Tip for Wishes cruise?

[Crazy4Disney72]

For those who have done the Wishes or Illuminations cruises, how much did you tip your driver? We are doing the Wishes celebration cruise for my DD's birthday on Monday. We will have 10 people on the boat and I have ordered a cake, if that makes any difference. Thanks!!

We did an Illuminations Cruise 5 years ago now. At that time we tipped the driver $20. The cruise cost was significantly lower than it now is.

We tipped $25 last July.

We shared with two other families at Thanksgiving. Each family contributed $10, so the tip ended up being $30. That was after the price change for the cruise. We will be doing the cruise again this summer with just our family, so I guess it will be around the $30 mark.

I'm eager to hear too. We're taking the Wishes cruise next month and would like to know.

We did the birthday cruise last June and enjoyed it soooo much. The cake was the best cake I have ever eaten. There were balloons all over the boat and a big banner saying "Happy Birthday". The tip is included but our driver was great. We gave $20. Enjoy the cruise. We felt is was well worth the money.

the tip is included in the price?

It was included in our price last year. At least that is what the cast member said when I booked it. We still tipped extra because the "captain" we had was SUPER!!!

There is no tip included in the price of the cruise.

Maybe this changed this from last year. I do remember last year the tip was included and I was told that. It can't hurt to confirm with the CM on this.
