Sailing on the Dream (First time tips)

[EddieK76]

So our first sailing was on the Wish in September and we loved it so much we instantly fell in love with cruising; however, so many people on our cruise kept saying "You need to go on the Dream". Tell me all about the Dream..What to expect? What should we do? Tips? We sail in 51 days and we are bringing our 18 year old daughter and 15 year old son this time.

Definitely do midship detective agency. It's a lot of fun and if you do it on day one it'll help you learn your way around the ship. Rainforest room is great, either day pass or the whole trip. 687 is my favorite lounge on any Disney ship, and they do a cool presentation some days about the construction of the ship.

I don’t think it’s all that different in terms of the experience—both have similar experiences with characters, trivia/games, rotational dining in well themed MDRs, and broadway style shows. Changes are mostly ship layout and aesthetics. The dream’s adult area will be nice to enjoy with your daughter. The pool is larger and there are two hot tubs. The beauty and the beast show is excellent. Enjoy!
