If you have a car, it is the best way to get around the City of Anaheim. You can rent a care from many rental agencies located in the city. On the other hand, if you're just sticking around Disneyland, you do not need a car and there is no better way to explore the place than on foot. When you're tired of walking or for those traveling with small kids, hop on the Disneyland Monorail or the Disneyland Railroad. There is lots of parking spaces available around Disneyland and Anaheim neighborhoods, but you must be prepared to pay the high parking fees. The shuttle services also conveniently connects visitors to Anaheim Resort District from Los Angeles International Airport and Orange County's John Wayne Airport.
