Adventures by Disney will be setting sail in 2026 on a brand-new river cruise itinerary through southern France that is sure to ignite the senses and create unforgettable memories for every member of the family. This eight-day, curated adventure will begin in Lyon, one of the world’s culinary capitals, and sail through charming towns in the Rhône River Valley to Provence, a picturesque region in the south of France that is rich with cultural, artistic, historical and culinary delights. Along the way, interactive experiences will captivate and inspire as you travel through the charming areas of Tournon, Viviers, Avignon and Arles. If you’re looking for a family friendly trip to awaken your senses while highlighting some of the best southern France has to offer – in the wise words of Lumière – “Be our guest!” “Feel” History Beneath Your Feet Why just think about the Roman Empire when you can touch it? In Avignon, guests can do just that as they embark on a VIP-access climb to the top of the historic Pont du Gard. This ancient Roman aqueduct and UNESCO World Heritage site has stood for nearly 2,000 years and remains one of the best-preserved Roman feats of engineering in the world. And for those who prefer to stay closer to the ground, guests can opt to take in the views of these ancient columns as they kayak along the winding banks of the River Gardon. The Musée du Pont du Gard also provides a ground-level delve into the daily life of the ancient Romans who lived in nearby Nîmes through exhibits of artifacts recovered in the area. Savor the “Flavors” and “Scents” of Southern France It wouldn’t be a true adventure in France without sampling the country’s finest cuisine. From the rich flavors of chocolates and cheeses to freshly baked goods, olive oils and fragrant herbs, food lovers of all ages will be saying, “C’est délicieux!” Adults will have the opportunity to taste local wines from one of the greatest wine-growing regions throughout the river cruise, including samples from Châteauneuf-du-Pape vineyards cultivated at the request of Catholic popes residing in Avignon in the 14th century. Younger foodies can enjoy special samplings and activities curated just for them, too. While in Lyon, these “Junior Adventurers” will have their own guided food tour with storytelling inspired by the world of Disney and Pixar's "Ratatouille. Feast Your Eyes on the Beautiful “Sights” of Provence Have you ever imagined what life would be like in a painting? The Rhône River offers the perfect backdrop to bring that dream to life as it winds through sweeping landscapes with rolling hills, fields of wildflowers, olive groves, and quaint villages – all bursting with vibrant colors. It may be impossible to stop taking photos! It’s no wonder this region has inspired renowned artists like Pablo Picasso and Vincent van Gogh to create hundreds of artworks throughout the 18th and 19th centuries. And perhaps guests will find the inspiration to start painting their own masterpiece after soaking in the scenery in Arles with a visit to St. Paul de Mausole, where van Gogh created more than 250 works of art, and the town of St. Remy, the setting for perhaps his most famous painting “The Starry Night.” “Hear” Sounds and Stories from the Past
Ready to take your travels up a notch? Hop aboard the historic steam-powered Train de l'Ardèche – an exclusive departure for guests traveling with Adventures by Disney – for a journey along the Vivarais Railway. Listen to the high-pitched whistle, the clicking and clacking of the tracks, and the chugging of the train as guests power across arching bridges and take in the natural landscapes of the Doux Gorges. Perhaps the most unique part of traveling with Adventures by Disney is the masterful storytelling and service of Adventure Guides, and the collective knowledge of local guides who come together to bring each destination to life. With so many historical treasures along the Rhône River – some dating back to the prehistoric era – combined with Disney’s signature style of storytelling and one-of-a-kind activities, this trip is sure to offer something for everyone in the family!

Disney Treasure Stateroom Tour1/14/2025 0 Comments Simply Perfect Vacations was invited to sail on the brand new Disney Treasure cruise ship in December 2024 - before it opened officially to guests! We embarked on a three night sailing out of Port Canaveral, the Disney Treasure’s homeport, and really got to experience the ship and what it offers to guests. First up the stateroom! We stayed in stateroom 9146, a Deluxe Family Oceanview Stateroom with Verandah. This Pixar movie “Up” themed stateroom sleeps 5 guests in 284 square feet with one queen bed; a couch that flips into a twin bed; an upper pull down twin bed; and a wall twin bed that pulls down (all by your stateroom attendant while you’re at dinner so you don’t have to worry about it!). It also had the split bathroom that is very convenient for getting ready with a family or even a group of friends! Check out the video below for a tour of this stateroom. We had 4 adults staying in this stateroom and we were very pleased with the space and didn’t feel cramped as we each had our own bed and the split bathroom allowed 2 of us to get ready at once and one at the vanity. There was also plenty of storage from two full length closets with shelving inside one of them with a safe; more shelving just outside of the closet and a spacious vanity/desk/entertainment area with many storage shelves and drawers for more storage. All of the storage meant we got to completely unpack and put away our suitcases under the bed so there weren’t any tripping hazards. The vanity/desk area also had a mini-drawer refrigerator where we were able to store the wine and drinks we brought onboard with us. A curtain that separates the queen bed from the other 3 beds for if you want some privacy or to keep the kid’s sleeping area darker while the parents stay up after the younger ones have gone to bed. The bedding was all very comfortable and we slept well on premium plush Euro-top mattress with a soft duvet (you can ask for extras if you like a lot of blankets) and Frette 300-thread-count, 100 percent cotton sheets. The staterooms bathrooms on the Treasure are gorgeous and I love that there is a glass door instead of a shower curtain to a rectangle tub. The bathroom with the sink and toilet also has a nightlight so you don’t have to worry about keeping a “too bright” light on in the middle of the night. My favorite part of the room is the verandah. I love having a private outdoor space where I can enjoy breakfast on the patio while watching the ports we are docked in come alive with the hustle and bustle of visitors. At the end of the port day, I enjoy having a drink on the verandah while reading a book or having a quiet moment while watching the port as the ship sails away. Overall, I was very pleased with this stateroom location, it is conveniently located to the stairs and elevator - down the hall a bit so you don’t get a lot of noise from the stairwells and elevator vestibule. As for the Disney Treasure, I was simply blown away by this new ship! From the amazing main dining restaurants; to the pools and new AquaCoster; to the fun themed lounges; to the incredibly well-done Kids Clubs; and the adults only spaces - I cannot wait to get back onboard for a 7-night cruise out of Port Canaveral. You too are going to want to get on this ship and have dinner int he Coco themed restaurant with Miguel in his family; grab a cocktail at the Haunted Mansion Parlor; and enjoy the new Moana stage show.
