Hong Kong Disneyland offers all the thrills and excitement of a typical Disneyland encounter where shopping, tours, rides and a chance to meet your favourite Disney character are on the cards.
The best part of this ride is there is no height restriction – Open to the whole family the Jungle River Cruise promises adventure, exotic locations and even the occasional scary adrenaline rush. Ideal for kids of all ages the cruise is available in many categories such as; Go Wild – this is a cruise across a jungle landscape full of elephants, hippos and even a scary head-hunter. The 'Early Excursions Tour' is a recreation of the original tour opened way back in 1955 at the first Disney Park in California. Themed on family adventure the Indiana Jones type tour guarantees to mesmerize and delight the whole family.
A circle of ancient totem poles make up the Liki Tiki water ride. Open to kids of all ages this family friendly ride promises lots of water based activity. Mysterious mists envelope visitors as they circle the Tiki Poles which sometimes seem to spring a leak soaking everyone around it; of course it is all part of the fun dealt out by the cheeky Liki Tiki Gods. Just next to the totem poles is an area full of ancient tribal drums where anyone can have a go at pounding out a rhythmic message of doom and disaster.
The Disney version of Tarzan is brought to life as you take a cruise along the River of Adventure aboard a wooden raft. Step off into the jungle and walk up to Tarzans tree house – watch-out for the friendly elephants on the river bank as you and the family enjoy a memorable adventure.
