Updated Pirate Ship New Year’s Eve review
Updated review of Pirate Ship evening cruise New Year’s 2025/ 2026. Communication from booking agency became a problem. Weeks before New Year I booked, received confirmation (!), Tickets received later ( normal location and timing) with instruction to contact booking company, the response: “There will be no pirate ship at the end of the year, as it is a special event. Your reservation is confirmed!” (???) They changed departure time, so 1 of our party was not able to go, I requested refund 36 hours before new departure time. Original timing was to be completed at 9:30 PM, we had made plans for after. Myself and date continued with new timing, arriving at terminal we found long lineups, went through security, boarding passes taken, and were taken to a different boat. A typical booze cruise boat. They had obviously heavily overbooked, in their credit supplied 2 extra boats but if I had wanted to, that is what I would have booked. The booking company had said I was not within 24 hours so not entitled to the 1 refund, but would make an exception (actually 36 hours). The communication was not allowing me to understand their attempt to help, I would have cancelled all. I HAVE TAKEN THIS CRUISE BEFORE, IT IS EXCELLENT, I WANTED NO LESS but this was embarrassing me for my date.
Response from the operator: This review is for a different company, not us We don't offer any New Years dinner nor any special event, it's just closed. We don't have any "booze cruise boat" Please remove this review as it does not have anything to do with us

AHOY!!
Amazing! We did the night dinner and literally all the pirates were exceptional, but our pirate “Ruly” was phenomenal. The show, the drinks, the service. And the band was so well synchronized, there are not enough words to define how great it was. Would say the night cruise is more geared for adults so if you have little ones maybe the day cruise is the better choice.
Response from the operator: The pirates goal is for everyone to have fun and live an unique experience! We are happy that you had a great time with the staff We'll keep improving to welcome you again on your next adventure

Best ever!
Best ever! I had a personal pirate, Alligator. He’s the best. Great meal and everything was perfectly entertaining. Where else can you dance with a pirate?
Response from the operator: Thank you! We truly appreciate your kind comments Our staff will always make the experience as special as possible

Fun and exciting trip
Overall are experience on this expedition was a five. It would been a five plus had there not been annoying guests, yelling and screaming in our ears. The entertainment provided by the pirates was pretty awesome. Our personal pirate Alvin was very attentive. Always made sure we had a drink and made sure we were taken care of. I had the ribs and my husband had the filet mignon. The dinner was okay. A little overcooked for both of us. The show after dinner was pretty awesome, especially with the fireworks. We would definitely do this again and hope that we don't have annoying people around us speaking out during the show which was multiple times and very rude. At the end as we were all finishing up they brought around the picture that they took when you first stepped aboard which was 300 pesos. The photo was nice and worth the 300 pesos . They also were trying to get tips for your personal pirate and for the other pirates on the board as you're leaving the ship. Overall, this was a great experience and would definitely do again.
Response from the operator: Thank you so much for letting us share this experience with you, we apprecite your detailed review of the experience Thank you for the support, we hope to see you again soon!

Why this scores 57
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Night Cruise at Puerto Vallarta, Pirate Show & Dinner!: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Puerto Vallarta.
How much does Night Cruise at Puerto Vallarta, Pirate Show & Dinner! cost?
+
Prices start at $128 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Puerto Vallarta usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Night Cruise at Puerto Vallarta, Pirate Show & Dinner! take?
+
Plan for about 4 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Puerto Vallarta is not rushed.
Is Night Cruise at Puerto Vallarta, Pirate Show & Dinner! worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 57 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.4/5 across 5 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Puerto Vallarta, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Night Cruise at Puerto Vallarta, Pirate Show & Dinner!?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Night Cruise at Puerto Vallarta, Pirate Show & Dinner! suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 4-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Night Cruise at Puerto Vallarta, Pirate Show & Dinner!?
+
Around 2 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Puerto Vallarta can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Puerto Vallarta and add a light layer if any part of the 4-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Night Cruise at Puerto Vallarta, Pirate Show & Dinner! start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Puerto Vallarta within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Puerto Vallarta?
+
On Outty we rank every Puerto Vallarta experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Winner 2026 Downtown Vallarta Food Tour with Vallarta Food Tours, Signature Taco Tour in PV with Vallarta Eats, Food & Mixology Tour:Tequila,Tacos, Mezcal and Agave Cocktails. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Puerto Vallarta?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Puerto Vallarta?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
