Best MK Ride At Night

[Raineman]

I'm sure that there are quite a few rides/attractions at MK that have a completely different atmosphere/experience after dark them they do during the day. What are some of your favorite night time rides/attractions at MK? The one that pops into my mind right away is the TTA - getting great views of the lights of Tomorrowland, plus the great view of the illuminated castle you get right before the Progress City model.

Thunder Mountain.

Thunder Mountain for sure!! The Astro Orbiter is pretty cool as well.

I haven't ridden it at night, but I'd imagine the 7DMT would be cool at night as well.

Agreed. Totally different (and in my opinion, way better) experience.

i have, and it was solid but a little more enclosed than thunder

for views splash mountain gives you an awesome look out at the castle before the drop, at night it's impressive especially during the holidays if you see the 'ice castle' albeit this is brief

Jungle Cruise is really cool at night. Different experience for sure.

Yes that's a must do for us every trip! That and Wed Way both are different and special after dark

If you time it to happen during the fireworks then Thunder Mountain wins hands down... Otherwise with no fireworks, Jungle Cruise it is the only time it doesn't look bad.

TTA is pretty cool. You get a bird's eye view of TL plus it's relaxing after a long day.

The queue at Haunted Mansion feels a bit more spooky at night. I agree with others that Jungle Cruise and Thunder Mtn are both fun and different to experience at night. The skyway was fun to ride at night too...

yeah, that queue is spooky at night, especially if there is no one else waiting in line as you go through it!

It doesn't do anything for the ride, but getting off HM and coming out of the building at night is one of my favorite things!

Yes! Jungle Cruise is a great ride at night! Walking around the park at night in general is so much different than during the day. I don't know what it is, but I feel like the park is emptier at night...and I'm not talking about late at night after people start to leave.

My favorite ever night time experience was Astro Orbiter during the fireworks. A CM stopped while we were discussing where to watch fireworks from while in tomorrowland. He suggested that if we got in line at that moment we would catch them perfectly. He was spot on. It was brilliant.

Haunted Mansion, Thunder Mountain...and honestly Space Mountain just seems better at night.

Count me as another vote for Jungle Cruise.. It's one of my favorites any time.. but it is so much better at night.

TTA is pretty cool. You get a bird's eye view of TL plus it's relaxing after a long day.

I also love TTA at night.. we usually take the shortcut through the Tomorrowland Terrace, and always hear 'this time it's laughter they're after' as the TTA cars go by above us..

Splash Mountain

 

[fireworksandfairytales]

I love both Thunder Mountain & Splash Mountain at night!

No particular order: TTA, Astro Orbiter, Splash Mountain and Big Thunder Mountain.
