8 Rides They Should Build At The Roman Disneyland

The mayor of Rome has unveiled plans to build a massive theme park that would “put a Roman twist on rides like Disneyland’s Pirates of the Caribbean.” While many Italians are against the idea, I think it would be awesome. Who wants to visit actual Roman ruins and see some of the world’s most famous art, when you can do it from a fake gladiator chariot on a ride, while eating a funnel cake? Think of all the amazing rides they could build! Here are a few ideas:

Etruscan Center

Visit the famous, massive meatball globe, which houses the Mission: Spicy Meatball ride. Don’t walk to get there – take the MammaMiarail instead!

Captain EspressO

Follow a spaceman on his 3-D mission to deliver a gift of espresso to a wicked alien queen!

Haunted Vatican

Ever wondered what goes on underneath St. Peter’s late at night, with all those dead pope tombs? Now you can find out – without risking your soul – at the spooky
and fun Haunted Vatican!

Roman Rapids: Actually In Rome Version

Based on the popular ride at Busch Gardens Williamsburg, take a wet-n-wild ride down the rapids* of the REAL Tiber River! *No actual rapids.

Country Bear D&G

The famed Disney ride, Country Bear Jamboree, takes a decidedly upscale turn with Country Bear D&G!

Spizzico Mountain

If you’ve never been to Italy before, you have not had the great privilege of tasting Italy’s version of fast food: Spizzico! You’ll feel right at home, eating pizza that tastes like cardboard – but you’ll also scream your head off in this INSIDE roller coaster of terror!
