    Disney Cruise Bucket List (2022)

    Last updated on Jan 5, 2022 by Adam Bryan. This post may contain affiliate links.

    Disney Cruises are jam packed with amazing things to do as well as incredible foods that it’s pretty easy to miss some awesome experiences during your sailing.

    Well to help you make the most of your next (or first ever) Disney Cruise, here’s a list of 50 things you must do or try on your next sailing.

    From fun cruise events and shows, to experiencing incredible culinary options, or even renting a cabana on Disney’s Castaway Cay, this bucket list will ensure that you will leave your cruise without feeling like you missed out on something.

    Just note that most of these bucket list items can be experienced on every Disney Cruise, regardless of itinerary, while just a handful are location specific.

    So with that being said, here’s my ultimate Disney Cruise checklist.

      Hey, Adam. After 15 years I’m going on a 7 day Disney Cruise on the Fantasy(my first time). Can cast members get a discount for the Rainforest Room?
