haunted-mansion

Basics: You’re stuck inside the old haunted mansion and forced to watch the creepy walls move, the ghosts dance and… sing?! It’s a haunted tour that takes a few minutes and while it’s no coaster it’s definitely an experience. During the holidays this is transformed into a whole different experience via the Nightmare before Christmas theme.

The Line: Starts outside with a series of walking and switch backs before you enter a large room, hear a short sound clip as an elevator takes you downstairs and to the last section of the in-door line.

Thrill Rating: 3/5
Location:  Disneyland (New Orleans Square)
Fastpass:  No
Smiles:  No
Basics: This is the movie inspiring classic that combines a few bumps with a lot of singing and scenary. Even though the changes made after the first pirates movie didn’t help the ride (if you ask us they should go back) it’s still a great ride. The entire experience is air conditioned too which makes for a nice bonus on a hot day. Note: While this ride use to be very dry and could almost be considered a non-water ride heavier people and bad loading can make you get a few splashes, be prepared.
The Line:  Starts outside before entering the building and the air conditioning. Generally less than 15 minutes.

Thrill Rating: 1/5
Location:  Disneyland (Adventure Land)
Fastpass: No
Smiles:  No
Basics: The backside of water is the 8th wonder of the world! This classic ride won’t get your heart going but a good guide will get you laughing. The Jungle Cruise is a slow moving tour where a guide gives you their own rendition of cheesy commentary as you see nature through animatronics. Lines tend to be short and it can be very fun or very bad depending on the guide and crowd.
The Line: These days the line is mostly inside and downstairs as you go through a few switch backs and walk in generally un 10 minutes or less.
