    Me and my husband are planning a trip with our two daughters in may one is 3 and one is 5 we are wondering what are the babysitting expenses? Also we are trying to figure out what activities are included in our Disney Dream Cruise vacation once aboard?

    Hi Joseph!  I was just watching the Disney Dream christening celebration!   I've been on three Disney cruises and all of them have been spectacular!  For me, the best part of a Disney cruise is that I get to spend time with my husband WITHOUT the kids!  I felt guilty the first time I dropped them off and that ended when I went to pick them up and they BEGGED to stay longer!  You can have as much (or as little) family time as you want and know that the kids are well taken care of and having a blast!  Your children are at a great age to take advantage of the kids clubs on the ship!  Everything is age appropriate, and speaking as a mother who does not let her kids out of her sight, I have always felt that the counselors were taking care of my kids better than I ever had.  I'm happy to tell you that there are no extra babysitting expenses as almost everything on the ship is all inclusive.  You can drop the kids off at their club and go off to enjoy an art auction, a cooking class, the spa or even a much deserved nap on deck (my favorite)!  Additional expenses that you may incur would be shore excursions, or a special meal at the adult only restaurant.  This meal is unbelievable and the charge really is minimal and worth every penny.  You will have the time of your lives!!!

Magic Kingdom still takes my breath away, but my favorite place to be is on a Disney ship looking at the horizon and breathing in that crisp, clean ocean air!  I love planning Disney vacations for others and making sure it's more than they dreamed. Learn More About Marisol
