    I am wondering why expectant mothers should not ride the safari... I have been on the safari several times before - I don't recall it being very bumpy or anything like that. Please let me know, thanks!

    Hi Kristen!

    I'm a pretty big guy and weigh about 240 pounds.  I've been on the safari dozens of times and while most of the times I don't think it's very bumpy, there are at least two incidents where I was basically "bumped" onto the lap of the person sitting next to me!  So it can be pretty bumpy from time to time.  I highly recommend following all of the warning signs placed at the various attractions at Walt Disney World.  Disney wants everybody to have fun, but to have fun safely!

    Enjoy planning and write back if you have any more questions!
