This is a beginner’s guide to getting from Narita Airport to Tokyo Disney Resort Parks and Hotels – so that you’re having fun at Tokyo Disney in no time!

For many Tokyo visitors, the first question they have about their Tokyo Disney vacation is…

How do I get from Narita airport to Tokyo Disney Resort?

There are several main transport methods to get from Narita Airports to Tokyo Disney…

Taxis, Ubers and Private Transfers

Taxis and Ubers are readily available but are amongst the most expensive options, as Narita is an hour from Tokyo. Klook pre-booked Private Transfers usually work out to be easier and cheaper.

How can I book a private transfer from Narita Airport to a Tokyo Disney hotel?

Klook private transfers usually work out to be much cheaper than a taxi to the Tokyo Disney area. You’ll have someone waiting to meet you at the airport, help managing your bags and will be driven direct to your hotel in around an hour. It’s much easier than trying to buy tickets, navigate public transport and juggle bags, prams and children along the way. Private Transfers are the fastest and easiest option to get you to your hotel and out sight-seeing or to the Disney parks.

Can I send my bags from the airport to my Tokyo hotel?

Yes. If you would like to send your luggage directly to your Tokyo Disney area hotel from the airport you can pay for your luggage to be transported directly from the airport to your Tokyo or Tokyo Disney Hotel without you, freeing you up to head off into Tokyo and sight-see.
