Measured by wait times, Remy’s Ratatouille Adventure is the most popular ride in Epcot. (As of this update, Guardians of the Galaxy Cosmic Rewind still uses a virtual queue.) You should expect an average wait of about 60 to 90 minutes, but this will vary greatly by time of day and day of year.

 

Where Is Remy’s Ratatouille Adventure in Epcot?

The ride is in the France Pavilion at Epcot. This is between the UK Pavilion and the Morocco Pavilion. It’s also next to the International Gateway entrance, which is where guests of the Disney Skyliner resorts and Crescent Lake resorts enter the park.

What kind of ride is it? What is it about?

Remy’s Ratatouille Adventure is a 3D trackless ride. It’s Disney World’s third trackless dark ride (Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance, Mickey & Minnie’s Runaway Railway).

You’re shrunk down to the size of a rat, and you follow Chef Remy (the rat from the film Ratatouille) on an adventure through Gusteau’s Restaurant, with the ride vehicles taking you on unpredictable twists and turns through the kitchen and dining areas.

How to Ride Remy’s Ratatouille Adventure

Remy’s Ratatouille Adventure is on Genie+ and is a good use of your first pick on that service.

Rope drop and Early Entry at Epcot is particularly interesting because the park has two entrances. The main entrance is at Future World and will have a long, long walk to Remy’s Ratatouille Adventure.

The World Showcase entrance (aka the Epcot International Gateway entrance), used by guests of the Disney Skyliner resorts and Crescent Lake resorts, is placed right next to the France Pavilion, which will house the ride.

If you’re entering the park via the International Gateway entrance then you have the option of heading to Remy’s first during Early Entry. If you’re arriving via the main entrance, Remy’s is not a good place to start Early Entry because it is so far away. (The above map reflects this well.)

Remy’s is also a part of Extended Evening Hours at Epcot, which is only available to guests of deluxe Disney resorts (and select partner resorts).

Remy’s Ratatouille Adventure Ride Experience

Remy’s is a trackless, 3D dark ride. You’ll need to wear 3D glasses during the ride. For the adventure, you shrink down to the size of a rat and go on a journey with Remy through a kitchen and dining room. You can watch a video here.

Overall it’s a very enjoyable ride with some clever effects. If you’re visiting Epcot with a toddler, this is likely to be one of your must-do rides. It might be too scary for some kids—ours went through a phase where basically any indoor dark ride scared them, and Remy’s is more intense than other dark rides.

Remy’s Ratatouille Adventure FAQ

Is Remy’s Ratatouille Adventure at Epcot Scary?

While the ride has no height requirements and is generally good for kids, it can be a bit intense and scary. Our 2-year-old is terrified of the ride.

When Did Remy’s Ratatouille Adventure open?

Remy’s Ratatouille Adventure opened on October 1, 2021 at Epcot as part of Disney World’s 50th Anniversary kickoff. The ride opened alongside a new section of the France Pavilion, including the restaurant La Crêperie de Paris.

Is this the same ride that’s in Paris?

Best we can tell, Remy’s Ratatouille Adventure is identical to Ratatouille: L'Aventure Totalement Toquée de Rémy, a ride at Walt Disney Studios Park in Disneyland Paris. I believe there may be one or two lines that have switched from French to English, but otherwise the ride seems the same.
