Visiting Orlando With Kids

Everything You Need to Know About Visiting Legoland Florida

Sharing is caring!

Florida isn’t all just Mickey Mouse, Disney Princesses and Harry Potter; it’s also home to the largest Legoland in the world. Legoland Florida sits on 150 acres and is an incredible day out for Lego lovers and kids!

In this article, I’m going to debunk everything there is to know about Legoland Florida, from the rides and hotels nearby to insider tips and discount tickets. 

So, if you’re heading to Florida and are thinking about making the trip down to Winter Haven and immersing yourself in Lego, keep on reading!

Everything You Need to Know About Visiting Legoland Florida

Legoland sits on the old Cypress Gardens site, with the stunning botanical gardens still in situ. It is a purpose built theme park designed for kids aged 12 and under, with rides ranging from gentle to adventurous.

There are no upside down or super speedy rollercoasters like in other theme parks – it is however, a great theme park for those with younger family members.

Dotted around are lots of other activities too, like a rock climbing and tunnel wall, splash pads and numerous photo ops with giant Lego characters. Many of the popular rides have puzzles and boredom buster activities whilst you wait – making the time pass by quicker on busier days.

Attached to the park is Legoland Florida Water Park (an additional ticket is needed, more information below) which is a great way to end the day or cool off in the middle of a hot day. Next door, just a few steps away is the brand new Peppa Pig Theme Park.

When visiting Legoland Florida, it’s best to head online to their official website and input the dates you plan on visiting as the Legoland Florida park hours change weekly. Opening time remains the same at 10 am, but the park’s closing time varies from 5 pm – 7 pm. 

Normal park hours are 10 am – 5 pm, but as I mentioned before, this varies.

Legoland Florida Tips

If it’s your first time visiting Legoland Florida, then here are some insider tips for Legoland Florida to help make your days at the park even more enjoyable!

  • Download the Legoland app – The app shows you everything from ride wait times and height restrictions to a map that’ll help you navigate the park. There is so much to see
  • Avoid wait times by heading to the farthest rides – Many people will start off with the rides closest as at the time that makes the most sense. However, if you head all the way to the back of the park and work your way backwards, you’ll hopefully beat the queues and manage to ride on all the rides you want that day. 
  • Look out for things to do besides the rides, like rock climbing!
  • Bring your own food and drink – It’s no secret that amusement park food and drink is overpriced, but thankfully Legoland lets you bring your own! I recommended packing a cooler with snacks, sandwiches, drinks, and anything else you could possibly need and heading over to Cypress Gardens to sit in the shade and enjoy a quiet and budget-friendly lunch. 
  • Bring a spare pair of clothes – As there is a splash area in Legoland, it’s best to pack an extra pair of clothes or a swimsuit as trust me, your little ones will want to be a part of all the fun!
  • Bring a Lego figure to trade! with the Legoland staff aka Model citizens!
  • Be prepared for LOTS of the Lego sets at the Big Shop – they have an amazing selection! Arrange for parcels to be sent to the entrance to pick up on your way out.
  • You can hire stroller if needed – single or double.

How to Get to Legoland Florida from Disney, Universal, and International Drive

Legoland, Florida, is roughly a 45-minute drive away from Disney, Universal, and International Drive. As many people begin their holidays in these areas, I thought I should highlight how to get to Winter Haven and Legoland, Florida. 

From Orlando to Legoland, Florida:

  • Take I-4 WEST to exit 55 (US Hwy 27 South)
  • Turn right off U.S. Highway 27 at State Road 540/Cypress Gardens Boulevard. 
  • The Legoland Park is four miles on the left.

Parking at Legoland Florida

If you’re taking your own car to Legoland, Florida, I highly recommend purchasing a parking voucher before arriving at the park as you can save more money. Ride-shares can be around $45 one way from Orlando to Legoland.

Guests have the choice of Regular or Preferred Parking, with the Preferred Parking being closer to the Legoland gates. Online there is roughly a $17 difference between the two with cars at $25 and Preferred parking $40, but you can find out more about parking prices and purchasing a voucher here .

The parking for Legoland opens 30 minutes prior to the park’s scheduled opening time, so it’s best to get there early for one of the better spots.

Rides and Attractions in Legoland Florida

Legoland Florida is broken down into 14 fun-coloured themed areas, and each area has its own set of rides, shows, and attractions.

These areas are: Duplo Valley, Beginning, Heartlake City, Fun Town, The Lego Movie World, Miniland USA, Lego Ninjago World, Lego Kingdoms, Land of Adventure, Lego City, Imagination Zone, Cypress Gardens, Lego Technic and Legoland Water Park.

I thought it was important to break the best rides at Legoland Florida, including their height requirements, so you’ll know exactly what your little ones can go on. 

Duplo Valley

Prepaid schoolhouse.

Duplo Valley was made for the tiny ones of the family, and in the Prepaid Schoolhouse, you’ll find a variety of soft play equipment, a touchscreen area so they can practice numbers and letters, and a stage for entertainment. 

Inside the schoolhouse is also a baby care centre with changing rooms, nursing stations, and a microwave. An incredible addition is the “quiet room” where guests on the autism spectrum can take a break from the overstimulation of the park with noise-cancelling headphones, weighted blankets, and Lego building tables.

Splash and Play

Make sure you pack their swimsuits, as once they get a look at the splash and play area, they won’t want to leave. The soft squishy deck and larger than life farm animals are accompanied by water spouts and interactive water elements that are the ideal cool-down area when the sun is at its hottest. 

Specifically designed for guests under the age of two, this Tot Spot has small slides, a colourful playhouse and a secured play area so even the babies can enjoy their day out at Legoland.

Your kids can ride around the cornfields and help the farmers plough their crops all while searching for missing farm animals in the Duplo tractors. 

Height Requirements:  

  • Handheld infants are not permitted
  • Guests 42” and above can ride unaccompanied
  • Guests under 42” need a responsible chaperone over the age of 14

The train is the final instalment to Duplo Valley, and guests can jump in their own carriage to explore the Lego countryside themed scenery, passing through fishing holes, campgrounds, and farms. 

  • Guests 34” and above can ride unaccompanied
  • Guests under 34” need a responsible chaperone over the age of 14

Build-Your-Art Gallery by Lego Dots

At the Build-Your-Art Gallery, kids of all ages can create beautiful bold coloured Lego Dots tiles that, once completed, will be displayed on the Lego Dots gallery wall.

Heartlake City

Heartlake stepping tones fountain.

Kids can create their own music at the Heartlake Stepping Tones Fountain which has interactive stepping stone icons surrounding the heart-shaped water feature. Each icon is a different musical instrument so they can work together with their friends to compose a masterpiece.

  • Minimum height requirement of 48”
  • Guests must be able to transfer to the vehicle by themselves

Imagination Zone

The Imagination Zone is an area where kids can build their own Lego models with the thousands upon thousands of Lego bricks available. The space is kitted out with floor-to-ceiling graphics, colourful furnishings, and my personal favourite, air-conditioning. 

Kid Power Towers

Kids can put their muscles to the test at the Kid Power Towers. Guests have to work in pairs to hoist themselves up the tower to witness the beautiful view of Lake Eloise. Once they make it to the top, they’ll then “free-fall” down to the bottom (don’t worry, it isn’t a fast drop!)

Height Requirements:

  • Minimum height requirement of 38”
  • Guests must be able to transfer to the vehicle themselves
  • Guests below 48” need a responsible chaperone over the age of 14

  • Minimum height requirement of 36”
  • Guests must be able to transfer to the ride by themselves

Coastersaurus

A great starter coaster for the thrill-seekers of the family is the wooden Coastersaurus that curves and dips through a prehistoric jungle. The ride soars past animated life-sized Lego brick dinosaurs, and it’s definitely a must-do when visiting Legoland. 

  • Minimum height requirement of 42”

Lost Kingdom Adventure

The Lost Kingdom Adventure is an indoor ride where guests hop on a desert-off roader and take aim using laser guns at Lego mummies and skeletons to find hidden treasure. You can even turn it into a competition to see who can score the most points.

  • Minimum height requirement of 30”
  • Guests between 30” to 48” need a responsible chaperone over the age of 14

Pharaoh’s Revenge

An excellent space to blow off some steam and cool down is the Pharaoh’s Revenge indoor climbing area, where kids can crawl through tunnels, slide down slides, and swing around on ropes.

Safari Trek at Legoland Safari

Safari Trek

During the Safari Trek, kids can drive around the safari in a zebra-patterned truck looking out for their favourite animals that of course are built out of Lego!

Ford Driving School

Children can pass their driving test at the Lego City Ford Driving School.

Lego Kingdoms

The Dragon is an indoor/outdoor dragon-themed coaster that zooms through the enchanted Legoland Florida Resort castle and out into the sky. Similarly to the Flying School in Lego City, The Dragon doesn’t have any big drops, so it is suitable for young thrill-seeking children who are over 40” tall. 

  • Minimum height requirement of 40”
  • Guests between 40” and 48” need a chaperone over the age of 14
  • Guests must be able to transfer to the ride themselves

The Forestman’s Hideout

The Forestman’s Hideout is an outdoor play area made from wood where kids can run, climb, slide, and just be kids.

Kids can become ninjas on the Lego Ninjago ride. While riding, they can blast fireballs and lightning at sinister villains and a powerful foe. Feel the heat and wind as you blast the button. Not everyone has what it takes to be a ninja, so get the kids to add up their scores to see who is the chosen one. 

  • Children under 6 years old or under 48” need a chaperone over the age of 14

Lego Technic

Miniland USA at Legoland Florida

Miniland USA

Mainland USA is Legoland’s most iconic area where guests can stroll around, taking in all the incredible Lego sculptures from the Kennedy Space Center to New York City, Washington D.C. and Las Vegas.  Interact with a car race by turning a wheel and seeing if your racer comes first or just look at all the detail of these iconic cities and buildings.

Shows at Legoland Florida

The fun doesn’t stop at just rides. Legoland Florida also has 4D shows and a stunt show for guests to enjoy when visiting the park. 

Legoland pirate show

Brickbeard’s Waterport Show

Kids love stunt shows, and they won’t be disappointed with the Brickbeard’s Watersport Show in the Pirate’s Cove. Guests can watch as pirates perform tricks on wakeboards, skis, flyboards, and so much more!

The show comes equipped with high speeds, music, and gravity-defying stunts, making it a great resting and entertainment spot that the whole family will enjoy. There is a clearly marked splash zone in which the characters delights in making sure you get drenched!

4D Theatre Shows

If the sun has reached its highest, I highly recommend heading into one of the 4D theatre shows in Legoland’s largest 4D theatre.

They currently play four shows at different points of the day: Lego City 4D, The Lego Movie 4D, Lego NINJAGO, and Lego Mythica. 

legoland florida safari trek

Meet and Greets

Look out for various meet and greet characters at select spots around the theme park!

Legoland Water Park

Did you know that Legoland Florida also has a water park? It makes an excellent addition to your visit to Legoland or as a separate activity completely on its own! 

The water park is jam-packed with water slides, a wave pool, and a lazy river equipped with floating supersized Lego bricks.

Wave pool at Legoland Water park

This is part of a combo ticket as an add on. You cannot just purchase a water park ticket. Again, like the main park, this is targeting children ager 12 and under with gentle rides for tots to tweens.

Legoland florida resort.

Legoland has its own resort just steps away from the park that consists of three themed hotels: The Legoland Beach Retreat Villas, The Legoland Pirate Island Hotel , and The Legoland Florida Resort. 

All are extremely kid friendly with different price points and amenities. Which we go into further details below.

Other Accommodation Options Close to Legoland Include:

Courtyard by marriott winter haven, hampton inn winter haven, holiday inn express lake wales north – winter haven, luxury accommodation.

The Legoland Florida Resort is quite literally steps away from the Legoland and Peppa Pig Theme Parks. 

As the resort is so big, they have split it into three themed accommodations: the Legoland Florida Hotel , the Legoland Beach Retreat , and the Pirate Island Hotel . I’ve categorised them separately as they all have different features, accommodation types, and themes. 

All guests at the Legoland Florida Resort, regardless of which themed area you’re staying in, receive a complimentary buffet family style breakfast, self-parking, and wifi. An additional bonus is all hotels provide access to board games and puzzles, and of course plenty of Lego!

LEGOLAND Beach Retreat is located a short distance of approximately 1/2 of a mile to the Theme Park so a free shuttle bus is available to and from the Theme Park entrance during peak times.  As Legoland and the Peppa Pig Theme Park are situated next to each other, guests can also use this shuttle service to head over and visit Peppa and all her friends too.

Legoland Beach Retreat Villas

The Legoland Beach Retreat is made up of beach-themed bungalows in a village-style setting. Each bungalow can sleep up to five guests with one twin bed, one king bed, and a set of bunk beds. 

On the Beach Retreat property, guests can kick back and relax in the zero-entry outdoor heated pool, participate in the poolside children’s activities, or play around in the outdoor play areas.

If you’re after a bite while staying at the Beach Retreat, you can visit the Bricks Beach Bar or Sandy’s Castle Restaurant, which both serve up American classics in a buffet or a la carte style. 

The lake view Beach Retreat bungalows come equipped with a refrigerator, a coffee machine, 2 small bottles of water, a TV, and air conditioning.

On-site, you’ll also have access to the Skyline Lounge, which overlooks a Lego skyline and over 20 Lego-themed scenes. Included in your Legoland Hotel stay, you’ll also receive access to a children’s Master Model Builder session where kids can put their Lego building skills to the test.

Mid-Range Accommodation

The Courtyard by Marriott Winter Haven hotel has rooms that can sleep up to four guests. Although the rooms are fairly standard, they come with everything you’d need for a one or two-night stay while visiting the Peppa Pig Theme Park. 

Each room has air conditioning, a TV, a microwave, a refrigerator, and a coffee station. The private bathrooms come with a bathtub which is very handy when travelling with little kids. 

The Courtyard has a gym, an onsite restaurant, and a rooftop swimming pool that is the perfect cool-down spot after a long day at the theme park.

The Hampton Inn Winter Haven is surrounded by freshwater lakes and is only 3.2 miles away from Legoland and the Peppa Pig Theme Park. Rooms at the Hampton Inn can sleep up to four guests, and all come with a free continental breakfast each and every morning.

Campgrounds Near Legoland Florida

If you’re heading to Winter Haven in an RV there are a few recommended campgrounds relatively close to Legoland: 

  • Cypress Campground and RV Park
  • Hammondell Campsites
  • Cypress Gardens Mobile Home and RV Park

Legoland Florida Discount Tickets

Legoland one day tickets start from $84.99 IF you purchase far enough in advance. Otherwise the same ticket is from $127+ direct from Legoland. As with many tourist attractions, purchasing your Legoland tickets online is cheaper than if you were to purchase them at the parks at the gate. There are also many ticket companies that offer discount tickets; one notable mention is the GoOrlando GoCity Card.

The GoOrlando card comes in an All-Inclusive or an Explorer Pass giving you 2, 3 or 5 days of discounted tickets to some of Orlando’s top attractions. Legoland Park Florida is included in the ticket and if you enjoy combining activities, you can end up saving a ton of money. 

The three-day pass, for example, is $199. But, during these three days, you can jam-pack as many of the included attractions into your day and only pay the initial $199. It’s a pretty good deal if you’re busy bodies on holiday! For more information you can head over to the GoCity Website and see what other local attractions it includes.

Alternatively, you can even save money on the Legoland Florida Website. General admission at the gate is $109.99, and online, you’ll save $15, only having to pay $94.99 for guests over the age of 2. 

Is Legoland Florida Worth It?

Compared to other theme parks this is good value although still an expensive day out. If you purchase a GoCity Card, or something similar, then yes, you can bring the price down. There is no doubt that Lego fans will enjoy the immersive areas, building Lego models, and riding the Lego-inspired rides. Rides have less queues and you can easily get around most rides on an off peak day.

Although Legoland Florida has a few bigger rides, there aren’t many that older children and adults will find enjoyable. It is specifically catered for 12 and under and it does that brilliantly. Other theme parks, such as Disney World and Universal Studios, are more catered for the entire family, so the decision of whether Legoland Florida is worth it ultimately comes down to you and your family preferences. 

Can you do Legoland in a day? 

Yes, absolutely, if you choose a week day not in the holidays – although you might prefer a two day ticket or combo ticket to also include the waterpark and Peppa Pig Theme Park if you have preschoolers.

Top Rides for Kids at LEGOLAND Florida (plus best options for toddlers and babies!)

Save this post for later

Going on vacation with kids is both exciting and… well… not totally like a vacation. There’s things to plan, itineraries to check on, and some research that needs to happen to make the vacation as smooth as can be! 

At LEGOLAND Florida, most all of the rides are geared towards the 2-12 age range (but I do think adults can enjoy several of the options). However, there are ‘better’ rides for kids and some that I think you can skip. 

If you are going for the weekend, between the shows, the rides, the other parks… you should be able to get everything in! But if this is a one day trip, make sure to save the lists below to hit the best rides and save the other ones for a different time. (and if it’s a one day trip, be *sure* to view the crowd calendar before hand)

a LEGOLAND vacation does take some research so check out the LEGOLAND Florida Planning Guide.

Best Legoland Florida Kid Friendly Rides

Most popular ride at LEGOLAND is… 

Based on wait times, the most popular ride at LEGOLAND Florida for younger children is The Boating School, and for older children is CoasterSaurus. 

It’s possible to do all of the rides in one day with a skip the line option from LEGOLAND. If you are looking for a more cost effective approach, learn more about a Budget Friendly LEGOLAND Orlando Experience.

You can use the LEGOLAND app to select your favorite rides you want to do, or you can make an old fashion list. There’s a lot of fun tips for making this vacation extra special, and you can read about it in the top hacks for a LEGOLAND vacation

Are the rides worth it for the kids?

Some people online have compared these rides to fair/popup amusement types carnival rides. That is the furthest thing from the truth.

For one, I’ve never been scared that the rides were going to fall apart on me while riding. For two, they are much larger and more themed than carnival rides.

I would say that the new sesame street area in seaworld IS very carnival like. Legoland simply isn’t the case!

Just wanted to clarify as I know some people are curious if LEGOLAND is even worth it … but it’s definitely a theme park with some pretty decent options. If you’d like to see what else there is to do besides rides, check out the Can’t Miss LEGOLAND list.

Best rides for Babies and Toddlers 

Headed to LEGOLAND with the littlest ones is still very fun! My youngest has enjoyed LEGOLAND so much, especially as the DUPLO valley is designed for the younger ones. For rides, enjoy the Duplo Train and Duplo Tractor (plus check out the indoor play area and baby changing stations inside the schoolhouse!) 

This area does get alittle crowded, so be sure to look over the LEGOLAND crowd calendar.

Things to consider when planning rides:

Not all of the rides are open all of the time. For example, the Grand Carousel often opens first (depending on hours) as they sometimes have the back section of the park open an hour later. 

legoland florida safari trek

Weather is also a factor when choosing the rides, as outdoor rides don’t operate when it rains or there is a threat of lightning. In those instances, you would want to head to the inside shows (but prepare for longer lines!).

Most people head to shows, shopping or indoor rides in the rain. I prefer to head to the resort to get some food and let the kids play on the inside play areas there (you can visit without being a guest too!)

Legoland Florida: Ride List, History, Facts and More Information

Destinations, family travel.

Legoland Florida is a theme park for kids twelve and younger. Most rides are tailored to younger kids. However, you would be so surprised about some of the rides.

The best age is around 9 years old, which my oldest was at the time of our visit. My 3 year old also had a blast, but wasn’t able to do all the rides. Which was fine by him. My favorite part of all was the art. Lego’s art isn’t something I have ever paid any real attention to, but it’s so unavoidable when visiting the park. And, truthfully, I don’t know why they don’t get the same recognition as some of today’s top artists. Characters are always a welcome joy, no matter the age.

There are several different areas of the park, if you want, you can map out the ones you want to visit the most and hit them first. This way, your kids aren’t too tired by the time they get there. And if they are too tired, they can miss the ones that weren’t top priorities for them.

History of Lego Bricks

This is the fun part. How did it all start?

The Lego Group began in the carpentry workshop of  Ole Kirk Christiansen , in Billund, Denmark.

In 1916, Christiansen purchased a woodworking shop in Billund but it burned down in 1924, so he constructed a larger one.

In 1932, Ole Kirk’s shop started making wooden toys.

The business wasn’t great but in the mid-1930s, the yo-yo toy fad gave him a brief period of increased activity.

In 1934, Ole Kirk held a contest amongst his staff to name the company. He was considering two names: “Legio” (with the implication of a “Legion of toys”) and “Lego”, a self-made contraction from the Danish phrase leg godt, meaning “play well.” He later discovered that “Lego” can be loosely interpreted as “I put together” or “I assemble” in Latin, so they adopted it.

After World War II, plastics became available in Denmark. This allowed Lego to purchase a plastic injection molding machine in 1947.

The traditional date for the first Lego blocks is 1947. It consisted of a truck that could be taken apart and re-assembled.

In 1949, the Lego Group began producing bricks, manufactured from cellulose acetate in the spirit of traditional wooden blocks that could be stacked upon one another but could be “locked” together. They had several round “studs” on top, and a hollow rectangular bottom. They would stick together, but not so tightly that they could not be pulled apart.

In 1953, the bricks were given a new name: Lego Mursten, or “Lego Bricks.”

The product wasn’t well received by customers. They weren’t versatile and people preferred metal or wooden toys.

Ole Kirk Christiansen died in 1958. A man named Godfred took the lead of the company.

Another warehouse fire struck the Lego Group in 1960, consuming most of the company’s inventory of wooden toys. By that time, sales had improved and there was no need to continue manufacturing wooden toys, so they stopped.

In 1961, Lego wished to expand sales to North America so they allowed Samsonite to begin producing and selling Lego products in the United States and Canada.

Between 1961 and 62 the first lego wheels started being sold.

The famous Lego train system, was first released in 1966.

On June 1968, the first Legoland Park opened.

In 1969, the Duplo system went on sale. These are much larger LEGO bricks, targeted to younger kids, that are still compatible with the regular ones.

In 1971 LEGO tried to reach girls by manufacturing dollhouses and furniture pieces.

The expansion continued on 1972 when ships that actually floated were released into the market.

The famous expert builder sets for older people started being released in 1977.

“Lego Family” sets became their best sellers during the late 70’s.

In 1985 the Lego Group’s educational division produced the Technic Computer Control, which was an educational system whereby Technic robots, trucks, and other motorized models could be controlled with a computer.

In August 1988, 38 children from 17 different countries took part in the first Lego World Cup building contest.

Two Guinness records were set in 1992 using Lego products: A castle made from 400,000 Lego bricks, and measuring 4.45 meters by 5.22 meters, was built on Swedish television, and a Lego railway line 545 meters in length, with three locomotives, was constructed.

During the 90’s they also started selling sets inspired by popular movies.

Fun Facts About Lego

It is one of the oldest plastic toys in the world.

Teachers started LEGOs during the 60’s and haven’t stopped.

In 2000 the British Association of Toy Retailers named LEGO the “Toy of the Century”

In 2002, LEGO sued the Chinese makers of “Coko Bricks” because the resembled LEGO bricks. Coko had to apologize and stop making them.

An average of 80 pieces of LEGO have been produced for every human on the planet.

Not even Bridgestone or Goodyear produce as many rubber wheels as LEGO.

The tallest LEGO tower was 94 feet high.

LEGO also moved into video games. There are currently over 50 of them.

The largest commercial LEGO set is that of the Taj Mahal.

To celebrate the 80th anniversary of the inception of the brand LEGO, an animated short film titled ‘ The LEGO Story ‘ was made by Lani Pixels.

What is waiting for you at Legoland in Florida?

You can literally spend the whole day just enjoying the creations here in Legoland. From Pirates to cities, Miniland is truly my favorite thing to see while there . Pirates were a huge theme while we were visiting. And the waterskiing show about pirates was a huge hit for my kids. You can find here a roller coaster too. Don’t be fooled by this roller coaster – it will scare you to death .

I love it when my boys can enjoy some rides together. There are tons of interactive places to visit as well. To build anything from car races to Star Wars to much more. Driver’s school – yeah, my 3 year old was driving all on his own, and loving it. A lego safari, how fun is this.

You can easily do each park in one day. But don’t do both in one day.

We’ll start with the baby rides. There are several that are for younger kids only

However the concept was fun

Legoland, Florida - Jousting Ride

The Helicopter ride – great for kids of all ages

Driving Lessons – there are two sections for driving lessons – one for kids 3 – 6 and one for 6- 12. The line for my oldest boy was too long so we just enjoyed my baby. It was like driving a real car. There was no track, the kids had to maneuver and negotiate themselves.

W elcome to the magical world of Legoland Florida, where creativity, fun, and excitement come together to create an unforgettable experience for visitors of all ages. In this blog post, we'll take you on a virtual tour of Legoland Florida's incredible rides, ensuring you make the most of your visit to this fantastic theme park.

The Ultimate Guide to Legoland Florida: A Ride-by-Ride Adventure

 Legoland Florida Resort and  Legoland Theme Park are situated on approximately 150 acres of land. The theme park features a variety of attractions, rides, and shows inspired by the popular LEGO bricks and more.  If you and your family are considering a visit to Legoland Florida and wondering about the rides located in the Legoland theme park keep reading.  I will highlight all of the Legoland Florida rides in the 150-acre theme park as well as minimum height requirement and other key information to plan your visit.

I am going to organize the list of Legoland Florida Theme Park rides by minimum height to maximum height required in this blog post.  This guide will help you pack all the fun and be prepared before your visit to the heart of Central Florida.  When you are exhausted from a long day riding all of the rides at Legoland Theme Park head back to Pirate Island Hotel for even more fun that you can read about in this guide to staying at the Legoland resort steps away from the Legoland Theme park.  

List of Legoland Florida Rides Guide and Tips for Visiting- Legoland Florida Theme Park

Aquazone Wave Racers - Dodge water blasts and feel the breeze in your hair Minimum Rider Height Requirement is 40 inches.  If your child is under 52 inches in height must be accompanied by a rider 14 years or older.

Batte of Bricksburg - Spray duplo alien invaders from water cannons and stay cool during this fun interactive ride.  Riders will get SOAKED on this ride.  Minimum Height Requirement: Riders under 48 inches need a person 16 or older to ride with them on the battle of bricksburg.

Beetle Bounce - This is one of the best rides in the Legoland theme park for my family. Launch 15 feet in the air and bounce down in a family friendly ride that you'll want to go on over and over and over. Minimum height requirements: 36 inches.

Coast Guard Academy - Lego themed boats are ready for you to cruise through the water ride.  Another great way to cool down during a hot day. Minimum Height Requirement: 34 inches.  If the rider is 34-48 inches needs to be accompanied by a 14-year-old at minimum.

Coastersaurus - Ride through the jungle full of dinosaurs on this old school wooden roller coaster.  This ride is a great time for younger children.  While a tad bumpier of a roller coaster than the others since its wooden its still super fun!  Minimum rider height requirement is 42 inches.

DUPLO Tractor - Even if your children are not toddlers, stop by the DUPLO Tractor. My older children thought this was fun and cute and rode multiple times.   This cute tractor ride goes through a farm, fields, and around animals.  The interactive animal sounds are so cute.  Minimum height requirement of 42 inches to ride alone.  Children under 42 need a responsible rider to hop in the back with them.  Older siblings are perfect for helping younger children on this ride.

DUPLO Train - Another adorable ride in Duplo Valley, this DUPLO Train ride will be a huge hit with toddlers and children.  Its smooth and quick and perfect for little ones getting used to their first rides.  Ride through a farm and see animals and Lego figures fishing complete with lights and sounds.  Minimum Height Requirement: 34 inches.  Children under 34 inches need someone 48 or taller to ride with them.

Ford Driving School - Do you trust your child in a car? This is your chance to see how terrifying they will be on the road!  Lego lovers will zoom around the Lego City set up.  Once you navigate stop lights and free driving with friends, you will get your Legoland Driver's License!  This driving school Legoland ride is perfect for ages 6-13.  Too young to ride this one? No need to worry, Jr. Driving School is located right next to this one and geared towards younger drivers! No minimum height requirement, just age based.

Jr. Driving School - This smaller version of the Lego city is perfect for aspiring drivers ages 3-5.  Kids will love driving around the street complete with stop lights and more all on their own!!  Complete the driving safely and be rewarded with a driver's license! No minimum height requirement, just age based.

Kid Power Towers - This interactive ride was so much fun to work together to pull yourself to the top of the tower.  Be sure to get your muscles ready because the view from the top is AWESOME!  Then let go and free fall down to the bottom to do it again on one of my favorite interactive rides.  Minimum Rider Height 

Lego Ninjago The Ride - This was a family favorite ride together nestled in Lego Ninjago world.  Grab your laser gun and get focused to shoot fireballs at villians as you navigate through this 3D ride.  Its smooth and fun and interactive for any family member.  There are NO height requirements but children under 48 inches need someone who is 48 inches tall and over 14 to ride with them.

12. Lost Kingdom Adventure - This ride is similar to the Lego Ninjago ride feel but welcomes riders as small as 30 inches.  Riders use laser guns to shoot at mummies and skeletons and track your points for a friendly challenge on this Legoland Florida ride.

13. Merlin's Challenge - My kids LOVED this fun fast paced circular ride and rode it over and over and over.  This wooden ride is powered by wizards magic and small riders will love the speed!  Minimum height requirement is 36 inches. Children under 48 inches will need a 14 year old rider or older to join them.

14. Mia's Riding Adventure - Thrill riders and speed lovers need to hop in line for this Legoland ride in the Legoland Friends section.  Mia and her friends are ready for a riding adventure where you hop onto a horse and spin your way through this ride.  It was THRILLING and so much fun to ride this as an adult too.  Minimum rider height is 48 inches.

15. Pirate's River Quest - Set sail on this pirate river quest in Legoland Florida's newest ride in 2023!  This pirate fun ride takes you through murky waters to find lost treasure.  

16. Royal Joust - This ride is a kit hit because they can do it solo and its a smooth trip around a jousting path!  Riders must be 4 and 36 inches tall.  Riders cannot be over 12 or 170 pounds to ride.

17. Safari Trek - Hands down the cutest sweetest Legoland ride for children.  Spot Lego made animals with movement and sounds as you cruise through this Lego jungle.  Minimum height requirement is 34 inches and if you are under 48 inches grab a responsible rider 14 or above to join!

18. Technicycle - Get your leg muscles ready to pedal your way higher and faster into the air on this fun ride.  Minimum height requirement is 36 inches. Anyone under 48 needs a responsible helper 14 or older to ride with.

19. The Dragon - My kids will tell you this is hands down their favorite roller coaster at Legoland.  This smooth yet fast paced roller coaster is a delight.  Minimum height requirement 40 inches.  If rider is between 40 and 48 inches needs a adult or someone over 14 year of age to ride with. 

20. The Grand Carousel - Located right inside the theme park entrance this is my favorite ride to kick off your Legoland theme park day.  Riders of all ages will love this sweet two two story carousel.  No rider minimum height requirement. but if your child is under 48 inches be sure to have someone there with them!

21. The Great LEGO Race -  This is my husbands favorite ride! If you like height, this one is for you!  Minimum height requirement: 42 inches.  Riders 42-47 inches need someone 14 or above to join them.  48 inches and above can ride alone.

22. The LEGO Movie Masters Of Flight - This indoor ride in the Lego Movie World area is a fun way to cool down on a hot day at Legoland Theme Park.  This full dome immersive virtual screen ride is like nothing else youll ride.   Minimum rider height of 40 inches.  Riders 40 inches - 52 inches need someone 52 inches or above to accompany them on this ride at Legoland theme park.

23. Unikitty's Disco Drop - This is one of my favorite rides at Legoland.  Bright colors and fun disco music lift you high to see Lego Movie world from above!  Its smooth and easy to ride and a must do.

Fast Track Pass at Legoland Florida? Is It Worth It?

The Fast Track pass is worth it if you are visiting during high traffic visit times to Legoland theme park such as summer or spring break when the lines get pretty long.  If you are visiting during an off season time like we have during both visits (HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS) then you do not need them! We did not wait in line for ANY RIDE during any trip to Legoland when we went during the week during non peak visits in the winter.

Fast Track costs 69.99 per person per day.  It does NOT work at Peppa Pig Theme Park or Legoland Water Park.  The Fast Pass only works on 3 rides.

Legoland Florida f eatures more than 50 rides, attractions, and shows. These include a mix of family-friendly rides, roller coasters, water attractions, and interactive experiences, all themed around the iconic LEGO bricks.  Please keep in mind that rides undergo maintenance and renovation, and this number may vary at times. 

Keep in mind that the Legoland Water Park and Peppa Pig Theme Park have their own rides too!  If you are looking for information about tickets, cost, rides and attractions in those portions of the Legoland experience in Florida, you can find my in-depth reviews on those as well.  

RollerCoasters Not Your Thing?  What Can I do for Family Members that do NOT enjoy rides?

Legoland Florida offers a variety of activities and attractions beyond the rides, ensuring a well-rounded experience for visitors. Here are some of the things you can enjoy at Legoland Florida outside of the rides:

Safari Trek, LEGOLAND California

LEGOLAND California announced this week that the opening day attraction, Safari Trek will be closing permanently at the end of September. Safari Trek opened at LEGOLAND California in March 1999. 

This is likely to be disappointing news for numerous fans of LEGOLAND California but at least there is still a week left to get one last ride.

The Safari Trek at LEGOLAND Florida remains open and there currently doesn't appear to be any plans for its closure. The Safari Trek sees kids pilot their family members aboard animal-striped jeeps, through a safari past LEGO jungle animals like elephants, giraffes and hippos.

Safari Trek, LEGOLAND California

Here is a POV of Safari Trek at LEGOLAND California for those of you who can't get to the park to have one last ride.

LEGOLAND has said that the reason for the permanent closure of the Safari Trek at LEGOLAND California is in order to make way for a new future attraction project. So far, LEGOLAND has not expanded on what this new attraction will be but we will update you when further details are announced.
