LOOKING for some family fun on the high seas? Instead of the usual casino-themed cruises, Malaysians can opt for Disney-themed adventures across the Causeway beginning next year. In 2025, Disney Cruise Line will launch the Disney Adventure from Singapore, marking its first homeport in Asia, offering families a holiday experience with three and four nights voyages.

Disney Cruise Line senior vice president and general manager Sharon Siskie said Disney Adventure will provide relaxation and fun, offering guests the opportunity to explore immersive areas inspired by Disney, Pixar and Marvel.

The Disney Adventure features seven themed areas that showcase Disney’s storytelling through imagination, discovery, fantasy and adventure. Guests will be welcomed by the Disney Imagination Garden, the heart of the ship. This space, inspired by Disney adventures, will serve as an enchanted garden and open-air performance venue.

Other themed areas include Disney Discovery Reef (an aquatic retreat), San Fransokyo Street (an entertainment area inspired by Big Hero 6) and Wayfinder Bay (a Pacific Islands-inspired oasis influenced by Moana). Guests will also get to explore Town Square (a celebration of Disney fairytales), Marvel Landing and Toy Story Place (an interactive play area).

The Disney Adventure will also feature dining, entertainment and guest service. Guests can indulge in imaginative restaurants, enjoy character encounters and be entertained by stage shows and first-run films. The ship’s staterooms will offer family-friendly conveniences such as Disney Cruise Line’s signature split-bath concept, ensuring an enjoyable stay.

Sailing from the Marina Bay Cruise Centre, the Disney Adventure will operate for at least five years in collaboration with the Singapore Tourism Board.
