Fireworks Cruises-Worth the $$$???

[First timer]

I've done the pontoon boats twice and the Grand Gathering Wishes cruise once. It's worth every penny! I just love being able to experience Wishes without people talking all around me through the whole thing, worrying if my dd can see or not, moving out of other's path as they walk out of the park in the middle of it, etc. Not to mention not having to fight the crowds after it's over! We just did one on Sept. 28th (the pontoon one, we actually had two boats for our group of 20). We did the premium cruise, which includes the music piped in, snacks and drinks. The cost was $275+tax. Without the music and snacks it's $250+tax. You can book them 90 days in advance, and they require a credit card guarantee. The card will not be charged until you get there, or, if you're splitting it, you can pay your half at the marina. (Our group split it and just paid the drivers when we got to the dock). Hope that helps!

Hi KIRSTIN'S MOMMY! Is 90 days the earliest they allow you to book a cruise?

Unfortunately, yes, for the pontoon boat ones. If you're doing the Grand Gatherings one you can do it at the 180 day mark with your ADR's, unless that's changed recently.

Yes, it would be for one of the pontoons - just my family and I to see the fireworks in Epcot.

Thanks for the reply.
