Good to know you're a fellow Canuck. Looking forward to visit Tokyo Disneyresort again around Nov 2023 with my family :) Can you give us insights what food/events they have during that month. Have a great day Merci
We've always gone in Apr/May or Sept/Oct time frame since its nice temps and usually smaller crowds. We just went last Friday to TDS and it was so hot, but we didn't want to miss out going with the attendance so low right now.
8 C/46 F - "A little bit cooler" Me: bundled up like an Eskimo 25 C/77 F - "Really hot" Me: Perfect weather. Not too hot, not too cold. (All jokes aside, thank you for this video! I'm hoping to visit someday. This helps a lot with the planning.)
2023 october-november... here i come. that idea of starting with halloween and ending with christmas is literally the best thing ive ever heard and im definitely doing it 😍🥰
My wife and I are planning to take a trip to Asia in April 2025, specifically to line up with the cherry blossoms. We're going to hit up all four Disney parks (Shanghai, then Hong Kong, then Tokyo & DisneySea), then spend a week in Japan afterwards. We've been planning this trip for years and we're both very much looking forward to going. Thanks for your videos!
Just about everyone I know does not want to go to Tokyo Disney because they say it’s the same thing as the US ones or they’re just not interested in theme parks. I guess I’ll go it alone and experience these parks by myself when I go to Japan! This is exactly one of the things I wanted to know. Very useful information
I love visiting during each of the seasons. Not only to hop on the cute merch shifts, but also to experience the park with the different weather. I love visiting in Spring months, but Winter was just as magical!
Your guide was so helpful when I visited both Disney parks and Universal Studios in Osaka in 2019. I ended up going in the first couple of weeks in November, and on weekdays Wednesday and Thursday. It was really good as I hardly needed to wait over an hour for rides, and the ones that had longer wait times I wasn't too interested in. I'm not used to crowds so it was crowded to me but I can't imagine any more than that! So glad I went at that time. I still watch your videos in anticipation for my next visit in 2023!!
Been to Tokyo Disney in January, April, and October. I loved the cold weather in January! But I also loved October because I got to see everyone dressed up in costume. Unfortunately it was really rainy and a typhoon passed thru Japan. But people STILL dressed to the nines in their costumes. I saw a girl dressed as Belle in her full ballgown in the rain!
Chris (TDR Explorer) is by far the best source for accurate and timely information on all the Asian theme parks. This is a particulary helpful video! Thank you, Chris!
I took my family to the Tokyo Disney Resort in June of 2019. I said, "It will be the rainy season, but with the rain comes less crowds," and they said, "Let's go for it!" We packed umbrellas and raincoats and it did not stop us from having a good time at all. It only rained off and on for about 1/2 the days we were there. I have visited in September for the Halloween event a few times as well. I was planning to go in December in 2020, but sadly had to cancel that trip. I can't wait to visit and see the park during its Christmas Event! OMG! The picture of you on your first visit! You were such a newbie! Very fun to watch! I really enjoyed this video, Chris, Thank you!
We like to visit the Tokyo Disney parks in both early April and late October. We once had a completely rainy day at DisneySea, but loved it since we just nearly all of it inside Mermaid Lagoon, the shops, and the Sinbad’s Storybook Voyage ride all with very low crowds (shortest wait ever for popcorn that day too) 😉
My gf and I just got our tickets for the second week of September 2023! Our first time! We were originally thinking Jan but heard it is extremely cold. Thank you so much for your video. Good to know we picked well. Ended up getting our tickets for 350 each after using our stored up Amex points. Great to know too that Halloween will be starting when we’re there. We can’t wait😭
it's interesting to see that pretty much every recommendation in this video also applies to visiting Disney in Florida. I guess it is a small world after all.
Fantastic video, Chris - very informative! I like that you went through the whole year, detailing pros and cons for each month. Tokyo has definitely gone way up on my bucket list of places I want to visit once I feel comfortable enough traveling again. Thanks for the info you provide!
than you sir for sharing us your knowledge about tokyo Disneyland and disneysea. As long as there are a lot of product souvenirs to buy I don't care how crowded it is. You nailed it. Thank you.
My family and I love you and your videos. They are so helpful, and we love your excitement and passion. Thank you so much for taking the time to post such amazing videos. We live in Canada, and have been to Tokyo Disneyland many times. We can't get enough and looking forward to another visit. Hope to see you in the park!
That month is traditionally a slower time but pre-pandemic there's been student discounts to bring kids there. Hard to say if these discounts will come back next year or not, but I'm sure they will!
Thanks so much Chris for all the info. So interesting to hear a monthly guide. I've always hoped that when I can visit it'd be for Easter season & fascinated to hear that it actually continues into May and June. But as you say avoiding 'golden' week at the end of April & first week into May. So mid May would be a good call for me as the temp sounds good for me too. x
My one and only time visiting was in early June. Super low crowds but very humid and wet like you mentioned. Being from FL though, I was used to it. Great tips!
We mostly end up going in October because that’s when I’m free to travel, I love the costumes and Halloween snacks but I’m more of a Christmas girl so I’d love to go in November/December sometime. I’ve also been in January and March a few years ago and those were both good trips. Tanabata days sounds fun too!
I’ve started saving up for 2023 I’m planning on staying for 2 weeks. Thanks for your videos. Not only are they informative, but they are fun to watch. You’re channel is awesome. ❤️
We visited for a couple days in mid-December and it really wasn’t bad at all! A little crowded in late afternoon, but by then we were basically done anyhow!
I went in June 2019 and we were lucky to only get a bit of rain and pretty manageable crowds! I would love to visit in December though and see the Christmas decorations! 😍
Thank you, Chris! Our plan is to go to Disney last week of October for Halloween, go to universal the next week then return for Christmas the following week. I’m glad you confirmed I had a good plan 😊
I made the mistake of going during Golden Week. Never again. Shoulder to shoulder in the shops, all the fast passes gone in 30 minutes, waits were 4+ hours for the big rides, 2 hour wait just for popcorn. I want to go back again so I can do more than two rides and also Disney Sea, just not during Golden Week, lol.
Last time I visited Tokyo it was August. 32 - 34 degrees every day in that sweltering concrete jungle 😅 never again! I was thinking November would be good next time, and now after this video I'm sold. Cold weather is better for going to the onsen, too!
Great video! I loved seeing all the impressions on what the parks look like during the different seasons. I have read the article on your website many times already for planning/dreaming purposes 🤣. But all the video footage and pictures added a lot of additional info that text can’t convey. Very well done! Our first trip was start of July, we got the end of Tanabata Days and I loved it so much that I am ready to take the gamble on the rainy season again!
I would love to see a video like this for Hong Kong and Shanghai. Here’s a question you probably hate, sorry, do you ever have your guide in a physical book?
We have plans for that but the pandemic pushed those plans back. I don't have a timeframe when we'll do a physical one (or if we will for certain). We're working on the 2022 digital version at the moment. Keep an eye on our website!
I had to cancel this years trip for obvious reasons but I'll be trying again next year in early April if all goes well. This will give me more time to study your ebook. I have last year's edition and I can't recommend it enough! Can't wait for the next one!
Due to the ship's schedule I had to visit a lot during the weekends and it wasn't awful but it was busy. I enjoyed visiting in the winter months, even got to see snow a couple of times. Now I'm looking at May 2023.
I can’t wait to go someday!!! We had an idea to go in 2020 before everything happened, but hope in the next few years we can make it. Your videos are a wealth of information!
Your real name is actually Chris like Chris Kirkpatrick from Nsync as a compliment your name Chris is actually pretty cool and you just revealed your real name to the RUclips public and I felt special actually right now thank you ☺️ Chris aka Tokyo Disneyland explorer for actually doing this to the public that definitely made me very special.
Been there twice, all in July due to business reason (we have something else going on in Nagoya, so might as well go TDL) Had a lot of fun at the 1st visit (Disney Land) ,but not so much on our 2nd trip (DisneySea), one coz the Pirates event was cancelled due to sudden rain , and we waited 3-4 hours for the Journey to the Center of the Earth ride but turns out it was broken! We all got a fast pass to any rides we want but it’s already too late. Love this guide, hopefully we can go there at the month we want and not on business trip!
Just an update, I went September this year 2023 and the weather was just awful being super hot at 30 degrees and super humid and we went towards the 3rd week of September and I’m not sure if there was some holidays ongoing but we went on a Wednesday and Thursday for Disneyland and Disneysea and the lines for the better rides towards the afternoon were like 100 mins.
Considering it's between 4 and 12 degrees here atm so I figure I can handle a trip in January XD Fingers crossed the borders open close to the end of this year!
I really enjoy your videos. Thanks for the information but now there are several trips I want to plan depending on the season and decorations! I think Halloween is going to be the winner.
Hey Chris - love you - you have great content up on RUclips - super helpful - we did get your most recent guide (2020 ?) a couple months ago - IT's really Excellent - it's really hard to find Tokyo Disneyland info here in the States - We were planning a trip to Japan next year - 2022 - but actually changed it to 2023 after watching one of your previous videos - Although we've traveled a good amount in North America and Europe - this would be our first trip to Asia - and Japan specifically. Really excited about it and my husband and I will be traveling with our college age son - who is a Japanophile - and we also love Disney - usually go to Disney World in Fla usually - because we live in the Mid Atlantic of US but have been to Disneyland Paris and are going to Disneyland in CA in August!!! Anyway, long way to ask - we are planning about a 2 week trip in May 2023 (after Golden Week;) want to see Tokyo, Kyoto, Osaka (at least one night for my son for street food etc... thinking that we will probably do a Disney Package (at end of trip) since this will be a big trip - would like to stay at the MiraCosta :) ... feel like giving the Disney part 3 days during out two weeks is getting a good taste but there's also just too much else we want to see in Japan... So as mentioned above I've clearly seen your guide and purchased it -as well as watching many of your videos - but do you also do any consulting on traveling in Japan (outside the theme parks) - because if not you should :) - if not, do you have any body you work with - that you're affiliated with? (I'm not looking for a full out guided tour -maybe some day tours in cities and advice about allocating our time.... OK - I've written you a letter now - sorry about that - but really do love your site and respect the thought you put into your Tokyo Disney Advice as well as the Osaka parks... Final Shout Out - Definitely buy his Guide Book -Totally worth it and so much valuable planning info!!!
Thanks for a great video! I went in April 2014 (before golden week), and it was an amazing time. I had always wondered how the rest of the calendar looked for TDR if I ever got to take my family. Love your videos!
I’ve been to Tokyo Disney twice now, two different years, once in July and once in October and both times journey to the center of the earth and ride & go seek we’re both closed 😭 guess that means I’ll just have to plan another trip!
@@bethrudd3014 oh i see.. that makes sense, and to your point Disney Sea has many charms and many reasons to return. I hope you enjoy your next visit, be well
I was lucky to be there before the golden week started! haha... both spring and winter season is the best! i miss tokyo disneyland... im looking forward to be there again with my family. :P
Because of the TDR Explorer guide, I learned November 3rd is a Holiday. Does that increase the crowds? 🤔 Would have been last year, but, yeah ... I 'm actually looking forward to be going during the interevent period of November 1st - 3rd, as I will be able to experience the park "naked" for a first time visit, giving me the opportunity to experience the park itself. 😊
Hi Chris! Thanks for your sharing your knowledge about tokyo disneyland. Do you know anything about the castle refurbishment? We're thinking of going for first time on a disney vacation package either mid or end November, depending on which is busiest, for christmas celebration, supposedly sunny/dry weather, on a Tuesday to Thursday for lowest crowds possible. If you have any remark about this plan I'd love to hear. Gratefully, Pierre from Vancouver
What are your thoughts on visiting just a few days before the start of Golden Week? Do students skip school to start their holiday early? Just a thought...
Thanks for this video. I’m stuck with kids vacay schedule during summer June-aug or winter dec-Jan. My question is if you have a choice, would you prefer coming late June or come during high peak winter months for New Year season after Christmas?
What month do you want to visit? Let me know!
Get our guidebook -> tdrexplorer.com/books
Good to know you're a fellow Canuck. Looking forward to visit Tokyo Disneyresort again around Nov 2023 with my family :) Can you give us insights what food/events they have during that month. Have a great day Merci

I really want to go for Tanabata Days! I don’t mind the rain.
@@melissacolangelo4168 YES! Exactly my thoughts!
I would love to see you there in October!
I’ll brave the cold for the low crowds!
As Canadians, we know how to bundle up, haha!
8 C/46 F - "A little bit cooler"
Me: bundled up like an Eskimo
25 C/77 F - "Really hot"
Me: Perfect weather. Not too hot, not too cold.
(All jokes aside, thank you for this video! I'm hoping to visit someday. This helps a lot with the planning.)

Did you went at the start in January? I am planning to vist at the 2-3rd of January
It’ll be a few years before we can make it down, but your videos are SO helpful for advance planning and honestly, living vicariously ☺️
Thank you for watching, Diana! I can't wait for you to come!

I love going when it rains because most rides still keep going, but the crowds thin out so much. Like nobody in Japan likes to get wet or something.
Haha, I had to dig up that photo and I'm glad I did. Thank you for watching!

We once had a completely rainy day at DisneySea, but loved it since we just nearly all of it inside Mermaid Lagoon, the shops, and the Sinbad’s Storybook Voyage ride all with very low crowds (shortest wait ever for popcorn that day too) 😉
I can’t wait to visit one day!
Can't wait for you to!
Visiting the week after Golden Week in mid-May was just PERFECT for crowd levels and minimal ride closures.
Haha it usually is! It's picked up (pre-pandemic) in mid-May since the secret got out that was a good time to come.
My gf and I just got our tickets for the second week of September 2023! Our first time! We were originally thinking Jan but heard it is extremely cold. Thank you so much for your video.

Look at those cute food pillows in the background 😻
hahah yup!
Last time we went it was October and luckily avoided typhoons. Perfect weather and
small crowds!
Was it early, mid or late October that you went? I'm thinking of early to mid Oct.
Fantastic video, Chris - very informative! I like that you went through the whole year, detailing pros and cons for each month. Tokyo has definitely gone way up on my bucket list of places I want to visit once I feel comfortable enough traveling again. Thanks for the info you provide!

Thank you for watching! It always makes me smile to see a fellow Canadian in the comments. If you ever see me here at the Parks, please say hi!
Well now I’ll have to go at the end of October to enjoy Halloween and Christmas!!
That's a good time to come and do both seasons!
This is a fantastic video. Did not realize that February has the potential to be a busy month. I might be heading during that time next year!
That month is traditionally a slower time but pre-pandemic there's been student discounts to bring kids there. Hard to say if these discounts will come back next year or not, but I'm sure they will!
This is so helpful! We have been wanting to visit for so long. Fingers crossed Japan opens back up next year so I can make my dream a reality!
I think things should be open by next year, I hope!

That popsicle shirt is one of my absolute favorites. I got one for my mom :D
They released a balloon version but I'm not a huge fan of it. This one is my all time favourite I think!

We visited for a couple days in mid-December and it really wasn’t bad at all! A little crowded in late afternoon, but by then we were basically done anyhow!
That lead up to New Years isn't too bad, so you picked a good time.
This is a big thing for us who hope to travel from Australia some day!
Thank you for watching! Always good to see your comments

Good advice. I've gone in February, early April, late September and mid November on previous trips and overall it worked out well.
Those are all good times! haha.
Thank you, Chris! Our plan is to go to Disney last week of October for Halloween, go to universal the next week then return for Christmas the following week. I’m glad you confirmed I had a good plan 😊
Listen up kids. Very good info on this video.
Hahah, thank you!
The most useful video I have ever watched about Tokyo Disney!(Even after my trip to TDR)🎉
Thanks for your videos. I love hearing about the parks and your videos are part of the reason, I have added a trip there to my bucket list goals.
Thank you for watching, Daniel!

The weather in July of Japan is normal for me since my country is tropical but for August, I agree It's too hot to go.
That heat and humidity in August ... ugh, haha.
This was very helpful. Thank you so much!
Amazing advice! Thank you!!
Love all this info ! Can’t wait to visit Japan !! ♥️😍
I hope you get to visit sometime soon!
Last week of October aka birthday weekenddddd now I’ll definitely look into that
I’m planning to visit end of June 2023!
yay!
This is so helpful! Thank you!
Planning to go there maybe the end of September. 😊
I’ve been to Tokyo Disney twice now, two different years, once in July and once in October and both times journey to the center of the earth and ride & go seek we’re both closed 😭 guess that means I’ll just have to plan another trip!
oh no, I'm sorry! On the plus side, like you said, means you have to come back!
Same journery tocenter of earth was closed in year end 2019 whej i visited
you can check the tokyo disney resort site to what is closed and when.
@@IkePaz I know. It just wasn’t a main factor when I planned either trip. Thanks though!
@@bethrudd3014 oh i see.. that makes sense, and to your point Disney Sea has many charms and many reasons to return.
I hope you enjoy your next visit, be well
As a Canadian, I was confused when you said we don't carry umbrellas xD
Hahah, we definitely don't in Saskatchewan.
Thanks I now have a rough idea of when I want to visit.
I was lucky to be there before the golden week started! haha... both spring and winter season is the best! i miss tokyo disneyland... im looking forward to be there again with my family. :P
I want frozen season back! February is my favourite off time.
That was such a fantastic event and one of the better seasonal events they did.
Very helpfull 🥰 Thank you 😊
This is helpful!
Thankyou so much so helpful
I’ll go whenever you can show me around!
I went during a typhoon in September and the crowds were low, it was so nice! Haha
Because of the TDR Explorer guide, I learned November 3rd is a Holiday. Does that increase the crowds? 🤔
Would have been last year, but, yeah ... I 'm actually looking forward to be going during the interevent period of November 1st - 3rd, as I will be able to experience the park "naked" for a first time visit, giving me the opportunity to experience the park itself. 😊
skip holidays but the merchandise are amazing.
hahah the merch is pretty good
Hi Chris! Thanks for your sharing your knowledge about tokyo disneyland.
Do you know anything about the castle refurbishment? We're thinking of going for first time on a disney vacation package either mid or end November, depending on which is busiest, for christmas celebration, supposedly sunny/dry weather, on a Tuesday to Thursday for lowest crowds possible. If you have any remark about this plan I'd love to hear. Gratefully, Pierre from Vancouver
That SHIRT!!
I didn't even recognize you without the signature beard.
I barely recognize myself haha
What are your thoughts on visiting just a few days before the start of Golden Week? Do students skip school to start their holiday early? Just a thought...
Thanks for this video. I’m stuck with kids vacay schedule during summer June-aug or winter dec-Jan. My question is if you have a choice, would you prefer coming late June or come during high peak winter months for New Year season after Christmas?
