All the rides are great, it is really hard to choose just a few.
I like all the rides in Magic Kingdom, I try not to miss any of them.
EPCOT, I like Mission Space, Test Track, etc.
MGM Rock n roller coaster is fun.
Animal Kingdom, there are a ton of great rides, I think they are all worth riding, but Expedition Everest is my favorite.

Hey, I'm going in July, too! When will you be there? I'm going from the 15th to the 25th. I can't wait!
Here's a list of my favorite rides at each of the four Walt Disney World theme parks...
Disney's Animal Kingdom Park:
Primeval Whirl
DINOSAUR
Expedition Everest - Legend of the Forbidden Mountain
Kali River Rapids
Kilimanjaro Safaris
Disney - MGM Studios:
Twilight Zone Tower of Terror
Rock 'n' Roller Coaster
The Great Movie Ride
EPCOT:
Spaceship Earth
Ellen's Energy Adventure
Mission: SPACE
Test Track
Soarin'
El Rio del Tiempo
Maelstrom
Magic Kingdom:
Jungle Cruise
Pirates of the Caribbean
Splash Mountain
Big Thunder Mountain Railroad
The Haunted Mansion
Mad Tea Party
Buzz Lightyear's Space Ranger Spin
Space Mountain
But remember, each theme park also has a great selection of shows, parades, and fireworks displays. Don't miss out on anything! Do as much as you can in the amount of time you'll be there and don't pass up a ride because it seems to be for little kids. They're all a lot of fun!
Hope I could help!
* I'm having a hard time believing the person above has actually been on some of the attractions she listed because she gave incorrect information and stated that her source was "names pulled from Walt Disney World Guidemaps." She said "Test Track was fun, a big fast train ride!" Yes, it's very fun, but you're in a six-person car (without a roof) on a GM test track - it's absolutely nothing like a train ride. Then she said "Careful in "Soarin", I actually fell over when the plane banked to the right." First of all, you're riding in a "glider" (nothing like a real glider), not a plane. Second, the "glider" you sit in hardly moves. Third, you're suspended many feet above the ground, probably up to 30 ft., or so, and there's a lap belt - there's no way for someone to "fall over," and if she'd somehow fallen over, she likely would've fallen to her death considering it's dark and the floor below is concrete. She was kind of rude with her last comment, too, huh? "July is HOT so good luck to you in the lines." I've been in August when it's just as hot, if not hotter, and it's not that bad, really.

Most of the rides at Disney anyone can ride. There are a few however that are for the older kids to adult age only. I am taking the family this April, and here are a few we are looking forward to (my kids are 11 and 7):
Magic Kingdom - Space Mountain, Big Thunder Mtn. Railroad, Splash Mtn., Pirates of the Caribbean, Peter Pan's flight, Buzz Lightyear's Space Ranger Spin, It's a Small World (although I can skip it, that song is sooo annoying!), Haunted Mansion, Hall of Presidents.
Epcot - Test Track (a must see ride), Maelstrom in Norway, Innoventions (not a ride, but some cool stuff in here. I have seen them trying out new video games and virtual reality simulators in here.), Mission Space, Spaceship Earth (my kids love riding in the giant golf ball!)
MGM - Aerosmith Rock 'N' Roller coaster, Twilight Zone Tower of Terror, Indiana Jones Stunt spectacular, Star Tours.
Animal Kingdom - It's tough to be a bug, Tarzan rocks (two shows but worth seeing), Expedition Everest (new roller coaster), Kilimanjaro Safari, Dinosaur.
I hope this helps. Now, these are some of our favorites. Everyone's opinion varies, like Mission Space. I am not a big fan, but I added it because some people are. I would suggest two sources to look at when getting ready for Disney. Go to www.disneyworld.com. They have pictures and descriptions of all of their attractions, and you can log in for free and make a favorites list. Also, pick up the new Birnbaum's guide to WDW. There are dozens of guide books each claiming to be good, and they are in their own way, but we have found Birnbaum's to be the best.
Have a great trip!!!!

Well, at Magic Kingdom:
Space Mountains & Haunted Mansion both are a must.
Pirates of the Caribbean is kinda neat
I found the Hall of Presidents to be interesting but its a historical thing so you have to like that sort of thing to appreciate it.
At Epcot:
Yikes, so much to do and so little time!
You need a minimum of 2 days for this park alone. In the front are the rides...all are good. In the back are the 'countries'. You get to experience many countries of the world.
At nite, be sure to catch the laser show over the lake. So Cool!
At MGM:
I like the Tower of Terror. FUN!
Be sure to plan your days well... go over the handouts and pick the 'must sees' and do those or else you may never get to see them during that visit. Trust me, so much to do and so little time. If you want to eat at any of the sit down restaraunts, be sure to call ahead like a week to get reservations or you won't get in.

Just visited Disney World this past weekend and I used to work there...18 years ago.
KINGDOM: Pirates of the Caribbean just updated their ride to include Johnny Depp's likeness as "Jack Sparrow". Space and Big Thunder Mountains are always a thrill ride. The Haunted Mansion has been down-graded, was horrible! Splash Mountain will feel good after waiting in the long hot queues (lines).
EPCOT: Mission:Space was fun, but take the wimpy ride of the two offered. The harder ride is very hard to sit thru, some have vomitted due to the spinning around and round. Spaceship Earth (big golf ball) is always an interesting ride. Test Track was fun, a big fast train ride! Careful in "Soarin", I actually fell over when the plane banked to the right.
STUDIOS: If you got any pain in your back, DO NOT ride the Tower Terror Hotel ride, it can bang you up, but it is a thrill! Aerosmith's roller-coaster ride is not spectacular, but is fun. The movie ride inside the Chinese Theater is cool.
There are lots of sit-thru things that are cool. Get a GUIDEMAP when you enter each Park and that'll help lots! July is HOT so good luck to you in the lines.

Depends on which parks you are going to. I like the classics like Pirates of the Caribbean but there are so many other ones. And definitley do the Haunted Mansion...its the best. Also, make time to go to busch gardens in Tampa. Its the best park! And only an hour away.
