Review: Walt Disney’s Enchanted Tiki Room
Who doesn’t want the song “Tiki, Tiki, Tiki, Tiki Room” stuck in their head all day? Yeah I thought so. The perennial favorite little tropical birds sing and entertain all in the Enchanted Tiki Room. The show is one of Walt Disney’s classic attractions and a can’t miss for nostalgia buffs.
The Low Down:
Opened: October 1, 1971 (replaced between 1998-2011 with the God awful The Enchanted Tiki Room – Under New Management)
Location: Adventureland
Type: Audio-animatronic Theater Show
Length: 16 minutes
FastPass: No, theater loads pretty fast and if you miss the show in front of you, it’s only another 16 minutes of waiting time.
Kid Factor: Can be high. Like Carousel of Progress, people tend to drag their children in here to get a break from the heat. The Tiki Gods Thunderstorm portion may cause the rugrats to scream in terror.
Highlights: Don’t upset the Tiki Gods or there will be hell to pay.
Overall: Once again, seeing one of Walt’s creations is pretty awesome. The show is a little cheesy but it’s a classic. It’s an audio-animatronic singing bird show. It beats the hell out the late nineties “Under New Management” fiasco (Sign from God that Iago burned to a crisp?). If anything you escape the heat and gives you a place to sit for awhile.
Final Verdict: 3.5 out of 5 stars
