One of our team members - Lara Anderson – Business Development Manager for Creative Cruising in Australia recently enjoyed a seven night Mexican Riviera cruise onboard Disney Wonder, the very ship that will be in port in Auckland. Here’s what she had to offer as the Top Tips while cruising with Disney:
1. Disney is not just for kids and families! There is actually quite a lot to do for adults only on-board too!
2. If you are travelling with a family, the kids clubs are amazing and split into age appropriate groups with specifically catered for activities. The friendliness of the staff on-board is second to none.
3. Don’t miss the Disney musicals on board, productions that you’d often pay hundreds of dollars on land to see.
4. The cabins are all significantly larger than other cruise lines, and all have split bathrooms.
5. Disney has a one-of-a-kind rotational dining experience. You will be given your dining schedule upon boarding which lists where you will dine, and the time each night. Your waiter and Maitre D’ travel with you to each dining room. Each restaurant is a completely different themed room, with different menus. Most dinners, your wait staff will also perform for you, as well as there being special character appearances. As your waiter travels with you, they already know of any dietary requirements or special items you might like each night.
6. Do note that there are no casinos or gambling on Disney Cruises.
7. Disney is one of the few cruise lines to have fireworks at sea!
8. Disney Cruises offer specialty themes throughout the year, if you love all things, Christmas, Halloween, or even Star Wars then a Disney Cruise is absolutely the right choice.
From October 2023 through February 2024.
Board a Disney Cruise for a truly memorable cruise and meet your new pals from Star Wars, Marvel, Pixar, and Disney.
Oh! And did we mention Adults have their own private areas?! Areas especially for you to unwind and relax, this includes a pool area, as well as some very grown up classy sophisticated dining options, and let's not forget the very special revitalising Senses Spa.
