This is not some overly commercial Disney entity. Instead, it is a museum hosting heartfelt Disney family keepsakes, old technology and original old Mickey Mouse and other Disney character sketches. It is the only such Disney Museum in the world. Word is that Walts daughter Diane insisted that the museum be built in San Francisco.It is one of my favorite San Francisco museums. For context, I am a longtime game and virtual reality developer, and I find the various exhibits here to be inspiring. I visit the museum every two months or so.

We went early during the weeks, no one was there!!! We got to spend as much time as we wanted taking as many pictures as we wanted. The workers are sooo nice!!! They stopped by here and there and showed us how to take the pictures and even took pictures for us. The upside down house is awesome too but it was hard to get ideas on how to take pictures. Before you go, look at other customers pictures to get ideas. Well definitely be back!

This museum is a hidden gem. It portrays the history of the founding and success of the Walt Disney Corporation in phenomenal detail and with some amazing artifacts. The volunteers at the museum are also impressive with there knowledge and helpfulness. I will say that this is much more of a museum for adults than kids.

This is a must visit for any Disney fan. You get to learn so much about Walt Disney and the origins of what we know as the Disney company today. You can spend an entire day here and marvel at all the amazing facts and displays available. Currently there is a Mickey and the World special exhibit, which is great, but not as large as youd expect and located in another ancillary building. The museum also includes a nice cafe and gift shop. Parking is fairly easy, but you still have to pay.

This organization constantly plots how they can make members and visitors pay more for less. Not to mention they just laid off their entire front-of-house staff so they could hire part-time, low wage workers with no benefits. The current coordinator and lead sold out their entire team and now oversee a toxic work/visitor service culture thats been prevalent for so many years. The old staff was the only reason to continue visiting this place. Totally unethical.

Definitely a place for Disney fans. So much history to look at and read through. Nice relaxing location. Take your time going through. Nice nearby places to eat. Lovely front lawn to sit outside for a picnic or to run around. Parking is plentiful and inexpensive.

It was really windy so it was hard to take pictures...but it was super beautiful. We went during the day time so it was kind of a bummer that the lights werent on. Next time we got, we are definitely coming during the next time. We wanted to stand on the lights but the security officer said no...

Lovely museum and very educational. There is a ton of information about Walt Disney’s childhood and life, much of which is not related to cartoon or movie making. If you’re a fan of him as a person or are those people who enjoy reading about famous people’s private lives this is for you. I find the sections about his movies a little boring at times. Not a museum for kids, that’s for sure.

Great place for artists and creators to visit. Shows a lot about the evolution of Disney & helps us understand how the company thrives through so many generations. The museum also has lots of interactive pieces that kids would really enjoy.Visited the Mickey Mouse special exhibit and it was really touching. It was really touching for me to see the evolution of Mickey over the years and how it has been pivotal to growth of Disney as a whole.

This place is so much deeper than I thought. You can take as much or as little as you want from here. I went with my 8 year old and she loved every room. There is so much family history, general history, connections and information! Its hard to take it all in - you really need to spend a few hours here. There are some wonderful interactive things and although its not specifically a museum for children, they have designed it in such a way that children are able to absorb a lot of the history and movie making process.

Just about the most awesome Disney museum not owned by the Disney company ;)There is so much information here. Physical displays, models, visual guides. So much history.Especially since disney(land) changes so much its important to know whats changed. All those old rides and attractions. Even this AMAZING full on model of Disneyland. Definitely for the disneyphile

This place is AMAZING. If you love Disney its a must see. I would say its not meant for kids, more adult oriented. They tell you itll take about an hour and half to get through, I was there for three hours and probably could have spent more time. There is so much history, lots to read and fun stuff to interact with.Its a great journey through Walts life and by the end I nearly cried...no joke. They also have a Cafe that serves coffee and food and some adorable Disney inspired pastries. Yum! Come spend the day, have lunch and check out the gift shop! If youre lucky the volunteer named Mark will be there, hes wonderful!!

Awesome place to learn about Walt Disney, even though its not Disney World. I enjoyed the gallery, the art and the history. I will definatley return.

Hire a docent! I don’t recall how much they charge but Kate did a phenomenal job on our tour. I think it you may enjoy the museum if you understand it is about Walt Disney’s life, not necessarily about Disney itself. However, clearly lots of the Disney story is told and was great to hear the many successes and failures you may not know or remember.

If youre at all a fan of Disney (parks/movies etc..) this is well worth a visit. We took our kids whom enjoyed it, but made us go through a bit faster than I would have wanted. It was still 2-3 hours well spent.

Absolutely love coming here! It’s amazing to learn how Disneyland got started, and the process and journey Walt Disney had to go through to be a success. I’m grateful to their family for sharing all of his memorabilia and trinkets so I can share it with mine. I was able to snag some post cards, 2 for a dollar and a cute Peter Pan book for $7.You will have to pay for parking, $2.50 per hour. Which is not bad at all! I would highly recommend bringing a picnic blanket and food to eat when you finish the museum. The view of the Golden Gate Bridge will make you want to stay there forever.

Its a great little museum. Youll be out in just a few hours. Its a touching tribute to Walts life. The best part for me is the original Disneyland model... including a bunch of attractions that are long gone. We also did the side museum which is mostly Disney-inspired artwork. The cafe is overpriced, and food hastily made.Pro Tip: Book your museum tour for first thing in the morning. You can get street parking right in front of the museum that way!

Amazing place to visit if you’re a Disney fan. Tons and tons of information and highly knowledgeable staff. Beautiful modern museum with very well presented exhibits. A nice balance of reading and technology. Some interactive items for children, but not it’s strength. Great location in the Presidio with beautiful landscapes and views.

I could spend all day in this museum, as Im sure any Disney fan could. There is so much history here, from oscars to the original Disneyland diorama, it is hard to pick a favorite. Every part of the museum is a living treasure, and on my list of must-dos in SF

I’ve been here twice and will go back again. I love the history and how much there is to see. You could spend all day here if you wanted. Great park, plenty of parking. Beautiful views of the water and bridge.

Great place to visit in the presidio, if you are like me a Disney freak you will enjoy this museum, very interesting exhibitions

Good place to spend one or two hours (depending on how fast you read) to learn about Walt’s history.Memorabilia, replicas, small video clips and interactive exhibits there. More suited to older children.Cafe and souvenir shop at the end of the walk.

Nice little museum, some rare items and a good look at Walt growing up, worth a trip.

My best suggestion is try to get to the second floor as quick as possible. First floor is basic history of Walts family which is interesting but can tire you out to the point you dont fully enjoy the end of the museum. All the fun history is upstairs!

Ive grow up going to Disneyland and in fact, after high school, I moved to Orlando and worked at Walt Disney World even. When I came back to the Bay Area, I began teaching history and was asked to teach a Disney History class. This museum was our perfect field trip location. It walks through the life and trials of Walt Disney, you see his innovations, failures, highlights, struggles, family and friends who helped him along the way, and so much more. It covers his life from birth to death, Oswald to Mickey, trains in his backyard to Disneyland.I have gone there more than five or six times, I go back again because theres always more to see, more to do, and new exhibits they bring in from time to time. Its a blast to take young and old there, though it is a lot of reading so maybe wait until your children have the attention span for that. I took middle schoolers and they loved it. My favorite exhibit there is the Disneyland model thats designed to be the ideal park (no backstage or extra buildings) of Walts dreams. Its beautifully lit and painted. Lots of fun. Plus the museum docent who stands near it often had fun trivia to sweeten the moment of wonder.Highly recommend checking it out. Do recommend bringing your own food though as it is expensive for not much in the museum cafe. Maybe pick up something from the city and then picnic before or after going in. Beautiful grassy areas with chairs overlooking the S.F. Bay right out front.

Loved the Museum and it is worth it to go the Mickey Mouse Museum. The cafe however was not worth it. We got an Arnold Palmer and it was not drinkable. Also we shared a a grilled cheese and it had tomato on it the looked like it was regurgitated into our sandwich. When in the Museum take your time and you will find some really beautiful things.

This is a fun place to visit if you are a Disney fan. They have many family photos and personal objects that show Disney as a family man and not just the corporate image you typically hear about. His life story is told in a linear fashion starting with info about his father and grandparents and works its way through his start in animation and eventual building of a theme park. Many of the old letters and documents in the exhibits were replicas, which I found disappointing. But they did have several authentic pieces like Walts academy awards. Overall, I enjoyed how well the museum tells the story of this iconic figures life.Admission for adults is $25 which felt steep given that I saw all of the exhibits in about 90 minutes. Younger children might like the cartoons that play throughout the museum and there are a handful of interactive elements. But parents be warned, this museum is best suited for adults or older children who want to learn some interesting facts about Walts life.While you are here, dont miss the great views of Alcatraz and the golden gate bridge. The second floor of the museum has a great spot for a bridge photo as well.

I am a big Disney fan and this just hit the spot. You could spend all day in there just reading and watching everything. The gift shop also has some great options. It was an overall fun time. Definitely worth going just to check out the Disneyland original replica.

Walt Disney Family MuseumWe visited last month, this museum is fabulous. The staff was very helpful and the exhibits were great! I highly recommend taking a few hours to check out this museum.

A wonderful encapsulation of a brilliant man and his family. I enjoyed the lesser known early years of animation. Also the end of his life.

It was a great tour. Worth buying the GO PASS and using it here. There was really interesting things we didnt know about Walt, but there was a lot we did if you seen the movie about him. I recommend self guided tour. The goddess tour rushed through and you didnt get to see much without lagging behind and then that just defeats the entire thing. Lol coffee shop and store at the end of tour. Really awesome lounge area outside. Definitely check this one out.

I have been wanting to visit this museum for a long time and it is actually better than I anticipated. Seeing the Academy Award trophy with the large Oscar and seven smaller oscars was awesome. The whole museum is wheelchair friendly and easy to walk around for all ages. There are lifts and ramps to get you up and down each level and you are free to take as many photos as you like. The cafe which is in the foyer has a a nice range of food available. You can purchase sandwiches, salads, soups; coffee and drinks. They even had very cute and delicious Mickey Mouse shaped macaroons. The gift store is located in the foyer and has a beautiful arrange of books, pins, mugs, shirts, hoodies and so much more exclusive products you can only purchase at the museum.#letsguide #wheelchairaccessible #audiomenu #stepfree #museum #disney #cafe #gifts

This place was so amazing, the vast history behind Walt Disney and his vision is breathtaking. And inspiration to all those who feel they can change the world with their ideas.

The Walt Disney Family MuseumA cute museum talking about Walt Disney, a genius of all time, this museum will tell you everything about Walt Disney and his family, the journey of him to build Disney Empire. Don’t miss the model of Disneyland it is really cool.

Super cute museum in the Presidio that is a must-visit for Disney fans! The museum is two floors high and quite wide across. There are elevators and ramps so the museum is handicap and kid-friendly. Due to the location, one part of the museum has a stunning view of the Golden Gate Bridge.The museum has a good mix between art pieces and interactive pieces. I loved that the museum is set up in a sequential timeline of Walt Disneys life. The rooms are set up so you follow one path to understand Walts ambitions and dedication to his business. Dont want to ruin the experience, but I will say my friends and I had all sorts of feels leaving the museum.

Don’t know that I’d pay the admission price again, but this was definitely a fantastic visit! I learned so much about animation and film beyond Walt Disney and I was really in awe by their collection of artifacts. The way finding was also quite easy, and it packs in more than expected! Gorgeous views of the bridge too.

Awesome museum if you want to learn about the origin of Disney and animation in America.

Interesting but crowded, and like everything Disney, it costs TWICE as much as it should. Should a Disney promotional tool cost more than the worlds best museums?

Full disclosure I am a Disney nut, and to be honest, I dont know why youd go here unless you are. The design of the museum and exhibitions is on a level that matches anything Ive seen in a Disney park and the memorabilia is just stunning. The exhibition brought a tear to my eyes a couple of times, partly due to nostalgia and partly due to the sheet beauty and craftsmanship of some of original artwork. I would classify this as not to be missed, but I dont think young children will get much out of it and you need to have a solid interest in the Disney story otherwise youre wasting your time.

Very wonderful exhibits. Great collections.

Great museum that really immerses you into the Disney family. Be prepared to spend 3-4 hours if you want to see everything! Very cool place!

Good place for Disney enthusiasts. Not recommended for very small children . Lots of people and very little space and plenty of things to read so my small ones got bored. I wanted to stay there forever though .

It was pretty good. I dont know what i was expecting but it was very informative. Lots of great pictures and details about his life. Most of it i already knew from reading books about Walt Disney or movies. The toys, statues, and all the little trinkets were great.I like to collect ornaments from places i have visited but they didnt have any that says family museum in them. Employees were friendly.We paid to see the Awaking Beauty: The Art of Eyvind Earle exhibit. I think that was my favorite part. The details and the imagination that it takes to come up with that artwork.... Amazing ! I want his work in my house.

Very informative museum about the history and development of Walt Disney! I like the gallery of snow white, you can see a lot of sketches and how they built the characters. The grass field outside is also amazing, adults and kids can enjoy the time here.

So wonderful!This museum has been on my list for ever, and I am so glad we finally got to visit. The entire display is overwhelming and so inspiring. We spent hours walking through the museum and we still didnt get to read/take it all in. Seeing all of Walts oscars was so amazing, and going into the rich history of Mickey & Oswald made me smile. He was an incredible man and this homage to him is just wonderful. I cant wait to go back!

Beautiful view. A refreshing place to be at. Good restaurants around, and good view points to take photos from

A place every Disney fan should visit. Located in the Presidio which is walking distance from the Golden Gate Bridge the museum is an enjoyable place to spend several hours. The museum tells the story of the life of Walt Disney from his simple beginnings to his most unlikely of successes.Like his life the exhibits start simple and grow in complexity as you follow the chronology of his life. Even the path through the museum winds more and more until reaching an amazing symphony of sight and sound culminating with some of his most well known accomplishments.The dazzling displays become almost overwhelming and you feel like you are part of the excitement in a room filled with an array of products from Walt’s vivid imagination. Then everything suddenly stops. The walkway narrows. Walt Disney has died.It would be difficult to leave without a teardrop in your eye and an understanding of what Walt Disney’s Legacy is. An emotional experience.The museum tells a wonderful story of a man who dared to dream bigger than anyone and had the courage and persistence to make those dreams a reality.

This museum is incredible! There is so much history about Walt Disney and the family and the magic! I enjoyed every minute of this museum! Its alittle pricey but its Disney, so I wasnt surprised. If you love disney, I would definitely recommend stopping in!

This place is worth a visit if you are a big fan of Walt Disney. Learn more about History of Walt Disney brand, Walt and his family. I grew up watching his company animation so its a really meaningful to know more about the background. But the ticket is quite expensive thou.

Ive enjoyed this place very much. Not only it gives the opportunity to pry into the backstage of several Disney classics, but also it offers a unique glance at the story of a man who gave shape to a great dream.

Great place for Disney fans to learn a little more. Special exhibits are always great and worth the extra ticket to go explore.Open green in the front of the museum is a great place to have a picnic and let the little ones run around.Parking is ample.

A wonderful Museum that takes you through the entire life of Walt Disney. There are multiple artifacts and displays including a large replica of Disneyland Walts Train The Lily Bell is also on display. If you take the time to read the material along the way you get a very accurate picture of Walts life and his major accomplishments. I found at the end I was much more knowledgeable about Disney and what he did to become such a cultural icon in our country. Excellent job did the Disney and imagineering folks who put this together.

Great little museum about Walt Disney, the man behind it all. Lots of interesting facts and artifacts. Love the volunteer that explained everything to me as I went along the rooms. A great experience!

We enjoy this museum so much we bought a membership. This is about Walts life, his challenges is creating and running Disney Studios. It also shows some of the industry changes and innovations he was responsible for.

A surprisingly good museum which talks more about the history of the Walt Disney and shows some interesting artifacts from history. Highly recommend the Mickey special exhibit if it is still there when you visit. Cheaper if you are a college student so bring your student IDs.

Awesome concept. We loved learning about Walt’s life and the stories behind our favorite movies. So much history and astounding talent showcased at this museum!

The museum is way bigger than it appears. The entry fees are really high IMO. (Should have some roller coasters at that price!) It is definitely a museum on Walt and if thats what you want to see then this is your place. Totally enjoyed the miniature Disneyland and the Still Motion Movie activity. Not a lot to eat in this area. Car break-in so leave valuables at home.

A great place to learn about Disney. This well take up your whole day so plan accordingly. I had a lot of fun. The only issue I had was it was really warm inside otherwise great time.

This place is AMAZING. If you love Disney its a must see. I would say its not meant for kids, more adult oriented. They tell you itll take about an hour and half to get through, I was there for three hours and probably could have spent more time. There is so much history, lots to read and fun stuff to interact with.Its a great journey through Walts life and by the end I nearly cried...no joke. They also have a Cafe that serves coffee and food and some adorable Disney inspired pastries. Yum!Come spend the day, have lunch and check out the gift shop! If youre lucky the volunteer named Mark will be there, hes wonderful!!

Loved this place, glad I came. So much history about Disney. Perhaps not suited for younger kids as my 11 year old didnt enjoy it nearly as much as I did. Great view outside the museum. I definitely recommend going to both museums.

Walt Disney Family Museum, that features the life and legacy of Walt Disney. The museum is located in The Presidio of San Francisco, part of the Golden Gate National Recreation Area . The museum retrofitted and expanded three existing historic buildings on the Presidio’s Main Post. The principal building, at 104 Montgomery Street, faces the Parade Ground, and opened on October 1, 2009.

A little piece of history tucked away in San fran. If you are a fan then go. Affordable

Incredible museum - a must-see San Francisco experience! Could have spent an entire day here. So great to learn of the many aspects of the man behind the mouse. Really enjoyed the interactive displays that described details of how animation technology has evolved.

This is a one of the best experiences Ive had in a museum as it tells the story of the man behind Walt Disney Studios and his humble beginnings and hardwork.

This was our 2nd trip to this museum. This time the goal was to see the Mickey Mouse from Walt to the World exhibit at the Diane Disney Miller Exhibit Hall. It was, to say the least, amazing. If youre a Disney fan at all you owe it to yourself to see this showing and it ends later in December so hurry up and get there. We paid to go through the main museum again because there is so much to see its hard to absorb in 1 trip. You can go to the MM exhibit for just $15. and easily spend 1/2 a day.We ate lunch at the little cafe inside and were both very happy with the meal.

We loved the museum. Shows the love, sweat and tears to build this empire.

About 2 hours of work to view in this amazing museum. If you are a fan of early Disney films I’m sure they have at least one piece of work inside. My favorites were the original sketches they have.

I really enjoyed wandering through both the Mickey mouse special exhibit and the main rooms in the other building. I do wonder if the people are trained to be infinitely polite and smiley though... It was worth the time and the cash. The are accessible restrooms and the entire exhibit is accessible with ramps and elevators.

As I am a huge fan of anything Disney, this was a perfect experience for any Disney fan alike. Getting to see a real history of Walt and his family on how he really came about was great. Also seeing real artifacts from not only what Walt had created, also things that were created in the Disney name. Such a perfect location with a small Cafe. Well worth the money we spent. Strongly recommend doing both exhibition and the museum. With taking my time this took roughly about 2.5 hours to complete and I didnt read or look at every little detail. Amazing work all around a great experience for family or some that are just Disney fans. ;)

Great experience. Loved all the info about Walt through his life. It was amazing just to see all the Oscars he won in real life. Well worth a trip for Disney fans. An amazing experience. Very glad I went here.

Amazing! We spent almost over two hours just for the main exhibition!

This is a great place for adults or anyone interested in animation. This is not a place for small children simply because they like cartoon characters. This museum is about Walt Disney and his life and skills. It is an excellent exhibit.

If you are a fan of Disney this place is a MUST! Give yourself a couple hours a least. So much great stuff to see and interact with, we could have spent the day there.

Growing up with all things Disney this museum was an amazing behind the scenes into walts life. Very beautiful photos and exhibits. Very breathtaking and emotional for someone who loves all things Disney.

A must see if in SF! Its so informative and wonderfully put together. You can easily spend hours there! But it didnt feel like it because its so full of Disney info and magic! Theres a lovely coffee shop inside and super cute gift shop as well. Im so glad we toured!

Un vero amante dell”opera di Walt Disney non può,trovandosi a Frisco,non dedicare un po’ di tempo alla visita di questo museo.The Walt Disney Family Museum (WDFM) is an museum that features the life and legacy of Walt Disney. The museum is located in The Presidio of San Francisco, part of the Golden Gate National Recreation Area in San Francisco. The principal building, at 104 Montgomery Street, faces the Parade Ground, and opened on October 1, 2009.The Walt Disney Family Museum is a 501(c)3 non-profit organization that was formally owned, operated and funded by the Walt Disney Family Foundation, a non-profit organization established by Disneys heirs including Diane Disney Miller, Disneys daughter and founder of the museum). It is not formally associated with The Walt Disney Company, the media and entertainment enterprise.(wikipedia)

This is one of the great place Ive ever been to. As I can remember now, this is the place where my dad used to take me on a vacation time when I was a little kid. Especially when we go for a Cali road trip. Ive many memories with this place and I felt great to go again after a long time but this time without my dad and heavy heart. Definitely a great place if you are in SF tour.

Delightful experience- Great food/view too! I did notice that while san Fransico is such a crowded and general chaotic place, you can settle down at this little peaceful area to sort of get away while still in SanFran. Just found that interesting.

A must see museum for any Disney fan in a beautiful historic location. As with any Disney venue, prices are steep but worth the price. You could easily spend an entire day looking at all of the artifacts and exhibits. The deli offers excellent food as well.

Love! Just wish I had more time to spend. Lots of interactive exhibits and wonderful history I never knew.

For a Disney lover.. awesome!Heres the thing, every part of the museum was great MINUS the children running rampant. If youre going to bring them, WATCH AND DIRECT THEM... there is far too much to read and watch without children ruining it.Devote quite some time to traversing the museum because its 4x bigger than you expect it to be when walking up. The special exhibit was fantastic as well!I recommend finding a way to purchase tickets prior to entry. We got ours through a credit card perk and spent 1/2 of what they were at the door.

Great place, but no warnings about flash pictures until they come tell you in person. No discount for coming at the end of the day. Other than that, the history is amazing!

If you want to learn more about Disney and his life, a must go place..... So much information

Between Walts story, the story of Disney films, the story of the technical work that went into the films, and then the story of Disneyland, this place is awesome. Then there are also the adult and kid courses in animation, and the reviews of classic Disney films in the theatre. San Francisco is so lucky to have this.

An awesome place for any Disney fan. Great to see how Walt started out and everything he created throughout his life.

This is a museum about Walt from his humble beginnings through the ups and downs of his creative endeavors. It’s well done and in typical Disney style, it’s clean, organized and the buttons and interactive displays actually work! It takes 2-3 hours without the special exhibits or film and it’s costly (also typical Disney), but if you are a Disney fan, it’s worth it for the back stories on so much of what Walt accomplished. Don’t be surprised when, at the end of the tour, you land at (wait for it...), the gift shop. Can anyone say “Disney experience!”

Cool experience. Plenty of parking during the weekday visit

Not only great content but the presentation and interactive exhibits were wonderful. Best museum experience Ive had!

Always a great experience. If you are a Disney, animation, or early film enthusiast this is a must stop.

Learn about the man behind the mouse and the giant mega corporation that owns your hopes and dreams! See the American that lived the Hollywood dream and see the lessons he learned from his multiple blunders.

I came here for just the gift shop after my visit to the Golden Gate Bridge. It was about a half hour walk from the bridge to the museum but felt short as there was beautiful scenery to see.The museum gift shop had lots to see as well including artwork, Disney awards over the years, and a cafe to chill at. The whole facility was very clean and modern looking.As for the gift shop itself, there were lots of souvenirs, books, and historical related products to buy. If you decide to go to the actual museum, I believe it is about $35.00 for admission.

This place told the entire life story of Walt Disney along with some of his awards and models of his world famous parks. The one thing that truly blew me away was the view right next to the building. I did not edit this photo and I took it on your average Joe phone but it looks spectacular. I would go back for the view!

One of the best, most engaging museums I have ever been to!

What a great museum full of interesting stories about Walt and his family members. Staff is very friendly, enthusiastic and run occasional talks. Great view of Golden Gate Bridge from one of the glass corridors towards the end of the exhibition.

A real dive into Walt Disneys life, the ups and downs of his creative and personal life. Everything is shown, from his trophies, to his characters design, family pictures, even war propaganda and strike signs. Its very interesting and worth the entry price. Activities for kids, movies extracts, many sitting areas, a Cafe and accessible restrooms. Staff is helpful and very polite. You can get your coat hanged while you visit. A pleasant visit, very well designed and faithful to history.

This place was great to learn about the history and backstory of Walt Disney. It doesnt look big from the outside, but there is a lot to look at. And average walk though 40-1.5 hours. Longer if you want to read everything and take your time. Its a good place to stop while you visit the persidio area.

How surprising to find this excellent museum to Walt Disney and the Disney family in San Francisco. We are Disney devotees and have visited just about all of the entertainment and historical facilities in the Orlando and Anaheim areas, and this was kind of like a final feather in the cap in beautiful Presidio Park. Anyone interested in the lore of Walt Disney and the early days of animation will definitely want to stop here.

Location - 4/5 ( Nice walk )Entrance - 4/5Staff - 3/5 ( The staff is not energetic enough )Museum - 4/5Shop - 2/5 ( Expensive )Restaurant - 1/5 ( Not worth it )- Just the museum is good.- Shop is extremely expensive.

I must admit that I walked in with the expectation that this was not going to be particularly enjoyable but I was very pleasantly surprised! The main exhibit was very well-done with new and modern interpretations of the different exhibits. My kids (4 & 5) thoroughly enjoyed this as well. One negative that Id point out is that the special exhibit was a little bit pricey at $10 for the number of content seen.

This museum is so immersive! It is curated so well, designed to educate and entertain all ages. Plan to spend a couple hours and definitely see the special exhibits!
