Every Disney Dad's Favorite Ride in Disney World

Disney dads know how to have a grand time in Disney World!

Sage is a New Disney Dad!

Disney dads really get into character when they walk into a Disney park. They’re prepped and ready to act like a kid again and enjoy every moment of their trip. There happen to be a few rides that make us think of the ultimate Disney dad rides. These are the rides that dads really let loose on and put on their best Disney acts. And we have to wonder if you agree!

We’re taking a look at the wait times in Disney World on June 1st, 2024, and for each park, we’ll tell you which ride makes us think of all the Disney dads out there!

Magic Kingdom

Big Thunder Mountain Railroad

Over in Magic Kingdom, Big Thunder Mountain Railroad screams “Disney dad” to us. We know you Disney dads are over on this ride quoting the whole intro by heart. You can’t lie to us and say you don’t yell “This here’s the wildest ride in the wilderness” every time it’s said over the speaker, and honestly, we don’t blame you (we do it too)!

Epcot

Living with the Land

While Disney dads are ready to hustle through the parks, they do enjoy a nice break from the Florida heat. We know Living with the Land and Spaceship Earth are secretly their favorite EPCOT rides thanks to the slow motion, air conditioning, and educational nature of the rides. (Sorry, Cosmic Rewind.)

Disney’s Animal Kingdom

It’s Tough to Be a Bug

It’s Tough to Be a Bug is practically the ultimate Disney dad joke. No, it’s not technically a ride, but we don’t know many Disney dads (of older children) who will miss out on the opportunity to scare their kids with cockroaches, spiders, and smelly stink bugs. For those who don’t know, and to try to spare you some torment without any spoilers, this show is NOT just 3-D.

Disney’s Hollywood Studios

Slinky Dog Dash

Ah, Disney’s Hollywood Studios, this park is a bit trickier. Star Wars dads will love Millennium Falcon: Smugglers Run because they can get the whole family to participate in some stressful family bonding. Millennial Disney Dads may find that Toy Story Mania is their favorite ride because it reminds them of their childhood best friends Woody and Buzz, and they can try to beat their family members in a friendly competition for bragging rights.
