Tier 3

The Magic You Might Miss

Tier 3: Ten Under-appreciated Attractions at Walt Disney World is a deep dive into those attractions that no one talks about. The history of each attraction is discussed in detail, from concept to opening to evolution. Each attraction is given a detailed walkthrough, with even the most minor changes over the years pointed out and assessed. The possible future of each attraction is discussed: might it go extinct?

These may be the attractions that you ride while you are waiting for your FastPass time come around. These may be the attractions you ride 'just because you're in the area.' They're not destination attractions. No one is marking "only 20 days until I get to ride Gran Fiesta Tour" on their Disney countdown calendars. While Space Mountain, Rise of the Resistance, and Flight of Passage are the flashy attractions that dominate Disney's billboards and marketing spiels, it is the under-appreciated attractions that are the heart of the parks. They're the surprise you weren't expecting.

In Tier 3, you will learn which attraction Walt Disney paid to finish himself, what the director of the Muppet Vision 3D show took as payment, which award-winning director has an uncredited cameo in It's Tough to Be A Bug, and so much more!

Join the tour of under-appreciated attractions. We can ride them over and over and over. The line's never too long.
