    ***Tokyo Disney Resort - FAQ***

    We rented a wifi hotspot from this place https://www.wi-ho.net/en/ ... there are many others. Incredibly worth it for maps, looking at menus, for the trains, etc. Worth every penny, pick up and drop off at the airport

    Have a plan .. does it make sense?

    Took more than a day or two .... In summary, it was myself and my w kids (ages 24 and 20). We do not all live in the same place, so we all flew to LAX and from there to HND. Out first time to Tokyo. This is part of my "see all the parks mission" Shanghai is the only one I have not been to...

    New to Tokyo Parks.

    I just stayed at the Hilton last week ... take the Monorail instead of the shuttles. The shuttles take you to the train station, from there you have a pretty decent walk to either park. The monorail was something like $7 USD for a 2 day all you can ride pass and it drops you off right at the...

    Have a plan .. does it make sense?

    Cool. Thanks for our trip in whole, we were planning on public transit, but to maximise Disney time ... and just simplicity after nearly 20 hours of travel when we arrive, a taxi seems best

    Have a plan .. does it make sense?

    Have a plan .. does it make sense?

    I just want to firstly say all you guys rock .. thanks so much for taking the time to reply. Realistically this might be the only time I ever go there, so I really want to maximize my Disney and Tokyo time. Really a good vacation for me is Disney, interesting museums, and just general...

    Doing just one day in the park

    I have done 1 day twice (each time in May ... 2010 and 2015) ... being from the US, I have been to the US parks a ton of times. It is very doable in one day ... especially if you focus on the unique rides ... Phantom Manor being my favorite actually ... ratatouille was very cool as well, if...

    Any advantage to staying at a Disney HK Hotel?

    I stayed on site for 2 nights, it was a really nice hotel ... you do avoid the train ride in .. which while not long, probably involves a transfer. It really depends on if you want to do more stuff in Hong Kong proper or Disney. IIRC, the last train to Disney was at midnight, so if you are...

    Have a plan .. does it make sense?

    Actually we arrive on a Monday afternoon... so I was thinking Monday late afternoon/evening at Disneyland ... Tuesday at Seas ... then Wednesday (or Thursday) just do anything we missed/really want to do again at both parks on the hopper day. My thought really being that the day we get there...

    Stupid question: How many Disneylands are there outside of the US

    I have been to Paris (twice) and Hong Kong (once), doing Tokyo in 2018 and Shanghai at some point. They all have some things in common for sure, but each is unique enough to make it worth while.

    Have a plan .. does it make sense?

    Thanks ... that might be a good way to go. This was easier to plan out in Paris (stay in Paris, take the train to Disney, you can KO both parks in 1 day in the off season easily) :)

    Have a plan .. does it make sense?

    Was the Hilton in a good location to get into Tokyo as well? If so, that would work out well, I have a enough Hilton points I could use to pay for at least 3 nights there.

    Have a plan .. does it make sense?

    Thanks so much for your help ... we will see how it goes .. I guess it really comes down to we only have so much time ... they will need to prioritize ... and they are obviously old enough that we do not all have to do the same thing at the same time.

    Have a plan .. does it make sense?

    I think she just wants to look at stores and make some purchases ... nothing really formal. March works out well because they are both on spring break and I know I will be slammed on some projects over the summer ... so it is March or wait until 2020... as we have 2019 US Disney plans for the...

    Have a plan .. does it make sense?

    That might be the way to go .. I'll see both my kids this weekend and see what they are thinking ... I think they are debating between more Disney time and more Tokyo time .. personally I am fine either way ... this is mostly their trip as a reward for some good work in college on both their parts

    Have a plan .. does it make sense?

    Thanks for the reply ... my kids are actually 1 boy and 1 girl. I had planned on 2 rooms (1 for them, 1 for peace and quiet at night for me :) ). I looked a little into AirBNB places and found a few 2 BR places that looked good ... and less $ than 2 rooms .. and with more western style beds ...
