The Best Rides To Do In Animal Kingdom

There are certain rides in Animal Kingdom that are so good, you have to do them every time you go.

The first ride I will be talking about today is Dinosaur. On Dinosaur, you will go back in time to rescue the Iguanadon dinosaur before the meteor hits. I love all the twists and turns on this ride. I would recommend doing this ride because it is very thrilling without being a roller coaster.

The next ride I will be talking about IS a roller coaster. Expedition Everest – Legend of the Forbidden Mountain is set in the Himalayas where you are trying to escape the Yeti. Will you be able to escape? You will have to go on this ride to find out!

Kilimanjaro Safari is, as its name suggests, a safari. I love going on this ride because it is really cool to see animals that you would normally never see.

Let’s head over to Pandora! Avatar Flight of Passage is probably one of the best rides in all of Disney World. You will fly on top of a banshee and take a 3D tour of Pandora. This ride makes you feel totally immersed and you really feel like you are in another world.

When you are in Animal Kingdom, make sure that you do not miss out on these rides!

The Haunted Mansion Pre-Show Is Back!

Big changes are happening at Disney World!

Fireworks are returning, masks are optional if you are fully vaccinated, and some pre-shows are coming back. One of the pre-shows that is now back in the parks is The Haunted Mansion pre-show!

The Haunted Mansion pre-show has been closed since the beginning of the pandemic. Now, you get to go back into the creepy room with the four paintings that stretch.

The Haunted Mansion pre-show is not the only pre-show that is returning. The Dinosaur and Mickey and Minnie’s Runaway Railroad pre-shows are also back!

Be sure to go to The Haunted Mansion since you can now see the pre-show!

My Top Five Favorite Rides In Animal Kingdom

Here are my top five favorite rides in Animal Kingdom.

My favorite ride in Animal Kingdom is Dinosaur. On this ride you go back in time to bring back the Iguanadon dinosaur. I like this ride because the seats are very comfortable and it’s an exciting ride.

My second favorite ride is Kilimanjaro Safari. You get to experience seeing animals you wouldn’t see every day and every time you go on the ride, something different can happen. These are the reasons why I love Kilimanjaro Safari so much. ( For a Kilimanjaro Safari Review click here! )

My third favorite ride is Kali River Rapids. On this ride you WILL get wet. You are seated in a round boat with other families and there is one big drop. My advice is to wear a poncho. Well, unless you want to get wet.

My fourth favorite ride is It’s Tough to be a Bug. This is a 4D show where you learn what its like to be a bug. ( I know it’s not a ride but I had to include this one! ) The bugs from the movie Bug’s Life help you along the way.

My fifth favorite ride is Primeval Whirl. This ride is located in Dinoland and spins around a lot. The problems with this ride is that it jolts a lot and spins enough to make you dizzy. The good thing about this ride is I love how fast it goes.

Dinosaur Ride Review

Height Restriction: Must be 40 inches

What I Like About It

Dinosaur is a ride at Animal Kingdom with many scary dinosaurs.  The ride is exciting and lots of fun.  The goal is to find the Iguanadon dinosaur to bring it back with you, but everything goes wrong.  There is also a hidden Mickey at the beginning of the ride.

HOLD TIGHT!

What I Don’t Like About It

The ride jerks around A LOT.  Even though you have a seat belt it still is very jumpy.  Hold the bars or a parent.
