    Description

    Star Tours is based on the Star Wars universe, but does not follow a storyline from a specific movie. Riders take a flight with the space liner 'Star Tours' and end up in a fight with the Dark Force. The ride is guided by the androids R2-D2 en C-3PO. The ride simulator features a randomized ride sequence which makes the ride experience different on every every re-ride.
