Creator's Key Takeaways
We are going to do a tour around Walt Disney Studios. We have our guest badges and we are ready to go.
I really enjoyed it. Would we do it again? Probably not. It's a one and done.
Definitely recommend that place. That was a chill and relaxing.
Worth the 3-year wait. Yeah. I'm so surprised it's not fishy.

This episode begins with a once-in-a-lifetime visit inside the famous Walt Disney Studios in Burbank, where we take you behind the gates for a rare look at the heart of Disney history. With our guest badges in hand, we explore the grounds, see Walt’s office, and learn how exclusive this tour really is. From there, we spend the rest of the day exploring Los Angeles — visiting Venice Beach, Santa Monica Pier, and the Route 66 landmark — before paying our respects at Forest Lawn Cemetery, where Walt Disney himself is buried. The journey continues north along the iconic Pacific Coast Highway. We stop at Malibu for coffee and a beach walk, discover the beautiful Spanish charm of Santa Barbara, sample clam chowder in Morro Bay, and visit the elephant seals resting along the coast. After a full day of sights and laughter, we reach Ragged Point Inn — a stunning cliff-top hotel overlooking the ocean — before finishing our drive in San Francisco, exploring Pier 39, watching the sea lions, and ending the night around the fire pit with s’mores. ⇢ PATREON - https://patreon.com/thelodgeguys ⇢ YOUTUBE MEMBERSHIP - https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC8QDV7GIjoe0yIW2EwJ9WJw/join ⇢ INSTAGRAM - https://www.instagram.com/thelodgeguys/ ⇢ FACEBOOK: https://www.facebook.com/thelodgeguys/ ⇢ MEMMO FOR SHOUTOUTS - https://memmo.me/gb/en/profile/the-lodge-guys-leigh-and-nick ⇢ CAMEO FOR SHOUTOUTS - https://www.cameo.com/thelodgeguys ⇢ LODGE GUYS EXTRAS (second channel): https://goo.gl/YvZK3b ⇢ OUR BLOG - http://blog.thelodgeguys.com ⇢ AMAZON STORE FRONT: https://www.amazon.co.uk/shop/thelodgeguys ⇢ LINKTREE: https://linktr.ee/thelodgeguys ⇢ EMAIL: contact@thelodgeguys.com #thelodgeguys #travel
