Heimlich’s Chew Chew Train is a whimsical and family-friendly attraction located in Disney California Adventure Park at Disneyland Resort in Anaheim, California. This delightful ride is inspired by the character Heimlich, the lovable German-accented caterpillar from Disney-Pixar’s “A Bug’s Life.”

The ride immerses guests in Heimlich’s world, where they embark on a charming journey through a colorful and oversized garden. The ride vehicles resemble train cars fashioned from food containers, adding to the playful and imaginative atmosphere.

As the ride begins, guests are treated to Heimlich’s infectious enthusiasm and childlike wonder as he narrates the adventure in his endearing accent. Heimlich’s Chew Chew Train takes visitors on a slow, meandering trip through various oversized food items and garden settings, which have been transformed into whimsical, oversized snacks.

Throughout the ride, guests will encounter giant carrots, watermelon slices, animal crackers, and more, all with Heimlich’s playful commentary. Heimlich himself can be seen munching on some of these oversized treats, providing plenty of laughs and photo opportunities.

One of the highlights of the experience is the delightful aroma that fills the air as you pass through scented sections, such as the candy corn field. The sensory experience of sight and smell enhances the overall enjoyment of the ride.

Heimlich’s Chew Chew Train is particularly well-suited for families with young children, as it offers a gentle and entertaining experience without any significant thrills or scares. The ride’s lighthearted nature and the endearing character of Heimlich make it a favorite for those seeking a dose of Disney magic and whimsy.

Visitors of all ages can appreciate the attention to detail and the cheerful atmosphere of Heimlich’s Chew Chew Train, making it a delightful addition to the attractions at Disney California Adventure Park.
