Is this something that a 12-year old boy would enjoy or is it for younger kids?
Ahoy Viviane!
Thank you for the message, I would suggest our shows are geared for children 3-12 years old. Ideal for those 4-10 years – The Adventure/boat cruise is certainly fun for all ages, the show itself includes sword fighting, firing the water cannons and learning the ropes of the pirate life, it is an interactive performance and thus your 12 year old will have plenty of opportunity to join the crew and act with us on stage!
