Totally Awesome Guide to Legoland Florida Rides

Legoland Florida is one of the best theme parks for little kids and big kids to visit.   There is so much to see and do at the park including thrill rides, chill rides, character meet and greets, and spectacular shows.  It is one of my kiddos favorite theme parks in Florida.

Let’s dive in and take a look at all of the totally awesome Legoland Florida rides!  The Legoland Florida theme park has ten sections each with its own unique Lego theme.

In this post, the rides are organized by thematic section.

Pro-Tip:  Be sure to stop by the infographic at the park entrance so you can see which rides your kid(s) can ride based on their height(s).

Fun Town

Fun Town is where you’ll find the first attractions.  A two-level carousel called Grand Carousel and the Wells Fargo Fun Town Theater which features 4D films.

Grand Carousel

Grand Carousel is a double decker slow moving carousel ride that your kids will absolutely love. The ride is outfitted with animal statues and benches.  The second floor tends to fill up pretty quickly.

Pro-Tip:  Save the carousel for last!  Head to the back of the park, instead, to take advantage of shorter lines.  Many visitors are tempted to hit up the carousel first thing since it is the first ride in the park.  

Ride Requirements:  Riders below 48″ must be accompanied by an adult or  a responsible person 14 years or older.

Heartlake City

Heartlake City opened in 2015 and centers around the Lego Friends series.  It has 1 ride- Mia’s Riding Adventure, a theater, and a heart-shaped fountain with Lego brick instruments.

Mia's Riding Adventure

If your little one is a thrill seeker, you won’t want to miss this one!  Saddle up and join Mia for a riding adventure!  On this spinning ride, you’ll travel forward and backward on a circular platform that sits on a U-shaped track.

Ride Requirements:  Riders must be 48″ or higher.

Duplo Valley

This area was designed with toddlers in mind.  It hosts two rides Duplo Train, and Duplo Tractor, an air-conditioned playground called Duplo Farm, an outdoor playground, and a toddler splash pad.

Duplo Train

A slow moving train coasts along gentle bends on this toddler friendly ride.

Ride Requirements:  Riders below 34″ must be accompanied by an adult.

Duplo Tractor

Cruise around the Duplo farm in this slow moving tractor ride.  The tractor moves along a track going around smooth turns.

This was one of the first Legoland Florida rides that our family enjoyed together.  The boys are obsessed with vehicles these days so it was perfect for them!

Ride Requirements:  Riders below 42″ must be accompanied by an adult or a responsible person 14 years or older.

Lego Kingdoms

Journey back into medieval times at Lego Kingdoms.  The Dragon is a remodeled roller coaster from the park’s Cypress Garden days.  Here, you’ll also find a toddler friendly ride called The Royal Joust, a small circular rollercoaster called Merlin’s Challenge, and a playground known as The Forestmen’s Hideout.

This was our family’s favorite of all the Legoland Florida rides!

The Dragon

This super awesome (and totally hilarious) indoor/outdoor roller coaster offers a look into the life within the enchanted Legoland castle.  

The Royal Joust

This ride is perfect for little ones.  Mount a Lego horse and travel across medieval Legoland.  

Merlin's Challenge

This was our family’s favorite Legoland Florida ride!  Climb aboard a Lego train and cruise around this fast, spinning circular rollercoaster.  

Land of Adventure

You’ll find a treasure chest of fun in this Ancient Egyptian themed section.  Don’t miss Beetle Bounce, Coastersaurus, Lost Kingdom Adventure, Safari Trek, and Pharaoh’s Revenge- a super fun playground.

Beetle Bounce

The line for the Legoland Florida ride moves super fast!  The Beetle Bounce takes riders on a bouncy flight on an obelisk.  Riders are lifted 15-feet into the air and dropped quickly down.  Our oldest (7) and our youngest (4) loved this ride!

Coastersaurus

Travel through a prehistoric jungle filled with life-sized lego dinosaurs on this classic Legoland Florida ride.  This junior coaster is perfect for kids that aren’t quite tall enough or old enough for the more intense thrill rides.  

Since the coaster is designed for young riders, grown-ups might find the carts a little cramped.

Lost Kingdom Adventure

This is another one of our favorite Legoland Florida rides!  Riders travel back to ancient Egypt in search for treasure on this dark, indoor ride.  As you’re coasting through Egypt, you’re equipped with a laser blaster for protection.  Shoot at targets to see how many points you can acquire!

Safari Trek

Board a slow moving off-road vehicle and travel through the African plains.  See if you can spot giraffes, elephants, lions, and more!

The Lego Movie World

This section is centered around The Lego Movie.  There are three main attractions here including Masters of Flight, a flying theater attraction, Unikitty’s Discodrop, and Battle of Bricksburg a super wet family-fun ride.

Masters of Flight Legoland Florida

Masters of Flight

Climb aboard Emmet’s Triple Decker Couch and magically get transported into the LEGO MOVIE Universe.  You’ll soar to Cloud Cuckoo Land, MIddle Zealand, Pirate’s Cove, and more in this flying theatre.  Be prepared to experience mist, wind and smells on this super fun Legoland Florida ride!

Unikitty's Discodrop

This ride is very similar to Beetle Bounce.  Riders are taken on a bouncy flight that spins around in circles as it bounces you up and down.  

Battle of Bricksburg

You’re almost guaranteed to get wet on this family-fun water ride!  Hope on our boat and coast around the town of Bricksburg defending it against evil Duplo alien invaders.

Lego City

A Lego Mustang at Legoland Florida

Cruise into the heart of Lego City for trunk loads of fun! Kids can act like grown-ups and drive almost every vehicle imaginable!   Here you’ll find Ford Driving School, Ford Jr. Driving School, Flying School, Boating School, and Rescue Academy.

Ford Driving School

Kids 6-13 climb into cars for this “real-life” driving experience.  After navigating around the other absolutely insane drivers, kids receive their official LEGOLAND driver’s license.

Ford Jr. Driving School

This scaled down version of the driving school is for kids 3-5.  They get to cruise around a smaller, less chaotic road course.  At the end of their driving test, they will receive their very own driver’s license.  

Flying School

This ride is perfect for thrill seekers!  Take flight and soar on this iconic Legoland Florida ride.  You’ll twist, turn, and glide through the air on a steel coaster.  

Boating School

This is the quintessential Legoland Florida ride!  Visitors get to captain their very own speedboat.  Using the gas pedal and steering wheel, you’ll be in total control of our boat. 

Kids love this ride!    There are Legoland employees guiding captains so they can safely navigate the water.  The rides duration depends on the rider’s control, but it usually lasts between 4 and 7 minutes.  

There are several boats, however, so the line moves rather quickly.

Rescue Academy

Ring the alarm!  There’s a fire!  It is up to your family to rush to the fire, put it out, and make your way back to the station.  This ride is very hands on. It requires quite a bit of energy, strength, and teamwork to make the firetruck move.  This was our family’s least favorite Legoland Florida ride.

Lego Technic

In this section you’ll find Technicycle, a pedal-powered spinning machine that propels you into the air, The Great Lego Race coaster, and AQUAZONE Wave Racers.

Technicycle

The faster you peddle, the higher your paraglider will travel on this wild and crazy peddle-powered spinning machine.

The Great Lego Race

Lego masters!  Start your engines!  The Great Lego Race puts riders in the center of an action-filled road race on this super thrilling rollercoaster.

AQUAZONE Wave Racers

It wouldn’t be a Legoland Florida ride without a bit of water!  Cruise over the water in your own water craft!  As soon as the racers start moving, you have the ability to control your Wave Racer.  Steering the wave racer can help you avoid blasts of water- otherwise, prepare to get wet!  

Pro-Tip:  There are two different platforms on the Aquazone Wave Ravers, so the line moves faster than you may think.

Imagination Zone

This zone features 2 spaces where kids can get creative!  At Build & Test kids can build race cars and zip lines, and Lego Mindstorms  is an exhibit where they can build robots. At WB Games Zone kids can play video games.  There is one ride, Kid Power Towers, where guests hoist themselves to the top and free-fall to the bottom.

Kid Power Towers

On this unique ride, passengers hoist themselves to the top of a Lego tower for sweeping views of Lake Eloise and the entire park.
