Creator's Key Takeaways

the itinerary was six nights had three days at seas and then a stop at cosmel and then one at Costa Maya it departed on January 2nd

I was very impressed with the port our Port arrival time was 11:45 they lit Us in at 11:30 I was on the ship at noon and so yeah it was really really efficient fast

the highlight of all that for me is the Mayan kako company if for no other reason I have to get my chocolate Margarita when I go to cosmel

we did a lot more just relaxing on this Cruise than we've ever done before which included getting snacks through room service at the room and watching stuff there

Creator's Tips & Advice

βœ“Reserve parking in advance for Port of Galveston as lots can sell out
βœ“Use bug spray before excursions to Mayan Ruins due to bugs
βœ“Book excursions through Disney for convenience and return-to-ship guarantee

YouTube Video Description↓

Dennis joins us this week to share his family's experience sailing Disney Cruise Line on the Disney Magic out of Galveston to Mexico. We love covering Disney's port experiences outside of Port Canaveral, as these overlooked ports sometimes offer a really great option for those not on the East Coast, or looking for something a little bit more manageable than what Port Canaveral offers. Dennis also took some really interesting excursions to the Mayan Ruins and compared those excursions for us on the show. Dennis and his wife also sail with two teenage boys, and we wanted to hear how they think about staterooms, onboard activities, and whether DCL remains their preferred cruise line as a family. All that and more on this week's episode. Dennis is also the host of Podcast Stardust - a Star Wars focused podcast that is definitely worth a listen: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/podcast-stardust/id1484270010 If you like this video, please like and subscribe to our channel on YouTube.Β  You can also like and follow us on Facebook, Instagram and Twitter @DCLDuo.Β  Or subscribe to our Podcast available on Apple Podcast, Pocket Casts, Spotify and most other major podcast providers.Β  You can also email us at dclduo@gmail.com.
