Why choose a Disney Cruise?

There are many Cruise Lines to choose from, and they all offer different dining options, activities, staterooms, etc.  They all travel to incredible destinations, and they have beautiful cruise ships.  So the question ends up being, why choose a Disney Cruise?

Well….when you sail on a Disney cruise, the magic and memorable experiences for families are seemingly endless.  You’ll have access to outstanding entertainment, dining, amenities, and much more.  Most experiences are included in the cost of your cruise.

There are plenty of family friendly activities included in your cruise fare:

  • Live, Broadway-caliber Disney shows
  • State of the art theatres that screen 3D, first-run and classic Disney movies
  • Deck parties and fireworks at sea on most itineraries
  • Pool areas — including a family pool, kids pool, splash zones, water slides and adult-exclusive pool
  • A sports deck
  • Plenty of Disney character experiences

  1. I don’t have any kids and have been on 4 different cruise lines and Disney is by far the favorite! So much great stuff. People sometimes ask why I love Disney Cruise Line so much and it’s like “where do I even start?!”

    • My husband and I love cruises, but we’ve been hesitant to take our daughter on her first cruise. The more I thought about it, there is so much to do on a Disney cruise ship for adults and kids, we have nothing to worry about. There will be more than enough activities to keep us all busy and happy. We’re going on the Disney Dream this November. It’s an agent training trip for me, but they get to tag along. We can’t wait!
