Why book an Adventures by Disney vacation

Other Disney Vacations

When most people thing of a Disney vacation they immediately think of visiting the theme parks - either Walt Disney World in Florida or Disneyland in California. While these are absolutely fun and popular Disney vacations, they are not the only Disney Destinations you can visit. You’ve maybe read about our experience at Disney’s Hilton Head Resort, Aulani a Disney Resort & Spa, or the Disney Cruise Line, but how familiar are you with Adventures by Disney?

Adventures by Disney has the highest satisfaction rate and most repeat clients of any other Disney Destination.

That is a pretty incredible statistic considering how many people visit Disneyland and Walt Disney World on a regular basis (myself included!) Why does this have such a dedicated clientele? It comes down to Disney’s world renowned customer service, a mostly all-inclusive experience, immersive storytelling and cultural experiences, and a stress-free vacation experience.

If you’re still wondering why you should book an Adventures by Disney vacation, let’s take a closer look at each of these aspects.

Incredible customer service

After any Adventures by Disney vacation, while the sites and destinations are amazing, one thing always stands out in their memories — the Adventure Guides. These individuals are highly trained and there to take care of every detail while you’re on vacation. They have mastered the Disney art of storytelling, guide you through the cultural experiences of your destinations, and have recommendations for things to do when you’re not partaking in the scheduled activities.

Immersive cultural experiences

All of the activities that are scheduled in your Adventures by Disney itinerary are inclusive of the booking price. These also aren’t your typical museum, tours, or dining experiences. They come with the extra touch of Disney magic to help you really understand and appreciate the destinations and cultures you’re visiting. For example, you can make pasta in Italy, take a Tai-Chi class in Vietnam, or visit Walt’s apartment at Disneyland Resort. Disney places you right in the heart of these iconic landmarks and their stories.

Stress-free vacation planning

How many times have you talked to someone that traveled internationally and spend hours, months, even years researching and planning every detail of their trip? From the activities and icons to visit, to how to get there and where to stay, Disney has taken all that stress off your plate, giving you a worry-free memorable experience.

It starts with working with a travel agent specializing in Disney Destinations. We assist with helping you select the right itinerary for you. Are you looking for something the kids will enjoy too or would you prefer an Adults-only itinerary? Are you interested in the deserts of Egypt or the vast icebergs in the arctic? We can help you narrow it down and find the best vacation experience for you. We wait on hold if needed, book the vacation package, communicate any requests or preferences, and ensure that you’re taken care of with Adventures by Disney.

Fast forward to the vacation, from the moment you land at the airport, you’re in the very capable and magical hands of highly trained Disney Adventure Guides. From transfers to meals, accommodations and more, everything is already arranged and you haven’t needed to lift a finger.

What’s included when you book an Adventures by Disney vacation?

All of the activities in your itinerary from the price of admission to attractions and performances to scheduled meals are inclusive of the price. You also receive any transportation needed within your adventure - it may be by tuk tuk, high-speed train, or private catamaran — but you’ll get there with ease. It also includes your lodging in each location with outstanding accommodations.

If you would like to extend your adventure you may choose to do so at an additional fee. For example, some people prefer to fly in the day before and stay the night at a nearby hotel or extend the France Adventure by Disney trip to include a few nights at Disneyland Paris (yes, we can help you with that too!)

The only things that aren’t included are flights, gratuities for your Adventure Guides, and any discretionary spending (shopping, souvenirs, and your choice of activities during non-scheduled times.)

Where can you travel with Adventures by Disney?

I’m constantly amazed at the locations and itineraries Adventures by Disney continues to add every year. Most recently they added Expedition Cruises to the Galapagos and a new Private Jet to visit all the Disney Parks around the world! Disney also recently debuted their partnership trips with National Geographic which visit incredible places, provided immersive cultural experiences, and a portion of the vacation proceeds go to fund nature conservation efforts.

Adventures by Disney has both land adventures and river cruises with Ama Waterways. These were recognized in 2018 and 2019 as the Editor’s Pick for Best River Cruise for Families. Obviously the pandemic halted things for a couple of years, but now that cruising has returned, the River Cruises are an amazing way to see some incredible locations around the world and decide later where you might want to take a dedicated land adventure to further explore.

They also have some amazing holiday itineraries that visit the Christmas Markets. What a fun and unique gift for the family!

Private Adventures by Disney vacations

Within the last year Adventures by Disney began offering Private Adventures which is a great way to add some customization and intimacy to your trip and ensure your entire group is accommodated as you desire. These still include your Adventure Guides and immersive cultural experiences for up to 12 guests. Multi-generational trips continue to grow in popularity, and as your family grows it can become harder to find an itinerary that has capacity for your entire group. This is one way to get your family together and create a deeper connection with your Adventure Guides and the destination you’re visiting.
