Has anyone been on a disney cruise?

Question

I'm going on a disney cruise with my family for spring break. Has anyone been on one, was it fun? What did you do on the boat, and when you got to the islands? Is there any activities.

Answer 1

Hopefully someone who's actually cruised Disney will be able to give you a more detailed answer, but in the meantime maybe I can be of some help.

My brother and his kids went on Disney and had a blast.  It's a very high-quality cruise line with great activities -- both for adults and for kids and teens (they separate by age group, which helps).  

It's a big ship, too, so even if you're not into the organized activities you can go swimming, play basketball, whatever.  The only thing they don't have compared with most cruise lines is a casino.

Yes, there are Disney characters walking around, just like at Disney World.

If you're going to Castaway Cay, Disney's private island, that's supposed to be mind-blowing.  Disney knows how to do entertainment.

If this is your first cruise, you might want to check out the Know Before You Go guide, which covers what to pack, cell phones, etc:

Also, this describes a "typical day on board":

Although it's not Disney-specific, it might help you get an idea for what a cruise is like.

Hope that helps!
