Pretty typical of antique car rides; plenty to see. Children who haven't "driven" before will probably enjoy this the most.

I like the fact that its a classic attraction through a nice, long, scenic course. However, it just isnt exciting at all, so I really dont know how to rate it. Overall, it was decent, and the best part about it was the views. A nice look at some of Virginias trees covered with lots of ivy. Its just cool that this is smack in the middle of a big theme park. A quiet ride for all member of the family, but just not my cup of tea.

Blue Ridge Tollway was an excellent antique car ride and one of the best ones I have been on. Located towards the middle-right side of the park, Blue Ridge Tollway is a standard antique car ride with excellent placement allowing a wonderful track through the woods. Due to its location, its impossible to discover Blue Ridge Tollways layout just by looking at it while off the ride. I visited Paramount Kings Dominion on a Monday and it wasnt crowded. Therefore Blue Ridge Tollway was a walk-on. Blue Ridge Tollway has a very low capacity because of a horrible loading procedure and slow dispatch times. Riding in multi-colored cars with canopies above you head, you are restrained by a simple seat-belt. Blue Ridge Tollway has an excellent layout through the woods with many turns and trees concealing what lies beyond the next turn. My ride on Blue Ridge Tollway lasted a long time because of the lengthy layout. I found that it had decent steering and the entire ride was very-well shaded because of its layout through the woods. Holding down the pedals with my foot during the ride was very easy. Overall, an excellent antique car ride and is easily one of the best ones I have been on. I highly recommend Blue Ridge Tollway to anyone who enjoys antique car rides or leisurely car rides. This is an excellent relaxation ride.

The cars are nice looking, the scenery is nice through the woods. It is a good family ride that doesnt have a very long line.

On a very hot day, this is one of the few rides with some shade. Its a cool little ride, but nothing to get overly excited over. Plus, the lines are usually VERY long

APPEARANCE-9 Cars look nice and the track through the woods is excellent. RIDE QUALITY-3 I hate the canopies on the car. They hurt your view, also the car I was in was about impossible to steer. CAPACITY-3 I am guessing here since the park was empty that it would not be good. One track usually signifies a long wait. FUN-4 No steering and reduced sight hurts the fun catergory. RERIDE-5 I really liked the track so I would try it again but it was a pretty average experience. OVERALL- 24 AVG-4.8 So I give it the 5.

This ride sucked. No scenery, boring ride, and the employees comandeer you about five hundred feet outside the station. It also broke down twice while I was in line. I brought a stopwatch to the park that day. This ride was a wait of 1 hour, twenty-seven minutes, and Whitewater Canyon was only forty-six minutes! Ride this only if you want to be bored out of your mind!

A nice way to stay in the shade, and enjoy a nice breeze if you get one through the trees. Fun for most of the family, but not much for a thrill seeker.

The lines are short at night for this one, plus it has some really nice scenery. Antique cars are always cool.

This ride is alright. Just some antique cars that go no faster than ten mph. Its setting in the woods is pretty neat. A good ride to waste some time on, and the lines are long for it too. Its just an average ride. Fun for a break.
