Creator's Key Takeaways

Jungle Cruise is easily in my top five rides at Disneyland.

It's a phenomenal ride, and I highly recommend it even if you aren't a Star Wars fan.

Space Mountain is easily my second favorite ride in the park, right behind Rise of the Resistance.

The best times to ride are either early morning or an hour before the attraction closes.

Creator's Tips & Advice

✓Ride the Disneyland Railroad for a full loop called the Grand Circle Tour.
✓Use the single rider line for Indiana Jones Adventure to cut down wait times.
✓Wear waterproof shoes or change into flip flops before riding Tiana's Bayou Adventure.
✓Visit Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance early morning or an hour before closing to avoid breakdowns.
✓Ask a cast member about the handicap accessible viewing area for Finding Nemo Submarine Voyage if claustrophobic.
