Winnie the Pooh & Friends in the Magic Kingdom
The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh is a very sweet and gentle ride in the Fantasyland area of the Magic Kingdom. It features scenes from the classic Winnie the Pooh adventures. There is a Winnie the Pooh themed gift shop at the end of this ride. You’ll see Pooh, Owl, Kanga, Baby Roo, Tigger, Eeyore, and Rabit. This ride is popular and is included in GeniePlus.
Trivia: This was the Mr. Toad’s Wild Ride until September 1998. You have to look for it but there is spot on the ride where there is a picture of Mr. Toad handing the deed over to Owl.
Winnie the Pooh themed souvenirs can be purchased in the Hundred Acre Goods (formerly called “Pooh’s Thotful Shop”) near “The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh” attraction.
