Best Age to Go to Disneyland 7-9 Right behind 4-6 years old, I think the best age for Disneyland is 7-9. Your kids are still excited to experience all of the Disney magic. By 9 your child can probably ride all of the rides at both Disneyland and California Adventure.

Even though Disney and Universal consider your 10+ year-old as an adult, remember to encourage them to feel the magic of childhood for as long as they can. You don't get that beautiful time back — so don't let anyone rush you, or them, through it. Even Disney. Already Have a Disney Reservation?
