I can tolerate Grand Fiesta

[THEMEPARKPIONEER]

As much as I hate characters taking over some attractions at Epcot I can say that Grand Fiesta is pretty much just an overlay on top of El royal di tempo. To my surprise, most if not all the scenery is in tact and the cultural aspect is still in place. There's some modifications and all new projections but besides that I can still catch a good dose of nalstalgia. And I'm not going to lie I do like that new ending scene they just added.

The Three Caballeros and Saludos Amigos were travelogue films, designed specifically to spur interest in travel to Latin America. Since El Rio Del Tiempo was also a travelogue, I've never had any problem at all with Gran Fiesta. This coming from a guy who hates nearly everything that Disney has done in Epcot since it's inception. Three Caballeros is a family favorite film (Saludos Amigos movie poster also hangs on our wall), so this has always been nearly a must-do for me. That brings my Epcot must-do list to Spaceship Earth, Living with the Land, and Gran Fiesta Tour.

I never really saw the problem in the first place. The character tie-in actually works well here unlike certain other pavilions...

I will say though that I liked the original music much better. It was a stick in your head type like Small World.

I personally like the ride. Can't wait to get down and see the new / old audioanimatronic additions! Nothing like riding the Tour, having a laugh, then jumping off and grabbing a margarita!

Same here

I prefer the newer music anyway. Now Frozen replacing maelstrom is a joke, maybe go thru the regular maelstrom and add a section for frozen or if they must... replace the oil rig scene with frozen scenery and turn that town into arondale would be a somewhat tolerable change.

The amount of detail in the ride always catches me off guard. Especially in the marketplace area, with all the stands and flowers, and the fireworks in the sky. It's pretty cool!

the addition of the animatronics was a real surprise and well kept secret. Should be a nice addition.

I always enjoy this ride (not just because of the tequila from La Cava although it doesn't hurt).

My important question, is this attraction "cute" or "charming"?

its a nice ride I find it very relaxing, not an E ticket but nice and the changes will make it better.

 

[ShoalFox]

The attraction is pretty cute and it has lots of charm now with the new AA figures.

I'd say it's about a B or C ticket.

Plus, the addition of the original Three Caballeros animatronics from the Mickey Mouse Revue is nirvana for hardcore Disney park fans.

The respective package films might have been about cultural exchange but the ride is just about finding a selfish duck. The setting is rather inconsequential.
