Hi there, Kim!
Congratulations on your very first trip to Walt Disney World with the whole family!
Your kiddos are at a great age to really enjoy the
Pirates & Pals Fireworks Voyage. I went on this swashbuckling voyage last year with my family and we had such a blast! The fun starts in one of the ballrooms at Disney's Contemporary Resort. When we went, there were all kinds of great snacks served such as fresh fruit, Mickey Ice Cream Bars, frozen fruit bars, individual bags of popcorn/pretzels and even a special cake. There were also beverages to enjoy with the snacks. You're encouraged to take snacks with you for the voyage as well. You'll also be visited by some "Pirates" before you set sail and there will be some great photo opportunities!
The boat ride itself is really entertaining too. The captain really gets to know his "crew" with games and stories and will ensure that a great time is had by all. He'll make sure that he stops the boat in a perfect place to view Wishes nighttime spectacular fireworks. He will also pull up where you'll have a great view of the
Electrical Water Pageant. It's fun to see it so close up. I absolutely love watching both of these great nighttime shows from the water!
I sure hope this helps with your decision, Kim. I think your family will have tons of fun!
Thanks for stopping by and please don't hesitate to write back in if we can help with any other questions you have.
Wishing you and your family a Pixie Dusted vacation!
