A four-time winner for Best Attraction in the Theme Park Insider Awards, Spidey takes you on an adventure with the web-slinger as he tries to save the city. You ride in a bucking, spinning SCOOP Vehicle -- while wearing 3-D glasses -- through 11 scenes, escaping fireballs, 100-story drops and other mayhem.

Incredible - gaetan leclercq

This is what theme parks is all about. Great fun leaving you wanting to go on it again without any risk or fear factor. Just a fun experience. You could ride this many times and notice more each time. Great attention to detail. Love it. - Paul Churchley

This is the standard for all theme park rides. More than 10 years old, however, it has aged very well. The effects can be a little aged and need maintenance, however the ride itself beats everything. The 3-d is great, and it is perfect if you want to experience the Spidy experience. You will be amazed. - Timothy Nguyen

Fantastic 4D motion simulator and most probably my favourite ride ever. You could go on this many times and never get bored. The part where you fall from a skyscraper is brilliant, the effects are fab and the ride is a little jerky, but not uncomfortable. Would highly recommend! - Emily G

Absolute perfection. - Tim Taylor

Ride it at least 2 to 3 times every visit -- simply incredible. - Joanna Hamilton

I have been on this one when there were synching problems with the A/V and I have been on when it stopped mid-cycle...but it is still my favorite non-coaster ride. There should be similar rides at every great major park! - Christian Baggett

Spider-Man is a surprisingly intense, head-whirling, fast paced explosion of a ride. The action flys around you a mile a minute and succeeds in making the rider feel they are part of the experience. It is in my opinion the BE-ALL END-ALL of Theme Park Attractions. 10/10 - Dan Huffman

The first time I rode this I was absolutley amazed with the amount of effort put into it. I love how although Spidey's 3D, when he jumps on real world objects they actually do something (for example, Spidey will jump on a real ladder at the beggining of the ride, and it will go down a bit because of Spidey's weight, same goes for the ride vehicle) The detail is stunning. - Roger Sage

Stunning. Go on it and then queue up and go on it again! - Mark Moore
