Magic Kingdom Fireworks Cruise

[sherry8253]

All I ever see posted is about the Illuminations cruises in Epcot. Has anyone ever gone on a MK fireworks cruise? And if so, it is worth it? Thanks!

We did the "Magical Gatherings Fireworks Voyage" in August, and I can tell you, that was the best thing we planned all week! It was our first time seeing "Wishes" and we had the best seats in the house!

I booked one for a surprise and the boat never showed up! This was on 10/22. Finally someone took pity on us got someone to take us out. They had taken my credit card info but then said they wouldn't charge me. They better not, you can bet I will be checking that bill when it comes in. We got to the fireworks right as they started, went right back to the dock as soon as they were over, and the cm never even said anything to us-information, jokes, etc. I always feel guilty so I still gave her a $20 tip, even though she didn't really want to take us out and only did it because she was told to. Had we gotten the whole cruise I think I would have loved it. The fireworks were spectacular, wish we could have heard more. We did Illuminations a few nights later and had a fantastic cm, Ron. Made the trip magical!

We went almost 2 years ago in December. The cruise around BayLake was wonderful. So quiet and peaceful with the stars out. We had a great view of the fireworks and could here the music just fine. Our CM was great and she and our 2 teens had a fun time. She didn't even want to take her tip afterward. Said she had enjoyed it too. It was a great suprise for my DH's birthday and we would do it again.
