First Time Cruiser • Age 30s

This Cruise was the 1st for our family. Its was better than the best. We live in Amarillo, TX and drove to Houston the day before, did some shopping then headed to the port on the day of the Cruise. Getting to the ship was very easy and embarkation was very easy and quick. It was a very well done process. As you enter the ship they announce your name and that was such an awesome feeling. When we ...

We have a great love of the world Walt Disney built and after our Walt Disney World visit a few years back, couldn't wait to travel aboard the Magic. Our first Disney cruise exceeded expectations. The Broadway style shows were fantastic and of course the Disney characters and personality that the ship exudes lived up to everything we expect in a Disny experience. The only bad or sad thing I can ...

This trip contained many 'firsts' for our family. It was our first vacation as a multi-generation family, our first cruise, our first time to another country, and the first time we tried so many different foods! So you will all have a better picture, I'll provide some family background. My son is 7 and Autistic. He is severely verbally delayed and does struggle with some sensory issues. He ...

Our eight day cruise on the Disney magic consisted of my self and my husband, both in our mid-50s, no children. We are both huge Disney fans and had been wanting to try a Disney cruise, so when it came to our home port of Galveston and they had an itinerary to Disneyworld plus private island, we decided to book. We were slightly apprehensive as we were not bringing children, and had heard that ...

Great Family Vacation on Disney Magic

My review is written from the perspective of a family traveling with with fairly young children. My son is 4, and my daughter turned 2 during the cruise and is still in diapers. In hindsight, I can easily see how parents of older children have a totally different experience. We live in Houston, so we made the 60 minute drive down to Galveston and parked at an off-site lot. We had plenty of ...

First, let me say that I LOVED my Disney Cruise and would go back again without hesitation. Having said that, here are some things I wish I had known. I did not enjoy leaving from Galveston in January. Too little to do, no shopping (and I needed some things like sandals that aren't readily available in my area in January) and too cool. Our cruise was extremely late due to the port being ...

This was our first Disney cruise experience and we enjoyed every aspect of the cruise. We took advantage of the kids sail free since Disney cruises are usually expensive and we have a large family. The cruise ship itself is older and needs some updates, however, the boat is very clean. The crew really tries to accommodate everyone needs. Overall, I would rate the food quality very high! I have ...

We took the Disney Magic 7 night cruise out of Galveston this past December, and we had an absolute blast! This was our 2nd time on a Disney cruise. The 1st time was for only 3 nights out of Port Canaveral, and we've been shopping around trying to get a good deal on a 7 night since then. Well, it finally happened at the end of last year, when Disney was introducing itself to Galveston. We were ...

First Time Cruiser • Age 70s

We booked this family cruise last year with only about 2 months to go! I was in sore need of a vacation and the price was very attractive, even received a balcony upgrade! We thoroughly enjoyed this cruise. My daughter and granddaughter shared an inside room across from me & Hubby. I loved this cruise so much that I booked the same time this year. We live in central Texas, so it is very convenient ...

First Time Cruiser • Age 70s

My first cruise on Disney Magic last December has left me with wonderful memories. I would never even have considered such a vacation if it hadn't been for the reviews I read on this site. We live in Weatherford, Texas, so it was about a 5 hour drive to our port of Galveston. We parked our car at Boi Valet (as per recommendations on this board) for about $65. It was so easy....I dropped ...
