That gap became a real, lived comparison of the two companies, plus a full concierge-class review of the Disney Adventure sailing out of Singapore. In this episode: Sam's concierge-class review of the Disney Adventure, sailing out of Singapore Why an ABD cancellation sent her Japan tour to Tauck instead A 10-day Tauck Bridges tour through Tokyo, Hakone, Hiroshima, and Kyoto Head-to-head: where Adventures by Disney still has an edge, and where Tauck holds its own Fireworks, Palo Brunch for teens, and the longest rollercoaster at sea Plus: Disney Cruise Line news — a coordinate-decoding itinerary tease pointing to a New York City season "And Tauck does work on the weekend. So Tauck got my money." -Sam Support the show by becoming a Patron! Join us over at Patreon (https://patreon.com/dclduo).
