Disney's Pirate Adventure for kids

[fernsmommy]

I didn't know where to post this so I'm sorry if its in the wrong place. I just got an email about this for our upcoming trip and was wondering if anyone else has had their children do this? I know they have to be between the ages of 4-12 but do the parents go along and how much does it cost?

Is this what you're talking about? If so, parents do not go along. Most folks have said their kids greatly enjoyed it!

My DD 5 just did this on 4/26/10 at the Yacht Club Marina -- the Albatross Treasure Cruise. Parents do not go, life vests are provided and required. She had a wonderful time and can't stop talking about it!! The cruise started at 9:30 and we had to be back at 11:30am to pick her up. You needed to arrive at 9:15 to pay, sign a waiver, get a pager (if they needed you back in a hurry) and drop the child off. Very easy and well worth it!

Yep, that's it! Thanks for the info! I just booked an adventure for her for May 11! She's gonna have so much fun!

DS participated in the Pirate Adventure from GF twice (ages 6 & 7) and the Albatross Treasure Cruise from the YC/BC marina once (age 8). Each time he enjoyed himself immensely, made new friends & came home with some fun "pirate booty". Each of the CMs are very capable & we always felt safe leaving DS in their hands for a few hours.
