Mouse Ear Vacations

Adventures by Disney are complete vacation experiences that allow you to immerse yourself in exotic places or right in your own backyard. Each adventure is supported by two Disney Adventures Guides who will not only handle the details of your travel experience, but also act as expert guides during your sojourn in an adventure destination.

There are few opportunities as well-executed as Disney Adventures. Your guides will provide exceptional concierge-style personal service that allows you to explore and experiment to your heart’s content. Day-to-day detail like hotel check-ins, luggage logistics, making dinner reservations and setting up excursions and special events are best trusted to their capable hands.

Of course, the whole point of signing up for one of the Disney Adventures is to engage in the world at a deeper level than you’re probably accustomed to, with the over the top service Disney provides.  Your Adventure Guides will aid you immensely in this area by also expanding your awareness of the historical background, customs and culture, and all the usually missed bits of lore that make your chosen destination unique in the world.

On your adventure, you can peek behind the scenes at the Lion King theatrical production in London, let your kids explore art hands-on at the Louvre in Paris, wrangle horses in Wyoming, dance a jig in Ireland or mesmerize your mate with flamenco.

Each adventure encompasses a bit of history, a dash of experiment, an easy connection to local customs, people and places. In the end, Disney magic has a way of making your chosen adventure even more special than you probably could ever have achieved on your own.

Here are some of the vast number of possibilities for your own adventure:

·       The Australian adventure features the Great Barrier Reef, Ayers Rock and Sydney

·       The Chinese adventure takes you to Beijing, Sichuan province, Old Shanghai and Hong Kong

·       Separate adventures for Costa Rica, Ecuador and Peru highlight the unique delights of each area and immerse you in the natural beauty of Central and South America

·       Several adventures feature the charm of individual countries and areas, including the Alps, Austria, the Czech Republic, Italy, Germany, France, Spain, France, Britain and Ireland

·       North American adventures can put you in the saddle in Wyoming, fish with the bears in Alaska, absorb the cosmopolitan atmosphere of Boston and New York City, wonder at the rugged beauty of Big Sky country in Montana, check out our nation’s capitol in Washington DC or become enchanted with Northern California charm

Besides that, they tend to be a tremendous amount of fun – an added bonus for the heady and often super serious mental playground of specialty tours.

Put into service in the late 1990s, the Disney Cruise Line includes two sister ships, The Disney Magic® which sails alternating Eastern and Western seven-night Caribbean trips, and The Disney Wonder® which handles three- and four-day trips to the Bahamas.

Both ships stop at Castaway Cay, Disney’s private island. Passengers can optionally include a land-based stay at a Walt Disney World resort as part of their trip.

The Disney Magic is scheduled for return to Europe in 2010, where it first went during the summer of 2007. The ship will embark on Continental, Western Mediterranean and Northern European cruises out of various ports.

Disney has introduced a number of innovative features not found on ships in other lines. Disney Cruise Line ships feature cabins with a bath-and-a-half, rotating dining room schedules that allow passengers to eat at three different restaurants and free sodas in the restaurants and at the pool deck self-service beverage station.

Other cruise lines usually outfit their ships with casinos and libraries. The Disney Cruise Line offers neither.

Plans for two new ships are in the making, each somewhat larger than The Disney Magic and The Disney Wonder. The new ships will have passenger counts of somewhere around 3,750 as opposed to the existing ships’ count of 2,400.

Disney Cruise Line ships are designed to be family-centric with sophisticated live and media entertainment features like Walt Disney Theater, Buena Vista Cinema and Studio Sea. Disney Digital 3-D, a cinema experience that uses lasers and light effects along with fog and other effects will debut in late 2008 on both ships.

Disney Cruise Line ships each have three pools, including the main family pool, a pool for younger kids with a water-slide and a small sprinkler tub for toddlers, and an adults-only pool. Water sports activities are plentiful.

Adults have plenty of options to explore onboard. Palo restaurant is extremely popular, offering Mediterranean and Northern Italian cuisine and many other dining options exist for adult taste buds. The spa is also adults-only and features a rain forest steam room. Beat Street on the Magic and Route 66 on the Wonder are adult-only nightclub areas each with a piano bar, dance club, sports bar and other features.

Cabin accommodations range from family affairs that hold six. Disney’s somewhat roomier-than-average staterooms can handle at least four. All come with television, bathtubs, mini-bars and safes.

Children’s programs and activities are extensive, well supervised and thoughtfully executed with something for every age group. Onboard childcare is available at very reasonable hourly rates. Children are automatically signed up in the children’s programs on Castaway Cay. Disney characters add excitement throughout the day onboard and on the island by popping up at unexpected moments.

All in all, Disney provides great family and group fun with plenty of variety and entertainment at reasonable prices and a nice selection of itineraries. Bookings for 2009 trips are being currently offered with additional incentives at the end of 2008 so anyone considering this kind of cruise is advised to check the details soon to obtain the best deals.

Many adventurous souls have considered the pleasures to be had on board a cruise ship, and some even give in to the allure. Long considered costly and out of the reach for many vacationing families, a Disney cruise offers a surprisingly affordable way to gather the family and head for the high seas in search of adventure.

A Disney cruise is just as fun-filled and exciting or peaceful and relaxing as each member of your family wants it. Disney Wonder® and Disney Magic®, Disney’s modern, luxurious sister ships, provide lots of opportunity for rollicking good fun and lots of space for a little pampered rest and relaxation. The whole family will find what they need to have the trip of a lifetime thanks to the ships’ appointments and capacity to entertain, captivate and nurture.

As in previous years, The Disney Magic and The Disney Wonder will play the sparkling waters of the Bahamas and the Caribbean in 2009. Beginning in 2010, The Disney Magic will make her way to Europe for excursions that highlight the Continent, Western Mediterranean and Northern Europe. Other future Disney cruise plans include the possible commissioning of two more ships destined for other world adventures.

Adults and kids alike with find plenty to see and do on a Disney cruise. Entertainment is ample for both adults and kids with particularly well-orchestrated offerings for kids of all ages and teenagers. Disney characters make special appearance throughout the voyage, sure to delight their young fans. Workshops and special children’s activities are well-planned and executed, and Mom and Dad are given plenty of options for relief from constantly having to monitor their children.

While a Disney cruise is very family-oriented for the most part, adults have their own areas on board to enjoy romantic dining, wine tasting, behind the scenes tours, sports and fitness, spa treatments, and more. Disney goes out of its way to bring balance and a sense of easygoing involvement in everything offered as entertainment or activity on board.

Cruise packages are available that take advantage of a vast array of Disney’s cruise vacation options for accommodations, food service, entertainment and programs, activities of all sorts, shore excursions and more. Every package is flexible, affordable and customizable which makes it easy to put together the perfect cruise for everyone. The waiters and other service staff provide courteous, often hilarious service with a smile and true Disney efficiency is very much in evidence.

With all the many packages and options available, a travel consultant well versed in Disney cruise offerings is highly recommended. Cruise itineraries currently include 3-, 4-, 7-Night or more packages and a 7-Night Land and Sea Vacation is available for those wishing to enjoy Walt Disney World in Florida. Ask your travel consultant for more information and current deals.
