Swiss Family Treehouse reviews
Theme Park Insider readers offer their ratings and reviews for Swiss Family Treehouse, a walk through in Adventureland at Walt Disney World's Magic Kingdom.
Written by Robert Niles Unfortunately, many guests mistake the treehouse entrance for the queue to the Jungle Cruise, which is actually farther down the path to the left. The treehouse is a fun diversion for kids, especially older-elementary and middle school students who know the Swiss Family Robinson story. Wait to visit until later in the evening, when the sun goes down and the crowd diminishes, so that you have time to linger, allowing your imagination to come alive in the shadows. Readers' rating:
This one, you can skip. After our long tiring journey through the Magic Kingdom, my son thought this was a cool walkthrough. We went, a very nice setting and props but pointless. - Brendan Harrison It's an enjoyable way to spend half an hour, as long as there's not much of a line all the way round. Not something to do again and again though. - Lauren Hayhurst never a wait so its a fun walk through. GREAT views of the castle and tomorrowland make the hike up worth it! - travis traymoore Such a part of so many childhoods, the Treehouse is too-overlooked for the level of detail it has. Often makes me wonder if the spirit of adventure has died amongst the young. - Man-Eating Sharks No wait, and it's fun for kids. - Mostly Anonymous I've noticed an extended queue for the treehouse, but I have no idea why it needs one. Has anyone ever seen this queue used? - Joseph Catlett Walk it once and your done. 4/10 - Dominick D I admit that it is something that can be missed. However you should try going there at night (especially during Christmas time) you get a really nice view of the castle and can take some nice pictures from up there. It's something to think about. - Laura Milton Good first time through. Not something to do over and over. - Terri Pierce It's fun to see but it's not for people who have trouble negotiating steep stairs. A lot of people can't see this attraction because of that. - Laura Daspit Fun the first time around, but repeat visits it's always one that we skip. Perhaps if they updated it every once and a while it would become something worth seeing. - Brandie S An excellent treehouse and something I would love to have in my backyard, but the Swiss Family Treehouse is a pretty lame attraction for the most attended theme park in the world. - James Rao See it once. It's cool, but it never changes. - David L. I think this is a nice little walk-through attraction. Even though I wouldn't necessarily make it a priority on a short/busy day at the Magic Kingdom I would definitely take advanage of it if I had ample time in the park and the lines for other things weren't bad. It is especially fun the first time through. - Lindsay Murray More attraction and restaurant ratings:
