We got the "audio version" allowing us to have the Main Street music on board, as well as the "Wishes" audio, which was great because we could actually hear it, rather than the hustle and bustle of the crowds. We also got right up close to the Electric Water pageant and the sound was great, the music bounced off of the water. Eventually the driver brings you across to the Seven Seas lagoon, and the boat sits in front of MK, where you have a view of the train station, the castle, and the fireworks beyond. After the show is over, you are brought back to the Contemporary dock and head out on your way. NO CROWDS. We loved this cruise, and can't beleive we hadn't done it before! Its now a "must do" for us.
