Storyline
The story is about two swindlers who get their hands on a map to the fabled city of gold, El Dorado while pulling off some sort of scam. Their plan goes bad and the rogues end up lost at sea after a number of misfortunes. Oddly enough, they end up on the shores of El Dorado and are worshiped by the natives for their foreign appearance. Written by Paolo Costabel <paolo@bluesky-vifx.com>

Trivia
Voice artists in animated movies usually record their parts alone, with no other actors in the studio with them. In a break with this tradition, Kevin Kline and Kenneth Branagh recorded their dialogue together. See more »Goofs
Errors made by characters (possibly deliberate errors by the filmmakers): Tulio mentions how they are now richer than the King of Spain. In 1519, there was no title 'King of Spain' The man who ruled Spain, Charles V, was known as the Holy Roman Emperor and ruled Spain as King of Aragon, Castile and Léon. The title 'King of Spain' was not used until Charles' son, Philip, became king in 1556. See more »Quotes
