Liberty Square Riverboat

"Its slow, take a bit of time to board and dock. But its a great way to see Frontier land, Haunted mansion, liberty square..... Its not airconditioned, but sections are covered, so you can get out of the rain or sun if you need a break."

"Not a very interesting attraction. Quite dated, and not a lot to see. It does provide a shaded break from the heat, but only if you sit in the middle of the boat where you can’t see very well. I think that since there are so many other things to do in Magic Kingdom, one should spend their time doing something else."

"This is a great ride that is free, relaxed, and rarely crowded. The location of this ride is in the Frontierland portion of the Magic Kingdom Park. It is one of the original rides of the park and opened the day after the park opened. It is a large 3-story steam-driven riverboat that loads and unloads from the entrance across from the Hall of Presidents and next to the Haunted Mansion. Passengers can choose to stand along the rail pretty much anywhere on the 3 decks. You enter on the middle deck. There is a parlor in the center of that deck with cushions that may not want to stand for the entire ride. We chose the middle level and enjoyed seeing one of the parades that came through Frontierland while we were there. Once the ride departs with the full steam whistle blows that precede departure, there is a running dialogue that is quite entertaining and talks about the various sites that you will see on your river adventure. The boat follows the river around Tom Sawyer's Island (another great place to visit). It is an enjoyable 20-minute ride that allows a good view of the park in a not-crowded moving platform. I recommend this for all people wanting a break from the hustle and bustle of the park when it gets busy. Enjoy."

"A nice, relaxing boat ride around Magic Kingdom's Rivers of America. It gives you lots of scenic views of Liberty Square and Frontierland, and is a good place to escape the noise and crowds."
