Adventures by Disney Reveals Three New Itineraries for 2027: Thailand, Croatia & Slovenia, and a Reimagined Sicily & Amalfi Coast

Adventures by Disney is unveiling its 2027 lineup with two brand-new land itineraries to Thailand and to Croatia & Slovenia, plus a reimagined Italy: Sicily & Amalfi Coast journey. Each multi-day trip is led by dedicated Adventure Guides and packed with hands-on cultural experiences and family activities for Junior Adventurers.

Adventures by Disney is going bigger in 2027, unveiling two brand-new land itineraries — a 10-day journey through Thailand and an eight-day adventure across Croatia and Slovenia — plus a reimagined Italy: Sicily & Amalfi Coast trip that builds on one of the brand's most-loved itineraries.

The 2027 lineup leans into Disney's signature mix of guided storytelling, special access, and effortless logistics, with dedicated Adventure Guides handling every detail and a slate of "Junior Adventurer" activities designed for younger travelers.

What Is Adventures by Disney?

Adventures by Disney is Disney's premium guided-vacation brand, taking small groups to destinations around the world with a level of access and care you'd expect from a Disney experience — minus the parks. Adventure Guides lead the way, narrate the story of each place, and orchestrate hands-on cultural moments along the route, while families focus on actually enjoying the trip.

Each itinerary is built around special access to local sites, cultural workshops, and seamless planning, so guests can spend their time exploring instead of organizing. With that in mind, here's a closer look at what's new for 2027.

Thailand — Vibrant Cities, Cultural Depth, and Tropical Coastlines

The brand-new Thailand adventure stretches across 10 days, weaving together history, spirituality, and natural beauty. Travelers begin in Bangkok, taking in the grandeur of the Grand Palace and visiting the ancient city of Ayutthaya, where centuries-old traditions still shape modern life. A private klong boat ride threads through Bangkok's historic canals for a quieter look at the city's daily rhythms.

From there, the pace softens as guests travel north to Chiang Mai, where hands-on cooking experiences and a visit to a local tea garden tell the story of Thailand's regional flavors and agricultural traditions.

One of the trip's most powerful moments comes at an Asian elephant sanctuary, where guided observation and a canopy walk teach guests about the conservation work behind protecting these animals. It's the kind of experience that's unique to a Disney-curated itinerary — educational, ethical, and emotionally resonant in equal measure.

Croatia & Slovenia — Historic Cities, Living Culture, and Adriatic Coasts

The new eight-day Croatia & Slovenia itinerary takes guests through a region tied together by story, geography, and centuries of tradition. The journey starts in Ljubljana, Slovenia, a small but striking capital framed by mountains and Old World architecture. A guided tour of Ljubljana Castle, complete with costumed storytellers, gives the city's history its full Adventures by Disney treatment.

From the capital, guests travel to Lake Bled, where alpine scenery and sacred traditions meet on the lake's glimmering waters. A traditional pletna boat ferries the group to an island sanctuary that has been revered since the seventh century. A light hike then leads to Velika Planina, a centuries-old herdsmen settlement where a way of life still tied to the land is on full display.

The second half of the journey shifts to Croatia, anchored by Dubrovnik and its famous Adriatic city walls. Guests spend several days exploring Dubrovnik's history and cuisine, with a side trip to the nearby Elaphiti Islands for crystal-clear water and slower island energy.

Italy: Sicily & Amalfi Coast — Iconic Cities, Timeless Culture, and Coastal Beauty

This reimagined eight-day itinerary evolves an existing guest favorite, refreshing the experience with new destinations, updated pacing, and added cultural moments while keeping the soul of the original Sicily trip intact. Adventures by Disney describes a "reimagined" itinerary as one that builds thoughtfully on a guest favorite — new pieces, same heart.

The trip opens in Sicily, where guests explore landscapes shaped by both nature and history. A guided experience on Mount Etna — Europe's tallest and most active volcano — takes travelers across vast lava fields and lava tubes, while a visit to the ancient Greek Teatro Greco in Taormina delivers panoramic views of the Ionian Sea alongside its archaeology.

Sicily's artistic heritage takes the spotlight through a private Sicilian puppet show at a local theater, followed by a hands-on workshop with a master puppeteer. From there, the journey heads to the Amalfi Coast, with stops for a pasta-making class in Gragnano — Italy's pasta capital — and a ceramics workshop in Vietri sul Mare.

Which Adventure Will You Choose?

Whether you're drawn to Thailand's energy and tropical coastlines, the historic crossroads of Croatia and Slovenia, or the timeless landscapes and cuisine of southern Italy, the 2027 Adventures by Disney lineup gives families three very different ways to see the world together. With Adventure Guides, special access, and Junior Adventurer experiences baked into each itinerary, these are trips designed to take the planning weight off and leave room for the actual memories.

What This Means for Disney Fans

Adventures by Disney has always sat in an interesting niche — Disney service and storytelling, no parks, no characters in costume. The 2027 slate doubles down on that identity, with itineraries that feel less like theme park adjacencies and more like premium small-group travel competing with the likes of Tauck or National Geographic Expeditions. For Disney fans who already trust the brand to deliver a frictionless, family-friendly trip, that's exactly the point.
