Reviews
"The Train ride was really bumpy and not fun, Once
you get off the train thing it you have to walk forever in the
hot sun to get to the building were everything is. Once there you
realize there really isn't anything there. The best part is that
now you kids are miserable, but if you are lucky Stanley from playhouse
disney is there. So you get picture of your kids with him and you
start the long hike back to the station. By the time you get back
you just want to go back to your hotel.
Skip this attraction unless it is NOT hot and/or you have nothing else
to do, or if you ofcourse like paying attention to all of the boring educational
stuff along the way." Skyler
"When we went to Animal Kingdom (mid-June
2001) it was very crowded. I do not recommend going to Conservation
Station if you are in a crowded situation because it is very
hard to move around, espeically if someone in your party is in
a wheelchair or ECV. If it weren't so hot and crowded that day
it probably would have been better. Go very early If it's hot
and crowded, skip this attraction." Sarah
