Abby VandukerJune 29, 2018Save Everest for after sunset!! It’s still my favorite ride through the day, but is even better in the evening. Single rider is the way to go to dodge the wait, but the queue is neat as well.Upvoted 1 week ago
Aishah TolentinoAugust 7, 2016Always a long wait, but what can I say, it's a great ride! They definitely have to do something about the sweat smell when you enter the building.It could be all the clothes and artifacts being stored

Matt LDecember 20, 2017The line is beautifully designed, very atmospheric, and the ride is super fun. And the sight of Everest is magnificent during the day and especially at night

Corryn SmithDecember 21, 2014An absolute must do at Animal Kingdom. Stand in line and get a fast pass do you can ride it twice. The wait time is short once the park opens and when the park is about to close.
KellyNovember 23, 2015In my opinion, the BEST roller coaster at WDW! It goes forwards and backwards, is inside and out. For quicker entry, go through the single-riders line, never longer than a 10 minute wait.Upvoted 6 days ago
Fantastic line and interesting back story. Get a fast pass or go on the single rider line if you're in a hurry, but the line is fascinating and worth the trip through at least once.Upvoted 3 weeks ago
Laur Lo SkiApril 14, 2017Similar to the Matterhorn ride at Disneyland... the twist with this Coaster is that it starts going backwards and totally takes you by surprise SPOILER! Very fun ride, definitely Fastpass it.Upvoted 3 weeks ago
Slightly PerfectMarch 2, 2018Fave ride in the park (before Avatar was made, of course). The yeti is so cool, and the roller coaster going backwards in my favorite part. Breathtaking views at the pinnacle.
Sean LebAugust 24, 2014A mystery that begs you to find out more each time you ride. A fun coaster that goes forward and backwards in the dark, the detail and story of this ride is a prime example of Disney quality.
ClaireDecember 26, 2017A little hard to find but a fantastic ride overall! Normally has a long line, but there are things to observe while in the line. Definitely recommend using a FastPass to get to the coaster.
Chris RApril 9, 2015Get there first thing in the morning, use a Fastpass, or go through the single rider line for shortest waits. Very detailed queue.
Gilbert CorralesJanuary 22, 2014get on the single rider line then when u make it to the front ask to be moved to the line for the 1st 2 carts, is an amazing experience, and works even if u go in pairs
Drew McLellanJanuary 20, 2013To save a ton of time - use the single rider line. Your party is together until the very last minute, when you get out on the ride. Yes, it's fun to ride together but the time difference is huge!
DisneyisLoveOctober 27, 2012Ride Expedition Everest first thing in the morning to avoid a long line. Great ride! I highly recommend grabbing a fast-pass to Kilimanjaro Safaris and/or a fast-pass to Expedition Everest first.
Diane ShafferFebruary 10, 2023Do yourself a solid and take the standby line, if it’s under an hour. The queue is worth it and the time will go quickly. Indophiles will love it!
valerieApril 30, 2018Drop is not as big as it looks from the outside. I'm a wuss and I survived! Fun but quick, and the single rider line goes fast, but you WILL be separated.
Lorren Raque'lApril 19, 2019Go early in the morning or in the evening ! It’s ones of the best rides in the park. The lines can be very long!
T-town TomDecember 26, 2021One of my favorite coasters anywhere, ever. And I live an hour from Cedar Point and go there at least once a year. This absolutely stands up to or beats many of theirs.
jiresellFebruary 19, 2017Definitely fastpass this ride as it will have the longest line in the Animal Kingdom Park. Really fun, with some nice surprises during the ride.
TammyOctober 27, 2015Grab a $10 margarita, drink it up, get tipsy... hop on this ride and you'll end up getting a little more than tipsy! It's great!
Noel ClarkeSeptember 22, 2019Great roller coaster and one of the first i went on that had moving raise and went backwards. 100% make sure you get on this ride at Animal Kingdom
Mike SeilbackAugust 21, 2014great roller coaster - maybe the best one in Disney. fast, fun and great views of the park
Morgan LaufNovember 18, 2012Ride once in the front row for the view, and then in the back row where the ride itself is much better! Also, pay attention to the queue...there are a lot of cool artifacts throughout it!
AlAnoud A AlGhunaimSeptember 5, 2017The best ride in here, hands down! But make sure to get a fast pass.
Steffanie CamiloApril 3, 2017You must ride this! The building is great it makes you feel like you are in the Himalayas but warmer!
Roberto CamachoMarch 24, 2015The set up is very interesting and the ride itself is scary and fun at the same time , I don't recommend closing your eyes unless u want the biggest headache of your life.
Russ PerkinsMay 12, 2015Favorite ride in all of Disney! Get to the park early as wait times go up fast.
Stephen HatcherFebruary 9, 2013Get a fast pass and then wait for the front seats. You won't have to wait for long and it's definitely worth it for the view at a certain point!
Julia SpillersJune 3, 2013If you're alone or with a small group of friends, just use the single rider line. It only takes about five to ten minutes and you can still have a decent seat.
Bob AdamsFebruary 15, 2016A must ride in Animal Kingdom. I would go straight back there when the park opens. You can usually ride several times without a Fast Pass before the line builds up.
Brian BeatonJuly 8, 2013The front of train can give you a nice view but the back gives you a better ride. Also go right at park closing and you can ride several times in a row with no wait.
Getting to this ride early is the way to go so that you don't burn a fastpass. You can see Everest from the Dolphin
Hands down, most favorite ride at WDW. Try the single rider line, our personal record is 33x in a row! Seriously, backwards, Yeti's...YES!
Lisa SosaOctober 7, 2017Get a fast pass. Fun ride, even better when you don't have to wait long. My fave part is going backwards.
All the single Riders..All the single Riders...put your hand up and get in the single rider line and cut your wait time by a lot.
Brian IbarraOctober 12, 2019The ride is intense and fast! If you’re but squeamish make sure you hold on tight and close@your eyes.
Brian BezansonMarch 10, 2019Awesome ride. The best yet at Disney. We didn't FastPass and the line moved quickly.
manuelApril 26, 2013Get a fast pass before you even get in line for the first time. Trust me, you'll want to go again!
Caroline RobiantoDecember 27, 2012BEST RIDE EVARRR IN ANIMAL KINGDOM! Make sure you get a fast pass. Get the front or back row for more exhilarating experience.
Manish HittalmaniApril 29, 2016Great roller coaster in Walt DisneyWorld - Animal Kingdom. Reserve a fast pass as soon as you get your ticket to reduce your wait time
LFDecember 13, 2015Disney ride at its best. Very thrilling. Specially at night fall, when it becomes even darker. Don't miss it.
David JulesSeptember 28, 2018Single rider line! Also, look to the left as you go up the big incline, you can see Epcot and Hollywood Studios off in the distance.
Dani LaiterAugust 20, 2014If you're riding for the first time, ask for the front row! If not, last row is the best by far
M Aldoss ♏August 24, 2014Amazing coaster with nice drops. Watch out from Big foot creature, he is real and he will add his touch to this Coaster.
Jose RodriguezMarch 22, 2018Now this is a ride you can't miss! A thrilling rollercoaster that goes fast, backwards and through a yeti's home!
Hugo HFebruary 25, 2014**PAY ATTENTION** Look for the YETI close to the end of the ride. There's a HUGE YETI in the caves. AMAZING. I've been on this ride 10X & I just realized that he's there. He is MASSIVE.

"Great ride and you'll get wet but it's not too much. Also because of special seat with a lap bar a lil one (3yrold) can get on too. Lots of fun for the whole family."
