ATTRACTION FACTS



HISTORY

The boats originally docked at the Safari Village and in Asia . The boat from Safari Village was a non-stop trip that brought you up close to the Tree Of Life . There were also other things to see like a Dinosaur in DinoLand U.S.A. . The captian would also walk the isles and point out other items on the treck. It was similar to the Jungle Cruise at the Magic Kingdom .

The ride had a lot of complaints from the beginning. The ride was slow and long and took a long time to load and unload the boats.

In 1999 the attraction was renamed Radio Disney River Cruise and played commentary from Radio Disney DJs Just Plain Mark and Zippy . They said that they were broadcasting from the top of the Tree of Life. The boats were all re-painted in new colors.

The ride closed in late 1999 but the docks are still in the park.
