How to Visit

The First Ride We Ever Built

Astro Orbiter has a particular place in this park: it was the first attraction here that actually worked. Before it, Magic Parks was a very handsome collection of buildings you could walk through. After it, it was a theme park.

You climb above Tomorrowland in a rocket you steer yourself, tilting up and down as the platform turns. It is simple, it is high, and on a clear evening it is the best view of the castle in the whole park.

Good to Know

Gentle, fully seated, and open to everyone. The rockets rise and fall on your input — hold the control forward for the view, or keep low if heights are not your thing.
