We are starting a new “Did You Know” series at Theme Park Professor! Each post will focus on essential facts and details about subjects like Disney destinations, Universal Orlando Resort Hotels, Universal Parks information, and Disney Cruise Line.
I am happy to present the first of our series, “Did You Know: Disney Cruise Line.”
Disney Cruise Line is comprised of five ships, with the newest just launched in mid-2022. All five ships were designed to bring about a whimsical yet elegant experience on the high seas. From immersive dining adventures to Disney’s first-ever attraction at sea, these ships present magical vacations that visit several exciting destinations. Disney Cruise Line’s ports of call include places in Europe, the Caribbean, Mexico, Canada, Alaska, and Disney’s private Bahamian island, Castaway Cay. And depending on when you cruise, you may be able to pick from themed itineraries for Halloween and Christmas. Or, choose from a Pixar, Marvel, or Star Wars adventure at sea! The best part is that you sail with your favorite Disney pals and even meet and hug them around the ship and on Disney’s private island, Castaway Cay!
Here’s what you need to know about all five of the Disney cruise ships, including the newest vessel, the Disney Wish.
Disney Dream
Onboard Entertainment
This Disney Dream boasts variety shows like “The Golden Mickeys,” an onboard spectacle celebrating Disney’s notable films and songs with plenty of character appearances. Still, its live rendition of “Beauty and the Beast” remains a signature show of Disney Cruise Line with its unfathomable sets, costumes, and performances.
Families can take in a round of outdoor mini golf on Goofy’s Sports Deck or stay inside to play Midship Detective Agency, a trio of interactive games featuring Muppets, Mickey Mouse, or Cruella de Vil. There’s plenty of aquatic fun on this Disney cruise liner, with Nemo’s Reef for littles, an array of pools, and the AquaDuck, an onboard “water coaster” with views of the surrounding ocean, which is a Disney Cruise family favorite.
Exclusively For Kids
With interactive features and themed spaces, Disney’s Oceaneer Club allows kids ages 3-12 to play in a “Toy Story”-themed room, explore Pixie Hollow with Tinker Bell, and take a simulated flight on the Millennium Falcon. There are also activities with characters, like Puzzle Playtime with Mickey and Friends, which lets young children play games alongside their favorite Disney characters, and more experiences within Disney’s Oceaneer Lab, tween hangs in Edge, and Vibe, a teen club with its own private pool.
Experiences For Adults
Unwind at Senses Spa or indulge in upscale dining at Palo and Remy, which are exclusive to adults on board. (Be sure to make a reservation in advance.) Grab an after-dinner drink at Meridian, or head to The District for a bottle at Pink: Wine and Champagne Bar or drinks at Skyline, Pub 687, District Lounge, or Evolution.
Disney Dream Dining
Passengers on the Disney Dream will rotate between three different dinner eateries: elegant French fare at Enchanted Garden; storybook fine dining at Royal Palace; and a fully-immersive Animator’s Palate, bringing together the animated film libraries of Disney and Pixar for a meal filled with intrigue and surprise.
Order room service hit Cabanas or Flo’s Cafe, a trio of Cars-themed eateries with chicken fingers and cheeseburgers, or grab a healthy smoothie at Senses Juice Bar or a special dessert at Vanellope’s Sweets & Treats for an additional fee.

Disney Fantasy
Onboard Entertainment
Flex that vacation muscle at Disney Fantasy’s pools, including Nemo’s Reef for children and rides on the AquaDuck, a hybrid water slide and roller coaster with 765 feet of tubes above the top deck.
Uncover a hidden world of fun with Midship Detective Agency, an all-ages interactive game utilizing screens and props hidden throughout the ship. Watch current releases in the on-board Buena Vista Theatre or play basketball or experience VR sports simulators at sea on Goofy’s Sports Deck. At night, Disney Fantasy offers live shows, including “Disney’s Believe,” a narrative with visits from “Cinderella,” “Mary Poppins” and “Peter Pan;” “Frozen, A Musical Spectacular;” and “Disney’s Aladdin – A Musical Spectacular,” the Disney ship’s headlining show.
Exclusively For Kids
Kids ages 3-12 can learn mystic arts from Marvel’s “Doctor Strange” in the Marvel Super Hero Academy, sing and dance with “Toy Story’s” Woody in Andy’s Room, encounter real Stormtroopers at the Star Wars: Command Post or enjoy kid-friendly activities with Mickey Mouse and friends. There’s endless inventive fun across Disney’s Oceaneer Lab and Club, and for older kids, at Edge and Vibe clubs.
Experiences For Adults
Whether you’re shopping around the ship, grabbing a gin and tonic at Meridian — or taking a beverage-tasting seminar to learn more about them — there are loads for adults to do. The Disney cruise ship offers two adults-only restaurants: Palo, which serves elegant Italian dishes, and Remy, a French-coursed menu experience. Enjoy Europa, a collection of stylized bars, including Ooh La La champagne bar and La Piazza, an Italian bar reminiscent of a carousel.
Disney Fantasy Dining
Three restaurants aboard this Disney cruise ship mean something different every night, whether it’s the fairytale-inspired Royal Court, beautiful Enchanted Garden, or Animator’s Palate, which utilizes real-time interaction with a popular “Finding Nemo” character. Quick eats can be found at Cabanas restaurant and Flo’s Cafe, while fanciful sundaes at Sweet on You and shakes at Senses Juice Bar are worthwhile upgrades. (With its Mickey cappuccinos, Cove Cafe is also a must.)

Disney Wonder
A trip aboard the Disney Wonder can lead to familiar tropical escapes and a memory-making Alaskan vacation, with all the Disney cruise goodies included on board. Repeat cruisers love this vessel for its smaller size, which makes for a more intimate trip.
Onboard Entertainment
Disney cruise ships are famous for their nightly shows. “Disney Dreams — an Enchanted Classic” and “The Golden Mickeys” feature best-of-the-best Disney characters and music, but “Frozen, A Musical Spectacular,” which brings Anna and Elsa’s story to life with Broadway-style costuming and design, is a Disney Cruise Line favorite.
When you’re not enjoying Disney cruise activities like viewing Star Wars and Marvel films currently in theatres or playing ping pong and basketball at Wide World of Sports, there are plenty of pools, hot tubs, and AquaLab water play areas to enjoy on the outer decks. There’s even Disney Wonder’sPixar Pals Party, a fun-filled celebration with characters from “Toy Story,” “Up,” and more, exclusively offered on Alaskan sailings with Disney Cruise Line.
Exclusively For Kids
Kids ages 3 to 12 can get up close to characters they love, dancing with Woody in a “Toy Story”-themed area, taking hero training with Captain America within Marvel Super Hero Academy, or build their own Mickey Roadster Racers in a Disney Junior games area on board the Disney cruise ship, as older kids enjoy their slate of activities in Vibe teen club and tween hang The Edge. (There is also babysitting available for small children within the “It’s a Small World” nursery at a small fee.)
Experiences For Adults
Make a reservation for Palo, an adults-only restaurant serving dinner each night and brunch on most sea days, or break for a pint at Crown & Fin Pub or a cocktail at Cadillac Lounge, housed within the Disney cruise ships After Hours section. There are also an adults-only pool and outdoor areas on the Disney Wonder cruise ship, beverage seminars, and the Senses Spa’s “rainforest room.”
Disney Wonder Dining
Grab a slice at Pinocchio’s Pizzeria by Goofy’s Pool, a snack at Pete’s Boiler Bites, or some healthy fare at Daisy’s De-Lites — or hit the buffet at Cabanas, located on four Disney cruise ships. Dinner rotations bring diners to a new restaurant each night: Enjoy the flavor and fun of New Orleans at “The Princess & The Frog”-themed Tiana’s Place; the elegant “The Little Mermaid”-inspired Triton’s; or Animator’s Palate, which begins black-and-white and grows to be surrounded by color with a surprise at the meal’s end.

Disney Magic
As the original Disney Cruise Line vessel, the Disney Magic retains its charm while embracing a collection of modernizations and upgrades to feel good as new.
Onboard Entertainment
Three Broadway-style shows are performed on the Disney Magic: “Twice Charmed,” a twist on the Cinderella story; “Disney Dreams — An Enchanted Classic,” an original show with cameos by characters like Peter Pan and Aladdin; and “Tangled: The Musical,” Disney Magic’s signature show featuring stunning sets and beloved songs from the film.
In addition to the nightly live entertainment throughout the ship, families can take in Marvel, Pixar, Disney, and Star Wars films currently in movie theaters at the full-size Buena Vista Theatre. On the outdoor upper decks, the Wide World of Sports offers basketball and ping pong, a selection of pools and hot tubs, and the famed AquaDunk water slide.
Exclusively For Kids
Whisk down a Slinky Dog slide in the “Toy Story”-themed Andy’s Room area, join the Lion Guard, or learn hero-worthy lessons from Thor within a Marvel Super Hero Academy — it’s all part of Disney’s Oceaneer Club, open to children ages 3 through 12. There are even more exciting Disney experiences throughout Disney’s Oceaneer Lab, Vibe teen club, and Edge tween club, all included with Disney Cruise ship sailings. (“It’s a Small World” nursery, which charges a nominal hourly rate, is also available for younger children.)
Experiences For Adults
Disney cruise ships are covered in high-end decor and thoughtful designs that feel more classy and less kid-focused, but select adults-only experiences, including exclusive lounges and pools, still thrive. A collection of bars called After Hours has live music nightly at Keys, a ‘50s piano bar, and an opportunity to catch up on sports at O’Gills Pub. At the same time, Palo, a higher-end restaurant that requires a surcharge and reservation, is the ultimate date night. Don’t miss the “rainforest room” in the Disney Magic’s Senses Spa and adult beverage tasting seminars.
Disney Magic Dining
Guests on the Disney Magic cruise ship will rotate between three restaurants nightly. Rapunzel’s Royal Table provides a themed night of lively music, revelry from some Snuggly Duckling denizens, and an appearance by Rapunzel and Flynn Rider within a lantern-lined ballroom. Animator’s Palate is surrounded by mementos from Disney and Pixar animated films that “come to life” throughout dinner, and Lumiere’schannels the elegance of “Beauty and the Beast.”
Casual meals can be ordered at Cabanas or via 24-hour room service on board the Disney Magic. Otherwise, stop by Duck-In Diner for hot dogs, chicken fingers, or a shawarma sandwich or enjoy a quick lunch at Pinocchio’s Pizzeria.

Disney Wish
Onboard Entertainment
Disney Cruise Line’s newest ship, the Disney Wish, is packed with brand-new entertainment for all ages. The AquaMouse — Disney’s first-ever attraction at sea — and Toy Story Splash Zone provide aquatic fun; two cozy theaters show new and favorite Disney, Marvel, Pixar, and Star Wars films; and the Walt Disney Theater features Broadway-style shows, including a retelling of “The Little Mermaid,” “Disney Seas the Adventure,” and “Disney’s Aladdin: A Musical Spectacular.”
Exclusively for Kids
At Disney’s Oceaneer Club on the Wish, kids ages three to 12 can live out their Marvel and Star Wars adventures in the Marvel Super Hero Academy and Star Wars: Cargo Bay and join their favorite princesses in Fairytale Hall. In the new Walt Disney Imagineering Lab, they can discover Imagineer secrets and design their coaster. Edge and Vibe offer organized fun for older kids.
Experiences for Adults
The Disney Wish pulls out all the stops for adults, with lots of magical experiences just for them. Star Wars: Hyperspace Lounge offers intergalactic sips inspired by galaxies far, far away, The Bayou has a “Princess and the Frog”-themed menu in a beautiful setting, and The Cove includes an adults-only pool and bar. The ship also has a Palo Steakhouse and Enchanté by chef Arnaud Lallement, a stunning restaurant offering a multicourse dinner. The Disney Cruise Line favorite Senses Spa is also on this ship.
Disney Wish Dining
In addition to the truly exceptional adults-only restaurants, Disney Wish offers some delightful onboard dining for the whole family. 1923 serves California flavors in a space inspired by Old Hollywood; Worlds of Marvel features the escapades of Ant-Man and the Wasp; and Arendelle: A FrozenDining Adventure is an immersive experience with singing, dancing, and visits from everyone’s favorite Frozen characters. Casual dining is available at several venues throughout the ship, including Marceline Market and Mickey and Friends Festival of Food.

Are you considering a trip? This is a great time to plan your perfect vacation! Having a travel advisor means someone there to have your back in any occurrence. There is no additional cost to you and you have peace of mind knowing that your vacation is in good hands.
f you’ve ever experienced a Disney Cruise, you already know—there is truly nothing quite like Disney Cruise Line. With its exceptional service, immersive storytelling, and magical touches around every corner, it’s no wonder Disney Cruise Line was named the World’s Best Cruise Line by Travel + Leisure in 2022!
Over the years, I’ve had the chance to sail on multiple Disney ships, and while each one brings that signature Disney charm, every ship also offers unique experiences that set it apart. What makes the Disney Wish so special is how it blends the very best features from all the previous ships into one breathtaking, next-generation vessel.
From cutting-edge entertainment to innovative dining experiences and stunning design inspired by beloved Disney stories, the Wish is a ship unlike any other. Last week, we took you behind the scenes of the top adults-only zonesonboard. But today, we’re turning our focus to the incredible kid-friendly spaces that make the Disney Wish a dream come true for young cruisers.
Whether your child is into superheroes, princesses, science, storytelling, or galaxy-hopping adventures, there’s something aboard the Disney Wish that will spark their imagination and keep them entertained from sunrise to bedtime. Let’s dive into the amazing spaces created just for kids!
The ship offers a number of experiences for the entire family, but children will likely have the most fun with the ship’s large and new selection of entertainment onboard. Just like most of Disney Cruise Line’s ships, the Disney Wish too will have an Oceaneer Club, but this one is totally different and cool.
To start, kids wanting to get into Disney’s Oceaneer Club will take a twisting slide entrance straight from the ship’s Grand Hall on deck three to deck two. Following a check-in with a Disney cast member (or “counselor” as they call them) at the top of the slide, children ages 3-12 will slide down the “rabbit hole” to the elite club.
There is a staircase just around the corner for adults and for children that do not want to take the slide. Once you climb through the “rabbit hole” you are taken to a whole new Wonderland that features places for children to imagine, play, and have an excellent time aboard the ship. Trust us… They won’t want to come back to you!
(Look how cute the bathrooms are!)
Inside Disney’s Oceaneer Club, kids will find activities from the worlds of ‘Marvel,’ ‘Star Wars,’ Walt Disney Disney Imagineering and so much more.
Star Wars: Cargo Bay
Taking a page from the new Star Wars Galactic Starcruiser, this area of the ship is designed to make anyone a Star Wars fan! It doesn’t matter which side of the force you are, the Star Wars: Cargo Bay will fully immerse children into a galaxy far, far away.
Kids will come face-to-face with otherworldly creatures, interact with popular characters and even take part in a first-of-its-kind experience, “Star Wars: Creature Challenge.” When kids enter they will be given a data pad to scan tags around the cargo bay. The data pad will give them all the information they need to learn about the creature, how to feed it and how to take care of it, and they learn about all of them. Of course, there is always a challenge with Star Wars, and something is going to happen. You’ll also be visited by a couple friends to help along the way, Chewbacca and Rey!
Marvel Super Hero Academy
There is a new Marvel area in Disney’s Oceaneer Club on the Disney Wish! “Marvel Super Hero Academy” offers a fun and interactive way to bring their favorite Marvel movies to life.
The space has a bunch of exciting activities, including “Avengers: Mission Training.” You’ll be recruited to train alongside a number of superheroes such as Spiderman, Black Panther, Ant Man and the Wasp as they gear up to virtually fight Ultron, an android supervillain from the films. Kids will be given a magic band ti customize their super suite so they can battle on Ultron.
There are some really great entertainment programs where kids learn what it takes to be a superhero. Because that’s the whole idea behind the Super Hero Academy – the superheroes are coming to the academy to train the future heroes of the world. So the kids can train right besides them!
Other activities include “the Power of Pym” with Ant Man, “Challenge of the Taskmaster” with Black Panther and even a demonstration with Spiderman.
If you are a jealous parent at home, don’t worry! You’ll get to check it all out during the open house.
Walt Disney Imagineering Lab
Do you have a future Imagineer at home? Well, they might be after you cruise on the Disney Wish! The Walt Disney Imagineering Lab is a brand-new location developed just for the ship. Kids get to discover the secrets of Disney Imagineers with hands-on activities and inventive experiments. All around the room are models and drawings from popular attractions including Remy’s Ratatouille Adventure, Cars Land, Journey into Imagination with Figment, Dumbo the Flying Elephant and Tron Lightcycle/RUN.
You can even have the chance to create your own roller coaster and then climb into a capsule where they virtually ride their imaginative masterpiece at the Ride Studio(see in the video above).
Fairytale Hall
Inside the Fairytale Hall in Disney’s Oceaneer Club, children will find themselves in the worlds of ‘Beauty and the Beast,’ ‘Frozen’ and ‘Tangled.’ This is similar to other Disney Cruise Line ships but is still a beautiful set up and place to visit for pinces and princess from any land.
Children can craft floating lanterns at Rapunzel’s Art Studio, act out their favorite stories in Belle’s Library and even create their own ice magic at Anna & Elsa’s Sommerhus. There are also movies playing to just relax and enjoy some downtime.
Mickey and Minnie Captain’s Deck
Imagineers also developed a new space for younger children in mind that is being called the Mickey and Minnie Captain’s Deck. The nautical-themed playground is filled with an array of maritime-themed physical and sensory-style games and activities.
The signature experience is a high-energy training session for kids to exercise their bodies (through games, dancing and maritime “drills”) and their minds, testing their imagination and ingenuity during a series of challenges tied to STEAM principles. Check out the video below:
Kid’s Club Hangouts
We didn’t forget abut the big kids. If you thought the Vibe and Edge on other Disney Cruise ships was cool… Wait until you see the Disney Wish! Not only d they have newly designed Vibe and Edge. They brought brand new third location, The Hideaway! Outside of Disney’s Oceaneer Club, these three hang-out spots are just for children ages 11-14.
All three spaces are bursting with creative design details, comfortable lounge space, high-tech entertainment and a packed schedule of can’t-miss activities. Both Edge and Vibe offer a main lounge space with cozy furnishings, an oversized LED screen and plenty of room to hang out as a group, as well as comfortable niches for solo gaming and movie watching. Each venue will include complimentary refreshments: Edge will have a soda bar, Vibe will serve soda and coffee drinks and The Hideaway will offer smoothies.
Hero Zone Sports Arena
Last but definatkey not least… There is another brand new family-zone to kee you active on the ship! Disney is inviting the whole family to enjoy the Hero Zone.
Just around the corner from Vibe and the Hideaway, families can play basketball and soccer and even take part in the “Incredi-Games.” The blow-up obstacle course involves physical challenges themed to the characters from Disney and Pixar’s “The Incredibles.” On the top level of the Hero Zone, families can sit back and relax or enjoy a friendly competition in a variety of table-top games.
it’s a small world Nursey
Now for the very little ones, age 6 months to 3 years old, there is a special place aboard the ship just for them. The “it’s a small world nursery” located on Deck 2 of the ship. All Disney Cruise ships have the nursey onbiard but this has to be the cutest one I have ever seen. There you will find a gorgeous area where babysitting services will be provided. Children in this area will be able to play games, make crafts, watch movies, read books and spend time with Disney friends.
The nursery is open today from 9 am through 11 pm daily, giving plenty of opportunities for childcare whenever families may need it throughout the day. Inside, qualified and experienced counselors will ensure the little guests will be looked after and entertained to the highest standard, putting parents’ and carers’ minds at ease while they enjoy some kid-free time on their vacation.
