Adventure Travel From... Disney?


Ok, so I finally figured a way to get my kid sister to join me on my next adventure travel experience. I'll just book it through the Disney Adventures site. It seems the House the Mouse Built has decided that it's time to jump into the adventure travel game, and they're now booking guided excursions to such places as Coast Rica, Peru, Australia, and many more, including some right here in the States.

Some of the options for their adventure vacations include visiting the ruins of Machu Picchu (by train of course, no Inca Trail here), cultural excursions to China and Shanghai, or spending the night in an actual castle in the Irish countryside. Closer to home, you can raft the Colorado River in Moab, Utah, visit the Grand Canyon, or take a trip to the Grand Tetons of Wyoming, Disney style. Which is to say, you'll probably be paying way too much money and be obligated to wear Mickey Ears where ever you go.

The Adventures By Disney website has all the info you need, including an Ask The Adventure Guide section for all of your questions, an explanation of the Disney Difference, and of course it wouldn't be Disney without the Disney Adventure Store.

All joking aside, I have to admit that I love visiting Disney World. The place is a complete blast and really is a lot of fun for kids of all ages. However, when I think of my next "adventure", Disney is not the company that comes to mind. Still, I'm sure they'll find a willing audience, and I have no doubt that their trips will have a certain magic to them. As for the rest of us, that overland bus trip from London to Sydney that I mentioned earlier is still more our speed. Oh, and if you want to get in on the group discount, you'd better get to the comments section quick! The bus is filling up! ;)

Thanks GoBlog!
