We did the D23 tour and it was fantastic! Our guide Jon was extremely knowledgeable and fun.
Great to get to experience the magic of the Walt Disney Studios as part of the D23 tour! Some fantastic history, loads of fun facts and a must-do for any Disney fan! The highlight being getting to see Walt’s Office! We had a brilliant tour guide Drew who was very knowledgeable and friendly. This really was THE highlight of our California trip and still feeling incredibly lucky to have such an experience and insight.
Did the D23 tour here and cannot say enough good things about it. We had so much fun seeing all the history of the studio lot and all the various production functions. It was very quiet and our guide went above and beyond to ensure we had all of our questions answered.
My sister really wanted to go on the Walt Disney studio tour 🐭 🎥 back in Fall 2022 🍂 . So she purchased the D23 Duo Gold membership 🌟 so she could have a better chance of booking a studio tour once the new dates came out for Nov and Dec.
I like Disney. However, I'm not the kind of person who would willingly shell out a lot of money for a Disney experience. But because she really wanted to tour Disney studios, I went along as her companion.
The entire studio tour lasted about 2 hours. Our guide was really nice and courteous 🙂! But because the studio lot is pretty small, I felt like there wasn't a whole lot to see.
The highlights are mainly Walt Disney's office 🖊 📑 and Pluto's Corner 🐶 🐾 . The employees were setting up props outside for "Beauty and the Beast 🌹" live.
We also got to hold one of the 20+ Oscars that Walt Disney won in his lifetime 😃! A real Oscar 🏆 is pretty heavy 😳! At least for our small hands 🙌!
But other than that, I personally didn't feel like it was worth the money we paid for the tour. Even with D23 membership, there wasn’t a huge discount for the studio tour tickets 🎫 and we still had to pay about $99 per person, which I think is pretty steep for a super simplistic and “no frills” studio tour. For what we actually saw, i felt like it really should have been 1/3 or 1/2 the price we paid. They do hand out collector pins at the end of the tour though ☺️!
I just went on the Warner Bros classic studio tour earlier this month and found it to be SO much better, much more reasonably priced, and a LOT more to see 👀😃! I would recommend saving your money for that studio tour instead 😉!

This was a wonderful treat! As long as I've been a D23 member, I never downloaded the app and knew all the things we can attend! This was the 1st event since the pandemic and it was such a wonderful treat to go to the Walt Disney Studios, walk around, shop, and see the 50th anniversary of Bedknobs and Broomsticks. The Studio spoiled us with the absolute best popcorn I've ever had at a theater and that included the fancy Dasani water bottles. :)
Me and my daughter walked along Mickey Avenue and Dopey Drive where Walt's beautiful children would ride their bikes and enjoy Sunday's when there weren't any employees there. It was just serene. It meant so much to us because they don't give tours at the Studios to the general public, so it surely was special!
The seats were so velvety and comfy and they even rock! All the employees treated us respectfully and gave us individual attention; something that was very important to Walt. I'm happy to see it's still an important aspect to their customer service. If you're not a member of the D23 club, I would invite you to join, and you can even join for free! And, you'll even meet some fellow Disney Peeps!

Pretty good tour offered to Disney elite fans. They take you through several production buildings, but you aren't able to enter any sound stages, which is a bummer. The first highlight of the tour is seeing Walt Disney's office - an incredible, historic location. The second highlight is getting to hold a REAL Oscar that Disney won. It's HEAVY. Pro tip: Grab as many of the free cookies and waters they offer you during the introduction video. They're AMAZING and are the only snacks you'll get.
We visited the property on a tour, what an exceptional experience. Many areas we were unable to take photos as they are a working lot, it was really nice to see where some of our favorite shows are filmed.
My wife and I had the good fortune of being invited to an advance screening of the coming Disney movie Magic Mountain held at a well-appointed theater inside the studio's Frank G. Wells Building in Burbank, California. The movie with a cast headed by Jeffrey Tambor, Gillian Jacobs and Adam Devine is scheduled for nationwide release starting April 6, next year, but the studio bigwigs had the grace to let the family of the stars and anyone connected with the film to have an advance peek of their labor of love. We tagged along with the couple Junice and Toby to give moral support to their daughter, our granddaughter, Bianca Grava (she's Janelle in the movie). It's a well-acted, well-directed clean fun movie. Everyone should see it. Thanks.
