In 2001, we did a MK Cruise (pre-Wishes). The cost was $120 and we liked it
a lot. In 2005, we did the Illuminations Cruise. The cost was $125 and we
also liked it a lot. Right around that time, the cost jumped significantly
and is now around $250-275.
FWIW, I preferred the Illuminations Cruise. It gave a clear, unobstructed
view of the globe and fireworks. I felt we could also hear the audio better
as well although I'm not sure why (maybe just the fact that no one was
around me talking). My personal feeling is that Wishes is better viewed from
Main Street but... you really can't go wrong with either. |
