Ticket price query - Disneyland website v Undercover Tourist

Question

Hello

I will be purchasing 3 x 4 day Disneyland park hopper tickets with Lightening Lane multipass (for dates in late June/early July).

I have looked at the prices on the Disneyland website and the total is $2,091. I have also looked at prices on the Undercover Tourist website and the total for the same tickets is $1,763, however it says the savings compared with gate prices is $105, which doesn't add up. Am I doing something wrong, or is this just a really good deal on at the moment with Undercover Tourist?

I would appreciate some advice as I don't want to make any mistakes when I purchase tickets.

Thanks, Cassie

Answer

When purchasing Disneyland tickets, it’s important to understand the differences between prices listed on the official Disneyland website and authorized third-party sellers like Undercover Tourist. The discrepancy you’re seeing is likely due to a combination of factors including dynamic pricing, seasonal demand, and how “savings” are calculated.

Key points to consider:

Disneyland uses dynamic pricing, meaning the official ticket price varies depending on the day of the week, season, and expected crowd levels. This is why tickets for late June/early July (peak summer) are higher than other times of year.
Undercover Tourist is an authorized seller but often offers discounted tickets based on bulk purchasing or slight price reductions. The “savings” they advertise may be compared to gate prices (the price you would pay if buying at the ticket booth on the day of entry), not the current online Disneyland price.
Third-party prices sometimes do not include add-ons like Genie+ / Lightning Lane passes, or may include them differently. Always double-check what is included.

Advice for purchasing:

Confirm that the Undercover Tourist tickets include the same type of passes (Park Hopper + Lightning Lane) for the exact same dates.
Check if Undercover Tourist tickets are digital or physical. Digital tickets are generally immediate and safe, but verify their redemption process.
Be cautious about price differences that seem too good to be true; make sure the seller is officially authorized by Disneyland. Undercover Tourist is reputable and widely used.
If timing is flexible, consider booking sooner rather than later. Prices can rise as your dates approach, especially during summer.

In summary, the lower price on Undercover Tourist for your 3 x 4 day Park Hopper + Lightning Lane tickets is plausible and likely represents a real discount compared to gate prices, though not necessarily compared to Disneyland’s current online pricing. As long as the tickets are verified to include everything you need, purchasing through Undercover Tourist is generally safe and a good way to save money.
