Our Tokyo Disneyland Winter Trip Report covers our January 2017 visit to Tokyo Disney Resort–consisting of Tokyo Disneyland, Tokyo DisneySea, and a variety of hotels and Ikspiari–just outside of the city of Tokyo, Japan. This visited occurred during “Sweet Duffy” and “Frozen Fantasy” seasons. In Japan, Frozen Fantasy takes on dual meaning; it is freezing in the winter–and occasionally snows!
This report covers our step by step experiences in both parks over the course of 4 days as we share some of our touring strategy, thoughts on attractions & dining, random anecdotes, and opinions along the way. If you don’t care what we have to say, that’s cool, too, as the report will also include hundreds of photos of Tokyo Disneyland and Tokyo DisneySea, with a variety of sunset and night photos.
While this trip report will be written in a way that allows you to join us vicariously, we’ve also included details (and plenty of links, all of which will open in new tabs/windows) for those of you doing your own trip planning to Tokyo Disney Resort. As we’ve now said countless times, Tokyo DisneySea is the #1 Disney park in the world, and Tokyo Disneyland is our #2. We strongly encourage any Disney fan with the resources and time try to take a trip to Japan. It’s a bucket list destination you won’t regret visiting!
Oh, and good news! I’ve learned from past mistakes and your feedback, and I’ve already written this entire report before posting any installments. Well, at least the first draft (I’m sure more text will be added once all of the photos are edited and inserted into the post). It’s currently 13,540 words long, making it just shorter than Animal Farm, and with 90% fewer talking animals and relevance in Orwellian reality. Yeah, but how many Olafs and Duffys does it have?! That’s what I thought.
I’ll be posting the trip report over the course of the next few weeks, with ‘release dates’ listed below…

Part 2 – The Beauty of Tokyo DisneySea After Sunset (Coming February 7, 2017)
