Thunder River Rapids review by Zanstabar

by Zanstabar, 9 years ago
Rated 3.0 A staple for any family trip to Dreamworld. You're guaranteed to have fun, but don't expect relevant theming or to get saturated.

Review Criteria

Enjoyment Very Good

A staple for any trip to Dreamworld. This ride is best with friends, as you giggle and scream your way down the river

Effectiveness Good

A nice family ride, yet I thought I would've gotten a lot wetter than what I did.

Intensity Low

The intensity of the ride is suitable for almost any guest to Dreamworld

Rider Comfort Amazing

Restraints were simple, un-intrusive and effective.

Pacing Good

Felt like I wanted more of a ride, but I'm ultimately satisfied with the length of the ride.

Theming/Storyline Average

Dinosaur, Outlaws and Elephants, Oh my!

Upkeep/Presentation Good

There is some wear around the ride, but nothing too serious or distracting. In fact, it can add to the Western theming if handled correctly.

Queue/Efficiency Good

Sometimes the loading can take a little while, but it is at least consistent.

Splash Factor Low

I was hoping to get drenched, but came off relatively dry.
