Insanely immersive attraction! The queue is long, indoor and fantastically detailed. But try using Single Rider to save time - turned a 40 minute wait to 7 minutes for me!
If it says the wait is 40 minutes or less - go for it. 10-15 minutes of it will just be eaten up walking to the back of the ride. One of the better non-rollercoaster rides in the park - super scary!
1 Of The BEST Waits For A Ride As You Journey Through The Temple!! 3 Doors To Go Through In This Ride For Alternatives To The Ending, Hopefully Each Time You Ride You Get A Different Door!! =)
With one of the longest waits at Disneyland, head to Adventureland as the park opens to catch Indy with a relatively short wait. Even fast pass later in the day will take longer.
Enjoyable adventure ride! Get the fast pass. Line is incredibly long and the ride is not worth a long wait but it is a must in your Disneyland experience.
Looking for an instant Fast Pass to any ride in Disneyland? Wait in line for Indiana Jones and it will break down almost every time and you'll get a free Fast Pass
Don't be deterred by the appearance of a long line... They keep the majority of the line outside. Once you reach the temple door, you'll have maybe a 5 min. wait inside before getting on the ride.
If the single rider line is available, tell an attendant you are a single rider - even of you are with your friends (they should too) - because you will skip the entire line of people waiting!!!
Those that believe adventure lies at the bottom of a whiskey bottle will not enjoy the sobering conclusion to this snake riddled joy ride of unadulterated terror. In other words bring a spare flask.
Some kid threw a candyapple at the boulder, it bounced off and hit someone, so Disney moved the boulder way back. Permanently. Thanks a lot, kid, you ruined a great ending.
If you forget something like sunglasses on the ride, the staff is willing to help. Be as descriptive as possible... I get the feeling that "sunglasses" isn't descriptive enough. Be detailed.
There are 2 hidden mickeys waiting in line; 1st is located on the face of the idol located on the ceiling of the large room. The 2nd is easier to find & on the left wall of video queue at the front.
Be careful of the stairs when heading to the loading platform. Their steep and the height makes them awkward. If you have an issue with the low lighting or just with stairs ask to use the elevator.
Steering wheel in front row left side might be fun for some kids. Also, left side stairs near boarding seem consistently faster, at least today. And: intense visuals, a lot for very small kids.
When you get to the front of the room with the movie look back at the projector. There is an Eyore parking sign. This is because the ride wad built over that section of the old parking lot.
While in line, after crossing through Bamboo Canyon, right before you get to the tiles with symbols on them, pull hard on the bamboo pole to the left. The ceiling drops!
Also, to correct an earlier tip, yes, there is a parking sign in the projection room. The Indiana Jones attraction was built on the eeyore parking lot, its not a sign from DCA.
Board a rugged troop transport deep inside an overgrown ancient temple for an unbelievable adventure filled with supernatural forces, mummies, and giant snakes!
