Description: One of the Magic Kingdom's major attractions is Splash Mountain. Based on the 1946 Walt Disney film, "Song of the South", this ride features the antics of Brer Fox and Brer Bear's attempts to catch the wily Brer Rabbit as he looks for his laughing place. Over 100 Audio-animatronic figures entertain you as your log boat winds its way through caves, swamps and bayous, and down three minor drops before climaxing with a 52 foot plunge through the briar patch after Brer Rabbit outfoxes Brer Fox.
Guests in wheelchairs must be able to transfer to the log boats in order to ride this.

Cons:

One of my favorite rides. It was a walk on during the first parade at MNSSHP. I am pleased that they have installed lap bars as it makes me feel more secure.


I had my poncho on (didn't want to get my costume wet) and we didn't get that wet anyway. Disappointed that they weren't selling ride photos during the party.

Positive aspects of the product (pros): All-around good
Cons: sometimes you don't get as wet as you'd hope

I love how Disney made this a ride with the animatronics and that it tells a story and gives you some thrills along the way. I just can't get enough of it. I just don't always get very wet.

Amazing ride and drop to the Briar Patch! The theming and queue buildup to the drop is just amazing and the drop is no exception! Amazing!

Positive aspects of the product (pros): Great drop at the end. Great storytelling throughout the ride.
Cons:

We were there in early March 2011. I have been going to Walt Disney World for pver 30 years and really do not ever remember riding this ride. I don't know why because it is a GREAT ride and really don't get wet at all. We rode several times.

Positive aspects of the product (pros):
Cons:

Rode this twice on 5/18, once around 9:45am, and once with a FP around 7pm. Walked on both times. This ride is a lot of fun, and there's so much detail, but the songs get a little annoying after awhile. Still on my list of must dos!

Positive aspects of the product (pros): More than just a splash ride
Cons: You may wish you'd gotten wetter

All in all, you really don't get too wet sometimes. But there's so much more to this ride than that as you enjoy scenes from Song of the South! One of my Top Ten at Magic Kingdom.

Positive aspects of the product (pros): everything
Cons: clearly, nothing.

I choose not to find a single fault with this ride, and will ride it no matter how reluctant I am to get wet. I love the straight storyline, the classic characters, and Disney's homage to a film that, despite being widely criticized today, is a piece of pure magic. I love the length of the ride, you feel as though you are really getting your money's worth. The buildup of anticipation as you're climbing the final dark hill is palpable; the pause at the crest, right before you plunge into the briar patch, is a sheer delight!

Positive aspects of the product (pros): Cute story/lots of drops
Cons: none

Can't miss this one! Lines can be long but move rather quickly. It's definitely worth a long wait tho! It's a cute story about rabbits and you float along for quite sometime before you go down the big drop. There are lots of little drops along the way that trick ya into thinking you're going down the big one. If you don't want to be wet all day then I suggest you do this at the end of the day. I've riden this ride countless times and sometimes i get soaked and other times I get nothing. But you never know!

Positive aspects of the product (pros): Everything
Cons: None

This ride is great for thrill seekers. The ride has a great theme with many animatronics and scenery to capitivate the experience. The songs might get stuck in your head through out your stay at Disney, but if you do not mind that then this ride is great. You will get wet on this ride, so bring a poncho if necesary. I also recommend fast pass because the ride waits can get to 70-80 minutes. You can recieve wonderful photos of your group after the ride which is great for the people who crave memories. All-around great attraction.

Positive aspects of the product (pros): Best log-flume ride anywhere
Cons: Line can be a bit long

Everything about the ride is great. Very immersive and lasts a long time. Great sets and storyline. Beautiful from the outside. You usually don't get "drenched" at the end.

Positive aspects of the product (pros): So much fun for all ages!!! Best in the summer when its super hot.
Cons: Not really anything negative about this ride :)

I love this ride. We ride it everytime we go to Disney over and over. You just can't get enough of this ride. Everytime you ride it you notice something you haven't ever noticed before. I love riding this during the summer! That huge splash of water feels amazing! If you plan to ride this, PREPARE TO GET SOAKED! If you don't want to get wet then i suggest you wear a poncho! Have fun! Smile

Cons: WET!!

I gave this a 7 because just put it in your mind that you will get wet and you'll be okay. Some people take ponchos to wear on this ride. The final drop is intimidating.

Positive aspects of the product (pros): very cute
Cons: long lines

I love Splash Mountain. The animatronics here are so cute and even if you've never seen "Song of the South" on which the attraction is based, you can still follow the story line.


My favorite time to ride this is during the fireworks. The views from the outside areas are spectacular.


One trick I've learned over the years is to focus on the castle when you come to the drop. The castle is such a nice view and for anyone with a fear of the drop, it takes away some of the scare factor.


Be sure to use fast pass here. The lines for this get insanely long in the middle of the day.

Positive aspects of the product (pros): everything besides the lenght of the line
Cons: huge line

This is one of my favorite rides in Disney. I just went on three times yesterday (used fastpass) and there was no wait in the fastpass line (there was a 70 minute wait for stand-by line). I sat in the front row, back row, and second row. The best is front (I love getting wet on rides). The ride has like 4 or 5 drops, and my favorite drop isn't the big one, but the roller-coaster like drop in the dark. The ride is nice and long unlike Kali River Rapids, which is like 2 minutes long. Can't wait to ride again!

Positive aspects of the product (pros): brilliant water ride
Cons: often huge line

a great ride to get soaked and cool off. the only problem would be the large line you have to wait in, often in uncomfortably hot weather.

This is simply the best log flume ride I have ever ridden. The theming is superb. The drop at the end is not as bad as it looks.

Positive aspects of the product (pros): Great ride and show beginning to end
Cons: May get very wet, drop can intimedate young ones

This is an example of Disney at its best. The telling of the story to the animatronics to the ride are simply amazing. Not for small ones because of the drop but other than tiny kids pretty much great fun for all. Tip: if you don't want to get that wet, when your facing the mountain when a log comes down the drop look to see if a water cannon shoots water up and to the left over the path of the logs. If you don't see this you will probably only get a little sprinkle on the ride, but if this cannon is on you will more than likely get SOAKED!!
