Dumbo

The Ultimate Disney Classic is Dumbo the Flying Elephant. Loved by everyone including the young and old. Lines are much quicker now there are 2 carousels. Not one you need to get a Fastpass for unless the park is extremely busy.

Carousel of Progress

An often overlooked Disney Classic. Designed by Walt himself for the 1964 New York World’s Fair. Most readers will consider this a controversial choice but I like it! Rarely grabs a crowd but a catchy theme tune, good audio-animatronics & cool air conditioning make this a relaxing break.

Splash Mountain

Still, the greatest log flume and I have even been rescued from it after it broke down! Unfortunately, the cast member wouldn’t let me film my backstage escape route.

Song of the South is not one of the most widely known Disney Films but it does not matter. The big drop is great and shouldn’t be missed. You should get a Fastpass for this one.

Big Thunder Mountain

We used to have meeting talking Mickey Mouse in this article. However, he no longer talks so a new attraction had to be added!

A big welcome to our Top 5 Attractions at The Magic Kingdom to Big Thunder Mountain.

Big Thunder Mountain is perhaps the best family coaster at any theme park, although the version in some other Disney Parks is better. Following its 2016 refurbishment the ride experince has improved.

Why wasn’t it in our original list?

Pass!

Seven Dwarfs Mine Train

The long lines say it all the Seven Dwarfs Mine Train is a popular attraction. However, is it worth a 4 hour wait in a standby line?

A unique rocking rollercoaster & a superb audio-animatronic mine scene. This ride appeals to all the family but the rollercoaster is quite fast although very brief.

Perhaps a bit too new to be called a classic ride but it soon will be. Fastpass is essential or expect a very long wait.
