WDW Ride Guide Podcast

The Gran Fiesta Tour may be one of the most relaxing rides in the parks. Some have said this ride is the Mexican cousin to It’s a Small World, and the two boat rides are similar in many respects. At Walt Disney World, both take place indoors, both use the same ride system, both have catchy theme music, and both offer a pleasant experience for the whole family.

Welcome to Test Track, your chance to take a car from building a design to burning rubber on the track. This wonderful ride is full of rich detail from the moment you walk into the giant ride complex, till the last minute you wander through the showroom. Whether you have small children in your group, thrill seeking young riders, or senior riders looking for a fun time, Test Track has something for everyone. This combination of interactive queue, dark ride, and high thrills is a ride you don’t want to miss on your next Walt Disney World vacation.

Expedition Everest, Rock ’n’ Roller Coaster Starring Aerosmith, and Test Track are three of the most thrilling attractions in all of Walt Disney World.  These attractions whisk you through exciting environments at speeds up to 65 mph!  Thrill seekers live for inversions, loops, and 80 foot drops, however, chances are you will be visiting Walt […]

What do you do to beat the heat? Well, there are some great rides you can enjoy without long waits, and some rides that give you a cool sanctuary from the outside heat. Today, I've invited Tim Miller to join us so that we can give you two distinct Top 5 lists. Be sure and listen to the podcast for full details as Tim and I have fun comparing our favorites.

Today is all about you the listener! I have been asking for your questions, comments, and feedback since we first started the podcast.

Righteous, righteous! Hello dudes and dudettes and welcome to the coolest show this side of the Pacific Ocean. This is Turtle Talk with Crush! If you have ever wanted to ask a turtle what he likes to eat, how old he is, or how many offspring he has, then get ready to flip out because the Crush man is here to blow your mind. Don’t just take my word for it though. Today, we have some special little dudes in the house to tell you what makes this show totally awesome. Before I bring them out, let me set the stage for what you can expect.

This week we are heading over to Epcot to find Nemo and his friends. Now, Epcot may not be the first place that comes to mind when you think about fun activities for small children in your group, but hopefully today’s podcast will help change that. The Seas with Nemo & Friends has more to explore than many aquariums across the country.

There is a big blue world awaiting you at Disney’s Animal Kingdom. A world full of familiar characters like Nemo, Marlin, Dory, Crush, and Mr. Ray. However, in this world, the characters come to life in a whole new way. Welcome to Finding Nemo - The Musical, an incredibly creative combination of elaborate stages, giant puppets and Broadway level performers. If you have never seen this show before, it is hard to truly appreciate the talent that is on display here inside a theme park. The way these actors and singers bring the big blue world to life is second to none. Before I get too far ahead of myself though, let’s swim back to the beginning of the theater and the shows that came before.

A sea of blackness envelops the lagoon. The deep bass of drums begins to beat, slowly at first, then quickly builds into a crescendo until, boom! A single shot of light flies like a comet, illuminating the sky above. Next, two large bursts of red explode high up above and the story of IllumiNations: Reflections of Earth has begun!

If you have a Disney trip coming up soon, today’s ride is one you definitely want to have a Fastpass+ reservation for.  If you are just dreaming about your next Disney vacation, then today will hopefully be a fun way to keep the magic alive until you can experience the ride in person. Last week […]
