The ride originally opened as El Rio del Tiempo. after the closure of this version, it was decided that a ride based off the Three Caballeros characters would replace the old version. It would reopen 4 months later on April 20, 2007. The ride has never changed, aside from on December 4, 2015, when the finale screen of the characters, were replaced by animatronics of the characters, from the former Mickey Mouse Revue show. The ride continues to operate to this day.
