Do These 10 Rides Deserve to Be the WORST at Walt Disney World?

Did you know that you can rate Disney World attractions on AllEars.net?

Big Thunder Mountain Railroad

We have a whole section of our website dedicated to reader reviews of experiences at the parks and resorts, and we’ve found that our followers have some strong Disney opinions!

Today we’re sharing the list of the 10 lowest-rated Disney World rides and asking the question: do they deserve to be the worst?

We’ll start with the lowest ratings and work our way up to the highest. So… which Disney ride is the WORST according to AllEars readers? Well…

Animal Kingdom

TriceraTop Spin — 4.0

…that honor goes to TriceraTop Spin! This spinner ride in Animal Kingdom doesn’t have much going in its favor — it’s a copy of Dumbo, it’s in the direct sun, and it isn’t themed to anything particularly exciting. It’s the only ride on our list to receive a score below 5/10. We’re sorry, TriceraTop Spin!

Introducing: the worst-rated ride in Disney World!

Tomorrowland Speedway — 5.40

Love the smell of gasoline and driving in an unusually slow and bumpy car? Then Tomorrowland Speedway is the ride for you! Many of our readers had the same gripes with the attraction, noting that the ride didn’t feel “futuristic” enough for Tomorrowland. We have to agree, but surprisingly, it wasn’t the lowest-rated of all…

Let’s go for a drive. A really slow drive.

Magic Carpets of Aladdin — 5.60

And yet another spinning ride has made the list — this time over in Magic Kingdom’s Adventureland. (Geez, Magic Kingdom can’t catch a break!) Mostly, people just felt like this ride was a discount version of Dumbo, with one person saying that it was like Dumbo but “without the icon status.” Sorry, Magic Carpets of Aladdin, you just have too much to compete with.

Say hello to the spitting camel!

Astro Orbiter — 5.67

And speaking of spinning, it seems that the thing our readers like less than spinning on the ground is spinning in the air! Astro Orbiter made our list for one big reason — the reviewers REALLY didn’t like that you have to ride an elevator to get to the top. Also, it’s important to note that if you’re trying to ride this with another person, it can get very uncomfortable and cramped. 

Fun or super uncomfortable?

Barnstormer — 6.26

While several readers said that the Barnstormer was a great starter coaster for kids, others suggested that that’s where its positive qualities stopped. The complaints against it were mostly that it was too short or boring when compared to other rides, especially other coasters. We don’t have anything against the Barnstormer, but they can’t all be favorites!

The Barnstormer might be a little bit better if it was longer!

Liberty Square Riverboat — 6.31

If you’re looking for a great place to sit and relax for a few minutes, then you definitely need to check out the Liberty Square Riverboat. If you’re looking for something thrilling or entertaining, our readers think you should go elsewhere. This ride is still in the realm of attractions that the readers don’t typically hate, but they definitely don’t love. 

Time for an easy-going ride around the Rivers of America.

Prince Charming Regal Carrousel — 6.65

There’s something so simple and charming about a ride on a carousel, but apparently, it’s not the favorite of our readers! Those who didn’t like it shared that they thought it wasn’t exciting enough and wasn’t worth a long wait. However, we still had several readers who thought it deserved a much higher rating. Even though it earned a spot on this list, Prince Charming Regal Carrousel still has an overall positive rating, which we can’t argue with!

Is the carrousel worth your time?

Na’vi River Journey — 6.66

Na’vi River Journey in Animal Kingdom‘s Pandora is one of the most stunning rides in Disney World, but many of our readers rated it poorly. Why? Several people thought that the hour-plus wait time was too much for a slow-moving boat ride. However, they did mostly agree that you should ride it at least once to see the stellar shaman animatronic at the end!

Morning, Shaman!

Mission: SPACE — 6.73

Number 10 on our list is one that we honestly expected to find on this list. Coming in with a rating of 6.73/10 is Mission: SPACE, the only Walt Disney World ride to include barf bags! This attraction is generally considered a little “too intense”, and many a guest has been known to feel disoriented afterward.

Do you REALLY want to go on a ride with barf bags?

Alien Swirling Saucers — 6.74

As we get closer to the #1 ride on this list, you’ll start to notice that our readers aren’t very big fans of spinning. The unfortunate thing for this ride is that it’s overshadowed by the two other rides in Toy Story Land. It’s cute and fun, but many of our reviewers stated that it wasn’t worth a long wait. It’s a pretty short ride, so we can’t blame them for feeling that way!

  1. Of all the 4 Dumbo type rides I’m sad that Triceratops Spin came last. Personally I think they all ride exactly the same but this one is the best as it nearly always has only a 5 minute queue compared to much longer for the others.

  2. I agree that these rides aren’t the best or the most fun at Disney World!!!! But I still love all of them!!!! Even if they aren’t my favorite rides!!!! Believe or not even the worst rides at Disney World are still really fun and enjoyable!!!!!

  3. All the Dumbo like rides made the list. Of all of them, I prefer Aladdin. Astro orbiters, I only rode once in California. To me, that’s like a Dumbo ride. I think Disney fans like myself ride something once and then decide if it’s worth standing in the line the next time you go. My parents would not allow me to ride Dumbo as a child due to the long lines. I rode it for the first time on my honeymoon at age 22. My parents were right. I watched Navi on youtube and was underwhelmed. I chose not to stand in that long line. Flight of Passage was worth it. I can understand some of the choices on this list.
