Tokyo DisneySea Travel Guide: My Experience + How to Get Tickets
Is DisneySea or Tokyo Disneyland on your list of things you’d like to do in Tokyo? But, you’re not sure you want to add a hectic day of waiting in lines to your Japan itinerary? A trip to DisneySea or Tokyo Disneyland does NOT need to be stressful or overwhelming!
If you’re interested in securing restaurant and ride reservations, then I definitely recommend watching other YouTube videos that provide thorough tips, because it seems quite complicated.
However, our group collectively decided that we didn’t want to do all of that. We wanted a stress-free day where we could take in the Disney magic at our own pace. We were there for the vibes and wanted to see what it was like at Tokyo DisneySea.
I still 100% think DisneySea is worth a visit, even if you don’t ride any of the rides. Simply walking around the different lands and checking out the DisneySea or Tokyo exclusive merch was worth it for us.

My Experience: Tokyo DisneySea Review
It was so fun spending quality time with my family at DisneySea.
Japan has opened a new way for our family to get together—and I love it so much.
I get to show them places I love, and we get to explore new places together and create new core memories. I’m so grateful for the time spent together.
If I had to choose one Disney Park to go to in Tokyo, it would be DisneySea because it’s the only one like it in the world.
DisneySea tickets are relatively easy to get. We purchased our tickets online and then downloaded the Disney Resort app to manage our group reservations.
If you’re interested in securing restaurant and ride reservations, I recommend watching other YouTube videos that provide thorough tips, because it seems quite complicated.
However, our group collectively decided that we didn’t want to do all of that.
We wanted a stress-free day where we could take in the Disney magic slowly, at our own pace.
We were there for the vibes and simply wanted to see what it was like at DisneySea.
After lunch, the weather started getting more and more overcast, with rain most definitely on the way.
So while our parents took a break to rest, my cousin and I decided to power walk our way through to see the rest of the lands.
We took many photos and checked out all the interesting rides and merch around the park.
Each land was so built out and wildly different from any I’ve seen before.
It was so cool to step into Agrabah and the world of The Little Mermaid.
There is so much to see, and the Disney Parks in Tokyo are larger than those in Anaheim, California.
Definitely plan your day accordingly if you want to see everything in one day.
