How to Experience Disney Without Splurging on a Park Ticket

Hop aboard a Disney cruise

Want the Disney experience, but with fewer lines and more diverse experiences? According to Michelle Pena of New York City, (and frequent Disney vacationer), Disney Cruise Line is worth every penny. “You feel like VIP from the moment you step on board,” says Pena. The best part about hopping on a cruise as opposed to heading to the parks? “Everything is right on board, minus the hustle and bustle of the parks,” says Pena. That includes meet and greets with characters, a movie theater that shows Disney’s recent releases, and water slides worth of a water park, not to mention an excellent kids’ club where parents can drop little ones off to enjoy some grown-up time.

While most cruises leave from Port Canaveral, Florida, and sail the Caribbean, there are also sailings from New York City, Alaska, Barcelona, Spain, and more. Read on for all the ways Disney Cruises are perfect for adults.
