Adventure Express is a Mine Train roller coaster located at Kings Island amusement park.

Adventure Express is located in the Oktoberfest section of Kings Island near Bubba Gump's Shrimp Shack and next to Sling Shot. The ride is considered a mine train and has the typical lap bar designed trains, abrupt turns and features no inversions.

Adventure Express is dedicated to Robert Rinkel, a head of maintenance who died prior to the opening of the coaster. The park placed a plaque dedicating the ride to him on a stone by the entrance to the ride. Despite not being officially billed as an Indiana Jones-based ride, the films' theme plays in the loading station.
