But on your next trip to Disney, there's one ride you should make sure to seek out: Expedition Everest.
Since Pandora (aka Avatar Land) opened in May 2017, more people have been heading to Animal Kingdom to try new rides like Flight of Passage. (Understandable. It's great!) But you should really make your way over to Asia on the opposite side of the park to encounter a giant yeti on Expedition Everest.
It's easily Disney's biggest thrill coaster.
I don't go to Disney for its coasters. Yes, it has a few good ones like Space Mountain and there's California's Matterhorn. But overall, Disney's a family theme park. So the first time I went on Expedition Everest last fall - my family never saw a point in heading to Animal Kingdom before Pandora opened - I thought I was going on a normal coaster. I had no idea there was a twist to the ride.
The ride sends you exploring through the Himalayas where you'll presumably come across the big, bad Yeti. At the start, there aren't any huge drops. You go around a soft curve and make two large climbs into the sky. But then, about a little more than a minute into the ride, the train comes to a halt and you notice the rest of the track has been upended. Our yet-to-be-seen Yeti friend has ripped it up.
Expedition Everest is Disney World's most underrated roller coaster — but it's the one you absolutely need to rideExpedition Everest on a clear day in Disney World's Animal Kingdom.Kirsten Acuna/INSIDER
The best coaster at Walt Disney World in Orlando, Florida is Expedition Everest.
It's in the Animal Kingdom theme park. You know, where Pandora: The World of Avatar is located.
The coaster, which opened in 2006, isn't just for kids.
New riders may be surprised to find the attraction starts going backwards mid-ride.
If you're someone who hates getting their head jerked around on coasters, it's surprisingly smooth.
The best time to go on is at night when you can go backwards in a pitch dark tunnel for about 30 seconds.
If you don't get a FastPass, waits are around 70 minutes during the day. I recommend heading at the very start or end of the day.
When you head to Disney World, people may ask you if you've been on Space Mountain or if you checked out the new Slinky Dog Dash coaster.
But on your next trip to Disney, there's one ride you should make sure to seek out: Expedition Everest.

Here's why you should seek it out.
It has an unexpected surprise that's slightly terrifying and thrilling.

Sorry, I didn't risk my phone to take photos on this ride. But tell me that wouldn't make you nervous for a split secondIn October, I remembered looking sideways at my cousin thinking, "Uh, what's going on?" And then the moment it hit me, we started racing backwards. Even better? We were moving through complete darkness. Because you can't see where you're going, you are at the coaster's mercy. You don't know if you're going to head left or right, go up a bunny hill, or take a dip, and it's completely exhilarating.
The ultimate surprise is that you're not even traveling backwards on the same track. It's another one the ride switches to without the rider's knowledge. After you ride in the dark backwards for between 20 to 30 seconds (I counted) you go forward once more, racing through the mountains until you come face-to-face with the yeti himself. The giant animatronic worked when the ride first opened in 2006 for two years before it broke down and probably made this part of the ride even cooler.
