No its not a dining cruise. There are just snacks but you can also, I think, get a cake for celebration. Things changed for cruises after October 1st and I can't remember if they discontinued the cake or not.

Check on the theme parks board under the title Illuminations cruise. That gives all the information on both and there is a link in there as well.

You can order just about anything to have on the boat from Room Service at the resort the boat is dispatched from, but aside from snacks, sandwiches and some finger food, the boat and tables are not well suited for a full sit-down dinner.

We took a Wishes cruise two weeks ago and I was glad I hadn't ordered food. It would have somewhat awkward given the configuration of the boat. Instead we went to dinner at Le Cellier and then took the monorail over to GF in time for the cruise.

BTW to all those who were wondering - we did have music piped in our boat. The cruise was great.

We did a Wishes cruise in May - a birthday cruise with decorations and cake. We all loved it - adults and kids. We were pleasantly surprised that the music was piped in. Great time!

Is this the type of boat that the Wishes cruise is on??

I am booked for September. It was $140 leaving from GF. I was thinking of one of those flat boats (pontoon?) that they have over at Epcot.

No it is on a pontoon type boat. Just got home (back top the villa) a short time ago after a Wishes cruise (Thank you yoopermom and family who we shared the cruise with!!!!) It was a very smooth cruise and well worth every penny. I would do this again in an instant!!! Great view of water pagent, nicely nararated trip and we enjoyed the piped in music on the boat - which I understand is new- making it even more enjoyable.

Thanks so much for the info.

I am SO looking forward to this, now. It is a surprise for my wife and kids. We are eating dinner at Narcoosee's that night (5:30pm), then I have the cruise set for 7:30pm for an 8:00pm Wishes display. I didn't even think about the water pagent that happens afterwards....we saw that in 01/04 when we stayed at Poly. That will be an extra bonus to the show!
