Best MK Ride During Wishes?

[DisneyFan684]

In your general opinion, what is the best ride in MK to be on during Wishes fireworks? Looking for a different way to experience wishes this time around!

Splash is great and so is the TTA, both are awesome.

It was fun walking thru the queue and riding BTMR during Wishes!

My vote is Splash. The drop facing the castle with the fireworks is amazing! Close second BTMRR.

BTMRR by far is the best, longer than splash with multiple views. My favorite Disney moment was cresting the last big hill at the very moment the finale from wishes exploded into the air! Best day ever.

SDMT must be fun. Haven't gotten to do that one yet.

Big Thunder! It was a regular thing during all my years going to WDW. I haven't been there for a few. So sad.

Big Thunder during the perimeter Halloween fireworks was pretty cool I always liked the Electrical Parade from Splash

 

[MarkTwain]

Big Thunder by far. All the explosions add to the mine train theme.

Yea that would be fun,

for the whole 20 seconds of coaster time.

Thanks everyone! It sounds like Big Thunder and Splash have won the vote. If I happen to be in the tomorrowland area though, do either TTA or Astro Orbiter provide a decent view of the fireworks? Is one better than the other? Thanks!

Yes! Another vote for Splash and TTA. Also, back in the 90's we used to watch it from the Skyway!

Astro Orbiter provides a great view since it is so high, but you might get dizzy trying to force yourself to focus on the fireworks while you're spinning.

In MK proper? Not sure. HOWEVER, riding the monorail and seeing Wishes? AWESOME.

Am I crazy here or am I the only one that thinks the People Mover is fun for the fireworks?

We loved going on Dumbo during Wishes. Not only was the view perfect, but since it was empty in that area they let us ride again without getting up.

Had the *exact* same thing happen once. No contest, the best view of Wishes from anywhere in the park. (Timing that is tricky, though.)

Not really a favorite, but my wife and I enjoy watching Wishes while riding the Magic Carpets

TTA people mover is amazing for camera shots and such if it's timed JUST right.

Correct me if I am wrong, but wouldn't the overhead roof on TTA during the outside portions prevent people from looking up at the fireworks above the castle?
