Pixar Pal-A-Round – Swinging

Absolutely terrible experience. All 4 employees were so rude to us. No clear signage for direction. Specifically went to the non spinning side and was told after we finished spinning in the air that both sides spin. This is in contradiction to the 4 signs posted that say other wise. We wouldn’t have got on if we had known this. Triggered my anxiety to the max as this is one thing I really cannot handle due to falling down the stairs and damaging my c3 and c15. There should have been warning signs, and if they change the rules while you’re in line, they should tell you what to expect while you get on. A big “thanks for nothing” to everyone working in that area.

My daughters loved this! I didn't care for the swinging car but my daughters sure did! The view was amazing from up that high! Loaded and unloaded much faster than a regular ferris wheel!

A rose by any other name. I know they've changed the name now, but this ride still offers classic ferris wheel views. Watch out for (or make sure you get if that's your thing) the sliding cages. Nice views of the park, neighboring Disneyland, and Anaheim.

This is 5 stars based solely on the views! You can go for a old school fixed basket or one which swings and moves as the wheel rotates. Either way you'll love the views of California Adventure and time it rights and the lights make everything even more magical.
