We love the tiki room. I know, corny as it is....but it's fun. The song gets in your head and you will find yourself singing it later on. If you like Zazu from Lion King and Iago from Aladdin, you will like the show. Besides, it is a place to sit for 10 minutes and you are in the airconditioning. Always an added bonus.

We went to the Tiki Room on our last trip. It is a little corny, but if you have never been you should go! It consists of animontronic (sp?) birds above your head. It is a little dark-and a nice cool place to relax. We liked the talking totem poles on the walls.
It has a great Walt Disney type nostalgia.

It's so corny. I love it.
try to go in the middle of the day. LIke others have said it's one of the coolest (as in temperature) spots at the MK....
I think you should go becasue of the nostalgia. it was one of the first rides, one of the first animontronic (sp) that disney created.

Definitely corny, and an absolute favorite. We go pretty much every day that we're in MK. The cold AC doesn't hurt, either. Oh, and its proximity to Dole Whips.

I know I'm going to be hated for this but I just didn't like it. I was a fan of the original but this one is CORNY! It is a good place to get some time away from the sun and some AC but isn't that what the TTA is for? If you like Iago and Zazu then you will like it but I wasn't a fan. I rode it once and I'm good for at least 5 years untill I ride it again. I was hoping that this could be a sleep through ride but it isn't. CM are in there with you and the music is so loud that you can't go to sleep. I have to admit though, the Tiki god is pretty cool. The only reason I go back to that is to see the Tiki God. However brief the time is that you see the Tiki God, it is cool! If you REALLY want to see it, then I say check it out, I mean there is no reason NOT to check it out so I say go for it!

Its awesome! Or...it was awesome and now its just pretty awesome...but that's just me nitpicking about the post-remodel Tiki Room. Its still good (and waaaay better than Country Bears, if you ask me). I love the song...

My MIL refused to take DH in there when he was there as a child and young adult. Maybe she's afraid of birds? Her middle name is Polly so she is a little sensitive about parrots...
Anyway, we love the tiki room! It's cool and a nice place to sit down. It's so corny but it is still cute. I can remember the old tiki room from my first trip (when I was 3) and it's a little sad that they changed it but it is still worth a visit. A big step up from the Country Bears, IMO.

Yeah it is a corny attraction, but SOOO MUCH FUN. Taking DW there for the first time in Sept.
If you plan to go just learn the words to the song before you do. There is nothing worse than having a song stuck in your head all day and not know the words to it. Believe me it WILL be STUCK in your head!!!
Good Luck and enjoy.

I have been in the tiki room all four times I've ever gone to DL or DW. Granted, my last time to any park was in 1987, so I don't know what changes they've made other than what I've read about adding Zazu and such, but it has always been my favorite. I loved the Country Bears too, but the last two times I was at a park they were closed, so that was about 1980 when I saw them last. Those two places are on our "Must do" list for this trip.

K... Don't anyone be upset, I'm going against the grain here.
Please replace this with something else.
I may have been really, really hot & crabby but it was off the wall horrible, except if you're a young one.
Go ahead take a hit @ me back...

OMG you should be excommunicated from Intercot you horrible, horrible person. Nah, not really. DH doesn't really care for it either but DD and I feel a little cheated if we skip it. Also prefer the old version but we still like it because:
1) I'm nostalgic and remember the attraction from a childhood trip to DL
2) DD appreciates anything in which Walt had a hand.
3) "In the tiki,tiki,tiki,tiki,tiki room" is one way to drive "It's a small world after all..."from our brains for awhile.
So back to the original question--
If you're expecting rock-em/sock-em/get your heart beating way too many beats per minute action this is not an attraction for you. But then precious little at WDW would be for you.
If a return to a cornier and more simplistic time suits you, it'll give you a chuckle.
OH-- and while I prefer TR to BCJ, I can't believe you folks that love corn would willingly miss out on Big Al's "Blood" song and hideous banjo. Ain't no accountin' for taste.

It was cute for my kids and it was a great place to cool off for my DH and myself...

Everybody sing!

all the birds speak words and the flowers croon,

And a question for you Disney trivia experts...
How many voices did Paul Frees provide for the original tiki room show? (I've never seen the new version)...

It's a classic oldie and I recommend that everyone see it once...even if it is so that you can complain about it! :-)
If you like Country Bears and Carousel of Progress, you'll like the Tiki Room. If you hate those shows...well...

Spare her the Tiki Room.
I remember Country Bears....thought it would never end.
Hey, but I LIKE Carousel of Progress!
First trip: 1992 with sister, last trip 2018 with grandchild, not done yet!

It's funny - I've found this ride is one you either love or hate.
My kids & I really like it - no trip is complete without going at least once.
My wife & parents always find it a really long 10 minutes.
I agree with an early poster - you gotta go at least once - even if just to figure out you don't want to go again
