Formula Rossa
Let’s get real: most theme parks claim to have a “world-class” coaster, but Formula Rossa is the actual, no-asterisk, Guinness-certified fastest roller coaster on the planet. You’ll get launched from zero to 240 km/h (that’s 149 mph, for the non-metric crowd) in under five seconds. The G-force hits you like a punch from a heavyweight, and the wind is so intense they make you wear goggles. Forget Instagram—this is pure, adrenaline-soaked chaos, and it’s the only place on earth you can brag about riding a roller coaster that outpaces a Formula 1 car on the straightaway. If you only do one thing, do this. (Personal favorite. Nothing else at Ferrari World—or anywhere—comes close.)

If you only do one thing, do this. (Personal favorite. Nothing else at Ferrari World—or anywhere—comes close.)





Flying Aces
This isn’t your average loop-de-loop. Flying Aces boasts the world’s tallest non-inverting loop, and the ride is themed after a WWI biplane ace. The climb is a near-vertical 63 meters, and the drop is so steep you’ll feel your stomach try to escape through your shoes. The ride is smooth, but the airtime is wild—expect to be lifted out of your seat more than once. It’s a masterclass in coaster engineering, and the theming is just enough to feel immersive without being cheesy.





Turbo Track
Turbo Track is Ferrari World’s vertical spike coaster, and it’s all about that moment of weightlessness. You’re shot straight up through the iconic red roof, then plunged back down in reverse. The ride itself is short, but the sensation of being launched skyward, seeing the park from above, and then free-falling backwards is a jolt of pure, unfiltered fun. It’s a quick hit, but it’s unique—there aren’t many rides in the world that let you punch through the roof of a building.





Driving Experience
This is where Ferrari World earns its name. For a (substantial) extra fee, you can actually drive a real Ferrari around Yas Island’s roads, with a pro instructor riding shotgun. It’s not a racetrack, but it’s as close as most mortals will get to piloting a six-figure Italian supercar. If you’re a car nut, this is bucket-list material. If you’re not, it’s still a killer story to take home.





Bell’Italia
Most theme park “scenic rides” are snoozers, but Bell’Italia is a surprisingly charming miniature tour of Italy—by Ferrari, of course. You cruise past scale models of Venice, the Amalfi Coast, and the Colosseum, all from the comfort of a tiny 1950s Ferrari. It’s a breather from the high-octane rides, and the detail is impressive. If you’re traveling with kids or just need to catch your breath, this is the spot.





Speed of Magic
This is Ferrari World’s 4D dark ride, and it’s a wild, surreal trip through lava caves, icy mountains, and underwater worlds—all at Ferrari speed. The visuals are dated, but the motion simulator packs a punch. It’s a solid break from the heat and a good way to keep the adrenaline going if you’re not a roller coaster junkie.





Ferrari World in the UAE isn’t cheap, and yes, the crowds can be thick—especially on weekends and holidays. But if you’re chasing the kind of entertainment that leaves your heart pounding and your face sore from grinning, this place delivers the goods. Skip the Instagram filters; the real magic is in the speed, the engineering, and the sheer, unapologetic fun.
