Well, now I'm really torn as to which one to use. We're going 11/26-12/5 and I've booked both of them but was going to cancel the Wishes because you can't see Tink. My daughter will be crushed if we see Wishes without Tink! I may just do both...not a bad thing I guess.

Can ANYONE tell me if Wishes is shown every night in December ??
I'm just so afraid that now I have the cruise....there will be no fireworks!

I can't imagine that they would actually BOOK the cruise without knowing in advance when Wishes is being shown.

I'm pretty sure Wishes is everynight but not 100% positive.

Thank -you

My family and I took my mom on the Wishes cruise in July for her birthday. We loved it, well worth the money. To me its better than the Illuminations cruise because they park you under the bridge from United Kingdom to France. For Wishes we were dead center with the castle, and i must say we saw the show in a way unimaginable. You see things you never knew existed in Wishes.

I have one word of warning, ask the CM on the phone how many people the boat will hold, and then tell them you have that many people. We were only 8 people, and reserved a boat for 12. Once we got to the Poly marina we were put on a smaller boat because another party showed up with more people than on there reservation. Our driver even told us we got kicked out of a really good boat to go on one slower and older. So just a word of warning, but i must say worth every single pennie.

FYI for the poster wanting a Wishes cruise for Christmas night.---

I know that 4th of July and New Years ( being big fireworks nights) are charged a higher rate. I am not sure about Christmas. It may be worth it to give them a call and ask about Christmas. I would hate for you to get all the way through your booking process and then be hit with serious sticker shock. for the 4th of July cruise it was $350 for the first 4 people and $50 per head after that. They served cheese and crackers, sandwiches, fruit, cookies and champagne. Worth the experience, but very very expensive.

We did a Wishes cruise in June. We were picked up at the Contemporary about 45 minutes before Wishes started. We toured around the lake, going to the different resorts to look around. The kids got to drive the boat a little and had a good time. We had 8 people in our group and had plenty of room on the boat. I can remember hearing some of the music but it didn't bother me not to hear it. The fireworks were just as good. We could see Tink fly but it was more of a green blob. It was great to just sit and rock with the waves and enjoy the fireworks both in the sky and reflected off the lake. We are def. doing it again next June.
