Well you dont actually see the ground , you see a projection that really makes you believe you are flying

That’s what the Wizarding World cost and it only had ONE new ride! Hard Rock Park cost about $225M and had minimal theming. So rides may be “themed” to certain properties, but the theme will pretty much be in the names of the rides only.

Wow — what an interesting question.  =)

You really don’t see the ground at all while riding Forbidden Journey, save for the filmed sequences where you zoom all over Hogwarts Castle and the Qudditch Pitch.  Now, this can be either really good or really bad; I’m not certain whether never seeing the ground would heighten or relax one’s fears.  (And I’m not certain whether or not the fast-moving film sequences would be an issue, either.)

I guess the best way to sum up the ride’s experience is this:  it truly does feel as if you’re flying all about the castle grounds.  I’d just ask the person in question how comfortable she may be with that.

Hope that helps at least a little.

About how high off the ground does the ride go? We are going in January, and are travelling with someone who has height issues. I checked out the guide to Forbidden Journey, but didn’t see anything about this.
