With more theme parks and attraction in one spot, Orlando brings alot of thrill seekers looking for some incredible roller coasters and rides. Our latest Top 10 List is just for those thrill seekers. We picked our favorite thrill rides at all of the Orlando Parks just for you.
#10. Space Mountain at Magic Kingdom - This roller coaster at Magic Kingdom is just a classic. The thrill is being in the dark and all of the tight spins and drops. For roller coaster buffs, Space Mountain is just plain fun. This coaster is a good one for thrill seekers to bring little thrill seekers for their first roller coaster experience.
#9. Expedition Everest at Disney's Animal Kingdom Theme Park - The newest coaster at Walt Disney World is Expedition Everest. This coaster combines the three favorite thrills at Magic Kingdom into one. You have the tight spins and drops like Space Mountain, train track ride experience similar to Big Thunder Mountain, and a huge drop like Splash Mountain. Add a scary Yeti and you will be sure to scream!
#8. Kraken at Sea World - Just the name should send chills up your spine, especially after the recent Pirates of the Caribbean movies. With your feet dangling, the Kraken will take you on inverted loops, spins and drops around the Sea World park. Kraken is the tallest and fastest roller coaster in Orlando.
#7. Doctor Doom's Fearfall at Islands of Adventure - Just watching this ride gives most people googebumps. You are strapped in, shot up in the sky and then...drop! You can hear the screams from Dr. Doom's Fear Fall around Islands of Adventure. This is a great ride and an incredible view.
#6. Rock 'n' Roller Coaster Starring Aerosmith at Disney's Hollywood Studios - If you love Aerosmith, rock and roll, and roller coasters, this is the ride for you. You ride in a super stretch limo with 125 speaker 24 sub-woofer sound system, as you jam to Aerosmith hits! This coaster has a great launch from 0-60 mph in less than 3 seconds with lots of great twists and turns.
#5. Dueling Dragons...Soon to Be Dragon Challenge at Islands of Adventure - One of our agents help built Dueling Dragons, so I know he is partial to this thrill ride. He is not alone, Dueling Dragons turned into one of the most popular coasters in Orlando very quickly. You can choose one of two dragons called Fire or Ice and take a thrill ride of a lifetime with drops, loops and twists. You even get a close call as the dragons duke it out. Dueling Dragons (soon to be Dragon Challenge) is must do thrill - two times.
#4. Tower of Terror at Disney's Hollywood Studios - Combine a haunted hotel and a few drops in an elevator and you will have lots of screams. Tower of Terror has been a long time thrill ride favorite in Orlando. Disney likes to kick up the thrills a little bit as they have changed the drop sequences may times on this ride, so the guest never knows what will happen next. Once you ride Tower of Terror, you will never look at an elevator the same.
#3. Manta at Sea World - This new sleek coaster opened recently and is already on the map for best coasters in the world. Manta allows you to feel like you are the ray as you swoop and dive around the Sea World park coming inches from water. The other thrill about Manta is the fact that you are lying on your stomach face down on this coaster. It is a new kinda of thrill in Orlando - check it out.
#2. Hollywood Rip Ride Rockit at Universal Studios - The Universal Studios Theme Parks know how to build roller coaster. This brand new roller coaster takes you on a rockin good time through Universal Studios with twists, inverts, and drops. Even the 1st climb straight up gets your blood pumping. All along the way you are rocking to your favorite type music. This is a great new roller coaster in the line up of Orlando thrill rides.
#1. The Incredible Hulk at Islands of Adventure - Even with a new exciting roller coaster like Hollywood, Rip, Ride and Rockit, our thrill fans still voted Hulk as the top thrill ride in Orlando. There is just something about this big green coaster at Islands of Adventure that causes big screams. I am sure it has nothing to do with the fact that you launch from 0 to 40 mph in 2 seconds and are shot right into a loop. Whatever the reason, for thrill seekers in Orlando, Hulk is a must do.
