We’re one step closer to Rivers of America being open for guests again!
Last fall, Rivers of America was completely drained, and Tom Sawyer Island and the Liberty Square Riverboat closed with it. After Rivers of America was refilled last month, it looks like things are finally getting back to normal! Both the Liberty Square Riverboat and Tom Sawyer Island are reopening on February 5th, and now we have even more good news.
While in Magic Kingdom today, we saw Cast Members testing the rafts that will take guests to Tom Sawyer Island.
The raft made a successful trip from the dock in Frontierland to the dock on Tom Sawyer Island.
