Surprisingly enjoyable. Doesn't seem to be that interesting on first inspection but give it a go! - Mark Moore

Outstanding. This is a really interesting ride, especially for nerds like me. The greenhouse section is really something else. A near-perfect blend of intellect and entertainment ("infotainment", as branded by Homer Simpson). - Joshua Counsil

A really interesting ride about agriculture. My favorite part of the ride are the sets before the greenhouses that include a rain forest, desert(reminds me of home), and an american prairie. After that portion of the ride there are the greenhouses that show different ways of growing food. Theres also tanks with small alligators, tilapia, and eels. This ride is a pleasant surprise and one of my favorites. This is the perfect place to spend some time while a fastpass for the nearby Soarin' becomes valid. Waits for this fast loading ride usually never surpass 30 minutes. - Manny Barron

Seems like it would be a boring ass school based ride. I was surprised to find that it was a lot of fun. Great opening with the farm and rain forest. I never thought looking at plants would be interesting but i was wrong. Also is pretty cool how they farm the fish then serve them in the restaurant. - roger murdock

I didn't want to go on this ride, but Soarin' had a 45 minute wait. So, I jumped on because this moved quickly, and I actually loved this ride. It was truly educational in a very fun way, and I was amazed at the greenhouses. Don't miss this ride if you think it might be boring. You'll be surprised. - Raymond M

If you're a gardener, you'll love this ride. Very cool plants and ways to grow plants. Talk to the employees out in the crops. They'll be surprised but they'll respond. - ed snopse

Not worth a long wait, but a great ride. - Amy Tupper

Cool, relaxing and educational boat ride featuring plants and animals. Worth a ride on a hot and hectic day, also very informative - Emily Greaves

Why do I like this ride so much. I have no idea, it gets pretty dull. But I'm a Pagan so I'm a tree hugger, nature lover, people who are like that will like this ride. It's very informative as well. - Katie M

I liked this ride, but I'm also a discovery channel geek. I've taken two females I was dating at various times on this ride, and they were literally bored to tears. It's essentially a very slow moving boat ride through a greenhouse, with a narrator talking about various farming methods and food science. Not what most people look for in a theme park ride. - George McClelland
