Touring Tips
• Expedition Everest is one of only a few attractions in Walt Disney World that does offer a single rider line (Test Track in Epcot and Rock ‘n’ Roller Coaster in Disney’s Hollywood Studios). You do not get to experience the queue but it may be a quick option to ride. Keep in mind you do not get a choice as to who you sit with.
