Description And Comments
Pinocchio's Daring Journey is the newest of the Fantasyland dark rides, built in 1983. It's another twisting, curving track ride in the dark, this time tracing the adventures of Pinocchio as he tries to find his way home. Unfortunately, the action is hard to follow, and it lacks continuity. Although the sets are three-dimensional and the attraction has a decent length, the story line is dull and fails to engage the guest. In the ride’s defense, it features some deliciously trippy Pleasure Island imagery, a clever vanishing Blue Fairy effect, and almost always an empty queue..
Touring Tips
- Open for Early Entry.
The word must be out about Pinocchio because the lines are seldom very long. Still, the longest waits occur 11:30 a.m.–4:30 p.m. During peak times of the year, it can get very backed up.
Special Comments
A big letdown.
