Tokyo Disneysea - How to live your dreams!

Warning: A photo-heavy post ahead (avoid using Data!!!)

If you've read my previous post on how to get to Disneysea then you definitely know that you should get to the entrance ahead of opening hours too!

In order to take the rides efficiently, (most rides out of hours spent at park) you have to plan!

Having NEVER been to Disneyland/sea before or Japan for that matter, I had no idea the scale of the park or the amount of people. If you're confident enough, I would encourage you to split up for Fastpassing and meeting up later at a fixed location. Remember to set a back-up plan to meet if you miss a time and place! (Most Airbnb hosts provide a pocket wifi, make sure it's charged because you'll surely need it).

Tokyo Disneysea - Where in my Dreams could it be?

Travelling to Tokyo Disneysea was actually much easier than expected because we did our research and I went over it time and again, trying to memorise the line names and also running different routes for different times on Hyperdia!

In Tokyo we stayed at Shibuya when we first arrived from the Narita Airport on the 17th August and we went to Disneysea on the next day. We set off bright and early (left the apartment at 7.15am Japanese time which is 6.15am local time!!!) because we wanted to be there before the park opened for the day. I would encourage you to be at the entrance to the park before the day starts as well.

Even though it might not seem like it, the park is less crowded when it is this early, it's just that no one is in the park yet, so the crowd is concentrated at the entrance.

Tokyo Disneysea - My Childhood Dream Come True xD

I never thought I'd be so excited going to a theme park at 22 years of age.

It started when I was researching on what I should be doing at the park - I mean, we knew that we were going to spend a whole lot of time inside; we knew we should be at Disneysea and we knew that the theme park was going to be expensive. 

But we didn't know what to do, where to go, what NOT to do and what we wanted...

And after my hours of research, discussion and planning/briefing altogether, I bring you a thorough guide based on my *own* expectations of the following:
  • The prep work - planning the day to hit the park, how to get tickets, which park to go, what to bring, what NOT to bring
  • The directions - how to get there, what time to reach
  • Inside the park - a ride strategy + fastpass guide, a teensy food guide, show timings
