Disney Wish Cruise Ship Tour, Photos

The Wish began sailing in July 2022. The 1,119-foot ship has 15 decks and can carry 4,000 passengers at a time.

It’s significantly longer and wider than the Disney Magic, which measures 984 feet long and can carry 2,713 passengers.

It will only be topped by the Disney Adventure, which will set sail for the first time in December.

My first cruise experience was a three-day cruise on the Wish in September 2022. I was immediately blown away by how massive the ship was.

When you first step onto the ship, you’re ushered into the Grand Hall on deck three.

It has gem-encrusted banisters, a winding staircase, a stage for performances, and a balcony where you can find princesses greeting passengers.

The location was inspired by Cinderella’s song “Oh, Sing Sweet Nightingale.” Visitors can listen to live music and order bubble-themed drinks.

The space-inspired bar is open to all travelers during the day, but becomes an adult-exclusive spot after 9 p.m.

Inspired by “The Princess and the Frog,” the bar is the ultimate place to listen to live music, order beignets, and enjoy special drinks.

The various shops sell handbags, diamond jewelry, and other luxury items.

You stand on princess-themed carpets outside, and then enter to find gold-flaked mirrors and marble floors.

On the Wish, that includes productions of “The Little Mermaid” and “Aladdin.” You can’t take photos during the shows, but they’re both visually stunning and fun to attend.

During my trip, each bucket cost $3. You could also buy a popcorn bucket for a higher price and get cheaper refills.

The location is inspired by Disney animation and the start of the Walt Disney Company. Inside, you’ll find character sketches, movie props, and more.

There was usually a long line during my trip, but it moved quickly.

The tiny coffee spot is subtly inspired by “Pinocchio” both in name and decor.

There, children can get makeovers to look like princesses, princes, or ship captains.

The lounge offers family-friendly activities during the day and games like bingo for adults at night. We also attended an adults-only silent disco there, which was a highlight of our trip.

One theater is inspired by “Alice in Wonderland,” and the other is “Peter Pan”-themed.

Called Worlds of Marvel, the interactive spot offers food from Marvel movies, an appearance from Ant-Man, and more unique experiences.

It’s set up exactly like the Wishing Star Café, but with a “The Sword in the Stone” theme.

During both of my trips on board the Wish, I found clothes, children’s toys, collectible pins, toiletries, and holiday merchandise, among other products.

The nautical bar was created with so many fun details, like Disney-themed maps on the ceilings and wood-carved portholes.

The space looks exactly like the setting of the beloved movie, and fan-favorite characters like Elsa sing as you dine. Between the food and entertainment, it’s my favorite restaurant on board.

I stayed in the least expensive room, which cost $2,707.52 and had no window.

It had a lifted queen bed, pullout couch, closet, vanity, and TV, among other amenities. I loved the small space.

It had a decent-sized tub, brightly lit walls, and a good amount of shelf space.

Each floor had pieces from different movies, like “The Princess and the Frog” and “The Little Mermaid.”

During a walking tour of the ship, an employee said more than 4,000 pieces from artists around the world were on board.

Fair warning, though, the pools were always crowded when I visited. I never went in, but they did look fun.

I often found people watching Disney movies while lounging in the nearby pools.

At its various food stands, you could get everything from personal pizzas to barbecue — all included in your trip fare.

There, you can buy pastries, ice cream, and some candy. I indulged in all of the above and thought they were all delicious.

There were more food options here, but the hours were more limited, so I only ate at Marceline Market once each trip.

Though you can see them from the lower level, they’re technically on a different deck. These tiny pools were often crowded during open hours.

The indoor spot offers an inflatable, “Incredibles”-themed obstacle course multiple times per day. Children and adults can partake.

I can tell you from experience, the course is more intense than it looks.

It offers stunning ocean views during the day and a cozy, romantic vibe at night.

The attraction is Disney’s first theme park ride on a cruise ship. It’s a quick ride, but lots of fun.

There was a lot of private seating in this section, so my sister and I enjoyed a drink here away from children and families on board.

The lowest level is home to the health clinic, and the second has a nursery and children’s club, which you can access by stairs or slide.

The 15th deck, on the other hand, is reserved for those who book the luxury Tower Suite, which can cost upward of $30,000 per trip.

After spending three days on board, you might just feel like you want three more to experience everything.
