Re: Favorite Disney Water Ride?

I'd have to say Splash Mountain (great story), though we very rarely ever ride it since the rest of my family doesn't like the drop.

Re: Favorite Disney Water Ride?

I voted for Splash Mountain, but I also would like to note that Grizzly River Run at California Adventure is quite good (superior to Kali River, imo). But I figured this was limited to WDW rides so I didn't vote for "other".

Had to go ith Splash Mountain. We were at WDW in November and my oldest daughter and I rode it countless times. Cool thing was, I noticed something different every time.

Re: Favorite Disney Water Ride?

Kali River Rapids is underated...when you ride that with random other families its like your one party all together for that ride. My wife and I rode it on our honeymoon, we ended up riding with a family from Kentucky, we rode and talked the whole time wondering who would be the one or two that got completely soaked on the big drop (someone always gets all the water). we had so much fun we went on it three times in a row as a group, my wife and I and this other family who we didnt even know. We kept riding it and laughing and teasing each other about who would get the big wave of water next. *magical moment*

Agreed! I LOVE Kali! My dad and I love rides like that and can't get enough of it! Plus it is a great way to cool off in AK since there aren't many ways or places to cool off in that park. I also picked Splash Mountain too though, its just classic!

Re: Favorite Disney Water Ride?

I don't get Kali. It would be OK if there was a thrilling part, but to me it seems kind of like having a car accident while water gets gratuitously dumped on your head. It's not scary, it's not delightful, it's just... wet. IMO of course.

My kids and husband like it, though, so to each his/her own!

Gotta' go with PotC!
First rode the original at Disneyland back in '68. Will be back on it again, for the first time since '87, next Thursday!

Re: Favorite Disney Water Ride?

Some of you may find this shocking (sarcasm alert) but I think Pirates was better before the movie rehab. I liked the talking skull who warned you about the waterfall, I liked how the Yo Ho song played throughout the ride, and I don't see any particular need to see Johnny Depp anywhere in POTC. I'm starting to wonder if I'm just a cranky old man or are these "improvements" really detriments?

Re: Favorite Disney Water Ride?

My vote goes to Splash Mountain! It is really an awesome ride. I rode many times and ever enjoy on it. I think it is one of the great Disney’s all rides (not only water rides). I must to do when we have been there.

Best Regards,

Was there ever a talking skull in the beginning at the Disney World version of PotC??
