Big Thunder Mountain Railroad

Big Thunder seems underrated, or it’s not high on people’s must ride list when the topic of Disneyland comes up, but it’s fantastic! The queue always moved fairly quickly, the ride itself is a decent length, and gives such a thrill while operating smoothly. This is a can’t miss attraction, and probably ok for all ages. I didn’t see anyone come off without a grin from ear to ear. *Motion sickness prone people should have no issue here!

This one was a surprise this trip. I’ve gone on it before but it was moth, fast, and had some great drops. The Lightning Lane pass was very helpful on this one as well went straight to the front. Great ride and a great time.

This is a great ride in Disneyland! The setting of the ride is done really well so you really feel like you're on a rail cart in the Old West. The staff are friendly and accommodating, and the line passes right next to the ride so you can watch other people enjoying themselves while you wait. This is one of my family's go-to rides in the park; great for the whole family!

This is the wildest ride in the wilderness! When they say, Hold on to your hats and glasses.... DO IT.... It's a fast rolling train with lots of dips and turns to throw you for a loop. A true Disney classic for sure... The back is the best spot, in my opinion, as it provides a bit of weightless feeling at times. Try it....

Every time we head to the park my son has to make sure we ride Indy at least once. He absolutely loves this ride. It is fun but unfortunately I think some times the ride is so busy it tends to break down at some point every time we are there. The line is always fairly long but the que is neat and very visually appealing so plenty to look at and pass the time while in line. Even on warm days it always seems a bit cooler in the area since it is a shaded area of the park. Indiana Jones is definitely considered an e-ticket ride, it is fast and fun but fairly smooth.

Such an amazing ride that you can go over and over again. Big Thunder Mountain is another one of my favorite ride at Disneyland. The standby lines can take long but on a good day like when I went, there was like only a 5 minute wait. It's so much fun and of course you should try to take pictures during the ride since this is like a Rollercoaster. I also took off my hat since I wasn't want to take the risk of losing my Project Rock hat.. The staff are friendly and it will feel like only a second once the ride is over. We were able to go twice since the day we went before Halloween Fest became live didn't have a lot of people at the theme park.
