STAR TOURS

Long ago, in a galaxy far far away... well, present day at Hollywood Studios to be more precise, you'll find 'Star Tours', a flight simulation style attraction based on the well-known Star Wars movie series. Created by both Disney imagineering and George Lucas's ILM (Industrial Light & Magic) workshop, Star Tours is a thrill-a-second journey where a seemingly harmless trip to the moon of Endor turns into a chaos.

About this Attraction Location: Echo Lake Area, Disney's Hollywood Studios Type: Simulator ride Duration: 6 minutes Fastpass: Yes Flash photography and video lighting not allowed Child Swap available Pal Mickey Interaction Best time to visit: In the first couple of hours after park opening or in the evening. Wait times may be shorter during off peak seasons. Tips & Fun Facts Take some time to explore the outdoor movie sets depicting the forest moon of Endor - complete with an Ewok treetop village and the monstrous AT-AT vehicle - outside the attraction. A nearby speeder vehicle offers a great photo opportunity. CM's can often be found here after dark waving light sabres. As this attraction can be quite bumpy, try to sit in front or middle rows of the vehicle. The back rows and end seats are the roughest areas. If you suffer from motion sickness, but would still like to see the movie, ask a cast member about 'flight checks'. This is when the ride is operated without movement, with the doors and lights open. This attraction pays homage to the director of "Star Wars" (1977); referencing his film "THX-1138" and a Mr. Egroeg Sacul - George Lucas spelled backwards. There are a total of 6 simulators in the attraction, each having a capacity of 40 guests each. Paul Reubas, also know as Pee Wee Herman is thought to have provided the voice of 'REX' the droid pilot of the starspeeder craft. Additional Information Guests must transfer from their ECV to a wheelchair and then from the wheelchair to experience the attraction. Guests must be at least 40 inches tall to ride Warning! For safety, you should be in good health and free from high blood pressure, heart, back or neck problems, motion sickness, or other conditions that could be aggravated by this adventure. Expectant mothers should not ride. Reviews Reviews & Ratings
