- MMMatthewJul 18, 20261.0I went and they were closed all week for maintenance so I didn't get to get on
- SKSandhya KoppisettiJul 16, 20265.0It’s a good experience to be here. They have Orlando eye, madam tussauds and sea life Orlando at a single place. Orlando eye is under maintenance right now.
- TTTrisha TraynorJul 12, 20263.0This will not really be a fair vote because they were closed the 2 times i tried to ride it sovill hafta do this again once i actually ride the eye...it look cool though. Also if you have a legoland annual pass its free to ride.
