Our Shanghai Disneyland ride guide reviews every attraction in Disney’s newest theme park, with tips for doing everything efficiently, and our numerical scores for each attraction, show, and other experiences. (All presented in a spoiler-free fashion.) We cover which attractions are cloned from other parks, which are unique to China, language barrier issues, and which
Yesterday was the last day for ‘A Table is Waiting’ at Tokyo DisneySea. After its contemporaries ended their runs, with the park losing the brilliant Legend of Mythica, Mystic Rhythms, and BraviSEAmo, this is like an end of an entertainment era at Tokyo DisneySea. For those unfamiliar with it, A Table is Waiting was a
Mickey’s Royal Friendship Faire is the newest Cinderella Castle daytime stage show in Magic Kingdom at Walt Disney World, having debuted in Summer 2016. This post features photos of the show, my review of it, and viewing tips for best-experiencing Mickey’s Royal Friendship Faire. This isn’t a spoiler-free review given that it has photos, but
This post offers a mostly spoiler-free review of Soarin’ Around the World, which debuted recently at Epcot and Disney California Adventure, comparing it to Soarin’ Over California, and providing general thoughts on the strengths and weaknesses of the attraction. If you want to get technical, it’s actually a review of Soaring Over the Horizon at

In this post, I review the new entertainment, plus take a quick look at enhancements to the Haunted Mansion and Matterhorn that helped kick off the Diamond Celebration. One thing is
There’s a new trackless dark ride in the Walt Disney Studios Park at Disneyland Paris based on Ratatouille, in a ‘Streets of Paris’ mini-land that has the potential to turn around that much-maligned park. But does it? We’ll take a look in this spoiler-free ride review of Ratatouille: L’Aventure Totalement Toquée de Rémy (Ratatouille: The
Country Bear Vacation Hoedown was the summer overlay to Country Bear Jamboree at Walt Disney World and Disneyland that has been retired, and a similar show, Vacation Jamboree, is the current summer overlay at Tokyo Disneyland. As a huge Country Bear Jamboree fan, I figured I owed it to other fans of the attraction by
Over the weekend, The Legend of Mythica concluded its long run at Tokyo DisneySea. Having been shown for 8 years, it far outlasted just about any other show at Tokyo Disney Resort, which typically swaps out its entertainment after a few years at most. It lasted this long for good reason: it was one of
Disney Parks have tons of attractions, but often overlooked are the live action shows and spectaculars that are not actual rides. There are numerous shows and spectaculars at Walt Disney World, Disneyland, Disneyland Paris, Tokyo Disney Resort, and Hong Kong Disneyland. Some of these are time-honored favorites, running for decades and still holding strong in
It’s hard to list Disney’s 10 best rides. Disney has hundreds attractions in Walt Disney World, Disneyland, Paris, Tokyo, Hong Kong, and Shanghai, so it’s quite the list from which to choose. Obviously, not all of these attractions were created equally. At their best, Disney attractions are timeless classics that have multi-generational appeal. At their
