I recently noticed that when searching using google, I often land on a page with text highlighted. I can see it in Wikipedia, as well as Fandom wiki:
However, when I link web-address from the second screenshot, I don't receive highlighted effect.
What feature is that? Is there a way I can send link to someone that would also lend them on a page with highlighting?
Why not just simply link it using html sending them to the page. It's not really the built in way but, it works.
When you are on the results page, scroll down to the footer (hit the End key) and click Switch to basic version. You have to do that fast, or the script will add new images and move the footer away.
You get a simple version now with a rather clean link. You can switch back with the same procedure and you will still have the same short link.
With your example, this would be:
https://www.google.com/search?q=Tokyo+Disneyland+Rides&um=1&safe=active&hl=en&biw=1253&bih=789&tbm=isch
The URLs don’t stay that short when you search again from that page. To get short URLs back you have to switch again.

This is a test by Google.

As for sharing what you see (the highlights), it's not possible with a simple link. You need to enable the feature.
