My husband and I had the opportunity to visit Tokyo Disneyland and DisneySea in February 2025. This trip was more than just a visit to Disneyland; it also marked the beginning of our Asian Disney adventure, inspired by our dream of visiting every Disney park in the world. This visit was especially significant for me because it was my first time back in Japan since I was an exchange student in Okinawa in 2001.


Park 9 of 12 on our list to visit all the parks in the world.


Let me share with you our top 10 experiences:


1. **The Happy Ride with Baymax**

Based on the popular film *Big Hero 6*, this delightful attraction features upbeat music and vibrant visuals. You will find people just standing around the ride to dance and sing along; they call it Club Baymax.


2. **The Enchanted Tale of Beauty and the Beast**

This attraction tells the story of Belle and the Beast through stunning visuals and lifelike animatronics. Each scene is meticulously crafted to showcase beautiful storytelling, making it a must-visit at this park. The transformation scene was phenomenal, and I found myself wanting to sing along during the entire ride. This queue is also so fun.


3. **Pooh’s Hunny Hunt**

This innovative ride uses a unique trackless system, allowing for a different experience every time you ride. I love that this ride includes more of the Hundred Acre friends than other parks. This is hands down my favorite version of this ride in all the parks.


4. **Ride the Disney Resort Line**

This monorail journey offers panoramic views of the park and is adorned with charming Disney details. It conveniently connects to Tokyo DisneySea, the train station, and several hotels. It costs just a few dollars for a daily ticket, or you can buy a multiple-day pass and save a little.


5. **Country Bear Jamboree**

This nostalgic show features animatronic bears performing catchy songs. We found ourselves laughing and tapping our feet along with the tunes. My husband, who does not remember it from when it was in Disneyland in California, wanted to see this show twice during our two days at Tokyo Disneyland.


6. **It’s a Small World with Groot**

Tokyo's overlay version introduces Groot and his Marvel friends alongside the classic ride. The colorful scenes depict children from different cultures, and it is fun to try and find Groot and his friends mixed in.


7. **Mickey’s Magical Music World**

The musical show *Mickey’s Magical Music World* captivated us completely. The performers' high-energy dance moves and vibrant costumes made it feel like a Broadway production.


8. **Reach for the Stars Nighttime Show**

Fireworks lit up the sky to a catchy soundtrack, and the castle was beautifully illuminated with projection displays. It was the perfect finale to our first day at Tokyo Disneyland.


9. **Electrical Parade Dreamlights**

This enchanting parade featured stunning floats and beloved Disney characters, all aglow as they passed by. It was a high-energy parade that I adored.


  1. **Food**




Our favorite bites at Tokyo Disneyland:

  • Alien Mochi ($3.75) at Plazma Ray;s Diner

  • Popcorn (so many flavors) (2.50)

  • Baymax Curry ($13) and Steak Plate ($20) at Center Street Coffeehouse (make reservations)

  • Katsu Curry at Hungry Bear Restaurant ($8)

  • Mickey hand bun sandwich from Huey. Dewey and Louie's ($5)

  • Donald bun fried fish from Huey, Dewey, and Louie's ($5)


We did take advantage of mobile order and found it very easy to use. We booked a Disney Vacation Package (DVP) and that made it easy to secure dining reservations at the popular restaurants before our visit. The Baymax curry is very popular, so grab a reservation at Center Street Coffeehouse to avoid a long wait.


With the DVP package, we also got unlimited drinks at counter service locations. You didn't even have to wait in line to get them, you just walked to the mobile order pickup counter and showed them your drink coupon, order, and get your beverage.


Our trip to Tokyo Disneyland was filled with endless enjoyment. The park truly embodies the timeless happiness that Disney promises. With thrilling rides, enchanting shows, and delightful food, it's easy to see why so many people love this destination.


Additionally, the Japanese parks are the most affordable among all Disney locations worldwide when it comes to tickets, food, and merchandise. Tickets range from $54 to $75 per adult for a one-day visit, and Disney ears are priced at just $9 to $12!


If you haven't yet visited Tokyo Disneyland, I encourage you to make it a priority on your travel list and contact me to help you have the trip of a lifetime. You'll create unforgettable memories, just as we did while experiencing the magic that only Disney can provide. With this park checked off our list, we headed to Tokyo DisneySea for our next adventure.
