Star Tours – The Adventures Continue
About this ride
The pre-show area is a full StarSpeeder hangar bay with baggage droids and security scanning. Once aboard, the randomized adventure begins — each ride selects from multiple scenarios, meaning a morning ride and an evening ride will almost certainly take you to different planets with different characters. The simulator motion is aggressive — fast-moving and turbulent.
Best time to ride
Anytime — modest wait times and high replay value make Star Tours a great filler throughout the day. Ride it twice back-to-back to experience two different scenarios.
Insider tips
- Ride twice — consecutive rides will almost always give you a different adventure.
- Look for the frozen Han Solo visible in the queue — a classic Star Wars Easter egg.
- The Rebel Spy designation assigned to a random guest is shown on a screen — watch for it.
- If prone to motion sickness, Star Tours is more intense than Smugglers Run — be cautious.
What to know before you ride
- Significant motion simulator movement — fast banking, pitching, and turbulence.
- Strong motion sickness potential.
- Not suitable for guests with heart conditions or motion sensitivity.

Mateo's Take
“The randomized scenario system is still genius. Ride it twice to see two different adventures. One of Tomorrowland's best.”

Big Thunder Mountain Railroad is a mine train coaster through the red-rock canyons of the American Southwest — and the Disneyland version is the best Big Thunder Mountain in any Disney park on earth. Its island setting, surrounded by the Rivers of America, gives it a sense of scope the Orlando and Paris versions simply don't have.

Smugglers Run puts you in the cockpit of the actual Millennium Falcon and sends you on a smuggling run through hyperspace and asteroid fields. Every seat has a different role — pilot, gunner, or engineer — and how well your crew performs actually affects the experience.
