Tips for Kids |
The Congo River Expedition is
a completely immersive adventure and guests
of all ages are welcome to ride, but
beware, certain aspects of the jungle may be
too scary for younger children. Small
children must be in a separate tube. Tubes
with bottoms are located at our guest
relations counters near the bottom of the
Downhill Racer. Use of life jackets are also
encouraged and are available for free
throughout the park. |
