Hiya, Susan, and welcome back to planDisney!
It looks like you’ll be visiting Disneyland during the
most magical time of the year. That is so exciting! I’ll be happy to help you with your question.
It’s a small world after all! I rode
Tiana’s Bayou Adventure with my daughter during our last family visit to Disneyland. Once we reached the front of the line, I informed the Cast Member that we needed to ride together, and they gladly guided us to the last seat in the back. The seat will be subject to availability, of course. So, if there are other Guests queued for that spot, you may have to wait for the next round before boarding.
Be prepared! Your shoes may get drenched as you venture down the bayou in that spot. I had worn a poncho thinking that I would be drenched from head to toe, but it was primarily my toes!
Bonus Tip: After the ride, stop by
Tiana’s Palace for a meal. You will earn it after that thrill! I recommend the
French Quarter Fried Chicken Bowl. It's the perfect hearty meal to get you prepared for the rest of your park day.
Susan, I hope this information is helpful and that you enjoy your journey through Tiana’s Bayou Adventure! If you have any additional questions, my pals and I here at planDisney would love to see you again.
Sending you faith, trust, and pixie dust,
Karmeen
