Sit down in a dark, air-conditioned theater and listen to dozens of animatronic birds, flowers and tikis sing above and around you in this reproduction of Walt Disney's original Audio Animatronic show from Disneyland.

The Magic Kingdom's tiki room opened as "Tropical Serenade" in 1971, then was replaced by a sarcastic, satirical sequel, "The Enchanted Tiki Room - Under New Management" in 1998. Widely panned by fans, that version of the show closed after fire damaged the tiki room in 2011.

The current version of the show is a restored and edited version of the original, omitting the central fountain and sing a long, as well as a long Offenbach number that once drove many viewers to the exits. Enchanted Tiki Room now plays at a brisk 10 minutes and offers a fun, gentle "musical luau" for guests who need a break from the heat and hassle of a busy day in the park.

You really wouldn't want to sit beneath a flock of birds talking to each other for obvious reasons but our animatronic feathered friends in the Tiki Room don't present any problems that may need dry cleaning. A charming show , much better for returning to it's original format, that provides that little bit of respite from the adrenalin rush outside it's polynesian doors. - Rob P

Much better than the old version. Not outstanding but a pleasant rest while being gently amused. - Martin Rees

Found it cheesy, a bit boring and was quite glad to leave. - Lauren Hayhurst

A supreme, spectacular change over the BAD, CRAPPY version of the Tiki room! - Brendan Harrison

One word: pleasant! - Donald Murray
