The Official Walt Disney Studios Walking Tour – Presented by D23: September 2025

Celebrate the 85th anniversary of The Walt Disney Studios lot by stepping into the heart of Disney history with The Official Walt Disney Studios Walking Tour – Presented by D23!

This exclusive series of two-and-a-half-hour walking tours offers D23 Members an opportunity to explore the legendary Studio lot, including:

• A visit to Walt Disney’s historic office suite – preserved as it was during his time.
• A special stop at the Walt Disney Archives – home to decades of Disney treasures.
• A stroll through Legends Plaza – honoring the visionaries who shaped Disney history.
• A Special Saturday Experience – offers a special look at rare Archival assets!

For members joining a Saturday tour, your experience gets even more magical! During a private visit to the Walt Disney Archives, an archivist will present an artifact from Disney’s storied past-brought out exclusively for your tour. These special assets could include original concept art, historic memorabilia, or even items personally connected to Walt Disney himself!

Don’t miss this incredible opportunity to walk in Walt’s footsteps and experience the magic of Disney history…

Join your VIP tour host on a stroll through the original Animation Building, where beloved animated films-including Cinderella, Lady and the Tramp, and The Jungle Book-were created. See the historic soundstages used for filming such Disney live-action movie classics as 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea, Mary Poppins, Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl, and Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2. And explore the beautiful Legends Plaza, which honors those who have made significant contributions to the Disney legacy. Many guests will also recognize exterior spaces on the Studio lot, which have been featured in productions from the Mickey Mouse Club and The Absent-Minded Professor to Saving Mr. Banks, Muppets Most Wanted, and ABC’s black-ish!

Then, explore the rich legacy and historical collections of The Walt Disney Company during a tour of the Walt Disney Archives. To complete this epic experience, take a tour of Walt Disney’s restored 3H office suite, filled with original furnishings, awards, and items from the master showman’s personal collection. Upon exiting the suite, all guests will receive an exclusive gift to commemorate this memorable experience.

Guests will also have the opportunity to shop at the Disney Studio Store and The Walt Disney Company Store to purchase items that are only available on the Studio lot!
