As the others have indicated, it can vary quite a bit. A little wet happens...so does totally drenched. I usually wind up quite wet. We have tended to schedule Kali as the last thing we do at AK, so we can go back wherever we're staying and change. Be sure to store anything you don't want wet in the storage compartment at the center and keep your feet on the footrests. As far as a comparison vs. Splash Mountain, it can vary, but on average Kali is significantly wetter.
