We highly recommend this tour. We took our five-year old son and it was the highlight of our week long trip. The pirates were fabulous with him. The show was entertaining. The food was great. Drinks were plentiful. Time on the island was super. My husband played volleyball while our little guy participated in pirate games and a treasure hunt.... more

Fun entertainment, great food (get the mahi mahi), free drinks, and a beautiful view of the bay in light and dark. Fun for adults and teenagers, unless they are the kind of people who look for things to grumble about. The only downer was a couple drunk tourists. We will recommend this to everyone! more

This information might be helpful for those attempting to go on this cruise with children. We were booked on the pirate cruise on our one day stopover in Puerto Vallarta while we were on a weeklong Mexico cruise. My oldest son became very ill the night before and was not going to be able to go on the pirate cruise.... more

This was something we did at my husbands request. I was not sure I would enjoy this, but we had a fabulous time. The food was OK but the staff was very friendly. We felt very welcomed and appreciated.They never seemed to just focus on one person and really made everyone feel a part of the night. The fireworks towards... more

This excursion ended up being a pricey and disappointing evening for our family. Pros: The meal was better than I expected it would be. The employees work very hard and drink service is fast. The acrobatics and fireworks were good, although few. Historical performance was interesting. Great scenery from the ship. Cons: Very crowded bench seats, we were seated in... more

We did the Marigalante cruise on June 13th. A Friday the 13th horror movie came to life on this cruise! The cruise itself around the Bay of Banderas and the ship is beautiful. However, we were horrified by the raging bees on Las Majahuites Beach. The bees were so thick no one could enjoy themselves..we were literally stuck on bee... more

We took the morning tour since we had two boys (10 and 11). Everything started out okay, breakfast was alright, not the greatest. Then about thirty minutes into the tour , while the pirates are doing all of their skits, the power went out. We had to coast out in the ocean for approx. 30-45 minutes, very choppy water. Finally... more

Our group took the night tour after someone recommended that it is for adults only and will be like a floating nightclub. Not at all!!! The show was corny and cheesy. They attempted to make the show sexy and geared for adults, but their attempts were futile. We kept rolling our eyes and hoped for it to end. Even gulping... more

The entertainment was cheap and cheesy. The first half of the cruise consisted of tourist competition - highlights of which included 3 women singing La Cucaracha with ice cubes in their mouths, and later putting on ponchos and pretending to do a striptease. There was a good Aztec show with fire dancing, but this lasted only 15 minutes of the... more
