| I like the look of this ride, only thing is I don't like heights , will I be ok? I also don't like going on cable cars , is this anything like, is there movement as in side to sideforward and backwards? Or do you just feel like there is as in the old cinedomes at Alton towers? |

| Definitely give it a go... it's a great ride... and I say that as someone who also hates heights.
I found I quickly got over my fear, and went back later in the day for a second go 
And if all else fails, you can always just close your eyes and block out the information to your brain that makes you think you are higher than you really are ! |

| This is one of my favourite rides . My niece who was 6 years old when she went on it loved it too and she's normally scared of rides that go high in the air. I remember queueing in Paris for Dumbo only for her to back out at the last minute when she realised it went up in the air

| | I know this is one of the newer attractions at WDW, but have to say, we loved it!! I do not go on most of the thrill rides, so this is nice and tame with a real sense of "WOW!!". My husband hasn't been on it yet, but wish he would go, it is truely a wonderfully clever attraction, one for ALL the family (that meet the height restriction!) | | Report this post to a moderator | goto top of page |

| | We were lucky enough to "walk on" this ride, when we last went on Soarin as it was a Special Previews only, but I assume it is a little busier now? Much waiting time John? | | Report this post to a moderator | goto top of page |

| | Trust me, I do not 'do' many rides [screamed all the way down on Splash Mountain and thought I would die] but I adore soarin - it is made for 'wusses' and you can definitely ride it. I love the smells and feeling of wind through your hair -there are no drops or scary bits, apart from when the film takes you over a hill, and it looks a long way down -I shut my eyes for that, as I would on TV also! |

| it is an amazing ride Vicki and it would be a shame to miss out, i don't do heights or motion simulators and i'm like Susan, a wuss when it comes to splash mountain
i did get persuaded onto tower of terror once, but never again!!!!
this Soarin ride has you sat down in rows and then you get raised up in front of the screen, like Susan says you feel the wind in your hair and the smells of the different landscapes you hang glide through and it has a spectacular finish which i'll keep to myself so as not to spoil it for you, it's not scary though so give it a go, you won't regret it
it's a fast pass and they go pretty quick so get to the park early (2hr queues for this when we where out in march)
