Magical Gathering Questions

[Nickymouse]

I am considering this for our group this Nov. How far in advance does this book? We are considering either the Safari or the Fireworks Voyage. The Safari seems pretty straightforward but I have some questions about the Fireworks voyage. What kind of snacks are provided before the voyage? Is there more than one boat and how many people do they accomodate? Do Captain Hook and Smee come on the boat or are they just at the dock? Are magical gatherings offered every night or only certain nights of the week? I am going in Nov. and I'm not even sure if I'm too late to book this. Any info. would be appreciated.

You can probably find it on this site, it was either 90 days or 60. We did the Fireworks Voyage last year. There were two groups, Cpt Hook and Smees. CM's hand you and envelope with a pass for each group. You go into a little side area on the first floor of the Contemporary. They had tables set up with drinks and tables in the middle of the room with small pastries and cookies, similar to the ones at dessert from Chef Mickey's. Then Mr Smee and Captain hook come out for a meet and greet. After that is over, they escort you out to your boat, there are two. There you meet your Pirate. He plays games with you and asks trivia questions. You also get to see the Electric Water Pageant if it's running that night. The music is piped in so you can hear it during Wishes. After it's over Peter Pan is waiting for you at the dock for pictures and autographs. It was fun, everyone in our group enjoyed it. You can call the Grand Gatherings and they'll let you know when they are running for your time period. It only runs a couple of times a week. When you book, they add it to your vacation payment , so you don't have to worry about leaving a deposit. Call tonight and find out! Have a great time.
If I was ever to do one again, I might choose the Safari after eating at Boma.
