Readers' Opinions

A true Disney classic that's a must-do on every trip to the Magic Kingdom. Excellent corny scripts that have you groaning with delight each time you ride. Kids and adults alike will enjoy this "fun-for-all-the-family" attraction. - Rob P

Adventure River (Jurassic Park - Universal Studio) is much better! - Yan Banville

I was surprised that they came up with lots of new lines. Sure, some of the humor is corny, but I like the several gags I never heard before. Still a fun and enjoyable classic attraction. - Sylvain Comeau

Compare this to the Jurassic Park River Ride at Universal or even Jaws and you get the difference between Disney (Classic or dated) and Universal(modern but scary). - jim mclaughlin

This is a fantastic ride for families and especially young children, it was brought to life by the wonderful guide on the boat! - Vicky Mackenzie

This is a classic Disney ride. The jungle setting and the temple ruins are all very nice. The most important variable on this ride is the skipper. There are some good ones that tell the classic and updated jokes in a fun way and keep the ride fresh and there are other skippers like the one we had on our most recent visit in which it was really hard to understand anything he said. So your adventure will depend largely on your skipper. This ride is worth a visit if the lines aren't too long. Waits get long(40+minutes) during the day so either get a fastpass or come after 9pm when wait times are under 10 minutes. - Manny Barron

I agree with everyone. Jungle Cruise is a little dated but a definite classic. The guides vary from enthusiastic to terrible. Definitely worth a stop early in the day. Lines do get long so don't be afraid to fastpass it but be aware that it does take time to retrieve another fastpass. - Daniel Schumacher

The ride def is dated. For all the animitronics that disney uses, they should take another look at this ride. - roger murdock
