Love the presentation of this ride. The line que may look intimidating but moves! The only place to sit for this ride is at the very back/furthest away from the center (in my books).

The Conquistador is a great ride for the whole family. The intensity depends on where you sit. The closer to the middleof the ship you are, the less thrilling your ride experience will be. Teens prefer the back, as you go as high as you possibly can and experience some extreme "butterflies"! The ride cycle is fairly long, which is good for a swinging ship ride. Cosmetically, the ride is very well taken care of and appears to be brand new. Also, there is water on both sides, which really helps the ride's appearance. The Conquistador is a must if you visit this park!

MY RATING: 5 stars
