Defiinitely check out the Rockin' Roller Coaster at MGM. It's an Aerosmith-themed ride, where the coaster cars are designed to look like stretch limosuines. What's even better is that the ride is inside in the air conditioning, and the whole coaster ride is in the dark, with neon signs and such that fly by you during the ride. Watch out for the takeoff, you go from 0-70 in something like 5 seconds.

Disney is weak, Universal Studios > Disney.

john_713 · 01-11-2005, 03:44 AM

Disney is great if you've never been before if your an adult. Otherwise it's only the rides that really keep me going back. It depends what you are looking for the rides that have already been mentioned are the best but the likes of splash mountain and big thunder mountain in the magic kingdom can't be missed. And then of course there is just the 'magic' of disney, I always get a buzz when i go there, sad i know but it happens

If terrifying rides are what your looking for and you have a day free try Universal Islands of adventure, they will far surpass disney for simple hair raising factor. However this park along with Universal studios can take a couple of days on it's own so perhaps better to leave it and do disney properly this time!

Hope you have a good time!

ICER · 01-11-2005, 03:51 AM

My all time favorite Disney ride is the 'Pirates of the Caribbean.' But I think that's only on the west coast.

Give the 'Hulk' a try at MGM ( I think) its suppose to be awesome

john_713 · 01-11-2005, 05:45 AM

I'm pretty sure there is pirates of the carribean in florida. Not sure which park though.

Also are you sure hulk is at mgm? There is one in unversal and it is awesome, bit strange to have one in both parks?

Captain Nemo · 01-11-2005, 05:53 AM

Pirates is in the Magic Kingdom in Florida, and the Hulk is at Universal, not
MGM

ObieX · 01-11-2005, 05:55 AM

Don't forget to kick one of the cartoon characters in the butt. Thats the best ride ever.

Francis · 01-11-2005, 06:05 AM

space mountain, save the train ride around the park when your are tired. hit the monorail and sit with the driver up front.

yeah there's a pirates of the carribean in Florida. I think it's in Disney but it may be in Epcot. I always liked Thunder Mountain Railroad and Space Mountain. Disney is a cool place.. you can let loose and let the kid come out again without anyone looking at you like you're crazy. Have fun mate, and just remember.. it rains about 5:00 every day so take the umbrella

Stay away from Downtown Disney unless you are independently wealthy. You can spend a LOT of money FAST there.

veruca · 01-11-2005, 08:21 AM

hrm, fave ride at the Magic Kingdom is Thunder Mountain, Epcot is fun, but only when you "drink around the world" and try drinks at every country. Mgm, the rockin' roller coaster is the best, and I havn't been to animal kingdom in a few years, but when I was there, the water ride was awesome and very wet.
Islands of adventure at Univeral is the best park, if you are into roller coasters. Seuss Landing is my favorite, but i am lame and love dr. seuss, i hate the actual universal studios park, it's boring
You should go to gatorland, it's so old skool Florida.
Are you renting a car? All the Disney hotels are worth a visit, but then I like looking at themed hotels.the Grand Floridian is my favorite, and you can actually get to it on teh monorail to disney.
I was born and raised here in Orlando, so if you ahve any questions on restaraunts or tourist stuff, please ask, i'll be happy to help

santafe5000 · 01-11-2005, 08:45 AM

Go to the Disney website and it will tell you what rides are down for mantainence, and what rides are being replaced.
Mostly just have fun.
