We have been on a couple of Disney cruises and tried out Royal. People say the service and food on Disney is better. I would agree in general but the price difference is not worth the small step up in my opinion. Recently in planning our next cruise I compared concierge on wonder of the seas to a regular verandah room on Disney. For my family Disney was $3000 MORE! Concierge gives you coastal kitchen, priority boarding, free drinks from 5-8 every night and so much more. I will take concierge on RC over Disney especially when it’s $3000 less!!!! Disney is great but I can’t justify that kind of price difference.
not at all representative. massive premium to be the first guests on the new island. you can get the magic for 7 nights for 2 w a veranda and stops at both islands for $3500. free room service and free soda come with DCL. that trip up in the RCL ball costs extra.
Well soda on RCL runs about $9 a day so I guess you are saying adding $63 to the RCL fare with the RCL having a balcony and the Disney a porthole evens them out. First on the island? You mean the sand will be different if you go another time?????? It’s kind of like saying seeing a movie the weekend it ones out means if you see it a month later, the movie somehow has changed??? My view is I lived without it all these years, I can persevere a bit longer. Interestingly, I have a holiday sailing on symphony with six balcony cabins and the, category 2D with each cabin getting $175 innOBC except mine where we he rv$375 in OBC. The only cabin that comes code to the Disney price is the cabin with my son and z3 kids. As to room service, continental id free on RCL besides I’ve never used room service ever on a cruise. I’m always out and about. If I want room Service, I can put a tray on our bed, at home.
Hey guys, I really enjoyed watching the video. It was nice, but you had mentioned the price in the beginning and I think when I’m comparing a Disney versus Royal Caribbean, which is where I’m at now it comes down to the price so I would like to see a video where everything is upas far as all the stuff you have to pay for extra on a Disney cruise and all the stuff you’d have to pay for on a Caribbean cruise do you like the drink package versus free soda and then what’s the difference in price rooms?
Love all of your content. But, for me, you are the first cruise vloggers I ever watched. LOVED LOVED LOVED all of your early content. Basically, I like seeing you both choose dinner, do the silent disco, go on excursions. Those vlogs inspire me!
More vlogs please! Your vlogs don't drag on like other content creators. Fun, enjoyable, and straight to the point. But with that being said I wouldn't mind longer vlogs from your channel!
As for DCL, the pier is too long. It needs trams and shade. Overall, the beach doesn’t look ready! I’ll wait another year before sailing to Lookout Cay.
The Bahamas made Disney make a pier like that. The reef under it is protected so they had to build a long pier, and it had to be a certain way so it can’t handle the weight of trams.
Having sailed on both lines plus Carnival, I personally feel Disney is a little overrated. I have three boys that ranged from ages 10-16 when we were on the Wish last year. I think the food options and activities were lacking behind what Carnival and Royal offer. A lot of this I am sure had to do with the age of my boys. The quick bite type of food was more like park food to me on the Wish. However, we did enjoy the first run movies on the Wish and the Aladdin show was one of the best production shows we have seen at sea. But, the fares for Disney is ridiculous when you considered everything you get. What I paid last year for a four day balcony cabin on the Wish over the week of Thanksgiving is almost the same for a seven day infinite family room balcony cabin on the Star of the Seas which I booked earlier this year sailing during the week of Thanksgiving 2025.
I wish you guys would both talk on both cruises because you give such different kinds of information. Especially the husband gives less info than I would like. “I’m watching Frozen by the pool, back to you, Alyssa!” 😂 In general, I’m more interested in sweeping views of the scene around you and not just looking at your face while you talk about the food.
Disney has gotten way to expensive. Was on Disney before covid at it was awesome. Definitely at the top of thd list at that time. And at that point we had been on multiple ships with RCL and CARNIVAL. Now....its hard to afford with all the nickel and diming they are doing.
fully shattering that 4th wall on Disney was by far the best part and while it is wierd to know that the whole family went on both ships, I still enjoy the versus and the back and forth.
Curious. Are you guys sailing both ships together but filming as if solo to do these comparison vids or are you actually sailing solo? I wouldn’t want to sail without my other half 🥹. Thought I heard Griff talking in one of Alyssa’s video and looks like a crib in Griffs video. I’ve not sailed Disney yet but those churro Mickey waffles are calling me 😂. Ok pirate 🏴☠️ baby Noa. So you’re sailing together but filming together and independently for the comparison videos. Fabulous. In terms of the pier , just lead me to the accessible list. A 15-20 minute walk not for all. Thanks for sharing 🤗.
They're traveling as a family. In one of Alyssa's clips she has a sippy cup in her hand. It seems like a fun way to give us videos while they trade off vacationing vs filming at the same time. And Noa looks adorable on Pirate night.
@@renise011 I missed the sippy cup but heard Griff talking across the table. Thought I heard Noa once and when I saw the crib I knew and he confirmed. Thanks
Great informative and entertaining presentations by both of you, as always! Together or solo, you guys always rock! Great editing, cool lapel mikes, hardly noticeable and great fidelity. Love the comparison and Griff made me laugh out loud when he ad lib with things like the sudden spot light in his face during the Rapunzel show and the cheering and applause that occurred about the time his entree arrived! That was pretty darn funny and spontaneous! Over all, great job and love you guys and cameo appearance by Noa! Also, appreciate the "peek" behind the curtain on how you video the "solo" cruises! Safe travel! 😎😎😎
Love all your videos. Thanks for showing the prices for two different cruise lines. Thinking I will do the royal instead of Disney due to the significant of prices but thanks for the ride alone. Grandparents must have Noa?
1 ship is 10 years older then the other and the new disney island is barely open. this is a strange comparison given the Magic is loaded with characters an RCL cruiser doesn’t care / get. how much did a trip in the ball cost ? btw - you can book a 7 night on the Magic for two for both islands with a veranda for $3500.
Hmm, well I just did a side by side comparison of RC Icon vs Disney for January. A 7 night on Icon for my family of 7 with two surfside balcony rooms was $8661 and a 4 night on Disney with one ocean verandah and 1 inside stateroom was $7214. That’s $1237/night on RC vs $1803/night on Disney. Not even a close comparison in value. I’d rather spend another $1400 and get 3 additional nights and more ports of call for the $.
How is this even a fair comparison. You have chosen one of the newest RCL ships and literally the oldest DCL ship. Plus Lookout Cay only opened this month
What do you propose we compare it to? We compared Disney Wish to Virgin, that was fun! To be fair though Disney takes really good care of their ships , it was immaculate!
Fake Title...Disney is sailing out of port evergaldes in this video and Ovation is in Hawaii and they were both on the cruise because I was on that cruise and I saw them with Noah... So I'm guess they went on Disney after Ovation...VERY MISLEADING!
Hi there, Thanks for your comment and for watching our video! We really appreciate your engagement.

We had a lot of fun filming both cruises and wanted to share the highlights from each. It sounds like you may have missed some of the fun surprises and Easter eggs we included in the video that show us on both ships together 🛳️😄. We hope you take it lightheartedly as we're simply enjoying a family cruise vacation and sharing our experiences. Remember, our content is free to watch, and we're here to provide enjoyable and informative insights for fellow cruisers.

Ain't no way Alyssa let Griff go on Disney without her! HAHAHA
You may want to re-watch @16:46
@@pileofstuff I know they are together…that’s what the comment meant. 😂
I know they are traveling together on each to film the other and they aren’t leaving that precious Noah at home 🤗
Day two when he leaves his room in the morning for breakfast you see the pack-n-play that his kid must have slept in in front of the couch.
You can see his reflexion in her shower door on RC. Fake vids
I don't necessarily think it's a fake video they just feel differently on which company is better@@tom24aba
You can hear the baby in the background in one of the videos
@@Orphe1 I don’t think it matters. I just like the way they do it. I enjoy it.😍
The cutie Noa made you all break character..cute...nice to see the comparison
I like the comparison! I’m pretty sure you both weren’t traveling alone but I hope you both had a good time !
Vlogs!!!! This made me so happy that neither of you were separate! Best surprise of the video!!!
$3400 for no balcony certainly caught my attention. Pretty expensive just get a commode separated from the shower. Yikes.
my thoughts exactly!
it’s bullshit. you can get 7 nights w a veranda on the Magic for $3500.

The pier is way too long!!!
The Bahamas required Disney to do that. There’s a protected reef close to the shore.
You have both helped to solidify my "Loyal to Royal" mindset. Disney just doesn't work when you like to gamble and don't have children.
Thanks! We enjoy these "vs" videos! ...please do more Celebrity vs ???
How is it vs when theyre together?

LOL … I spent the first half yelling at the TV, “What kind of BS y’all tryin’ ta pull!?” 🤣
@@RobStevens64 IKR!!!!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣

The tell was Alyssa’s double bands. 😂
or Griff's shadow on her balcony LOL
Next one should be carnival vs Royal.

One built in 1998, one in 2015? Maybe compare the Magic against a 25+ year old Royal ship?

I know the room cost was higher on Disney, but what was the folio cost at the end for each?
LOVE this content concept 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Obviously channels have compared before but not in this way. Props to you guys for doing something new 💜
Big love
Have u tried Carnival vs Royal Caribbean?
I know Alyssa doesn’t care for carnival too much but I’d luv to see Griff do an Excel class ship!!!
Yes. Not a Disney fan if you're not at that stage of life anymore. Too much Mickey and Minnie for me😅😅
Love the Vlogs please continue to do them and I especially like when you do it like this it's very fun entertaining and adorable!
fully shattering that 4th wall on Disney was by far the best part and while it is wierd to know that the whole family went on both ships, I still enjoy the versus and the back and forth.
I'd say "the smaller, the better" when it comes to baked potatoes, but then again, I wouldn't order it to begin with.
I really enjoyed your vlogs❤

It’s the Donnellys were right behind Griff outside at Cabanas. So many creators on the Disney magic sailing.
Tell Griff to stop chatting when he’s filming you.

Noa❤
Love the comparison. Noa is such a cutie. Alyssa looks beautiful all dressed up for dinner.
Just found your channel and I'm loving it! Very fun to watch! Can't wait to watch more of your content 😊
I guess these comparison vlogs are doing well. I like the actual cruise vlogs better. I miss them but great work.
Thanks for reviewing Disney ships!!! We love the relaxing style of them and love your videos!!!

Love how you structured your videos. Love the content.

Creative comparison. Thanks❤
