Journey to Atlantis reviews
Theme Park Insider readers offer their ratings and reviews for Journey to Atlantis, a flume ride at SeaWorld Orlando. (The minimum height to ride is 42 inches.)
Written by Robert Niles After boarding, riders proceed through a short dark ride sequence when the Siren beckons riders into the mythical city of Atlantis. But soon, the siren transforms into a demon and riders are expelled from the temple down the ride's signature waterfall. After a turnaround, riders return to the temple for a final encounter with the siren/demon, in a short roller coaster segment leading to a final splashdown... and thorough soaking.
Readers' rating:
Good ride not better then Rip saw falls at IOA but I love the end the coastet part. - Giovanny Cruz It is a good flume ride but not the best the drop is incredible and the coaster section at the end is a nice surprise. - Jack Ainslie Great 2 drops in this ride but the inside is ridiculous and extremely outdated! 7/10 - D H 9/10. I actually like this better than Splash Mountain. Of the flume rides in Orlando, I rank them Dudley Do Right, Journey to Atlantis, Splash Mountain. - Nick Dakuginow my little sis hates this ride because shes afraid of the medusa love it pure fun if you don,t want to get wet sit in the back - Manny Rodriguez When I first rode this ten years ago I thought it was just another flume ride. Boy was I wrong! I love the last part of the ride with the transition to a rollercoaster! - Terry R This ride has the opportunity to be great but as of late it's fallen into average status. The dark ride portion is nice, but of course could be updated. The drops give a nice little thrill and the roller coaster portion is quite a surprise on your first ride! Warning: you will get SOAKED in the front row, sprinkled in the others. - David Garey 9/10 Very good needs a refurb to make it a little longer - Vini Santos My favourite flume ride i think. I love the little surprise coaster bit at the end which adds another hidden element, and yes, you WILL get wet no matter where you sit! - Samantha McCrae my 2nd favorite log flume ride behind islands of adventures rip saw falls. i like the rollercoaster part. - luis m This was a good ride when I rode i sat in the second seat man i got soaked and the drop was amazing you could deffinatly feel the G,force on your body.The thing was that freaked me out was when it was about 3 seconds to drop i was like nooooooooooooooooo but there was no turning bak then so when it got ready to drop i held on tight and down it went. I sill hated that feeling in my stomach but its not really that bad i mean thats what rides are made for right! I just wish it lasted longer like it went up again atleast 3 times after the first big drop then that ride wouldve been amazing! But for the most part if you go to sea world this is a must ride to get on. - anton Pearman A little dated and in need of refurbishment. It looks impressive from the outside but less so once you are on the ride. The story is however a good one and the drop is pretty big. We watched this ride for a while to see how wet we were likely to get before riding and got much wetter than we were expecting, which was not good on a cloudy day. - Emily G Very bad compared to the other water attractions of Orlando. Nice theming from the ground, but the actual attraction is very weak. - Anthony Murphy We just went and rode it last week and I have to say the ride was in tip top shape with newly painted boats, spruced up scenery and of course the thrills you would expect from Atlantis. If you don't want to get absolutely soaked, make sure not to sit in the very front seat! - Amianne Moore I was a little peeved at getting wet off of the smallest drop on the ride. You go down, and a spurt of water comes up and drenches all the riders. I sat in the front seat, so I got soaked. The roller coaster part was fun though. - Tommy Rowbal Don't understand the 9 rating; the ride is good but not outstanding. One good drop and a lot of mediocre theming. - Mark Moore great theming,incredible drops - tyler bell More attraction and restaurant ratings:
