The DCL Dude Podcast Wes Dauer

Alyssa and I were extremely fortunate to be invited by Disney Cruise Line on the 3-Night Preview Cruise to Lookout Cay aboard the Disney Magic. In this week's episode, we are recapping our entire cruise - start to finish! Tune in to hear about our embarkation day anxieties, Alyssa's experience on Lookout Cay, and a DCL bucket list item I was able to check off. Hope you enjoy!

For the first time, Disney Cruise Line has released TWO seasons of new itineraries at one time - fall 2025 and spring 2026! My guest on the show, Chris, and I will summarize the new schedules for you and highlight some of my favorite itineraries. We'll also mix in a few predictions.
Bookings begin next week (Monday, June 24) and are tiered based on Castaway Club status.
If you'd like to book one of these new cruises, send me an email: wes@mickeyworldtravel.com!

My wife and I had the chance to be among the first to visit Disney Cruise Line's new private destination in the Bahamas, Lookout Cay! We had a fun (but exhausting) day and in this week's episode, I am bringing you my initial thoughts now that I've had some time to digest. It's just me on the show this week, but I'll bring Alyssa on later to get her thoughts that will offer a different perspective. I hope you enjoy!

In this week's episode, my wife, Alyssa, joins me to discuss the top-5 onboard activities on a Disney cruse. We each had 5 unique activities, so you get a bonus 5 out of this episode! Keep in mind that there are LOTS of things to do onboard, most of which do not require reservations in advance. Keep an eye on your Daily Navigator for a list of upcoming activities and let us know what your favorites are!

I'm joined this week by my friend, Lisa, who recently sailed back-to-back 15- and 10-night cruises aboard the Disney Wonder! Her journey began in Sydney, Australia and brought her to various ports in the South Pacific on her way to Hawaii. On that cruise, she got to experience a 30-day February and cross the Equator! Once back in Hawaii, she and her husband, Dave, boarded the ship again to sail around Hawaii before eventually ending back in Vancouver. Come along for this epic Disney Cruise journey!
