The pirate cruise was great! Took our 7 and 4 year olds. The crew did an excellent job engaging the kids for the entire trip. Definitely a fun thing to do for families.
I highly recommend! We took our 3 kids, ages 8 and 5, and they had a blast. The captain and crew made it fun for children of a wide variety of ages— and the adults!
I cannot say enough good things about this! We did it for my son's birthday (we had kids who ranged from ages 3-7) and every single kid (and parent) had an absolute blast.
Our son (5y) had the best time being a pirate for the morning! The cruise was very interactive with the kids defending the ship against a scallywag, swabbing the deck, and practicing their sword skills.
It was SO CUTE. My 4-year-old son LOVED IT! My husband and I also laughed all the way through. I got so many cute photos of him and he asked to be called his "pirate name" for days afterwards
This was great fun. My eldest grandson thought he was too big, but he said it was the best day. All smiles and two thumbs up!!!
Pirates of Charleston was fantastic! I brought my 5 year old son, 10 year old daughter and 13 year old daughter. They all had a blast! The crew was great at making sure everyone felt included.
This trip was amazing!!! Right from the start the pirates walk out and are in full character! We took our 6 year old and it was literally the perfect age!
