Ready to explore the best Disney Cruise Line excursions — from Europe to the Caribbean — through the eyes of a teen cruiser? 🌊 This week, Doug is joined by Alden McKnight (@ShotByAlden) to count down his Top 5 Disney Cruise Excursions — and even reveal one that didn't quite make the cut!

Best Disney Cruise Excursions Around the World — Ranked by a Teen!: On this week's Rope Drop On Deck, we're diving into the shore excursions that make Disney Cruise Line adventures unforgettable. Teen cruiser and photographer Alden McKnight joins Doug and Michelle to share his Top 5 Disney Cruise excursions from around the world — including adventures in Italy, Jamaica, the Cayman Islands, Alaska, and beyond.

From climbing Dunn's River Falls to whale watching in Alaska, Alden gives a first-hand look at what makes each port experience fun, unique, and totally worth booking. You'll also hear about his least favorite excursion (and why it missed the mark), plus tips for families planning their next adventure off the ship.

This episode also features the latest cruise news — including Royal Caribbean's Beach Club opening early, Norwegian Cruise Line going paperless, and Disney's new ship, the Destiny, officially delivered!

Whether you're planning your next port day or just love hearing about incredible Disney Cruise destinations, this episode is your guide to making the most of every stop along the way.

Plus, we've got an Apple Podcast review from AMCEOmaha the word of the day "jetsam" (thanks to Back To The Mouse).
