These are very difficult tickets to get, as tickets are only released 1 month prior to the day of your visit. It was very reassuring to have Viator book these tickets for us. The museum is wonderful with lots of rooms inside a purpose built "animated" house. There are exhibits on how the drawing are made-darwn/coloured and inspiration for the films, plus we saw a short movie that isn't played elsewhere.
The Ghibli Museum has been a place my husband and I have wanted to see. We read everywhere saying you must get your tickets 3 months in advance. We had missed that timing by a month. We were two months away from our trip and couldn’t find tickets. However, Viator had them, but there was no guarantee you’d get them. So we took a chance. We ended up getting a confirmation saying we actually had tickets a month later! The Ghibli Museum itself was awesome! The tickets arrive in one persons name, you’ll need that persons passport to get in. Unfortunately there is no photography allowed inside the Museum, but you are allowed to take pictures outside. There were many areas inside we wanted to take pictures, but of course we respected the rules. Ghibli Museum is about how Miyazaki and his team worked, his inspirations, and about all the different animations he had worked on. It’s a location we’d highly recommend doing and it’s a 20 minute walk from the train station or you can take a bus. But the scenery was very charming during our walk. It’s child friendly and focused on children and the magic of animation, but there are lots of areas that keep the adults interested in as well.
The Studio Ghibli tour was a particular interesting experience. It brought back fond memories of such Hayao Miyazaki’s Japanese animation as Totoro, Spirited Away, Laputa, Howl’s Moving Castle, etc. Makes me want to watch all these films again.
