disney cruise

When our Blue Lagoon port adventure got cancelled, we shifted gears and visited Ardastra Gardens in Nassau, Bahamas on our own.  While Disney normally offers this as an excursion, it was also cancelled on this Disney Wish stop, so we did it on our own and saved a considerable amount of money doing it that way as well! How we did it and our tips for you in this episode!

If you decide to do this one on YOUR own, you can get advance tickets and find out more about the park here. 

Sailing away on the Disney Fantasy cruise turned out to be an adventure we'll never forget, and we couldn't wait to bring you all the magical details. Picture this: seven nights of pure Disney delight, character meals that had us like never before, and the enchanting sparkle of fireworks over a boundless ocean. Our latest episode is a treasure chest of experiences, from the glamour of themed dinners to the excitement of exclusive after-hours events at the parks. Come along as we reveal how we sailed through every hiccup with that renowned Disney finesse, and get our insider tips on making the most of the Disney dining plan.

You know the joy and nostalgia that hits you when you step into Disney World? Multiply that by a hundred—that's the Disney Fantasy cruise for you. Our journey was a whirlwind of character encounters, with everyone from Cinderella to Captain Minnie, and we were swept up in the charm of it all. As we regale you with stories of rough seas met with high spirits, and mixology classes that taught us more than just how to shake a cocktail, you'll also hear how being a Disney Vacation Club member added an extra sprinkle of pixie dust to our experience. Trust us, this episode will have you considering your next Disney adventure before the final credits roll.

Wrapping up our saga, we highlight those unmissable cruise moments that made us wish we could stay at sea forever. A Toy Story themed breakfast with Woody and the gang, a formal night that had us rubbing elbows with superheroes, and that unforgettable Superhero-themed fireworks show—we cover it all. Our serving staff at the Royal Court deserves a shout-out for making every meal feel like a royal banquet. Whether you're a seasoned cruiser or contemplating your first Disney voyage, our tales from the high seas are sure to enchant, inspire, and fill you with that warm Disney glow. Join us and discover why the Disney Fantasy is more than just a ship—it's a floating haven of dreams.
