Getting to Tokyo Disneyland
By train
From Tokyo Station, take the JR Keiyo Line to Maihama (舞浜), which is
adjacent to the park. The rides takes about 15 minutes (¥210) on an
express train.
By car
From Tokyo and the Yokohama region, follow the coast of a bay to
Chiba, exit at the Urayasu ramp and then go out at Route 357, go
straight on the road about 1km, make a U-turn at Mihama Rittai Road
(美浜立体道路). Then, you just follow the signs.
The Tokyo Disneyland parking lot is huge and can take about 8000 cars.
In the parking lot, there are four signs: (M) Mickey, (D) Donald, (G)
Goofy, (P) Pinocchio. So, if you remember the space where you parked
your car, you can find it soon when you go back. The parking fee is
¥2000. If you want to know more information about the car park and the
circumstances of surrounding streets, you can contact the Tokyo Disney
Resort information line at 045-683-3011.
By bus
Hotels around Disney have free transportation service to Disney
Resort.
Long distance bus services come here from all over Japan.
Get around Tokyo Disneyland
The four-station Disney Resort Line monorail
connects Maihama Station to Tokyo Disneyland, Tokyo Disneysea and
Tokyo Bay NK Hall plus the resort hotels. The fare is ¥200/100 for
adults/children and the Passnet stored value card can be used. Note
that, if going to Disneyland, it's probably easier and faster to just
walk from the station.
See
Of course, you can see the same Disney characters, a castle, and
mountains, and magic performances as at other Disney Parks. The
seaside does make this park a bit different from the others. And, the
people-watching is great.
Do
The two theme parks, Disneyland and Disneysea, compliment each other.
Disneyland is the most visited theme park in the world, with Disneysea
following at a close second. The two major symbols, Cinderella Castle
at Disneyland and Mount Prometheus at Disneysea are exactly the same
height, and from Ikspiari you can see them both.
Drink
Most drinks are soft drinks. However, you can also get alcoholic
beverages in some places inside the park.
