In this episode of Disney Hour Express, hosts Abbie and Rob catch up with returning guest Tink, who shares her recent experiences aboard the Disney Fantasy cruise and her visit to Universal Orlando’s new Epic Universe theme park. Tink starts by detailing her time on the Disney Fantasy, including a standout dinner at Remy, and a laid-back visit to Castaway Cay, Disney’s private island. She discusses what sets the ship apart, from the dining quality to the mix of entertainment options for all ages.
The episode then shifts to a preview of Epic Universe, with a focus on the attractions inside Super Nintendo World, such as the Mario-themed rides, and the eerie atmosphere of the Dark Universe area. Tink also shares her take on the new Wizarding World of Harry Potter section, noting how it builds on the immersive detail fans have come to expect. The hosts break down how the virtual queue system works, the range of dining choices inside the park, and what visitors should know ahead of time. They also discuss Celestial Park and its potential for unique nighttime experiences.
Throughout the episode, Abbie, Rob, and Tink offer grounded, practical advice and firsthand observations to help families and theme park fans plan their next trip. Instead of hype, they focus on what actually works—and what might not—at both Disney and Universal’s latest offerings.
