Everyone that goes to Disney World has favorite rides. The rides that make you smile bigger than you ever thought possible and feel immensely happy. I'd bet that one of these rides is your favorite.
1. Space Mountain
No matter what age you are, Space Mountain is amazing. The darkness and speed of the ride makes you feel like you're actually blasting off right into space! I've ridden this ride 10 times in a row and it never ever gets old.
2. Jungle Cruise
Okay, so you ride Space Mountain for the thrills, but you ride Jungle Cruise for the kicks and giggles. Is it fast paced? No. Is it high-tech? Definitely not. But are the jokes good?? Okay, not really. But they're endearing and that's what really counts!
3. Expedition Everest
Another one of those thrilling coasters! Anyone who has ridden it will tell you that there are two surprises, and one of them will almost take your head off.
4. Star Tours
This one is definitely for those Star Wars fans out there! It's gotten a few upgrades most recently, so it's at the best it's almost ever been! Best part of the new Star Tours? No ride is ever the same!
5. Splash Mountain
Splash Mountain is what you'd get if you combined Space Mountain and Jungle Cruise. A laughable experience that will, at times, put you on the edge of your seat (if only to keep from getting wet).
6. Haunted Mansion
Haunted Mansion is a spooky experience the whole family can enjoy! But be careful - you might find yourself going home with a hitch hiking ghost!
7. Spaceship Earth
OK, OK so maybe I'm a little biased because I'm a History major. But, I have always loved Spaceship Earth! The idea of getting to go into, what I lovingly called, The Golf Ball, ride around and learn about history, and then play around a little and discover stuff about technology is pretty awesome to me!
8. Pirates of the Caribbean
Okay, Pirates of the Caribbean can be hokey. Some people might not like the animatronics and might find the whole thing unbelievable, and maybe even a little annoying after the third round of "Yo Ho." But to the true Disney faithfuls, Pirates is a classic and a tradition. From wanting the red head to trying convince the dog to come to you, everyone loves Pirates.
9. Soarin'
Soarin' is a much more recent addition to Disney World, but it has swiftly made its way into our hearts. On this amazing ride you fly all over, and even out of, this world! The scents, wind, and screen make it look and feel all too real.
10. Kilimanjaro Safaris
Kilimanjaro Safaris is one of those rides that you feel like someone definitely should have gotten a promotion for thinking up. Honestly, who thinks of putting an African safari in the middle of Florida?! It's not just that you get to see elephants, hippos, lions, tigers, cheetahs, zebras, giraffes, wart hogs, ostriches, and much more - it honestly looks like any normal American would imagine the African safari looking. Right down to the unstable bridges.
