If you are a Disney fan, you will love this place! Because this exhibition hall is full of stories and characters from the Disney family, it allows you to learn more about Disney's creations and the protagonists of the stories he created. There are also handwritten manuscripts, so it is well worth visiting!

Pick up and drop off was at very convinient locations. Guide was really informative and made the ride there fun. Really enjoyed Muir Woods and wouldn’t have been able to get there without joining a tour as there’s no signal there to get out.

There was a detailed explanation of the Walt family's history, which was easy to understand. Even if you don't understand English, you can understand by watching the video. There is also a detailed explanation of the characters' backgrounds, and there is a video, so I think even families with small children can enjoy it. The surrounding scenery is also wonderful, so it's a recommended place.

There is a tropical rainforest with many special animals and plants. Butterflies fly right in front of you. It is a museum integrating science and natural science. It is worth visiting.
