I have two favorite "overlooked" attractions.

At MGM, my kids really enjoyed the "Tough to be a Bug" playground. They are 14, 12 and 9 and of course it was the 9 year old who pestered us into going there. But all the kids had fun there.

At MK one night (when the park closed at 9), after Wishes we went into the movie theatre (the last building on the left before you get to the underpass and leave MK.) We sat all by ourselves and watched cartoons (that were laugh out loud funny) for 45 minutes.
 
My fiance LOVES Spaceship Earth. He just can't get enough of it! :rotfl2:
 
I would have to say mine is Tom Sawyer Island. Not sure how overlooked it is, but it is one of my favorite attractions. I love going through all the caves. I guess it gives back the memories of when I was younger, and would run through the whole island.

Put me down for Carousel of Progress and Tomorrowland Transportation Authority.

We really enjoyed those, too. We were fortunate to be able to spend a lot of time at the MK. We had a day where we spent a whole lot of time at Tomorrowland. Between using multiple FPs for Space Mountain and Buzz, we rode the Astroorbiter, TTA and saw COP.

I saw COP as a very young girl at the NY world's fair. I would love to see what the last scene was like in 1964!
 
tomorrowland transit. It is so relaxing to sit there after a long day and just go around, around, around, around.....they never kick you off.
 
I would have to agree w/everyone about the TTA. So relaxing. And, I don't know how "overlooked" it is, but I know a lot of people don't like the new version, but I just love the Enchanted Tiki Room. I can sit through that show and sing along several times! :rolleyes1
 
In the MK definately TTA. I LOVE this ride. I always sit on it and go round and round while my DH rides SpaceMnt.
At EPCOT- LWTL I love this ride it's so relaxing and educational and fun to learn!

That's the exact two I was thinking about. EMH was so crowded a couple of weeks ago we did these 2 and really enjoyed them!!! :goodvibes
 
It might be goofy, but for some reason I like Living With The Land... and I have to agree with EVERYONE else about TTA!
 
Love TTA for a nice quiet ride to sit and relax. Also like River of Mexico in Epcot.

My favorite 'overlooked' attraction is The American Adventure at Epcot. Gets me everytime :sad1:
 
TTA -- what better place to sit and take a much needed rest. :Pinkbounc
 
Got to agree Tomorrowland Transportation Authority. Easy to get on, relax, and plan out your next move. Also its one of the few rides my DW will go on. :rotfl:


:cool1:
 
Rio de Tiempo.

You wouldn't believe how many people I've talked to about WDW who've never even heard of it. I always do it closer to the end of the day because I think it's relaxing and soothing, plus the ride itself is very pretty, lots of great foliage. I like the "market" scene.

I also find that a lot of people have never heard of Maelstrom. I always tell them they're really missing out on a fun ride!
 
Flights of Wonder at AK is my favorite. The show itself is cute, and the birds are always a joy to watch. Several of them fly over the audience, sometimes even lightly skimming the tops of peoples' heads. It's a bit of a thrill when it happens to you! When I retire and move to Orlando, I've decided that I want to be a bird holder at this show! :duck:

Put me down for those too. I wonder if the (few) other people I've seen on them are also DISers?
 
I'm another one for TTA. But we better stop talking about it before everyone else starts going on it too!! :rotfl: I think this is the only ride on property that they will let you stay on it all day long if you wanted to. :cheer2: :cheer2:
 
Another vote for the Tomorrowland Transit Authority!
