The Experience – Undoubtedly a Disney masterpiece, this 11-minute boat ride defines Fantasyland better than any other attraction. Fight the urge to mock the chipper theme song and get caught up in the world of dancing dolls, quacking ducks and twirling windmills--the ride's quirky innocence is hard to resist. Boats float leisurely through different lands, each with its own unique personality that reflects different cultures around the world. Soak in the song, the lights, the birthday cake colors: it's an enchanting experience. – – Facts – The line is rarely long,…

Annoying, but A Classic
by RlaurenC
Yes, this is probably the most annoying ride of all time. But it's a classic! If you can get past the song it actually quite beautiful. Sometimes I must admit the dolls are kind of creepy, but hey, we all like a good scare now and then right? All in all, if your going to Disneyland you have to ride this piece of Disney history.
- Pros: A classic Disney ride, Neat outside
- Cons: The song!, Too long.

Can't get the song out of my head!
by izelmorena
Small World is potentially one of the most annoying rides in Disneyland. If you've never been, then you should at least go once. Just beware of the haunting lyrics. You'll catch yourself humming it at least once after you've gotten off. Interesting bit of trivia that may put a happy spin to the lyrics; originally, it was planned that the dolls would sing the national anthem of the nation they represented. Considering that the song can be heard from room to room, it became a nasty mess of lyrics and sounds. So, Disney went to the songwriters and got us what we have now. Not sure if it's better or worse.
- Pros: Bit of History, Nice UNICEF message
- Cons: The song
