It should come as no surprise, given the news over the past day that in addition to theme park and cruise line closures, Disney has also decided to temporary suspend operations for Adventures By Disney- Disney’s guided tour company offering vacations to destinations around the globe.
The last tour will be an Australia getaway slated to start on March 15th. Any tours slated to leave after that will be postponed. You can check out the official announcement here:
The following tours are affected by the closure:
Disneyland Resort & Southern California departures through March
Disneyland Resort & Southern California Escape departures through March
England and France departures through April
Egypt departures through April (due to connecting flights through the affected areas)
Greece departures through April
Vietnam, Laos & Cambodia departures through May
Italy departures through May
Italy and Amalfi Coast departures through May
Japan departures through May
All guests that have already booked an Adventure By Disney Tour during these dates will be contacted directly by Disney. Guests should also reach out to your Travel Agent or the Adventures By Disney Contact Center at 1.855.223.00245 or 407.566.8345 with any questions or concerns.
Disney does have plans to continue with all 2020 tours not listed in the cancellation list above. However guests should be mindful of the following guidelines:
