Nearly 100 year old iconic American roller coaster that is as thrilling as any modern ride today. Definitely has that classic wooden coaster feel, so expect a bumpy ride. Lots of hang time at every drop. The carts look cool and old school, and are adequate comfort. This is an old ride! Enjoy the experience and time machine back to 1927.

  • Jenna Bull

You have to ride this if you go to Coney Island! It's $10 per ride if you don't buy a wrist band for the day. It's pretty rough so be prepared to brace yourself! They offer rude photos and merch at the end of the ride. Don't worry if you have bags, they have a free storage facility when you go on the ride.

  • SUPRITHA S BHAT

Not one of the best. Why? Because of safety. The ride and seats are all wooden and old. There were no proper seat belts. I was on top of my friend the whole time. Had a sprained neck and a blood clot trying to hang on. There is the adrenaline rush, but I wouldn't go again because of safety More

  • Anita Principe

I had never been to Coney island it was a great experience. My daughter rode the cyclone and she loved it! The crowd was awesome everyone was having a great time. Alot of places to sit and eat! I will definitely be going back. Get there early if you want to park close!

  • B Meh

The most famous roller coaster in the world, and it deserves all the love and acclaim it gets. Despite being an old wooden ride, it is incredibly smooth, with seats that feel like couches. Riding the Cyclone is something everyone should try to do before they die.

  • Paul Rivera

Fantastic! Still fantastic and such incredible fun. It still excites all and restores confidence in your ability to scream Take yourself and others to convey Island for this delightfully scary pleasure while enjoying the beach and whole park. …

  • meco mingtomo

Was an amazing ride, it's just the staff stink, dude assumed I jumped over and didn't pay and had me wait while everyone went ahead and I was super confused what he was asking, which was if I paid, which of course I did, super embarrassing,

  • A C

This ride gets a lot of merited hype and even so it’s STILL underrated! I had my doubts, especially with the ticket price, but it was worth every penny and I can’t wait to go back! It’s the absolute best rollercoaster EVER. It’s scary, it’s

  • Matthew Sansone

This was a bucket list item for me. I brissled at the $10 cost but it was totally worth it. The cars are a little tight for 2 adults but almost everyone can ride. Most older coasters are a good hill, an ok hill and a 30 second ride out to

  • jerrell battle

Wow. Now it's been about 30 years since I've been there. In my teens I'd come see my cousins almost every weekend. We would go to the beach and hang out all day. And then we would go to Coney Island it was literally across the street from

  • Thomas Shih

The Cyclone (or just Cyclone??) was my first big rollercoaster that made me comfortable with bigger coasters. It is an old woodie from the early 1900s (not the oldest operating coaster) so it has very comfortable almost couch like seats

  • Robert Leicht

A little more intense that anticipated but SO MUCH FUN! Honestly it was worth the $10. I’ve never heard my dad laugh so hard! If you are going to Coney Island, you must do 2 things... Nathan’s hot dog, and the Cyclone. I feel like once

  • Jim Mansfield

We rode the famous cyclone on a Saturday as part of our Luna Park wrist band package. It was a very fun old school rollercoaster. It is all wood with deep cushioned seats for two. You will slide around in these seats so be prepared to

  • Zarina Mehrfar

If you ever have a chance to go to Coney Island and Luna park area, you have to come to the Cyclone. It’s one of the most famous roller coasters in the world and very fun. It’s $10 per ride per person, and you can use the Luna park

  • David Menchini

The Cyclone is a legend. At almost 100 years old it is a piece of history that is a must ride for locals and tourists alike. Don’t let the age fool you, the old girl’s still got it. From start to finish, it’s a thrilling ride. More

  • Serena

I met these really cool teenagers by the cyclone, they were REALLY nice!! And they are in a choir to, so that’s cool! They let me take a photo of them. Have a VERY good life Ocean, Mischa, Noel, Ricky, Constance, and Penny!!!!

  • Anthony M

One of the best roller coasters I’ve ever been on. Really fast, lots of drops, and the seats are so cushioned they feel like a couch, which is needed when you get whipped around the turns. AWESOME ROLLER COASTER!!!! More

  • Steven Kreger

The Cyclone You are hearing from a roller coster lover Its a great ride sharp turns drops if you like the rides like I do this is a ride for you the first drop you feel the impact that it's going to be a great ride.

  • shameek marseille

I haven't ridden a coaster in years. This was great. I initially didn't want to spend the $10 per person per ride but it was a great experience. Maybe still overpriced but a great experience nonetheless

  • Alvin Ho

Classic, wonderful old wooden roller coaster! I love that the wait on the ride was very fast and reasonable. I went on a Saturday afternoon, so I’m not sure if it becomes a much longer wait at night.

  • Jacob B

I grew up riding the cyclone and to this day the thrill never fails to please. One of the only wooden roller coasters left, and the view is amazing.A must to-do if you’re visiting Brooklyn!

  • Diana Apuango

Now you have to pay just to be inside $15. If you want unlimited ride for 4 hours it's $65 . I did like the fact that is less crowded now that they charge just to be inside the park.

  • Alex Taylor

Really enjoyed this roller coaster......a lot more than I thought I would. Good airtime on some bits and it's pretty intense. Sit on the back row if you can.....best spot to ride.

  • FW

The best. Wonderful memories there with my Pop as a child. Love the respect for history, beautiful architecture, & one of a kind fun experience. Kudos for keeping this alive.

  • Joseph Micallef

Wooden old fashion coaster that’s been here since my family came off the boat from Italy. Gets refurbished after every bad storm and is safe for the most part. More

  • Ramon Kok

It's a classic and I would go again when I'm in NYC again, but I would hang on better than the first ride because I hurt my knee on the hinge of the lap bar. More

  • Ingrid

A wooden roller coaster that opened in 1927. If you are in Coney Island it is a must visit even if it is to see it. 40 minutes by subway from the Manhattan area.

  • MX Williams

This roller coaster is fun and worth the thrill if you are a thrill seeker. As a first time on the roller coaster, this was a heart stopper for me. But

Definitely worth a visit, at least for the photo! It was a discovery for me that the old slides are made of boards and metal! More
