Nearly perfect. What else can I say? The exterior is great, but could be better. If it were better, we'd have a perfect ride. The queue even surpasses the Forbidden Journey's with AAs, eyecandy, and a consistent theme everywhere! One of the best rides in the world. 10/10(I've yet to come across a perfect ride, so I give the best of the best 10/10s). - David L. Amazing theming and overall an amazing game - Andrew Dougherty This could possibly be the best ride to ever hit a theme park. Once you enter the building, C-3PO and R2-D2 and working on your ride via Starspeeder 1000. The next room shows a bunch of astromech droids, even Rex! The security droids are great fun! Then comes the best part. You put on snazzy glasses and you get 1 of 54 possible ride experiences, all guided by a C-3PO AA! If you miss this ride, you didn't go to Disney. 11/10 - Eric Cartman Is a cool ride if you ride the ride more them twice its awosome oh and get a fastpass - Giovanny Cruz Star Tours: The Adventures Continue is a great update of the original ride. The interaction with the riders is quite a novel aspect (although I might just be saying this because I was the rebel spy on our second time) and the new visuals are excellent. The random segments meant we never had the same journey twice (and we rode it five times). Queue - Most of the queue is indoors and air-conditioned. The theming is quite neat; putting you in the role of space tourists. Still (if over half an hour) a fastpass might be an idea. - Mark Williams The upgrades are great, the screens are sharper, the not knowing what comes next is great. Strongly recommend this for everyone. 8/13 - Mitchell Botwin love how the ride changes and has a degree of audience participation but nothing amazing enough for more than a 30min wait - travis traymoore Much better than the old one! Good but had higher hopes for it! 6/10 - D H George Lucas has a reputation for ruining his stuff in his fans' eyes when he tinkers with it, so when I heard he was finally getting his wish and that the Star Tours ride was being revamped I was really nervous. So I am thrilled to report that they did an AWESOME job with it. It's still a lot of fun with a goofy sense of humor, but the picture is better and I like how it mixes up the story line so the ride is a bit different each time. The best part is how it's now interactive; on one ride stormtroopers appeared on the screen and said they were looking for a rebel spy on our ship and showed a picture of an eight year old boy on our ride! Really funny, and his family got a huge kick out of it. - Heather Olson More attraction and restaurant ratings:
