Creator's Key Takeaways

the thing that booking through Disney gets you is basically insurance

if you book the port adventure through Disney and the port adventurer does not get you back to the port before the ship leaves port you booked through Disney the ship will either wait for you or Disney will get you to the next port at no cost to you

if you book a port event or through a third party you've been absolutely no insurance

there is a reason that Disney port adventures are priced higher and it's because they get you a insurance policy

Creator's Tips & Advice

Book port adventures through Disney for insurance against missing the ship
If booking through a third party, ensure you return to the ship before departure
Consider tour timing to avoid cutting it close to ship departure

YouTube Video Description

Super short video today, but I think it's important to understand why DCL port adventures may cost a little more than the same tour through a third party. Disney Cruise Line will also protect you against loss of funds if the ship is unable to make port. DCL will also ensure you have a good time on your port adventure, so if you book through Disney and don't enjoy your tour, speak up! Disney wants to hear what you have to say. Have a great time on a third party tour? Tell them that too! They're always looking for ways to enhance the guest experience. This channel is focused on making quality content for adults. However, we aim to always create family-friendly content that is safe for the entire family to watch together.
