I never got to go on RR when it originally opened... it broke down when we were there.... I did ride it in 2011 and enjoyed it, we got remarkably close to a rhino!

General Park News - (11/14/13) Has Rhino Rally closed for good? While Rhino Rally closed once again at the end of the busy summer season, it was expected that Rhino Rally would reopen once again sometime between Spring Break 2014 and Summer 2014 when the crowds arrived. This may not be the case any longer, as the latest word from Screamscape sources claims that the attraction is now likely closed for good and the immediate area will be used to expand the park’s elephant enclosure to allow for a breeding program.
Personally I'd love to see it replaced with something along the lines of High in the Sky at IOA, just a relaxed ride to observed some of the animals
Precisely this. Showing my age now, but I remember when they still had the monorail.They already have a train and a SyRide.
Aww that's sad I like rino rally, sure it got neutered but it shouldn't have been put down. That area used for it is gorgeous and worth going on it just for the delicious atmosphere. It's also fun to laugh at the story where a dumbass explorer gets lost 10 feet from the finish line. But yeah this was a childhood favorite and if that area will only be used for VIP tours... Might have to kill a flock of flamingoes
Don't worry. Rhino Rally is coming back next month. I ran into a group of drivers fresh outta training touring Pantopia.

One piece of new information from Busch today. This was announced by the "train person." Rhino Rally is closing forever after Monday's operation. Not a big fan, but this one "bites the dust."
FWIW, I was told earlier this year when I asked if/when it was re-opening that it would be open for Summer Nights and then probably closing for good sometime thereafter.
