HAS ANYONE DONE THE WISHES CRUISE? I HAVE IT BOOKED FOR OUR UPCOMING TRIP WITH 3 /7YR OLDS A 3YR OLD AND A 2YR OLD
WILL THEY ENJOY IT?

Just did a WISHES cruise last week with a four and seven year old who loved it!

We did it Jan 1, 2004 for dd's 7th birthday. We also had a 3, 5, 6, and 8 year old with us. They loved it! We have one scheduled for our April trip, too. I really liked the view better from the boat than from MK. The only downside is you can't really hear the music. We had Shannon for our captain, she was really great.

We have a Wishes Cruise scheduled for May and will have 3 children on board ages 4-7.

My 4 yr old DD got in a boat and the boat show the other day and said she was taking us to fireworks at WDW.


ducklite,

Did they have the Wishes music playing on the Grand One?

 

[ducklite]

No but you hear it drifting over the water just fine

We have one scheduled for March 12 through magic gatherings. They told us the music is piped onto the boat. Can anyone confirm.

 

[ducklite]

Kathy, are you on the Grand One or a pontoon boat?

Anne

We booked one the options through magic gatherings. It seems different then when you book your own boat. We will have a character greeting at the CR before launching. Is this different then the cruises being mentioned in this tread?

 

[ducklite]

That's the pontton boat, and they might have the music piped in, not sure. You don't really need it piped in though, you can hear it clearly over the water.

Thanks Anne for the info and I must say with a view like that how will you every stop vacationing.LOL

Sorry for the confusion.

The cruise I was talking about is on the Grand One. Disney's yacht that is docked at the GF.

There is also a Grand Gathering's Fireworks Voyage which is the one with Peter Pan.

There are also pontoon boats that you can rent for a Wishes Cruise.

The Grand Gathering cruise sounds very nice and I have heard good things about it.

The only downside is you can't really hear the music.

I was wondering that. Thanks for the info.
