Positive aspects of the product (pros): A true joy to ride this classic Cons: Water can smell funny
I love this ride, and I believe it might have started my love of Disney from my first trip to DLR as a young girl. If I sing along and just enjoy the ride, it can still bring a tear to my eye. And that song? I love it too!

Positive aspects of the product (pros): A true Disney original, great for all ages Cons: Lots of bad cliches but thats all
This is a pretty good attraction. It is not my favorite but I still hit it once in a while because of the history behind this attraction. Its a boat ride that moves slow and has a song that never stops. lol But still worth checking out. Wouldn't wait long in line for this attraction if your going to wait try not to wait more than 15 mins.

Positive aspects of the product (pros): Classic, cool down, nice long ride. Cons: None
I've been on this during Holiday season with massive lines, and the wait still went fast. The 20 minutes it takes is a great time to cool down. You never look at this ride the same way after reading Ridley Pearson's "Kingdom Keepers".

Positive aspects of the product (pros): Good to get out of the hot sun Cons:
This is a good ride for kids and those that need a break from the hot Florida sun. Once you've done it, that's it. I'm not wild about some of the new things they added, I think it takes away some of the classic style that Walt invisioned.

Positive aspects of the product (pros): Classic, always something new to see Cons:
I love this ride, I really do. Sure, the music will require a sledgehammer to get out of your head, but there's just SO much to see, you catch a new detail or two every time.

Positive aspects of the product (pros): not as bad as I thought it would be Cons:
I was dreading going on this, I really was. But, it wasn't that bad. It's been kept up nicely and the song wasn't blaring as loud as I thought it would be. The very end is kind of wierd where they mix all the world's children up into a single room playing together but everyone is wearing white. Why white? Kind of creepy, but I'm surely over-thinking it. Anyway, you have to do it at least once, might as well get it over with!

Positive aspects of the product (pros): Lots of colorul, creative Cons: Needs an update
We go on this every trip, usually as many times as we are in the MK (so like 3-4 times a trip). By the 2nd time through you can see where paint needs to be touched up, or where speaks are in the middle of animals. Maybe a face lift would help, but don't change the ride.

Positive aspects of the product (pros): Classic. Realxing. Comfortable indoor ride. Cons: Boats tend to bunch up at the end, the "It's a Small World" songs runs in a loop in your head the rest of the day.
Great classic Disney ride.

Positive aspects of the product (pros): Classic, Kid-Friendly, and Relaxing. Cons: Loud, Breaks Down, and Can Be Really Annoying If You Allow It To.
This ride is a classic and should always be kept here at the MK. It is a relaxing, positive ride to enjoy with young ones. The singing can become tremendously annoying you allow it to. It also broke down for 30 minutes, which took away time from the park.

This ride is rather lengthy. It is inside and the air conditioning feels wonderful on a hot day. Nice to see different cultures!

Positive aspects of the product (pros): Delightful and Relaxing Cons: Song gets stuck in your head
If you have kids, or you've just never been on this ride, it is a pleasant one to go on. It's a Disney classic and a rite-of-passage for the Disney fan. It is a one and done if you don't have kids though. The song does get stuck in your head for the rest of the day.

Positive aspects of the product (pros): Cons:
Rode with about a 15 minute wait around 12:15pm on 5/24/10. The song seemed less annoying to me than in the past, but perhaps that is because we paid more attention to the dolls and trying to figure out what countries they represented (I think that's Ireland." "Wait, maybe it's Scotland" "Oh yeah, that must be Ireland!"). A classic!

Positive aspects of the product (pros): Disney Classic. Lines move fast. Classic song Cons: Always to have too many boats on the ride since always end up bumping/stopping because of a boat jam near the end of the ride (this part hasn't changed in over 30 years).
We went March 2011 and the first thing I noticed was that the exit is now th enterance and visa versa. You now go over ride the and down to the boats instead of going down to the boats and exiting up and over the ride. An absolute Disney classic!!!! Always a great ride that makes you smile.

Positive aspects of the product (pros): very colorful, great fun Cons: could be boring for older kids
I always try to ride this "oldie but goodie" but really won't stand in long line for it. It's beautifully done, and it's a great reminder that we all live in a SMALL WORLD.

I know, you've gone on this ride every trip, and yes, the song is tedious. But hey! It wouldn't be Disney World without it!!

Positive aspects of the product (pros): easy and relaxing Cons: the song after a while
I will say I enjoy the boat ride now and then, and when I take Disney rookies with me, we go on this ride without question. It's a classic! The past couple times though, the boats were backing up at the queue and we had to listen to the song for an extra 10 minutes in the last room.

Positive aspects of the product (pros): Cons:
First of all. I have always injoyed this ride ever since I was young. But I think that Small World is one of the trademarks of Disney. So with the Fantasy Land expansion I think that they should take out the old Small World and make a bigger and better one, that is similar to the one in Disney Land.

this ride is really annoying. i was 3 the first time i ever went on it & of course i loved it. but when i was 13 i went on it and i couldnt stand it. it's really boring. again, you're on a boat thats going like 5 feet every 3 minutes and you ride around listening to freaky looking dolls singing the same song for the next half hour

What a beautiful classic! Despite the bad rap the song and the ride have, we love this one. Every time I ride I see something I've never seen before. Be sure to enjoy a loop or two around this classic.

I really enjoyed this ride. I especially like the indoor queue in contrast to DL as well as the boats not traveling through a trough. It seemed a bit short though.

Positive aspects of the product (pros): Classic Attraction Cons:
My daughters favorite attraction. The music gets old yes, but she loves it and there is always something new to see. My favorite character has to be the Cactus playing the guitar.
Its a great way to get out of the heat and the humidity. Usually not long of a wait either.

Positive aspects of the product (pros): kitschy but classic Cons:
DH gives this a 5, but DD gives it a 9! This is one of her favorites and she loves everything about it. The song that she can sing over and over and over and all of the dolls to look at.
Dh said he liked it better the second time after he learned the history of the ride some, but otherwise the song drives him batty!
It's a fun classic, but it is very old school. Not sure if I would wait in a long line for it, but with a short line it's worth a ride.
