So lately I've been reading a lot about the Winnie the Pooh ride. It seems really cute and fun but I'm not sure if DF and I would look silly riding it. :confused3 Is it a kiddie ride (like Dumbo) or more of an all ages type ride? Does anybody have any opinions of it? pics? TIA! :flower3:

1- Hundreds of Adults with no children in tow ride it every day.
2- Dumbo is not necessarily only a "kiddie ride" either.
3- All ages, yes.
4- We LOVE this creative attraction!
(And we are ever so much more than 20.) ;)

Thanks Robo! :thumbsup2 I didn't really mean Dumbo is only a kiddie ride. it's just one that i haven't rode since i was 12! :laughing: I just didn't know how to word my concern of being the only adults on the ride without kids. I'm excited! Thanks again.
 
Give it a try! You definitely will not look silly, and you'll likely really enjoy it. We go on it each time we go. No kids. Big smiles. Fun!

Thanks Trinka! I'm excited to try it! Just the description I read got me all excited for it.:goodvibes
 
You will probably want to try it.

I ended up riding it more than enough times with my niece. One evening we didn't even have to get off. I think we rode it 5 or 6 times in a row, enough to make me have to get off-I started not feeling good. Didn't think that Winnie the Pooh could do that-Tea cups yes.
 
It is fun, my 5 year old little one loved it and so did I. Nice and cool in there. You sit in a honey cart and go along the track. There is a dark stormy part that might scare small ones, but other than that, it is very fun! I love the bouncy tigger part. Oh yeah, I get motion sickness, this did not make me feel sick at all.!:worship:
 
I love the ride, it's very cute. I would ride it for sure with or without DD!!
 
I rode that and Peter Pan when it was just DH & I. However, we didn't wait for any rides all week during off season, except Peter Pan & Pooh. We went in late afternoon (didn't know any better). We Fastpassed Pooh & then waited over an hour for Peter Pan. Make sure to Fastpass it or go early.
 
It's one of my favorite rides and I would go on it even if DS wasn't with me. I don't think you would look silly. :goodvibes
 
Simply put, just about everything at WDW is meant for kids of ALL AGES. There's a small slide near Splash Mtn that is only for kids under 40", and it may be there are a very other select things: like the tiny tunnel onthe Winnie the Pooh playgound that are only meant for small kids, but not the rides.

My advise: Let WDW bring out the kid in you, not the reverse.
 
My DF and I ride every ride at Fantasyland in DLRP and will do the same at WDW, I've never felt uncomfortable doing so and CMs have never seemed surprised we have no kids and are going on the rides. (Well maybe once during a freezing EMH when no one else in the park had been on Dumbo that day and just the two of us went on - but even then they were nice!)

Thank you! I love the Tea cups but DF gets a little queesy on them! :laughing:

Good to know about the lack of motion sickness! Thanks:thumbsup2

Me, too! Go and have a great time. That's what the magic is all about!

Thank you! Disney definitely always brings out the kid in me. :dance3:

I think maybe this trip i might have to go on Dumbo too. It's been too long! :laughing:
 
The only ride I ever worried about being out of place was Goofy's Barnstormer. At 6'2" and 275 I thought I might be too big. The cm insisted I was the perfect size for the ride. He was right. If you're going to feel foolish at WDW, you need to wake that inner child and let her have a little fun.

Thanks DonaldTDuck! :thumbsup2 That really made me smile. I think we all deserve to wake up the inner child and have fun once in a while! :goodvibes
 
When I ride Winnie the Pooh in the morning, it seems that pretty much the only people in line are adults :) (though of course I do see kids in the line that early too).
 
Its part of our every sat morning Magic Kingdom morning and both my 9 and 5 year olds wouldnt miss it..............
 
Definitely do it..it's a great ride, I've done it with my best friend when we were single and then again with my DH. My only word of advice..DEFINITELY DO FASTPASS FOR WINNIE THE POOH. For some reason, I find this is the worst ride as far as Fastpass goes if you decide to do the standby line. The line doesn't look that long and the sign may only say 20 minutes for standby, but you end up standing far longer because it seems they take like 30 fastpass people to every 10 standby people. The line does not move at all.
