AK: Tarzan & Lion King - Tips?

[mexico_ride]

In all my trips to AK, I have yet to see Tarzan or Lion King. They are my two main objectives on our next visit!
Any tips on when is a good time to see each show....how early should we arrive.....is the two year old going to like it!?

my two year old LOVED the lion king show! and the tarzan one (not sure of the age of him when he first saw that.. but pretty young!)

Tarzan show, you should get into with no problems.. any time before 10/15 mins. If you want seats near the front you will need to get there earlier.

The Lion King show, I would try get there half an hour before the show.

Any time is a good time to see either show. LK is airconditioned.. and Tarzan isnt... but it is under cover with huge great fans to cool you down.

lots of people find Tarzan v warm.. so you might like to do the early show. personally, we always get a frozen lemonade and I have to say, I dont feel overwhelmingly hot in there - ever.. and I am pretty heat intolerant!

IF you sit near the front, the monkeys give a nice breeze as they skate past!!

Do see the shows.. they are both fabulous!

Well, I think they are the very best part of AK and not to be missed.
I always try to catch Lion king first thing and again later in the after noon.
Trazan, catch it early as you can. Because, they are not to be missed.

We saw both shows earlier this year and they are both a lot of fun. We caught the very first show of the Lion King and it was practically empty. The performance was still AMAZING!!!! This is by far my favorite show at AK.
We got in line for Tarzan and only had to wait about 5 minutes before getting in. It was nice we got to sit and relax for a about 20 minutes before the show started. The theatre was really big so even if we had gotten there later I am sure we would have gotten a good seat. This was the last showing that we saw so we wanted to make sure we had a spot (first time seeing it). Hope that helps. Have fun!
