When our Blue Lagoon port adventure got cancelled, we shifted gears and visited Ardastra Gardens in Nassau, Bahamas on our own. While Disney normally offers this as an excursion, it was also cancelled on this Disney Wish stop, so we did it on our own and saved a considerable amount of money doing it that way as well! How we did it and our tips for you in this episode!
If you decide to do this one on YOUR own, you can get advance tickets and find out more about the park here. -
