The River Adventure, Jurassic Park’s
centerpiece attraction, is an exciting
adventure that floats by dinosaurs that
roamed the planet 65 million years ago.
A few of the dinosaur habitats included
on the tour are Ultrasaur Lagoon,
Stegosaur Springs, and Hadrosaur Cove.
The tour, however, takes a wrong turn
when one of the dinosaurs bumps the boat
off course into the Raptor Containment
Area. The only way to safety is to
narrowly escape the jaws of a gigantic
T-Rex by racing down an 85-foot drop,
creating a very splashy ending to a
thrilling river adventure. |
