How fast is Space Mountain? Is Tower of Terror too scary? Which rides might cause motion sickness? Our ride guides have all the information you need to plan your perfect trip.

A Note About Darkness and Noise at Disney and Universal Rides

Generally, most indoor rides are dark, and almost all attractions are loud - kind of like a movie theater.

Additionally, the atmosphere in queues and preshows try to immerse guests in the world of the attraction and build expectation.

And finally, Disney World and Universal are filled with so much stimulus - sights, sounds, other people, characters - that children are often overwhelmed.

Be prepared to encourage nervous younger guests about particular rides. Even some mild Disney World attractions that are designed for the whole family can be intimidating.
