Hands down my least favorite attraction at Disney. I know that is considered Disney sacrilege but I really can’t stand this ride. The song on repeat makes me nuts and the dolls are extremely creepy. All I can think of is the scene from the Johnny Depp version of Charlie and the chocolate factory where the dolls catch on fire and keep singing and dancing while the burn and melt.
The ride just goes on forever and never really has any redeeming qualities
Pros:
I guess maybe that it’s iconic?? 😬Cons:
The whole thingReviewed by Un1v3rs4lStud10S Review Date: 07/11/2022

I got lucky, I didn't get the song stuck in my head. Other than that, it was kind of boring, the dolls are kind of creepy, and even the song didn't get stuck in my head, it was still annoying. The only reason we rode this was because it is a huge icon of Walt Disney World.
Pros:
It's relaxing.Cons:
The dolls can be creepy, it can be boring, and the song will most likely get stuck in your head. All day long. Maybe even for your whole trip, and the following week, the following month, and the following year.Reviewed by TeacherManJoe Review Date: 06/23/2022

Ahhhhhhhhhh, small world. What a delightful concoction of nostalgia, high quality, and constant ear-work inducing music.
But really, it does not really get much (or any?) more classic Disney than It’s a Small World. With a melding of beautiful messages of global community, impressively artistic animatronics, and a relaxing boat ride (no, the song does not get a compliment though I LOVE it), Small World has all you could want out of a Disney ride. A classic that is still heartwarming and excellent today!
Pros:
Just a straight up classic Great message about globalism Excellent artistically-created animatronicsCons:
The ever-controversial song (I happen to love the song, but I know that it is a major con for some)Reviewed by Mariet Review Date: 05/17/2022

A Disney classic!! I feel it is a must do for those taking their first trip to WDW. A lot of people think of this as a kiddie ride, but it is nice and relaxing (although the song may not make it that way for some through the ride). The song does not get on my nerves, like it does with some people. I just sit back and sing along quietly with the Small World kids.
Pros:
Classic Disney rideCons:

What can I say … I tried. The first 3 or 4 times the song played I did ok. As the ride went on …. And on …. I was literally feeling anxious and started feeling like the ride would never end!! I am not normally prone to anxiety so it was not an enjoyable time!!
Pros:
Other than the music enjoyed the different sets.Cons:
The song plays dozens and dozens of times! It felt like a nightmare by the end!Reviewed by Anonymous Review Date: 02/09/2022

Its a small world is a lovely attraction but they are two cons: 1. The song-its so annoying and repetitive. And 2. The animatronics scare me- there just plain creepy and i have a fear of animatronics.
Pros:
The boat ride, the relaxingness and the concept.Cons:
The animatronics- they scare me. The song-so annoying.Reviewed by MJandJimmy Review Date: 01/26/2022

Such an awesome ride with so much history.
Singing the song yet?
No?
You are now, aren't you..... 🙂
Pros:
The sassy leopard holding the umbrella. Really is my spirit animal. Also all the awesome details to costumes and scenes. But seriously though...sassy leopard.Cons:
Okay. The song can get stuck in your head. But you are required to go and let it get stuck in your head. Those are the rules.Reviewed by Anonymous Review Date: 11/22/2021

This ride is fantastic. So much detail and vibrant color. Also it's a classic with history behind it. You have to ride this at least once but I'll gladly ride it many times over even with the earworm song.
