Will you ride the water car at the Boathouse, for 100.$ ?

[betty rose]

For a 10 minute ride, that seems too pricy for me. What are your thought's?

 

[GhostHost1000]

No way

 

[sshindel]

Thought it was 20 minutes?

Still nope.

I do hope that people do though, because I think these will really add a lot, visually, to the whole area, with them going around the lake.

 

[Disneyhead'71]

Nope.

 

[RandomPrincess]

Wow $100! Is that for the whole car? How many people fit? Do you get anything else?

3 people and the driver. And nothing else. NOPE not for me!

3 people, 20 mins., no extras as far as I know.

Well its around $35 per guest - assuming a group of 3. I think plenty will, and considering the limited number of cars, the price point is probably about right to meet demand.

It is a pretty unique offering, and I think a lot of visitors are going to love the experience.

Here are the details - http://www.wdwmagic.com/dining/the-...g-set-for-the-boathouse-at-disney-springs.htm

"You may not have heard of them before, but they are cars that can operate on both land and water. The BOATHOUSE will be offering tours of the Village Lake in an amphicar for $100. The 20 minute cruise has seating for 3 guests, plus the boat captain - guests will not be able to drive themselves."



My kids were really interested in them. As a family of 4 we couldn't all ride.

I thought it will be fun to watch also.

I can really see sitting out at the bar on the dock at the boathouse, enjoying a beer or two, watching them chug on by, it would be a really cool thing. I hope that it draws enough business to continue operation and not get scrapped from low usage.

Thank you for the correct info. Got information on another sight...my apologies to all.

That's a good point. I'm a little surprised if they wouldn't make some accommodations for 3 people in the back seat if two are children. The cars look big enough that three across shouldn't be unreasonable.

Heard of them, heck I remember them operating in the late 50's and early 60's. Hardly a new concept, but if the ride went far enough and I had three people, I might go for it. It would depend on whether I was in cheap mode (meaning normal) or generous mode (meaning drunk).

Spoiler

I don't drink anymore so you can draw your own conclusions as to the ending of this story.

 

[betty rose]

Gotcha,

 

[NYBaloo]

sure would, looks like fun and a unique opportunity

 

[betty rose]

Can I be the third person in your car?

 

[NelsonRD]

If I could drive it myself and fit my family, I would. 3 Guests means one of us will be left behind.

Does one of them know how to water ski?
