Try a search for "Wishes Cruise" lots of recent discussion.

(Bottom line, people seem to really enjoy them.)

I believe you can arrange for a Pick up/ drop off at any MK resort (or MK itself).

WE are taking the Wishes cruise from the Contemporary resort. We are staying there so it will be very convenient.

I haven't been on it yet, but I am looking forward to it!
Everybody says it is great!!!

We have done Wishes twice, leaving from the Poly both times. Where you depart from depends on availability. Our cast member took us on a tour of the Seven Seas lagoon and added trivia and info. It was really amazing just for the boat ride. There is actually a section of the lagoon that has a 4 lane highway going directly underneath it. I wouldn't have believed that unless I saw it- pretty awesome. You can see the Electric Light Parade which my kids (and me) love. It's such a wonderful thing to do I highly recommend it. The first time was DH's birthday so we spent the extra $$ and got a cake and balloons. The driver made DH a crown and the kids balloon animals. If you can book one I would do it! Without the birthday hoopla I think we paid $150. plus a tip for the driver. That is on the boat that can accomodate up to 10 or 11 people. If you split it with other people it isn't that expensive.

We did the Wishes Cruise last June and loved it. We met up with friends and it was their daughter's birthday so she paid the extra for the balloons and cake (by the way the best cake I had ever eaten). It was a wonderful and we would do it again. We took our from the Contemporary. Had a great captain who was informative and yet funny with the "corny" jokes . The kids didn't get them but the adults did.
