Rob returns to the show with a wonderful deep dive into his family’s European sailing aboard the Disney Fantasy. We walk through his full itinerary from Barcelona to Italy and Sicily, and talk through what it’s like to cruise Europe with three kids and a nine-month-old in tow. From transportation mishaps to breathtaking port days to baby Sam’s first crawl aboard the ship, this is an honest and entertaining look at a port-intensive Mediterranean itinerary.
Rob shares highlights from:
• A long but beautiful Disney excursion to Cinque Terre from La Spezia
• A private tour in Rome — and the scam attempt he dodged just in time
• Pizza-making for kids in Naples, supported by a memorable crew member known as “Bubbles”
• A DIY beach-club day in Sicily that became one of the most relaxed port days of the trip
• Onboard moments including nursery time, Kids Club experiences, Royal Court Tea, Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutique, and an excellent Palo Brunch
We also discuss flying with an infant, booking adjoining rooms for a family of six, why a European itinerary can be ideal for families wanting to see a lot without changing hotels, and how this experience compared to Rob’s Caribbean sailing.
