. We tend to go later. I LOVE that ride but I feel you - we pass it up if it's that long unless we haven't been in 4-5 visits/can't return for a while. .I think that's why during the holidays it's an average of 55-60 mins, at least during the week. If you have money and time to go on the weekends I think that's when it's shorter. ZoCalo is also a longer wait when we go and there's usually not much seating. We've sometimes had to wait for a table to open up, and take it while it's dirty because rather not stand there longer and wait. Lol

Just so you know, I think he's going early and that's why it's like that...or maybe due to the specific day. My family has passes but we don't go on weekends and we tend to go in the afternoon and it's a flipped experience. ZoCalo has a longer wait, probably because only 2 registers and it sucks that there's hardly any place to put your tray... (I bring silicone lids to put over drinks because they don't give lids...). The Galaxy's Edge restaurant tends to have plenty of space and goes quickly for us...almost every time. Opposite of ZoCalo. The mainstream dining he showed is also pretty busy in our experience BUT it goes fast! They have at least four registers and seem more "on it". We personally don't like to feel cramped so we eat outside at that location because inside is always packed when we go, and even the outside can be a challenge for a place to sit. Peter Pan is rarely ever under 40 mins in our experience. During the holiday season it averages at 55. And it does take that long. Lol It's still worth it if you can't return anytime soon.... it's one of my favorites but we don't go on it much because of the wait. Anyway, if you're going for rope drop or on a weekend I think that's when David's tips will work fine! Otherwise I'd be aware it could be super different. 💖 🏰🧚♂️ Have a great time!
