What to Expect from Magic of the Disney Treasure
From design dreams to setting sail, Magic of the Disney Treasure charts the journey of bringing this storytelling-packed ship to life. The documentary promises a closer look at the Disney magic onboard—including a Broadway-style adaptation of Moana from its early rehearsals to its grand debut.
Fans of Disney Pixar’s Coco will love seeing how Imagineers transformed the animated world into the vibrant Plaza de Coco restaurant. And for those drawn to the spooky side of Disney, the Haunted Mansion Parlor will come to life on screen, with a peek into the illusions that conjure “grim grinning ghosts” at sea.
Following the success of past National Geographic specials on the Disney Wish and Disney Lookout Cay, this latest documentary is sure to captivate cruisers, Disney lovers, and behind-the-scenes buffs alike.
A Look at the Disney Treasure
Launched last year, the Disney Treasure is themed entirely around adventure. Highlights onboard include:
Plaza de Coco, the first Coco-inspired dining experience
The delightfully eerie Haunted Mansion Parlor
Skipper Society Lounge, channeling the charm of The Jungle Cruise
A brand-new storyline on the AquaMouse water coaster

The ship joins a magical fleet alongside the Disney Magic, Wonder, Fantasy, Dream, Wish, and soon, the upcoming Disney Destiny—set to sail on November 20, 2025. Looking ahead, the Disney Adventure will launch from Singapore on December 15, 2025, and Disney’s cruise reach will expand even further with ships planned for Japan (2029) and three smaller vessels scheduled for 2029–2031.
