A flight simulator ride that takes you on a vacation trip to the Endor moon, until, of course, it all goes horribly wrong.

good simulator cant wait for star tours 2 - tyler bell

A good simulator ride, hopefully soon to be a great one after the much needed update. - Roger Sage

For a Star Wars ride it doesn't feel very 'Star Wars'. Needs an update. Outside get your kids involved in the Jedi Academy for their chance to light-sabre duel with Darth vader. - Mark Moore

Enjoyable and entertaining. I remember this from about 15 years ago and it hadn't changed, but I still got a kick out of it as an adult. - Carl Stovall

Needs an update but still fun. - Mike Burnette

Even though it is showing its age, Star Tours remains a good ride. I am not a Star Wars fan but I still found myself liking this ride. The indoor queue area is one of the best in Disney World. The ride itself is a good simulator similar to Wild Arctic at Sea World and the late Body Wars at Epcot. Unless you get motion sickness I recommend checking this ride out. Wait times for this ride aren't that long(about 30 minutes at peak times), but the line diminishes to about 5 or ten minutes after 5pm. This ride is momentarily flooded with people coming out of a recently concluded performance of Indiana Jones, so try to avoid getting in line when that happens. - Manny Barron

Dated, disappointing and short simulator ride. In need of major updating, but may be entertaining for children as the vehicle dodges a number of obsticles on your bumpy journey. Then again I am not a Star Wars fan so others may enjoy it more than I did. That said, the queing area is really interesting and well themed. - Emily G

8/10. It was fun. - Nicholas Gammon

George Lucas spent a lot of time expanding the Star Wars universe in the last decade, I think it is time for Disney to do the same for this ride. Time to update. - Raymond M
