Queue

The queue for Indiana Jones Adventure is one of the longest and most interesting in all of Disneyland. While it begins outdoors next to the world-famous Jungle Cruise, the queue snakes inside the temple itself and offers plenty to see and explore, from caves to videos explaining the attraction’s backstory to rooms filled with treasures (and nods to the Indiana Jones films).

Keep your eyes peeled for Easter eggs that reference Disneyland’s own past, too, like a sign from the old parking lot on which the attraction was built.

Accessibility 

Guests must transfer from their wheelchair or ECV to ride. Video captioning is available for use.

Is Indiana Jones Adventure Kid-Friendly?

Indiana Jones Adventure isn’t the most kid-friendly ride. It has one of the tallest height requirements for Disneyland’s thrill rides, which limits who can ride – and makes it best for tweens and teens. Featuring everything from flying arrows to falling rodents to huge hissing snakes, it’s filled with scares.

Plus, this is one bumpy and slightly scary dark ride. While it’s no roller coaster, it’s also not a slow-paced dark ride like Haunted Mansion or Snow White’s Enchanted Wish. Rather, it’s fast-paced, quick-jerking, and unpredictable with a vehicle that’ll really bounce riders around. So, make sure your kids are ready for thrills and a seriously rough ride.

Best For: Tweens and teens who love thrill rides or slightly scary settings.

Will Indiana Jones Adventure Cause Motion Sickness?

Indiana Jones Adventure will cause motion sickness for guests who are prone to car sickness or motion sickness caused by unpredictable terrain. Its jerky, up-and-down motion can easily upset sensitive stomachs, and its unpredictable shifts from slow to fast speeds can also jar riders.
