River cruising offers an unparalleled travel experience, blending the ease of all-inclusive travel with intimate access to the world's most beautiful and historic regions. Like any unique travel experience, it can bring up a lot of questions. How long does a cruise typically last? What amenities can you expect on board? What's included in the price?
The Walt Disney World Swan Reserve is the perfect hotel if you're seeking luxury at a great value and want to be well-positioned to visit the Disney parks. It's also a fantastic place to stay before or after a cruise from Port Canaveral. In fact, my family stayed for one night at this recently-built, modern hotel prior to our cruise on the Disney Wish. We loved our spacious suite and the serene ambiance of the hotel (we never found it to be crowded).
If you want to live the grand life at the Disneyland Resort, then you need to stay club level at Disney's Grand Californian Hotel & Spa. My family did just that for six nights during spring break in 2022. We stayed in Room 6010, which is a premium view club level room.
After a long hiatus from "real" traveling due to the pandemic, this past spring my family enjoyed a luxurious weekend stay at the Montage Laguna Beach, a Forbes five-star resort. This Southern Californian hotel is located about halfway between Los Angeles and San Diego, perched atop a very scenic cliff above the Pacific Ocean. The location is dreamy and makes you feel like you are visiting the French or Italian Riviera. The vibe is laidback yet luxurious.
Wadi Rum: Valley of the Moon in English. There’s no place like it in the world – at least, in this world. You’ve probably visited Wadi Rum in the movies. It’s often the site of Mars on the big screen (The Martian, for example). It’s played Jedha in Star Wars: Rogue One, a desert in Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen, and, of course, itself in the epic Lawrence of Arabia. Even Disney has taken advantage of this epic landscape by filming Aladdin there.
