Disney Cruise Line Named Best for Families By Cruise Critic
Exciting news! The 11th annual Cruise Critic Editors’ Picks Awards have been announced and Disney Cruise Line and Adventures by Disney are both winners! Cruise Critic® is the world’s leading cruise reviews site and online cruise community. These awards recognize the best cruise lines of the year across dozens of categories. The Cruise Critic’s international team of editors are in charge of choosing the winners.
“As the cruise industry continues to evolve, travelers are rewarded with extraordinary options and experiences,” explains Colleen McDaniel, Senior Executive Editor of Cruise Critic. “Cruising already is one of the most groundbreaking travel industries, and cruise lines continue to raise the bar when it comes to guest experience – both onboard and in port. This year’s list of winners includes cruise lines that visit every continent, offer technologies that provide an even more personalized travel experience and boast features like a high-tech planetarium, cabins with infinite verandahs and even an onboard silent disco. These are the absolute best experiences at sea, and what’s most exciting is that there’s even more to look forward to in 2019.”
Ocean Category
Disney Cruise Line was named Best for Families for the third year in a row, praised for its ability to entertain travelers of all ages, plus its special programs and features, including Marvel Day at Sea and Rapunzel’s Royal Table.
River Category
Adventures by Disney was named Best for Families. This is due to the purpose-built family cabins onboard the AmaWaterways’ ships they charter. It also includes the splash pool, family-friendly excursions, kids’ buffets and kids’ programming. The kid’s programming also allows for much-needed downtime for adults, too! One of the best aspects? Guides onboard to advise, plan and organize all the fun — always with family top of mind.
It’s also worth mentioning that AmaWaterways who partners with Disney for their river cruises was also named Best for Active Cruisers! The line that first put complimentary bikes onboard continues to find ways to make sailings active and healthy. AmaWaterways offers bike rides and hikes in every port. Wellness coaches who lead yoga, core and stretching classes will be on all river ships next year. And the double-sized AmaMagna, coming in 2019, will have a full-size fitness room, as well as a spa.
