Spinning Rides and Queasy Adventures
While I enjoy almost everything at Walt Disney World, I’m not a fan of spinning rides. Even Star Tours and Millennium Falcon: Smugglers Run can make me a little queasy if I ride them too many times. My kids don’t like doing Mad Tea Party with me because I won’t spin the teacup—it’s already dizzying enough! Same goes for Prince Charming Regal Carrousel—no thanks! Carnival-style rides are just not my thing.
Must-Do Attractions (If Time Allows!)
These are some of the rides I’ll always try to fit in, even if I have a busy park day:
The Monorail (yes, it’s transportation, but it’s also an iconic experience!)
Peter Pan’s Flight
The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh
Journey into Imagination with Figment
"it’s a small world"
Millennium Falcon: Smugglers Run
Buzz Lightyear’s Space Ranger Spin
Toy Story Mania!
Slinky Dog Dash
Kilimanjaro Safaris
Mickey & Minnie’s Runaway Railway
Remy’s Ratatouille Adventure
Every visit to Walt Disney World is magical, but this list helps me prioritize what I can’t miss. What’s on your must-do list when you visit the parks?
