Ep. 697 - Would You Take a Toddler on a 5-Week Disney Cruise to Europe?
Description
She flew a toddler across the Atlantic and didn't stop there. Emily, a Disney Cruise Line travel advisor based in Denmark, spent five straight weeks aboard the Disney Dream — a transatlantic crossing followed by three back-to-back European itineraries. Four cruises, five weeks, one very well-traveled four-year-old.
In this episode:
- How a "why not, since we're already over here" idea turned into a five-week, four-sailing itinerary
- The transatlantic crossing itself — booking it, flying in, and what those sea days are actually like
- A local guide near Civitavecchia who turned one port day into the best day of the entire trip
- Why hitting the Parthenon mid-morning was the wrong call (and when to go instead)
- How the kids club experience changes once your toddler ages out of the nursery
- Real talk on eating the same rotational menus for five straight weeks
"There are these waterfalls that you — it's like one of these crazy Instagram pictures you can't even believe is real. And it was free. My son and I just played in the water for like two and a half hours, we got some snacks, we got ice cream, and it was... the best day. It was so great."
