Well, hello there, Lisa, and a great big magical welcome to planDisney! I’m so thrilled you've brought your Disneyland Resort question to us. It sounds like you're dreaming of the
"A Story of Celebration: 70th Anniversary Guided Tour", and who wouldn't be with a name that promises such a wonderful journey through history?!
Your question about Walt Disney’s apartment is one that resonates with so many of us who feel that special pull towards the heart of
Main Street, U.S.A. That little lamp in the window is more than just a light; it’s a symbol of where the magic began. While this particular tour through Disneyland's festive history is sure to be filled with unique stories and celebratory moments, a visit to Walt's apartment is not included as a stop on its magical map. And I truly understand if that news is a bit of a bummer—that glimpse into where so many dreams were dreamt is a cherished wish many of us hold dear.
While a peek into Walt's apartment might be a wish for another day, the "A Story of Celebration" tour sounds like it’s going to be its own kind of wonderful! Imagine a journey dedicated to 70 years of jubilees, grand celebrations, and unforgettable Disneyland moments. It’s like diving into a collection of sparkling memories and tales of how the Happiest Place on Earth has marked its milestones. This tour is all about the story of those celebrations, and I bet it’ll be brimming with fascinating history and exclusive insights into this incredible 70-year legacy!
For other wonderful ways to feel that heartwarming connection to Walt's spirit and the rich history of Disneyland, you simply can't beat a grand circle tour on the
Disneyland Railroad! You see, Walt's affection for trains was far more than a fleeting interest; it was a profound passion that steamed right into the very heart of Disneyland's creation—he even had his own miniature railroad, the Carolwood Pacific, delighting friends and family in his own backyard! So, when you hear that iconic whistle blow and feel the gentle rhythm of the train on the tracks, know that you're sharing in an experience that was incredibly dear to Walt himself. It’s a beautiful way to journey through one of his most cherished dreams and see the park unfold from a perspective he meticulously planned and absolutely adored. So, while you may not be stepping into his apartment on this particular tour, riding those rails offers a truly special way to connect with Walt's legacy and his boundless imagination.
Lastly, Lisa, your visit is timed for an incredibly special occasion—the Disneyland Resort 70th Celebration! The entire resort will be dressed in its celebratory best, with unique entertainment, festive treats, and an atmosphere that’s simply buzzing with historic magic. You’re going to be part of a once-in-a-lifetime event! (Please enjoy a special
70th Celebration Churro for me!). And, of course, be sure to keep an eye on the
Disneyland app and website for the latest
guided tour offerings as your visit gets closer—new magical experiences are always on the horizon!
I truly hope this helps you plan, Lisa! May your visit be filled with wonder, joy, and all the enchanting celebrations you can imagine. Wishing you an absolutely magical time!
