Epcot: Counting Coasters and Figment's Frolicking Fun - You're Welcome!
Ah, Epcot - that shimmering beacon of innovation, international intrigue, and enough rides to make your FitBit go into overdrive (although, let's be honest, you're on vacation - who needs a FitBit?). But before you strategize your park conquering plan, a question naturally arises: just how many rides are there at Epcot?
The Great Epcot Ride Count: It's All About Perspective
Here's the thing, Epcot's a bit of a unique beast. Unlike Magic Kingdom's thrill-a-minute approach, Epcot offers a delightful mix of experiences. We're talking about soaring virtually through the world on Soarin' Around the World, then shrinking down to Remy's rat-sized perspective in Remy's Ratatouille Adventure. It's enough to make you question your own existence...in the best way possible, of course!

Tip: Slow down when you hit important details.
Epcot doesn't limit itself to just rides. There are live shows (like the hilarious Turtle Talk with Crush), captivating films (Impressions de France will have you wanting to book a one-way ticket to Paris), and even educational exhibits that somehow manage to be entertaining (Living with the Land is way cooler than your high school biology class, trust us).
So, the number of rides might be finite, but the Epcot fun? Infinite!
QuickTip: Slow down if the pace feels too fast.
