This Is Where You Can Ride A Horse Drawn Carriage At Disney World

At Disney World there are tons of different activities that you can do, but did you know you can ride a horse drawn carriage?

At my last trip to Disney World, I got to ride a horse drawn carriage at Disney’s Port Orleans Resort-Riverside.

The carriage ride is twenty five minutes around Disney’s Port Orleans. As we passed by, people would smile and wave at us.

Our coachman told us that we could get a view of either Riverside or the French Quarter. We wanted to see the French Quarter since we were not staying there.

I loved the way the outside of the French Quarter looked because the walls were so colorful!

The ride was awkward at times because we did not know what to talk to the coachman about, so I would recommend to think of questions to ask the coachman. Also, sometimes our horse would go off the path because he would need to use the bathroom. I am just warning you so you do not start freaking out if the horse goes off the main path.

Overall, I found the carriage ride to be a lot of fun and would recommend it if you are staying at Disney’s Port Orleans so you can see more of the resort.

An Activity You Did Not Know You Can Do In Magic Kingdom

No matter how many times you have gone to Disney World, there always seems to be activities that are still waiting to be discovered. Getting a Disney Silhouette Portrait is one of these activities.

In Main Street USA, there is a stand where you can get your portrait done.

You might be wondering, what is a Silhouette Portrait? A Silhouette Portrait is a portrait that an artist hand draws on black card stock. Then, the artist will cut it out and place it on a white background.

The whole process is really cool to watch and how many people can say they have gotten a silhouette portrait from Magic Kingdom?

There is also almost never a line for this activity, so you will not have to wait long. The process also does not take long. You will have to sit for two minutes so the artist can draw and then you will have to wait a couple minutes for the portrait to be cut out and mat.

We got our own silhouette portrait and it is hanging on the wall in our house.

Make sure to try this activity in Magic Kingdom!
