PIRATES AND PALS FIREWORKS VOYAGE
If you’re a fan of Peter Pan and friends, this is the experience or you! On the Pirates and Pals Fireworks Voyage, you’ll meet Captain Hook and Mr. Smee, first of all as you enjoy ice creams and treats, drinks [including pirate punch – passionfruit, guava and orange juice] and snacks whilst posing for photos! Then, led by your pirate host Patch, you’ll embark on your voyage, setting sail across the Seven Seas Lagoon for the Happily Ever After fireworks, singing sea shanties and being quizzed on all things Disney pirate – and when you return, Peter Pan will be there to help you set food on dry land and avoid bumping into the old codfish again!
Jensen and Gav were given Pirate Bandanas, and won hooks [we think, we’re having a hard time remembering] during Disney trivia quizzes whilst onboard the voyage. It was one of the highlights of our trip. There were pirates to post with an pirate decor of all kinds!

POINTS TO NOTE ABOUT THE VOYAGE EXPERIENCE
You don’t have to dress as a pirate – but you can, and it only adds to the fun!
The food was tasty, but nothing particularly Disney themed [except the frozen treats].
Jensen actually fell asleep on the voyage, because it was dark and the boat lulled him along to sleep!
Up to 60 people are on the boat – it’s a big boat!
Fireworks may differ if it’s a seasonal occasion such as Halloween or Christmas.
It’s unfortunate that all these experiences are so expensive. If as you say there are 60 people, assuming half “adults” over 10 yrs and half under 10, then for each experience disney rake in $4500 for a couple of hours of staff time and some food.
