Summary

Vicky joins us to share her family’s incredible 7-night Disney Fantasy European cruise. Sailing out of Barcelona, this Italy-heavy itinerary included Palermo, Naples (with a visit to Pompeii), Florence, and Rome—plus pre- and post-cruise days in Barcelona and Paris. Vicky talks through the planning process, excursions, food highlights (think gelato, pizza, carbonara, and pistachio cannoli), and why sailing Disney made Europe more enjoyable for her kids. She also reviews her onboard experiences, including the Remy Dessert Experience, Palo dinner, drink tastings, kids clubs, and Disney entertainment. Listen as Vicky explains why the Disney premium was worth it for a family-friendly European adventure and shares tips for making the most of port-intensive sailings.
