Hey guys, it’s Sam with Under The Mouse Ears. You know - one of my absolute favorite things about Disney World is what I call “Low Fi Rides”. While it rarely makes anybody’s MUST DO list, it’s always something easy to do to fill up your WDW Experience with some zero to short wait times, not to mention a great way to check out some super historic and classic attractions.
I already told you my number 3. Walt Disney's Carousel of Progress.
My number 2 Super low-Fi ride at Disney World is the Tomorrowland Transit Authority's Peoplemover. This slow moving train-like ride is the perfect way to relax, see a huge chunk of Tomorrowland in the Magic Kingdom, plus a behind the scenes window into some other attractions.
Originally opened in 1975, its undergone many revisions through the years, but still remarkably similar to it's humble beginnings. It opens with a slow and sweeping turn near the entrance to Tomorrowland and enters a tunnel where guests can actually see Walt Disney's original model for EPCOT.
Leaving the north show building, you'll catch a view of some amateur racers at the Speedway, later crossing over the Walt Disney World Railroad tracks, then entering the dome housing Space Mountain. Inside you'll see guests' inching up the hills of the roller coaster, about to blast off for a ride they'll never forget..
From there you'll see a quick view of the Carousel Of Progress, and through a tunnel giving you a view inside Buzz Lightyear's Space Ranger Spin. There's a couple more easter eggs to look for, notably the sign that reads "Starport Seven Five", a reference to the year the attraction originally opened. For me, it's always a great way to take a load off and enjoy some of slower and older perks the legendary theme park has to offer.
