As value for money goes, the best Disney Plus bundles are hard to beat for quality home entertainment options. In addition to being packed with content, you can actually save a lot of money too. Besides receiving everything from Disney Plus itself (which already tops the list of best streaming services, by the way), you're also gaining access to others like Hulu and ESPN Plus. What's more, prices are seriously low for these offerings. It's a win-win situation.

As a result, we've put together this global guide on Disney Plus bundles to help you find the best-value package and get Disney Plus into your home for minimal effort with as many (or as few) extras as you want. For example, US readers can pick up Disney Plus, Hulu, and ESPN Plus for just $13.99 per month. That's stunning value seeing as DP on its own is $7.99 a month.

US streamers have the most Disney Plus bundle options out of anyone right now. If you like the look of the Hulu offer mentioned above but want to avoid those pesky ads, then you can get the ad-free version for $19.99 a month - and don't forget, you can cancel at any time.

Thanks to Hulu being packed with a wide range of content and much more for adults - we're talking Killing Eve, Fargo, Rick and Morty, Brooklyn 99, Handmaid's Tale, It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia, Parasite, Family Guy, Devs, and American Horror Story - it's a great companion service. By comparison, a 4K Netflix account costs $17.99 a month, so we think that this Disney Plus bundle is an absolute steal (especially as there's lots of 4K Disney Plus content at no extra charge).

Disney Plus, Hulu, ESPN Plus | $13.99 per month
This is, by far, the best Disney Plus bundle you can get. It provides something for the whole family. In addition to Disney Plus, you're receiving Hulu and its mature dramas to go with the sports of ESPN Plus. You're saving $7 per month (or $84 a year) compared to paying for each service individually too.

Disney Plus, Hulu (no ads), ESPN Plus | $19.99 per month
Like the Disney Plus bundle above, but this version gets rid Hulu's ads. You can upgrade to this at a later date if you opt for the cheaper option first. So that might be the way to go and you can see how annoying you find the ad interruptions.

Disney Plus (1-year bundle) | $79.99 at Disney Plus

Disney Plus (1-year bundle) | $79.99 at Disney Plus
If you're not fussed about Hulu and ESPN Plus, then this is the best value Disney Plus bundle around as you save over 15% compared to paying monthly. To put it another way, you're getting 12 months for the price of 10.

Disney Plus gift card (1 year) | $79.99 at Disney Plus

Disney Plus gift card (1 year) | $79.99 at Disney Plus
Buying for friends or family? Digital delivery on a date of your choosing makes timing it for special occasions super simple, whether that's a while away or today. Plus, you're essentially getting 12 months for the price of 10 by buying a year upfront. Please note: this can only be activated by the recipient if they have not already been a Disney Plus subscriber.

Just want Disney Plus on its own and not bundled with any extras? The rolling one-month subscription is just $7.99 per month. You're also free to cancel at any time or upgrade to the Disney Plus bundles above if you wish. Since the Disney Plus free trial has been axed, this is the next best option.

Disney Plus bundles - UK

Disney Plus + Star | £7.99 per month
Disney Plus bundles in the UK are much better since everyone now gets the Star channel too (there isn't a cheaper option without Star by the way). You'll be billed on a month-by-month basis and can cancel your membership at any time. The new Star channel means there's a bunch of content for an older crowd with Family Guy, 24, Grey's Anatomy, and a load of extra movies being added on top of all the Disney Plus content. Don't worry, there are parental controls if you want to keep the Star channel away from the kids.

Disney Plus + Star (1 year) | £79.90 one-off fee
If you're in full 'take my money' mode and are ready for a year of Disney Plus, you can actually save over 15% by paying for a year upfront. If you're not sure how much you're going to get out of the service and are feeling a little more cautious, then the £7.99 a month option instead is still superb value.

Disney Plus + Star gift card (1 year) | £79.90 at Disney Plus
Want an easy present for a loved one that adores Disney? This is probably the biggest no-brainer out there.

However, do remember that it can only be used by new subscribers -

O2 + Disney Plus | Free 6-month Disney Plus pass with O2
Thinking of getting a new phone or SIM only deal. Well if you sign up with O2 the network will set you up with a free six-month Disney Plus subscription (worth £48). If you're already an O2 customer, you could be eligible if you upgrade your contract, although you might want to weigh up that cost versus the value of the sub there.

Disney Plus HotStar bundles - India

Disney Plus with Hotstar bundle (Premium) | ₹299 per month
The Disney Plus Hotstar bundles are the only ways to get Disney Plus in India. You're getting a lot of content here though as it's the enhanced Premium edition of Hotstar. So as well as Disney Plus access you get multiplex and new Indian movies, Hotstar specials, and series before TV, no ads, and Full HD streaming with Dolby 5.1 audio. Content is available in English or with several dubbed options.

Disney Plus with Hotstar bundle (Premium) | ₹1499 a year
Like the Premium bundle above, but paying for a year at ₹1499 is actually a big money saver. Compared to paying the ₹299 monthly fees, you're saving a massive ₹2088 (essentially getting seven months of the Disney Plus Hotstar for free ).

Disney Plus with Hotstar bundle (VIP) | ₹399 a year
The cheaper VIP tier is only available as an annual subscription - it's very affordable though. Compared to the Premium tiers, you do still get Disney Plus movies (but dubbed only), and you lose 'English shows and Disney Plus originals'. You can only watch on one screen instead of two and video quality is limited to standard HD instead of Full HD and audio is Stereo only.

Disney Plus bundles offer a fantastic home entertainment experience. With hundreds of hours of content and some of the biggest names in entertainment on its roster, the streaming service has a lot to offer. It's growing all the time, too. Namely, you can watch Raya and the Last Dragon (the brand-new Pixar movie) at your leisure, and you're also able to see both seasons of The Mandalorian TV show via the service right now.

Not that cartoons and sci-fi are the only things on Disney Plus. Besides a ton of Marvel movies, The Falcon and the Winter Soldier (not to mention Wandavision) is here to continue the MCU story. In addition, you're also getting the full Star Wars collection of films, over 30 seasons of The Simpsons, National Geographic documentaries, and more. 

That stampede of content shows no sign of slowing down, either. Besides the Marvel shows we mentioned above, an Obi-Wan show is on the way and a clutch of others focusing on characters like She-Hulk, Moon Knight, and Ms Marvel. Even Boba Fett, Ahsoka, and the Bad Batch from Star Wars are getting their own spin-offs.
