Get ready Disney fans, it’s time to pack your bags! Adventures by Disney has just unveiled two brand-new European itineraries for 2026, with unforgettable stops in Switzerland and Greece. Discover breathtaking landscapes and ancient wonders that inspired some of Disney’s most beloved films and theme park attractions.
Switzerland
Walt Disney and his wife Lillian enjoyed many summer holidays in Switzerland, where they fell in love with the landscape, its people and the stories from mountain-side villages and lakefront towns. This fondness can be seen through many of Walt’s creations, from films to Disneyland Resort’s Matterhorn Bobsleds attraction.
The 8-day itinerary is full of some of the charming villages and scenery that inspired Walt, along with culinary delights. (Chocolate, wine, and cheese… how can you go wrong?)
Switzerland Highlights include:
- Hitting the trails on an alpine hike with the majestic Matterhorn as the backdrop – the inspiration behind Disneyland Resort’s famed Matterhorn Bobsleds attraction.
- Savoring authentic Swiss delights, including delectable Gruyère cheeses, luscious fondue and specialty chocolates in a Swiss chocolate-making workshop.
- Experiencing a fairytale setting come to life on a privately guided tour of the dreamy lakeside medieval castle, Château de Chillon.
- Taking in the scenic wonders of the turquoise blue Lake Brienz by kayak and a refreshing dip in its cool water.
- Enjoying a special after-hours event at the Olympic Museum, home of the largest archive of Olympic Games memorabilia in the world, some of which helped inspire Disney Parks’ famed Pin Trading tradition.
Adventures by Disney will offer nine Switzerland departures in 2026; including six family departures and three departures exclusively for adults.
Greece: Mythology of Athens, Peloponnese & Rhodes
Greece is well known for its ancient architecture, cuisine and mythology – celebrating the gods, goddesses and heroic legends who helped to inspire them all. This immersive, 8-day adventure will bring to life the stories and wonders of Greek mythology for guests as they discover the origin of the Greek influences that inspired Disney films – such as Hercules, The Little Mermaid, and Fantasia -with visits to landmark structures, historic sites and beautiful landscapes.
Highlights include:
- Exploring the Acropolis of Athens, a symbol of Greece’s Golden Age and home to the famed Parthenon.
- Journeying through the once-great citadel of Mycenae, the first true Greek civilization and the Epidaurus Theatre – known to be the most perfect Ancient Greek theater.
- Kayaking and snorkeling above an ancient submerged archaeological site in Epidaurus, evoking images of the lost city of Atlantis.
- Enjoying the charming port town of Nafplio, Greece’s first capital and a hallmark of its unique culture.
- Visiting the medieval city of Rhodes and the site of Colossus of Rhodes, where a statue of the Greek sun god Helios once stood – a UNESCO World Heritage Site and one of the seven wonders of the ancient world.
Adventures by Disney will offer 10 departures in 2026 for Greece: Mythology of Athens, Peloponnese & Rhodes, comprised of six family departures and four departures exclusively for adults.
