Soarin’ is THE attraction at Epcot. It is located in the Land pavilion and is great for guests of all ages, although it does have a height requirement of 40 inches. Guests will be grouped into three rows of eight passengers for their pre-flight instructions, which is pretty entertaining by itself. After being told how…
This Three Caballeros ride is located in Epcot’s Mexico Pavilion within the Mayan pyramid. Donald Duck is featured along with Jose Carioca and Panchito Pistoles, which make up “the three.” This is one of those Epcot attractions that you do when all of the others are too crowded. I will say that the venue that…
This clam shell ride through this Future World pavilion that houses the huge aquarium takes guests through a route that allows them to gaze into the tanks of fish accompanied by Nemo and his friends. This attraction is probably enjoyable for preschool children, but other than that, most will not find this too entertaining. I…
This attraction is located in the back of the Magic Kingdom within the confines of Fantasyland and consists of guests riding in clam shell-shaped carts that meander through a rock-like structure featuring Ariel and her companions. This ride is very similar to The Seas with Nemo and Friends attraction over at Epcot. guests ride through…
This “Walt original” has been a mainstay at the Magic Kingdom since its inception. At the time, the audio-animatronic fowl was probably a fascinating piece of entertainment. This attraction has 150 birds signing and chatting it up in a 15-minute show that seems to be at least double that. This Disney original made my three…
This ride is a Walt Disney original that allows guests to board one of ten boats that seat around 25 people and motors up the river where the shipmates get to view plastic animals frolicking in the water while the boat’s Skipper act as guides on this voyage. I do like the fact that…
This attraction came to being with the addition of Toy Story Land at Hollywood Studios. Up to four guests are put into a circular “car” and then the swirling begins. It is a mix between the swirling component of Mad Tea Cups, the rough ride of an old wooden rollercoaster, and the potential whiplash of…
This approximately 25-minute nighttime show at the Animal Kingdom’s Discovery River lagoon covers 5 Acts that combines laser lights, mist screens, water fountains, glowing floats, coordinating music, and video projection. Excitement was in the air when Disney announced a new nighttime show at Animal Kingdom. That excitement lasted until opening night and quiet murmurs…
Then Navi’ River Journey is located in the Pandora section of Animal Kingdom. This ride consists of guests boarding a boat, similar to Pirates of the Caribbean or It’s a Small World, but in this case, it weaves through a beautiful river of Pandora and the surroundings of the Na’vi on a nearly five-minute journey.…
This 30-minute musical in Animal Kingdom Dionoland, U.S.A. does a great job of condensing Disney’s Finding Nemo movie into a good length for park attendees – just long enough to enjoy and get some much-needed air conditioning (or, I guess, a quick nap). The singing is well-done, and the costumes, props, and sets are all…
