There is just something about hearing the birds sing words and
watching the flowers croon that brings a huge smile to my face.
Thankfully over the years the show the Enchanted Tiki Room put on has
been the same despite rumors of a makeover featuring characters from the
Disney movie Moana.
The musical serenade from literally everything around you in the
Enchanted Tiki Room will bring a huge smile to your face. It was
fun sneaking a look at Travis who had no clue what to expect and see him
grinning through this great show.
The Enchanted Tiki Room was the first Disney Attraction to feature Audio
Anamatronic figures when the attraction opened in 1963.
It was also computer controlled with a giant computer that filled the
basement under the show. With all of the heat given off by a
massive computer back in the 1960's Disneyland needed to air condition
the building to keep them from ovr heating. As a result the
Enchanted Tiki Room was the first air conditioned attraction at
Disneyland. I'm sure that added to part of the attractions
popularity.
