Mickey and friends invite you to Japan for a wild ride above and below ground! Tokyo Disney Resort lets you encounter the magic in two amusement parks: Tokyo Disneyland and Tokyo DisneySea.
Home to 330 attractions scattered across seven themed areas, Tokyo DisneySea is the first and only marine-themed Disney Park in the world where the essence of Disney, Tokyo, sea, and magic come together harmoniously.
With that, you can expect more heart-racing rides than the average Disneyland, but also tonnes of attractions suitable for kids!
What's special about DisneySea?

Tokyo Disney Sea captures the beauty of marine life that both kids and adults would appreciate.
Children will adore never-before-seen attractions like the Mermaid Lagoon with rides and snacks inspired by the Little Mermaid franchise. Adults, on the other hand, can explore the Mysterious Island with the thrilling Journey to the Center of the Earth volcano adventure, which is the main centrepiece in place of Cinderella's Castle.
To top off this fun-filled experience for the family, don't miss all the Tokyo DisneySea food options like Gyoza Dogs and Toy Story Mochi!
