| Pirates of the Caribbean
is a gentle ride, but be aware that you may be
bumped from behind by another boat if you stop
(this often happens near the end of the ride).
If you have back problems you might want to keep
that in mind and be alert. |
|
|
 |
| Pirates of the Caribbean
usually has shorter lines than the other major
attractions at the Magic Kingdom. You'll often
find that there's little more than a
wait of 10 minutes or so to board. Even if the
wait
is
longer,
the
majority of the queue line winds through an old
fortress. There's lots to see (and it's nicely
air conditioned!), so the wait isn't usually
so bad. |
|
|
 |
| If you'd like to
sit up front, just ask! The Cast Members will
usually be happy to honor your request. |
|
|
 |
| There's plenty to
see from both sides of the boat, so it really
doesn't matter which side you sit on. If you
ride more than once however, try to sit on both
sides so you can get great views of everything. |
|
|
 |
| If you're riding
with small children you should try to let them
sit on the ends of the benches so they can see
everything (but don't be surprised if your little
ones want to sit right in the middle where it's
not quite so scary!). |
|
|
 |
| When you enter the
attraction building, there will often be multiple
turnstiles open. If most people are going through
one of
them, don't be afraid to use the other one. If
a lot of people entered the busier turnstile
you may be able to bypass a good part of the
line. |
|
|
 |
| If you're touring
with souvenir hunters (and younger children!),
be forewarned that the exit of the ride puts
you right in the heart of a large, pirate-themed
souvenir shop. It's hard to resist the treasure
chests of pretend jewels and the play swords
and guns. If you think that might be a problem
you should lay down some ground rules about what
(if anything) you'll buy and how long you'll
stay before riding. |

| Young swashbucklers
can pit their sword fighting skills against Jack
Sparrow himself! Throughout the day, Jack Sparrow
and his bungling assistant appear outside the Pirates
of the Caribbean entrance to select young pirates
to participate in the show
(it
helps
to be VERY enthusiastic!!).
You will learn some basic sword moves
in preparation for your showdown with Jack Sparrow
(it's
all very
carefully choreographed so don't fret). After showing
him your skills, you'll distract him with a shout
of "Look, the governor's daughter!", giving you
the chance to flee. Young pirates will receive
a special certificate and a memory they'll never
forget! (Wannabee Jedi Masters can also
clash light sabers with Darth Vader in a similar
show
at Star
Tours over at the Disney-MGM Studios!). |
