In the video, she reveals how to avoid long line queues using the Buddy Pass, if travelling in small groups.

She explained: "Some rides have a Buddy Pass system where if you have a party of 1-2, you ask for a Buddy Pass and you can go to a much shorter line."

Some of the rides which offer the pass include the Toy Story Midway Mania and the Monsters, Inc. Mike & Sulley to the Rescue! ride.

When leaving the park, guests can also avoid the huge crowds that block the gates by choosing a different exit.

She explained: "To avoid crowds when exiting Disneyland California, go through the Grand Californian exit.

"This also makes pick-up much easier since you can wait in the lobby until your ride is here."

She also said to get the World of Colour or Fantasmic night-show fast pass in the morning, as this doesn't affect your other fast passes for the day.

Using the Disneyland app for food was also recommended to avoid queueing for snacks and drinks.

Other tricks include checking the time on your fast passes so you can get your next one as soon as it expires, making the most of your time in the park.
