Let’s chat about something that’s been on my mind lately – the incredible experience that is Adventures by Disney. If you’ve been following me for a while, you know I’m passionate about all things Disney, but there’s something extra special about their guided travel experiences that I just can’t not share about anymore.
What Even IS Adventures by Disney?
First, let’s clear something up – Adventures by Disney isn’t theme parks (though some itineraries do include park visits!). It’s Disney’s premium guided travel service that takes you to destinations around the world with that special Disney touch. Think of it as the difference between planning a vacation and having a truly immersive travel experience where literally everything is handled for you.
The Adventure Guide Magic
The absolute heart of the Disney Difference is your Adventure Guides. These aren’t just regular tour guides, just like this isn’t your average guided tour. Each trip comes with two specially trained Disney Adventure Guides who are basically the Mary Poppins of travel – practically perfect in every way.
My friend still talks about the Adventure Guide from her trip to Italy. Not only did she know exactly when to pull out surprise activities for the kids when energy was lagging, but she also managed to get them into areas of museums that were closed to the general public. She knew everyone by name by day two, remembered the children’s food preferences (no small feat, any parent would know), and had this magical way of making every single person feel like they were getting special attention.
VIP Access That Makes You Feel Like Royalty
The key to taking your trip to the next level, though? Adventures by Disney is essentially your “backstage pass” to the world. Remember waiting in long lines and crowded spaces at popular tourist destinations? Yeah, that doesn’t happen on these trips.
Instead, imagine walking past the three-hour line at the Vatican and being escorted through a special entrance. Or having after-hours access to the Terra Cotta Warriors in China when no one else is there. These aren’t just vacations – they’re the kind of experiences most travelers don’t even know are possible.
(a few of the highlights of the British Isles itinerary, one of my very favorites — I think the private viewing of the crown jewels is at the top of my list.)
Family-Friendly Doesn’t Mean Kid-Focused
Here’s something I love explaining to my clients – Adventures by Disney creates experiences that genuinely engage everyone – they’ve somehow mastered the art of keeping multiple generations happy simultaneously.
While the kids are having an adventure-filled pizza making class in Italy, adults might be enjoying a wine tasting. During an afternoon at a beach destination, adults can relax while Adventure Guides lead the kids in themed activities. My personal favorite is when the itinerary offers the adult-only dinner in a spectacular venue while the kids have their own movie night with the Adventure Guides (complete with kid-friendly foods and activities). Top. Tier. Experiences.
Even the accommodations are chosen with both luxury and family-friendliness in mind. We’re talking about stunning properties that also understand what families need.
Worth Every Penny
Let’s have a real talk moment about the investment. Yes, Adventures by Disney costs more than if you pieced together a similar itinerary yourself. But here’s the thing – you absolutely cannot recreate this experience on your own at any price.
The backstage access, the seamless logistics, the culturally immersive activities with local experts, the immediate problem-solving if anything goes off track – these aren’t things you can simply book online. The peace of mind alone of having everything handled while still having flexibility is, as my clients repeatedly tell me, priceless.

The biggest mistake I see families make? Waiting until the kids are “old enough to remember everything.” Trust me when I say that Adventures by Disney is designed for travelers of all ages, and those core memories form no matter how young your littles are!
