Putting Together Your Disney Cruise Package

People typically think of a Disney cruise package as a kids-only adventure, but that's not the case. Adults can also have a lovely time on a Disney cruise.

Bring Out the Kid in You

When people think of Donald and Goofy and Mickey, they tend to think of kids watching Saturday morning cartoons. Kids absolutely love Disneyworld, but they're not the only ones who can have fund on Disney cruises. In fact, if you're an adult and you're young at heart, you may have even more fun than a kid!

Cruises are great for adults because they're relaxing and they're all inclusive. With a cruise you don't have to worry about where your meals are coming from or where you're going to stay. Everything is taken care of for you! You can also relax and take in a few spa treatments while you're on the ship. Disney cruises also feature a plethora of bars and restaurants couples can enjoy after a day of laying by one of the many pools.

A Disney cruise package includes several days on a cruise ship. The actual cruise portion of the trip usually includes a small tour of nearing islands such as St. Thomas, St. John or St. Maartten. Many cruise lines will also include several days at a Disney hotel and your airfare in the cruise price. While you're staying in the Disney hotel, you'll have unlimited access to Disney parks such as the Magic Kingdom, the water parks, MGM Studios and EPCOT.

Cruises always include food and drinks. Most of them include alcoholic beverages on their drink list, though you may have to pay an extra fee for a drink bracelet. Pay close attention to what your package includes. This will help you compare cruise packages and will protect you from not getting something you want.

Keep in mind that you'll get to do more if you go on a longer cruise. Staying in a Disney hotel for three days will not be included in a three-day cruise because there won't be any time. A three day cruise may include a tour of Bahamas and lots of Disneyesque entertainment on the cruise ship.

Traveling Tips

Just because your Disney cruise will be virtually all-inclusive, doesn't mean that you won't have to prepare for the trip. Make sure to bring a passport. You will not be able to board any cruise ship that leaves the country unless you have your passport. Also, don't forget a light jacket and bug spray. While cruise ships don't have a lot of bugs, the ports you're going to stop at will. Sunscreen is also a must have. Remember, your Disney cruise package will include stopovers in very hot, sunny climates and you want to protect your skin.
