By Leave a Comment

In case you missed it, Country Bear Jamboree is now closed in Magic Kingdom. But don’t worry — it’s coming back!

Yes, you probably enjoy shopping and eating around Disney World, but let’s face it — most people are there for the rides!

EPCOT

We can’t blame you because Disney World is full of both classic and innovative attractions. While many think of Hollywood Studios or Magic Kingdom as the parks with the longest wait times, EPCOT has a couple of rides that pull big crowds of their own.
