Disney's most expensive experiences revealed… and some will cost visitors MILLIONS

If you thought a regular day at Disney World or Disneyland was expensive, then brace yourself for the price of the extra experiences that Mickey and his friends have to offer. With single day tickets to the parks continuously rising, and families forking over hundreds more on food and hotels - it's easy to spend a pretty penny at the famous parks. A ticket to enter Disneyland in Anaheim, California, when it first opened in 1955 would have cost an adult just $1, which would be $11.53 today if adjusted for inflation, while children's tickets cost a mere 50 cents. At the time of opening, however, guests had to additional fees for each ride. But these cost just 10 cents for kids and 23 cents for adults - the equivalent of $1.15 and $2.65 in today's dollars. Now, it'll cost you anywhere from $103 to $206 for a day at Disneyland and a minimum of $119 for Disney World, depending on when you go and the type of ticket you buy. And if you think that's bad, some added perks can actually cost more than a house. TikTok user known as Disney Magic Daily recently went viral on the app after they curated a list of the most expensive experiences that customers can partake in at Disney's parks. From a private VIP tour to sleeping inside the castle itself, here are the most expensive experiences offered at the Happiest Place on Earth... and how much they would cost you. Victoria and Albert's at Disney's Grand Floridian Resort If you think eating out at one of the Disney parks is expensive, just wait until you find out how much it costs to dine at Victoria and Albert's at Disney's Grand Floridian Resort. It's more than just a meal - it's a fine dining experience available only for guests over 10 years old. Described as an 'exquisite and intimate upscale dining experience' and the 'culinary crown jewel of Walt Disney World Resort,' the restaurant has a strict semi-formal dress code and a $100 cancellation free if you cancel within five days of your reservation. 'From the moment you arrive, you'll be immersed in the splendor of a bygone era,' reads a description. 'Victoria & Albert's is home to sophisticated dining spaces that feature shimmering chandelier crystals, Victorian-inspired murals, delicate embroidery, intricate lace details and other stylish touches at every turn.' As per the website, the prix-fixe menu begins at $295 per guest with an optional wine pairings starting at $155 per guest. Non-alcoholic pairings start at $115 per guest. Private VIP Tour Next on the list was the Private VIP tour of the parks, where a private tour guide takes customers wherever they want to go around the park. The tour guide escorts the guests every step of the way, teaching them about the parks, giving them secret backstage access, and allowing them to skip the main lines on rides and instead use the faster Lightning Lane entrance. Prices range from $450 to $900 per hour, with a minimum of seven hours and a maximum of 10 hours. Valid theme park admission is required for each theme park visited on the tour and is not included in the price of the tour, bringing the cost up even further. The private tour includes pre-arrival planning, a flexible start time dictated by the guest, visits to multiple theme parks, and the ability to enjoy some of your favorite attractions efficiently during your visit. Club 33 The famous and ultra-exclusive Club 33 is next, which is Disney's secret members-only club located at Disneyland in Anaheim, California. The initiation fee for Club 33 costs tens of thousands of dollars alone, with the annual fees costing another $32,000, according to a couple who made headlines last year after they were banned from the club. The LA Times reported it can cost as much as $50,000 for the initiation fee to the club, and it will guarantee Disney-lovers countless perks in the park, fine dining, and a lounge where they can mingle. Club 33 is tucked away in plain sight in the middle of Disneyland's New Orleans Square. The restaurant and club is recognized only by its '33' plaque hanging above the door, with a rumored 500 members and a further 800 on the waiting list. To become a member, you have to fill out an online form, where prospective members are asked to provide their name, address, phone number, and email address. However, submitting a form doesn't mean you'll automatically become a member, with the site noting: 'If the opportunity presents itself, Club 33 may contact you.' How the club decides who to offer membership to is up to their 'sole discretion.' Golden Oak Golden Oak is Disney's private residential community in Florida where you can live on property full time. The cluster of homes opened in 2011 with mansions ranging from the low millions to tens of millions. Homeowners get VIP perks, concierge services, and live next door to the park, with houses starting at a whopping $4 million and some even reaching $20 million. In 2023, the Daily Mail reported that one home within the community sold for nearly $10 million after 50 showings. In addition, on average, residents pay up to $30,000 a year in HOA dues. Homeowners get VIP perks, concierge services and live next door to the park, with houses starting at a whopping $4 million and have even reached $20 million Golden Oak is only a five-minute short drive to the Magic Kingdom - so close that residents can see the theme park's fireworks from their homes - and a seven-minute drive to EPCOT. Disney also handles the community's day-to-day operations and provide the residents with transportation to the parks and even gives them early access to new rides. Disney's animators and actors also come to the community's clubhouse to host seminars and the community has several restaurants. Cinderella's Castle Suite Staying in the suite in Cinderella's Castle is many Disney-lover's dream. The elusive room is hidden in Cinderella's Castle and is Disney World's most exclusive spot - no one can book it and those who stay there have to win a contest or be invited. Originally, it was intended to be an apartment for Walt Disney and his family when they stayed in Florida. Sadly Walt died in 1966 prior to park opening and so it was left unfinished for almost 30 years. In 2005 the suite was finally completed and upholstered as a 'royal bedchamber,' which can sleep up to six people. The suite consists of a salon, bedchamber, and bathroom off of a private marble-floored foyer. An exclusive elevator opens to the foyer, where on display is Cinderella's glass slipper, her coronation crown and scepter, and several pumpkins from her collection. The bedchamber isn't large, but finds room for two queen sized beds and a pull-out sofa in the adjacent parlor. Both the bedchamber and salon are furnished in the style of the era of 'the Louies,' the French rulers of the period that inspired the castle and Cinderella's story. The deco is rich in detail including nooks showcasing clocks, porcelain and accessories befitting the period. Doors are richly detailed; the walls are covered with wood panels and intricate wall coverings.

Kylie Jenner stuns fans with shock move amid Timothee Chalamet breakup rumors

has shocked fans with her latest move amid Timothee Chalamet breakup rumors. The 28-year-old beauty mogul - who recently sported a racy look for a girls' night out - has been embroiled in split speculation with the actor, 29, after the pair were last seen together over five weeks ago. However, the TV personality seemingly proved that all is well between the two when she reportedly liked Timothee's latest Instagram post on Wednesday, per E! News. While Daily Mail could not verify if Kylie had liked or possibly unliked the post, her mom Kris and sister Kendall's likes are still on full display on the post. He uploaded a new trailer for his upcoming film Marty Supreme, and they also showed their support for the Oscar-nominated star. It comes after the stars were last spotted together on July 5 during a vacation to St. Tropez, France. While Daily Mail could not verify if Kylie had liked or possibly unliked the post, her mom Kris and sister Kendall's likes are still on full display on the post The actor was also notably absent from Kylie's birthday celebration which took place over the past weekend. However, the reason for the pair's 40 days apart has now been explained. Timothee has been busy filming the sequel Dune: Part Three in Hungary, where he plays the character Paul Atreides in the third installment of the Dune franchise. 'Timothee is busy making a movie and the schedule is grueling because he is in so many scenes, he is the star,' a source told Daily Mail. 'So he has to be very focused and together to do his best work.' Even from a distance, the reality star gives him all the support he needs, added the insider. 'She helps him out as much as she can, like give him space to work and have her private jet on standby in case he needs to go somewhere fast.' The source continued, 'Kylie is a good girlfriend to him. She is always there and wants him to be happy, and if that means he has to be overseas for a few months, she is OK with it, she will wait. She also secretly jets off to see him when she can. 'Of course she misses her man and her heart hurts when he is not near, but she makes it work.' Timothee has been shooting in Budapest for the third Dune film, with his other co-stars being Zendaya, Rebecca Ferguson, Robert Pattinson, Anya Taylor-Joy, Florence Pugh and Jason Momoa. Dune Messiah will be in theatres on December 16, 2026. The IMDB logline for the film is brief: 'The film follows Muad'dib, heir to unimaginable power, as he brings to fruition the ancient scheme to create a superbeing ruler among men, not in the heavens.' Dune Messiah is a 1969 science fiction novel by American writer Frank Herbert, the second in his Dune series of six novels. A sequel to Dune, it was originally serialized in Galaxy magazine in 1969, and then published by Putnam the same year. Kylie and Timothee started dating in January 2023, were rumored to be an item in April 2023 and then they went public with their romance in September 2023. Their first red carpet together was at the 70th David Di Donatello event at Cinecitta Studios in Rome, Italy on May 7, 2025. In early July, Kylie started following Timothee on Instagram. The businesswoman boasts almost 400million followers on the photo-sharing site, but she is quite choosy about who she follows, with only 119 profiles making the cut. However, one of those is now her boyfriend of two years. Fans of TyMothée - the pair's most popular ship name - have been driven into a frenzy after spotting Kylie has allowed the A Complete Unknown actor into her close social circle. However, at the time of writing, the follow is yet to be reciprocated. The actor has 19.7 million Instagram followers, and has only shared 147 posts, compared with Kylie's whopping 7,244 posts. But the Kardashians star shouldn't feel snubbed because he doesn't follow anybody on Instagram. Kylie is mom to Stormi, seven, and Aire, three - whom she shares with ex and rapper Travis Scott. And Timothee has had the chance to meet her children. A source told People in April that the two stars are 'making it work' and added, 'Kylie is truly his biggest fan. 'She would clear her schedule to attend awards and premieres with him. She couldn't be more supportive of his career.' The insider added, 'When they are in LA together, he spends time with her kids too. Her family loves that she's dating him. They have seen such positive changes in Kylie. She's the happiest.' Earlier this month, Kylie celebrated her 28th birthday on August 10 - and jumped to Instagram to share special moments from her intimate bash. She was joined by close family and pals for the special occasion while being able to indulge in more than one sugary cake. One of the desserts was covered in white frosting and colorful sprinkles while the other was covered with raspberries. In the caption of the Instagram carousel, she gave a shout out to her older sister Kendall for planning the party. The group also had a blast painting outdoors and later enjoyed a tasty dinner as well as the yummy cake for dessert. 'best birthday ever!!!!!!! I'm so grateful to my family and friends for making this weekend so special and full of love. 28 feels so good!!!!!' The Kylie Cosmetics founder added, 'and to my sister @kendalljenner thank you from the bottom of my heart for planning everything so perfectly. I'm so lucky to have you.'

Summer trains misery with commuters facing ‘wrong soil' hell after clay under tracks dries up

RAIL commuters face 'wrong soil' hell after clay under tracks dried up so much that trains have to go slow. Services between parts of Essex and London will be hit for two to three months. Similar problems have affected the West Country after the driest spring since 1974. Infrastructure manager Network Rail said it had dropped 12,600 tons of ballast to minimise clay shrinkage on the Essex route in the past year. But this had not been enough to solve the problem. It said speed restrictions had been introduced 'to keep everyone moving safely'. One commuter said: 'I've heard of leaves on the line and the wrong type of snow. "Now the delays are due to the wrong type of soil.' Network Rail Anglia and c2c Railway, which run services across the network, apologised for the disruption. Buses will replace Greater Anglia trains for some late evening journeys on Mondays to Thursdays. Watch the shocking moment cow puts Irish Rail services to a HALT during morning rush 1
