So cool! - Got my tickets from Viator immediately, and was easy to scan in! We got the 4:20pm time slot because it was the only one we could make work. 1 hour was not enough time! Plan for 2 hours minimum, 3 if y I u really like to read and listen to things! This museum had so much more than I thought it would.

A Hidden Gem in the Presidio - As someone who grew up watching Disney movies, this was one of the most interesting museums I’ve ever visited. It has a remarkable collection of items—original drawings, scripts, and personal belongings—and the space is much larger than it looks from the outside. What truly makes it special is how it narrates the technical evolution of animation, from the earliest sketches of Mickey to the vision of Disneyland. It’s an immersive and moving experience that shows the more human side of Walt. It’s definitely worth spending an entire afternoon there.

Day with old friends. - City traffic can be bad so plan for alot of time. Parking can also take some time. Very educational.

Walt and his visions - Give yourself plenty of time to enjoy this museum. Filled with photos, sketches, cartoons, short videos, interviews with Walt, it is a great way to learn about Mr, Disney and his visions. We arrived around 10:30, took a break for a picnic lunch at the beautiful park area there at the Presidio, then finished up with another 2 hours of discovery.

Great Experience - Great experience, and would definitely recommend! Friendly staff and immersive exhibits brought the history of the Disney legacy to life. So many things to see, and very engaging audio and video exhibits.

Highly Recommended - Super interesting. Thanks for doing that! We been there with our grandson. It is our third time there. Always great!

Great Day at the Walt Disney Family Museum - Thoroughly enjoyed seeing all of the history of Walt Disney on these walls. It was a truly unique collection that reveals so much about Walt, his family, and his journey. The artwork alone is enough to keep you occupied for hours. The staff is extremely friendly and helpful. There is also a great museum shop with some unique Disney treasures to take home. Buy tickets in advance and entry is timed.

All About Walt - Great experience if you want to know more about Walt the man and his history. Be sure to schedule at least 2 hours. And you can explore the Presidio too.

Great places to learn about Walt Disney's life - It's a great place to learn about the life of Walt Disney! I thought it was far from the city, but you can get there by bus using a Munipass. The view around the museum is also natural and has a relaxed atmosphere. If you're traveling to San Francisco, you'll want to visit

Good Experience, Not for Kids, Parking is Hard - Longtime Bay Area resident, first time visitor as of yesterday! It had been on my to-do list all summer to check out the special exhibition on Mary Blair, the artist who created It's A Small World's iconic style, with my teenager. It's a project to get there from our house, and finding parking was quite difficult on a busy Saturday. But we made it, and as another reviewer already commented, it does not stand out from the outside. The aesthetics of the Presidio are lovely and uniform and I guess mouse ears was not an option for the facade. lol. The main entrance door is quite discreet. Admission is $25 adults and $15 youth. No need to buy in advance. You can enter the lobby and look around at a free area including seeing all the Disney Oscars! And there are many! They scan your ticket before entering the main galleries, which are chronologically organized, starting with Walt's ancestors. You can certainly move through these pretty quickly if you're not a completist. The exhibits covering the early days of the Disney Studios are honestly pretty fascinating. A lot of Hollywood bigwigs tried to cheat Walt Disney. Who got the last laugh? The galleries follow the growth of the company and the increasing interests and resources of the man, whose daughter spearheaded this museum. At a couple points, it shines through that this a museum with a viewpoint (the Disney family's) versus an objective scholarly presentation but the vast number of items in the collection only could have come from the family archives. The special exhibition area is in the basement, very dark and a little cramped feeling. I would have liked to see a better presentation of Mary Blair's work but I did learn a lot about her background and role with the Disney company. Unfortunately there is not one bit of It's a Small World design in the exhibit or any of her other work still in use in the parks... perhaps some corporate interference? I mean, they use her designs on the cups! The exhibit feels incomplete without this. The shop has some adorable items. The cafe is tiny, no meals, just snacks and a few tables and chairs. This is a very interesting museum even if you're not a Disney adult - if you have been to the parks and watched some movies, you'll get something out of it. NOT A KIDS MUSEUM! Would be very boring for kids, leave under 12s at home. We spent almost 2 hours and could have stayed longer but we were pressed because of the parking limit.
