Thanks to our client Jen O’Brien for sending us this review. We had set Jen and her family up with transfers to and from the port through Happy Limo in addition to booking their inside stateroom on the cruise:
We were fortunate to be one of the first passengers to sail on the new Disney Dream cruise ship! Rather than give a detailed review in words we instead created the video below to show the features of this great ship.
Our 6th time sailing with Disney was one of our best! In this report we’ll tell you the story of our October 2008 Disney Wonder Cruise. While we won’t attempt to describe everything you can do on a Disney Cruise (there are whole books devoted to that topic) we’ll discuss the activities/features we enjoyed most.
We sailed with a bunch of other Disney fans as part of Mousefest 2005 on the Disney Wonder. This was truly a “wonderful” cruise because in addition to all the regular benefits of a Disney sailing we also enjoyed the special features of Mousefest.
Does a 4 night Disney cruise with a group of over 180 Disney fans sound like fun? It was! In early December 2004 I sailed on my first “MouseFest” cruise. The MouseFest cruise featured Passporter guide authors Dave and Jennifer Marx and Deb Wills of AllEarsNet.com as our “celebrity” hosts.
In May 2003 my wife and I took a 3 night Disney cruise that I had won in a Disney travel agent sales contest. While thrilled to be taking my third Disney cruise, a few questions immediately popped into my head: 
Would a 3 night cruise seem too short? I’m used to 7 night cruises! How would the Disney Wonder compare to the Disney Magic? The latter ship I had cruised on twice before, but this would be my first time on the Disney Wonder. We had already visited the two ports on this cruise (Nassau and Castaway Cay) – would we find new and exciting things to do on this cruise?
Can two adults enjoy a 7 Night Disney Cruise without their kids? This is the question my wife Anne and I set out to find the answer to when we took the 7 Night
Western Caribbean Cruise on the Disney Magic from November 9th through November 16th, 2002. We had taken the Disney Cruise before, a 3 night Disney Magic Cruise in May 2000, with our twin sons (they were 6 years old in 2000). This time we were interested to see how the longer 7 night cruise would compare to the short 3 night cruise, and what activities were available exclusively for adults. Below I will give the highlights of our trip, day by day. I have included some recommendations (preceded by the words “TIP”) throughout the report.
This is a review of my family’s first Disney Cruise and first cruise ever that I wrote in 2000 before I was a travel agent. This trip got us hooked on cruises and we have taken many since then!
