Travel deep within the Earth's core aboard one of many subterranean vehicles designed by Captain Nemo himself. Go deep into crystal caverns, encounter giant mushroom forests filled with bizarre creatures, see a storm happening in the subterranean sea, and encounter a giant magma monster before shooting out of Mt. Prometheus, plunging into the depths of the volcano, and whipping across the entire caldera.

Journey To The Center Of The Earth is the ride to remember. It is also a ride for Disney Parks lovers dread to not experience. Although the same ride system as RSR in DCA and Dinosaurs in WDW, it is a whole new themed ride with distinguish personality. You ride in a cast-iron like mine car and rolls deep into the earth. The vehicles keeps ascending it really makes it feels like you're doing deep down in earth. You then hears the buzzing of unknown insects, cooing of undiscovered ominous creatures until the reaches the lava, where the HUGE lava monster lays. The animatronic of the lava creature is about 12ft tall, then the ride makes a upward escape to the light at the end of the tunnel, and that's also when the car drops. This ride is emotionally exciting, physically thrilling. And If I've got the chance, I could've ridden it 20 times without getting tired of it. - Jeremy Hu

Short, but its the best ride in the park, has the test track element, and its a dark ride. The dark ride part is very detailed, and has so many weird monsters! The Lava monster animatronic is the highlight of this ride! - Brendan Harrison

This ride was phenomenal! My sister and I rode it three times and would have gone again if time had allowed. The ride itself has several good drops and plenty of thrills, plus it's combined with theming and a few animatronics that are definitely first rate. The front seat provides for the best coaster drops, though every seat is still a thrill. - Mary Rude
