For many adults, a Disney cruise means family time or, at the very least, being surrounded by other families. But when you cruise with Disney, bars and other adults-only spaces abound; with more than two dozen watering hole options across the fleet, you'll have no trouble finding some much-needed time for yourself while the brood is in bed or in one of the line's fabulous kids clubs.
So, if your little ones are yearning for a trip with Mickey but you just don't know if you can handle that much mouse in one week, don't despair. Take a deep breath, and mentally plan your very own pub crawl with our list of Disney cruise bars.
