Now in it's 3rd year of offering guided family vacations, Disney is expanding it's product line. Disney is keeping their original 15 trips and adding the following:
Alpine Magic (Italy & Switzerland)
Beantown & the Big Apple (Boston, Newport & New York City)
Bella Italia (Sorrento & Florence)
Gateway to the Galapagos (Galapagos Islands & Ecuador)
Golden Path to Yosemite (Lake Tahoe, Yosemite National Park & San Francisco)
Rocky Trails and Mountie Tales (Glacier & Banff National Parks, Montana & Alberta)
Safari to South Africa (Capetown, Kapama Game Reserve & the Garden Route)
Taming the Last Frontier (Fairbanks, Denali, Kenai Peninsula)
Disney has done a great job at selecting great itineraries and include activities that cater to both adults and children.
In South Africa for example, they have a guided safari for the entire family. Adults later participate in wine tasting while the children participate in pastry making and kids only dinners.
In the Flavors of France itinerary, adults visit the Louvre Museum while children participate in a Junior Art Detective activity so that they can learn while being entertained.
Bookings are open for 2009, and with it's increased popularity, it is wise to book early.

Disney Cruise Line just opened for reservations this week for European cruises beginning in 2010.
The Disney Magic will offer 12 day cruises to Scandinavia, Germany & Russia, as well as Med cruises. Do you think Russia is a child friendly destination? The ship will stay overnight in St. Petersburg. Children will be able to dress up as princes & princesses and attend balls at a real castle. Would parents be willing to do separate excursions from that of their children, or miss out on all that St. Petersburg has to offer?
