    A ride that makes you feel like you're a ball rolling on the tracks of inside out. More of a tots ride to twirl to their hearts content. Not so great if you get dizzy or have motion sickness. The tight spin is located towards the far corner of the midway. Near the silly swings and boardwalk pizza. You'll pass under the coaster tracks and hear the screams of people riding.

    I always get dizzy on this ride but its still fun. You sit in an emotional hot air balloon and float in a circle like a merry go round. Tonight was short probably because it was a Oogie Boogie night, but tbh it's not really a long wait on regular evenings either.

    So cute! This is an adorable ride for kids. And maybe some adults can enjoy it as well. Not a whole lot to this ride though. You sit in the bucket like seats and it takes you around in circles- but it's nice and slow. You go up and down too- but it isn't aggressive. It's a nice, easy, ride to go on. Definitely more for the kids. The ride is based on the Disney movie Inside Out. The movie is about emotions and is a great educational movie for kids. The ride has some of the characters on it with the emotion that they represent. There's also a spot for a photo opportunity too!

    Emotional world win is right !

    This ride feels exactly like the name. It seems nice and then all of a sudden gets chaotic and you're spinning and it's over. It's literally my brain when When I hang out with some of my friends. Short and sweet ride, yet a little rowdy.

    Anything longer than a 10-15 minute wait would make this ride not worth it to be quite honest since it was pretty short and it's just a Dumbo without the controls to be honest. I have never seen Inside Out so I can't really comment on the theming aspect of the ride, but it was neat to see some of the characters as the ride spun around and that each little "hot air balloon" was themed after a different emotion or aspect of human nature. Different characters from the movie narrate the safety instructions and different lines during the ride. I would recommend going on it at night since the lights all around make it super pretty, BUT know that it gets pretty dang cold, especially since you're near water.

    For kiddos, I can see this being a great attraction but for adults it is definitely a one and done for me. The wait time can be 15+ minutes and the ride is so short that it isn't worth it in my opinion. Additionally, compared to other rides and attractions I feel like the theming is lacking in comparison. I hope with the new film coming that it gets a refurbishment to improve theming.

    Inside Out Emotional Whirlwind is a Inside Out themed ride that has 8 Memory Movers. It's located in Disney's California Adventure within Pixar Pier next to Silly Symphony Swings. My family and I stopped by this ride on a Friday morning around 8:30 A.M. There was no wait time at this ride. It was really short ride. The memory mover that you sit in goes up and down, in a circular motion. It may make you feel dizzy or motion sick afterwards. I think it may have been re-themed as there was a similar ride in the A Bug's Land before it was changed to Avengers in Disney's California Adventure. I wouldn't recommend riding this ride if the wait time is more than 15 minutes during the day, however, it's beautiful at night as you'll be able to see the lights of Pixar Pier.

    Inside Out Emotional Whirlwind is a pretty nice ride. It's nice for kids to enjoy. It is a nice and slow ride. Will be getting on the ride again. You can hear some of the characters on the ride.

    Joy!

    What an emotional whirlwind! I will go through emotional whirlwind if I do not get to experience this attraction! This ride is pure chill. It's colors, it's excitement... do you enjoy the movie? You will enjoy the attraction! I think the colors on this ride are so attractive and bright. It's a great addition next to Bing Bong's. The theming is excellent. Fully immersive with the movie posters as you're in the queue. This ride is fully outside. Relaxing and delightful! I am only giving it 4 stars instead of 5 because I think it should be a touch longer. I love the characters especially the "famous unicorn!". This attraction is too cute. I recommend it for the whole family!!!

    Located in DCA don't let this ride fool you it looks simple but once on it it goes pretty fast and up and down slightly but I actually felt dizzy and woozy afterwards not your typical ride going around in a circle.

    Family-friendly ride. Not much of a view though.

    Emotional Whirlwind is literally Flick's Flyers repurposed into a half-baked "Inside Out" themed ride. Disney totally moved the ride from the now-defunct Bug's Land and gave it a new coat of paint. Look, I'm glad they added another ride to the once-boring Paradise Pier area, but this is a lame attraction. You pile into one of 8 baskets and then it spins around sort of like Dumbo, except that you don't get to pilot your own basket. It does seem to go a little faster (and feels higher than the old Flick's Flyers because it's on an elevated platform), but there's hardly any view to speak of and the soundtrack is stupid (with characters from the movie saying things that don't really add anything to the ride). This is a family-friendly attraction, but the ride is too short and too blah to really recommend it.

    Date of visit: August 25, 2019 One of the best rides in A Bug's Land was Flik's Flyers... so when the area was shuttered last year to begin construction on Avengers Campus, the ride was repurposed to become the Inside Out Emotional Whirlwind. A little paint job here, a relocation to the old Maliboomer location (and new attraction backdrop) there, and we're good to go! That said, if you've ridden Flik's Flyers, the Emotional Whirlwind is pretty much the same ride; you choose your gondola, and up you go for about a 90-second spin. While there's no shade overhead like in the previous ride, the colorful backdrop and fun music are still nice to experience. Plus, it may be just us, but since the upgrade, it feels faster than Flik's Flyers. Don't forget to get pics of the Disgust and Fear figures on the outside!

    The wait isn't very long and you just sit in a hot air balloon shaped seat and it goes in circles.

    Had a great time at Knott's Berry Farm with my family! We went on a pretty hot day, so we were…read moredefinitely prepared for the heat, but overall we had a really enjoyable experience. One thing that surprised me was that the wait times for the rides weren't as bad as I expected, especially considering how busy the park can get. We were able to get on quite a few rides without spending the entire day standing in line, which made the visit much more enjoyable. There's a good mix of rides and attractions for both kids and adults, so everyone in the family was able to find something they enjoyed. We also loved walking around the park and taking in the atmosphere. Even with the heat, there were plenty of places to take a break and cool down. Overall, it was a fun family day and a great way to spend time together. The heat was probably the biggest challenge, but it didn't take away from the experience. We had a lot of fun and would definitely come back again!

    If I could give no stars I would. We (AIE Tours at Knotts…read moreand I) have been in contact several times in the last 6 months, as I had tried to schedule bringing my senior citizens to Independence Hall for a visit. Initially I was told that they needed to pay a $55 park entry to have guided tours. That seemed silly for 85+ year olds since they would not be entering the park, so I was then told that self-guided tours were available. This is where it gets wonky. And where I'm honestly super angry. I scheduled for two of our communities to bring 23 people to Independence Hall for a self-guided tour yesterday (Thursday, September 10th). I contacted the tour department by phone on Wednesday, stating that I was bringing said seniors to an unguided tour the following day and asked if there was a better place for us to unload. We had a long conversation about where we could unload the residents that was closer to Independence Hall (BTW there is nothing for them). Imagine my frustration when we get to the parking lot and the attendant tell us that Independence Hall is closed for renovations (which apparently is not true). Are you freaking kidding me? We drove 45 minutes and my sister community drove even longer from RPV to come to see Independence Hall. Do you not think it would have been wise for the representative to let us know that it was closed? I researched it while I was having lunch with the residents at the at the restaurant. (Imagine driving 45 minutes just to eat lunch...) I could be wrong but NO WHERE on your site does it say that Independence Hall is closed. I finally googled it when I got back to work and found out from a 3rd party that this began September 2 and that going forward it is only open Saturdays and Sundays 'for budget reasons'. I have been an activity director at this high end community for 21 years. in that time, we have gone all over SoCAL from San Diego to Simi Valley and everywhere in between. I have NEVER has such a massive fail. You guys have screwed all of this up more than I can understand. We will not be back, and you just lost a long time fan of Knotts. Sidenote: Mrs. Knotts Chicken restaurant was delish and the staff was amazing. Still not worth 90 minutes round trip.

I took a solo trip and had an excellent day despite a few hiccups along the way. The first thing I did was book it over to the Guardians of the Galaxy: Mission BREAKOUT ride. I got incredibly lucky. The Lightning Lane reservations were basically booked until almost 9 PM, and the standby wait was around 90 minutes. The Cast Member working customer service noticed I was by myself and worked a little Disney Magic to get me on. I really appreciated that! Easily one of the best rides in the park. I loved the reimagining of the old Tower of Terror and had an absolute blast. I tried to make it up front to meet Oswald, but his meet and greet suddenly disappeared from the app. I really wanted to meet him, but it's all good. I'll have to catch him on my next visit to California. The exact same thing happened with Black Panther. My top two character meet and greets canceled on me! That's probably my biggest complaint of the day, but let's be real, it's definitely a #FirstWorldProblem. Radiator Springs Racers had about a 70-minute wait, and you have to purchase an Individual Lightning Lane if you want to skip the regular line. Thankfully, the Single Rider line was only about 20 minutes, so I threw my Galaxy Buds in and thugged it out. Worth it! Cars Land itself is also incredibly immersive and beautifully designed. Walking around actually made me want to go back and watch the Cars movies again. Next, I kicked it over to Pixar Pier and rode the Incredicoaster. Easily one of my favorite rides between both Disneyland parks. It is so much fun from the moment you're strapped in and launched off to the sound of Dash's voice. 10/10. Loved it! Definitely grab a Lightning Lane because that line gets long FAST. Afterward, I saw Baymax was doing a meet and greet and hopped in line literally right before he went on a 15-minute break. After waiting, Baymax came back out with Hiro! I've never met Hiro at Disney before and honestly didn't even know he did meet and greets, so that was a really nice surprise. Then I went to ride Toy Story Midway Mania, but it broke down for the day after I had already waited about 20 minutes in line. Y'all, my luck was fluctuating UP and down all day. Haha. I wrapped up the day with Goofy's Sky School and WEB SLINGERS: A Spider-Man Adventure. Sky School broke down too, but thankfully it came back up pretty quickly. I had a Lightning Lane and was already near the front. That being said, I probably would not ride it again. It was way too rickety for me, and my head kept knocking against the back of the seat. WEB SLINGERS was basically the same experience I had at Disneyland Paris, except this time it was in English, so I could actually understand the backstory of the ride! If you like Marvel and/or video games, it's definitely a must ride. Come to think of it, this ride broke down for a little while too. The Disney mechanics were OFF that day! Thankfully, these days everybody has earbuds and smartphones, so the extended waits didn't bother me too much. I ended the day with seeing Goofy and Mickey and some souvenir shopping for family and friends. Something about a Disney visit isn't complete to me without seeing Mickey Mouse! He was as energetic and effervescent as ever. He loved my Oswald the Rabbitt shirt. :) All in all, I had a great day and would absolutely come back again. There are still rides I didn't get to experience, and hopefully next time I can finally catch the Oswald and Black Panther meet and greets I missed. California Adventure has seriously stepped its game up since I first visited as a kid in 2001. Twenty-five years later, it feels like an entirely different park, and I had a great time exploring it all over again.

We were able to get a decent deal with a grand bear suite, water park passes, kid wolf pass, and breakfast Buffett. They put a bracelet on you and that's all you need to get in room, water park, pay for food, gifts, snacks, etc. Nice not having to carry stuff. Room was clean, bed bug free (I check thoroughly), and the AC works well. We had a toilet that wouldn't flush they sent someone immediately, he used the room ice bucket to pour tap water into the back of tank which was odd to us but whatever we didn't plan on using it (we had a mini cooler with us). The indoor water park is super fun, bring goggles and eye drops because the chlorine is strong. Really strong!!! Lazy creek is the only ride that wasn't the clearest. Especially by the end of the day. Outdoor pool is lovely. Really refreshing. We were there during the week and it wasn't crowded at all. They have fun little kid activities afternoons and evenings. Food was great in the restaurant, pizza place, Buffett, and ice cream place. Free cups of ice water everywhere I asked for one. Mini golf was geared towards young kids(7 and under), adults don't waste your money. The kids enjoyed jungle climbing thing, and the obstacle course in the sky! It's a cashless resort but staff will accept cash tips if your service is exceptional and you feel generous. I'm not sure but I think tips are included with package deal at least they were with ours. The Fireside restaurant was good, however if you have dietary restrictions I wouldn't trust them, the chef came out discussed restriction with us, and when food came out and after asking confirming 3 separate times yes it was gluten free only to have the waiter come back to the table and take it away because it was not gluten free. Lucky for us our friend had only a small bite and knew it wasn't gluten free. They brought out another they assured us was but by that point we didn't trust. The pizza place and breakfast buffet were fabulous and were able to accommodate restriction easily. Arcade super fun ask the workers about deals they were pretty generous and we won a couple of jackpots! Great ticket/prize set up not like chuckechese nightmare! Lazer tag kids had fun. Parking is ridiculously expensive $35 a day self park even if you are staying overnight. Still super good time was had by all, and no one got sick so that's great!
