Birnbaum’s Disney guides take to the high seas with this comprehensive look at the Disney Cruise Line and all the events, activities, and ports of call to sample aboard the Wonder and the Magic. In “Before You Sail,” receive advice on what to do and pack prior to your journey. Then get a deck-by-deck, cabin-by-cabin introduction to your vacation “home,” as well as personal dining tips, from midday snacks to gourmet dinners. Find out the characters’ favorite hangouts, and, for adults only—find out some of our little-known hideaways. The guide also includes a chapter on Ports of Call to help you decide which tours and shore excursions to take, plus a fun-filled guide to activities for kids of all ages—tots and teens and in-betweens. Additionally, we’ll show you where to massage your cares away, the best places to be after dark, how to celebrate in style whether you’re just married or renewing your vows, marking a special birthday or anniversary, or just rejoicing, and the secrets to planning a successful family reunion. This year’s edition includes stem-to-stern coverage of the Disney Magic and Disney Wonder, including new dining selections, deck parties, and stage shows. Readers will also get a sneak peek at Disney Cruise Line's two new ships: the Disney Dream and the Disney Fantasy. Other updates for 2011 cover the vastly-expanded "Land and Sea" package option, including pre- and post-cruise stays at Walt Disney World resorts, plus Barcelona and London. And as always, guests will find coverage of the methodically selected shore excursions deemed outstanding by Birnbaum editors.
