The Anaheim area offers some other great things to enjoy, if you have an extra day or two before or after you begin using your Disneyland park hopper ticket. Here you will find a few other things you can enjoy doing on your visit:
ANAHEIM RESORT TRANSIT (ART) BUS SERVICES
You will find great Bus service in front of the Main Gate of Disneyland. The Anaheim bus service is very reasonably priced. If you want to check out a great local Outlet Mall or maybe you just want to catch a bus down to Target or Walmart for some supplies. We always make time during our stay in the Anaheim area to catch the number 16 Bus to go out to The Outlets at Orange. Pick up a Bus route Map at the information booth.
ANAHEIM CONVENTION CENTRE
Throughout the year you will find a wide variety of events at the Anaheim Convention Centre. Check online to see if something fun is going on while you are visiting. Every second year you can find a Disney Expo taking place at the convention centre.
ANAHEIM GARDENWALK
An outdoor shopping, dining and entertainment center, located within walking distance one block east of Disneyland. Here you will find many excellent restaurants as well as a soon to be expanding entertainment area, rumor is House of Blues will be opening a larger concert complex here.
