If you’re a frequent park visitor or someone who doesn’t like roller coasters, you may be in search of a new way to tour the park. How do you get the most out of your trip to the Disneyland Resort without racing from one attraction to another?
During your next visit to the resort, try exploring with a special touring plan: The Hidden Gem Hunt! This plan will guide you through some of the most intricate details within the park, and give you a new appreciation for all that goes into making Disneyland so magical.
Since the Hidden Gem Hunt does not involve roller coasters or fast pass attractions, this touring plan is more of a checklist. I broke up the gems to find by land, but there’s no right or wrong order to finding anything on this list.
Note: This touring plan will be updated regularly as I post about more hidden gems!

Hi! Just wondering if you have an update on the “coming soon!” hidden gems? I.e Hollywood Land, Paradise Gardens Park, Pixar Pier and Downtown Disney. Thank you ?
Hi there! Hidden gems for Hollywood Land, Paradise Gardens Park, and Downtown Disney are in the queue for the next few months. Pixar Pier is still so new; I need a little time to explore and discover all its hidden gems!
