2-3 days
Year-round (avoid holidays)

We rotate districts, vary tempos, and weave in food stops that keep spirits high. We’ll keep detours in pocket: a café with wagashi flair and a calm shrine when crowds swell. You’ll start at 08:00 with early entry to disneyland, head to fantasyland first in Tokyo Disneyland. Booking: Book tickets 2-3 months in advance. Tip: Early entry essential to avoid long lines. Midday brings at 14:00 with parade viewing and character meet-and-greets in Tokyo Disneyland. Booking: No additional booking required. Tip: Parade viewing spots fill up 30 minutes early. Later at 20:00 with fireworks show and souvenir shopping in Tokyo Disneyland. Booking: No additional booking required. Tip: Fireworks best viewed from central areas. Wear broken‑in walking shoes to avoid blisters. Carry a refillable water bottle; convenience stores will keep you topped up.

We bias mornings for light and evenings for cooler air, leaving middays for food and transit. Wear broken‑in walking shoes to avoid blisters.
