Default Favorite Ride Period

This is gonna be a tough one...for all of you!



Bottom line, what is your favorite ride in all of WDW?

I have so many I love, and would be disappointed if I didn't get to ride on during a visit. TTA, Pirates, HM, Test Track, Space Mountain, and on and on...

But my #1 is
Spaceship Earth!

I rode this the first time when I was 15 and each time I ride it I feel the same. It sounds corny as heck but that first ride in '95 changed my life! I love that ride mostly because of the feeling I get each time I ride it. I also love the long time of the ride, the animatronics, and the ability to hear it in different languages now. I don't have a negative thing to say about it...other than it's not long enough. Why should universe of energy get 35 min and SE only gets 13? lol...

So let's hear it..favorite ride in all of WDW!

Actually, it's a very easy question for me. My favorite ride in all of WDW is Kilimanjaro Safaris.

14 days until my family returns to WDW. We havent been since 2007 so we havent tried TSM or the new Star Tours... but based on what we have experienced my favorite would be the American Experience. Just something about the pavilion inside with all the nations flags, the pre show with the singers, and then the main show. If you dont leave this attraction proud to be an American you must have slept thru it!

This is a hard question. I am torn between 3 rides, HM, POTC, and SE. I'm going with POTC.

I have 4 kids (Disney nuts, all) and 7 (and a half) grandkids (ditto on the nuts!)...and love them all...no favorites...I have a special memory of each of the 11, on a WDW ride, so I have at least 11 favorites....Oh, I have one wife, and she is my favorite! (47 years next week) So our favorite, for the 11 reasons above, and other special memories, is POTC.

I can't just have one, it's WDW! I think it'll be a lot better if I just make a list: Splash Mountain, Big Thunder Mountain, Buzz, POTC, HM, Jungle Cruise, Tea Cups, Test Track, Soarin', Figment, Spaceship Earth, Rockin' Roller Coaster, Tower of Terror, The Great Movie Ride, Star Tours, Toy Story Mania, Backlot Tour, Epedition Everest, and Killimanjaro Safaris. I believe those are all my main favorites!

Space Mountain. I know it's not the biggest thrill or most technological ride, but very nostalgic for me and it's just fun.

I would have said Spaceship Earth a few years ago, during the Jeremy Irons reign, but I'm not a big fan of the new version. I might have to go with Peter Pan. Classic Disney, and it has that magical feel to it
