Kali River Rapids sends round rafts of 12 riders spinning down a jungle river in the Asia section of Disney’s Animal Kingdom. The ride tells a story about illegal logging, but most guests remember it for one thing: the water. Some riders stay dry, others get absolutely drenched, and there’s no way to predict which you’ll be.

Tips

  • Plan to get wet. Wear quick-dry clothes, and put phones in the center storage bin or a zip bag.
  • Best on hot afternoons. It’s the perfect way to cool off.
  • Watch the water guns. Guests on the bridge can spray riders below.
