Intense. Can be really scary

motion sickness

The OG Harry Potter ride has fallen by the wayside in favor of the newer rides, but this ride is still a lot of fun. The unique ride system is still a wonder, and if nothing else, it’s worth it just to walk through the queue which happens to be Hogwart’s Castle. If the ride seems a bit intimidating, at least walk the queue.

Pros:

One of the most unique rides you’ll go on; Hogwart’s Castle is amazing.

Cons:

Can make you nauseous from all the screens and moving around.

The queue is Fantastic and a must do experience for any Potterhead. The ride however is not for the faint of stomach . . . I would be cautious if you have a history of migraines as I found this ride very triggering and had to close my eyes several times and take a good twenty minutes recovery time afterwards.

Pros:

A magical must see queue that's amazing for photos

Cons:

Dated animatronics Very rough ride movement Simulations that make even stronger stomachs queasy

The queue is unmatched, who hasn't dreamed of walking through Hogwarts? It's worth doing multiple times just to experience everything (we had express pass so could have even missed some details). The ride itself it good, it's not as thrilling as the coasters but still very immersive and unique- you'll never ride anything else quite like it!

Pros:

Hogwarts, the queue, fun ride

Cons:

I can see how it gives people motion sickness,

It's Hogwarts! The queue alone is worth your time! The ride is well done, too.

Pros:

Cons:

bag check at the beginning is awkward, and the single rider line is hard to find

Part simulator, part dark ride, part motion ride, I mean what more could you really ask for? The combination of 3D screens and animatronics is perfectly balanced. I also really like the variety of the ride, where you aren't JUST in one "location" but travel through several different areas, encountering a range of wizards, witches, and creatures! This ride does a great job of gathering all the elements that really make Harry Potter so magical.

Pros:

The entire ride and queue is mind blowing.

Cons:

The ride vehicle and 3D effects may not be ideal for everyone.
